scytheee_hi, just trying running ubungu 12.04 through LTSP on Pentium2 350MHz systems. After loading initrd.img they end up in stack trace and keyboard LED blinking. Running 12.04 i386 on cd shows the same. Booting from 11.10 cd is fine. Anything special on 12.04 kernels that P2 isn't supported anymore?09:25
Eimanninitrd too big?09:26
Eimannhow much ram do the systems have? 256MB?09:26
scytheee_Eimann, they have 128mb09:26
scytheee_so its to small?09:26
EimannWould be my guess, yes09:27
scytheee_hm... so 256mb is a must have, or is there another way?09:27
EimannI think you can rebuild the initrd to fit into 128MB ... can you test this by adding 128 or 256MB to one of the clients and see if that works?09:28
Eimannthat would be the easiest way ...09:28
scytheee_Eimann, too bad, I only have 64mb ones on two banks09:29
scytheee_Eimann, ah but I have one or two machines where it runs with pentium2, they have 256mb, so you should be right09:30
Eimannok great. than you should look into rebuilding the initrd I gues ...09:31
scytheee_Eimann ok, thx :)09:31
Eimannyou're welcome09:45

aboganitseliot: First of all: good morning! ;)10:01
aboganitseliot: Do you know the reason why my Quadro NVS 285 has been become *tremendously* slow? is there known 3D regression in nvidia driver?10:01
tseliotgood morning to you10:01
tseliotabogani: yes, please try nvidia-current-updates in precise-proposed10:02
aboganitseliot, Ok thanks!10:02
Cariboudoes someone know where I could find Natty's initial kernel's debuginfo symbols ?12:35
Cariboukernel is linux-image-2.6.38-8-server and is the only one which doesn't have ddebs available12:35
Caribouplus I'm not able to rebuild it from source pkg12:36
Guest13327hi12:50
Guest13327since precise my system load is around 1 when the system is idle. but with the mainline kernel everything seems ok and the system load is around 0. how i can identify what is causing the hight load when i'm using the standard ubuntu kernel?12:55
tjaaltontseliot: why not update the main package as well since it's the same major release and the current one is broken13:21
tseliottjaalton: because we update the non-updates flavours only in case of security issues13:30
tjaaltontseliot: well this is a regression caused by a late minute security update, and those fall in the sru category :)13:32
=== manjo` is now known as manjo
tjaaltonit's just not that discoverable to ask people to install another paxkage, which then might break later since it doesn't have the same abi guarantee13:37
tseliottjaalton: what if 295.49 introduces another regression?13:37
tjaaltontseliot: couuld it be worse than the current one?13:38
tjaalton-u13:39
tseliottjaalton: let's see how the testing of the -updates flavour goes in proposed, then we can probably decide14:04
tjaaltontseliot: ok14:04

stgraberheya, can we get https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/995998 pulled in the next SRU for precise? it's quite important for thin client hardware16:55

greearbSo, I managed to make a custom live-cd from 12.04 desktop, and then I turned it into a usb persistent image with Universal USB Installer.21:27
greearbNow, when I boot, I see errors relating to loop1:  (loop1): error: ext2_lookup: deleted inode referenced21:28
greearbhappens whenever I access /etc/mtab, among other things.21:28
greearbboot messages warn that something is mounting loop1 unchecked and suggests I should run fsck21:29
greearbbut 'fsck /dev/loop1' fails with IO error.21:29
greearbany ideas on what to do about this?21:30
greearbhmm, you can run e2fsck on the casper-rw file if you mount it on another computer.21:42
greearbI wonder why fsck isn't run by default when booting the live-usb image?21:43
dileksown live-cd with a custom kernel?21:47
greearbyes21:47
greearbthe upstream 3.2.whatever ubuntu kernel plus lots of my own patches..but from googling, seems corrupted casper-rw is a common issue21:48
greearbgah, maybe it's this 5 year old bug:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/12570221:59
ubot2Launchpad bug 125702 in upstart "casper-rw fs not cleanly unmounted on persistent live USB shutdown" [Medium,Invalid]21:59
