RedSingularityhggdh: u know the time beta 2 is officially released today?04:05
RedSingularitywell its the 29th here in NY...04:06
RedSingularityETA maybe with UTC?04:06
gemaRedSingularity: it may be any time today, but I wouldn't hold my breath, it'll probably be afternoon / evening UTC time08:21
Davieyjibel: Hola, i understand you spoke to stgraber about automating the jenkins->iso tracker testig results feeding?08:25
jibelDaviey, morning08:44
Davieyjibel: You call this morning? :)08:44
jibelDaviey, well, I asked for documentation and he pasted a code sample08:45
jibelbut that's pretty simple and it is self-documented code :)08:45
DavieyYeah, i looked at it last night08:45
DavieyI thought about doing it for the server iso's.. but then wondered if you were doing it for all?08:46
jibelDaviey, if someone does it, it will work for everything. build number and jenkins jobs are flavor and variant agnostics08:47
jibeleverything = all type of iso testing08:48
Davieyjibel: Is that a task you on your roadmap?08:48
jibelDaviey, It's on QA's todo since we started automated tests, not on mine specifically. It's low priority.08:49
DavieyWouldn't the time saved in copying the results, making it a higher priority ?08:50
jibelIt would, if we reported daily results to the tracker. But for milestone testing that's not much. For EC2 that would help08:53
Davieyjibel: Okay, do you know if there is scheduled time for it to be done?09:01
jibelgema, ^ do we want to do that before the new test harness is available ?09:02
jibelgema, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/96806109:10
gemaDaviey: we are in the process of moving to a new reporting format09:21
gemaDaviey: that is lava compatible09:21
gemaDaviey: balloons, the tracker and our new automation harness will accept it09:21
gemaDaviey: but there are some infrastructure issues involved, such as how to register test cases on the tracker, how to reflect results from testing packages (not isos) in the tracker09:22
gemaDaviey: so this is something that is not going to happen for P, but for Q09:22
gemaDaviey: stgraber told us that it is easy for him to read the lava format, so not it is a matter of discussing the details during UDS and agreeing on timeframe for this09:23
gemas/so not/so now09:23
Davieygema: ok09:37
Davieygema: Is your test harness using real metal, or virtualisation?09:37
gemaboth09:38
gemaand ec2 and canonistack09:38
gemaand anything you feel like writing a plugin for :)09:38
Davieygema: What are you using to manage this?09:38
gemaDaviey: launchpad? what do you mean?09:38
gemaDaviey: it is not in any blueprint yet because we are working on a simple proof of concept for UDS, after that, we'll have a blueprint to extend it during Q09:39
Davieygema: What does the plug-in fit into?09:39
DavieyWhat are you using to provision bare metal09:39
Daviey?09:39
gemaDaviey: we will be using cobbler, likely09:39
gemaDaviey: we are working on provisioning KVM first, though09:40
Davieygema: ok09:40
gemaDaviey: since we only have two devs working on it09:40
Davieysuperduper. :)09:41
alouriegema: to provision kvm, you could use ovirt :-)09:57
* alourie has a disclaimer: he is speaking as an involved party09:58
gemaalourie: you can always write a plugin for ovirt if you want in the future, there will be nothing stopping you from doing that ;)10:07
alouriegema: true :-), but ovirt is already a pretty huge animal that handles kvm-based VMs :-)10:09
alouriethat's its purpose in life10:09
gemaalourie: then you keep using ovirt, no problem!10:39

jibelbdmurray, good morning12:34
jibelbdmurray, have you seen lot of bugs with similar symptoms https://launchpad.net/bugs/96629412:35
jibelbdmurray, ubiquity doesn't switch from user setup to webcam, then runs forever consuming cpu and memory until the system dies12:36
jibelDaviey, ec2 are not on the tracker ?12:39
jibelgema, does cheese runs on the machine with the webcam isseu ?12:58
jibel*issue12:58
=== bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_
jibelgema, the problem is not new apparently, users reported the problem back in december13:00
* gema goes check cheese13:01
gemajibel: it hangs too13:14
jibelgema, ok cool, not ubiquity's fault. gst or kernel13:15
gemajibel: yeah, that is what we determined yesterday13:15
stgraberyay, one less bug on my list :)13:16
stgraberthat one was getting a bit annoying as I don't have any hardware with the issue and couldn't find anything wrong in ubi-webcam13:16
gemastgraber: I would have shipped the machine to you13:17
gema:)13:17
gemathe machine is completely useless, I am going to install with alternate13:19
jibelgema, can you comment on the report please. We'll move to gst, it's the next layer on the list I think13:19
gemajib13:20
gemajibel: ok13:20

roadmrballoons: on the relocation of the checkbox-qt-service binary, here's the patch I think may solve it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/905661/14:22
roadmrballoons: I think you'd have to rename the service altogether to avoid clashing with stock checkbox14:22
bdmurraystgraber: is there some way to blacklist webcams and skip that part?14:50
stgraberbdmurray: currently the easiest way is to just remove /usr/lib/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-webcam.py14:50
stgraberbdmurray: blacklisting won't be the right fix anyway as chesse and anything else using gstreamer to access the webcam will get stuck in the same bug14:51
bdmurraysure it isn't the right fix but will whatever the underlying bug is get fixed by the final release?14:52
=== Ursinha_ is now known as Guest92471
stgraberbdmurray: I certainly hope so because we don't even know exactly what to blacklist at this point :)15:43
