Sweetsharkhmmm, no seb128 today? I would need somebody who would upload 3.6.0~rc4-0ubuntu1. volunteers?08:49
chrisccoulsonSweetshark, is it urgent? i think i can upload it. i'll have a look later once i've done ffox / tbird if nobody else has done it09:20
Sweetsharkchrisccoulson: nah, its not that urgent, more a matter of honor. I want to release 3.6.0 on quantal in sync with upstream ;)09:26

hggdhcyphermox: good morning sir, you may want to have a look at bug 1031777 (and sorry)13:43
ubot2Launchpad bug 1031777 in network-manager "n-m does not show any wireless APs (so no auto connection)" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/103177713:43
cyphermoxhggdh: if you do sudo iwlist scan; then do the networks appear in the menu?14:09
hggdhcyphermox: yes, they do (at least now)14:10
cyphermoxok so it's probably some other kind of scanning bug. I don't think it's directly related to NM; you've probably just been lucky enough for it not to happen until now14:11
cyphermoxI'll take a look, I thought it would have been fixed by a patch we have now in wpasupplicant14:12
hggdhcyphermox: I now disconnected from the wireless (I am under a wired connection), and all APs vanished, except the one I was using14:12
cyphermoxok14:12
cyphermoxsounds a huge lot like either wl is again broken, or the patch doesn't do all the right things14:12
hggdhcyphermox: running iwlist again does not show the other APs14:12
hggdhyep14:13
cyphermoxif you run it twice I bet it would14:13
cyphermoxactually, perhaps not14:13
cyphermoxthe problem is also that iwlist scan is not reliable14:13
hggdhheh14:13
cyphermoxsuod iw dev wlan0 scan would make it work more reliably14:13
cyphermoxbut wl will not respond if scan requests happen too frequently14:14
hggdhstill no APs shown14:15
cyphermoxhggdh: would you mind trying to downgrade to the previous version, see if it still behaves the same? there hasn't been changes to wifi code in NM recently; we should probably make sure it's not some other thing, like a new kernel version or new version of the broadcom drivers14:17
hggdhcyphermox: will try, will see if they still exist in the archives14:18
cyphermoxif not you can get it from launchpad, just a second14:19
cyphermoxhggdh: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/network-manager/0.9.6.0~git201207161259.00297f4-0ubuntu2 ; there are no arch: all packages so you can take them all directly from the relevant architecture, and you want all of the packages except the -dev ones14:21
cyphermox(unless you installed the -dev ones, of course)14:21
hggdhcyphermox: doing it now14:21
hggdhbrb14:25
hggdhcyphermox: another thing I noticed (I do not know for how long it is happening, I am usually wired at home): when I boot & login, the n-m indicator only has 4 entries14:28
hggdhEnable Networking, Enable wireless, Connection Information, and Edit connections14:28
hggdhit takes a while for it to have all other entries (like: wired: connected, etc)14:29
dupondjeCould anyone have a look @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/remmina/+bug/980766 ?14:44
ubot2Ubuntu bug 980766 in remmina "Remmina fullscreen jumps between workspaces" [Undecided,Confirmed]14:44
dupondjeand give me an idea where to start looking :)14:44
dupondjesee also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/remmina/+bug/99998514:44
ubot2Ubuntu bug 999985 in remmina "remmina goes full-screen on the wrong monitor" [Undecided,Confirmed]14:44
hggdhcyphermox: OK. Time passed, and I still do not see anything else on the n-m indicator14:48
cyphermoxwith the old version?14:48
hggdhcyphermox: yes14:48
hggdhcyphermox: now I cannot even select a hidden network, or a new wireless connection14:49
hggdhso I guess I am missing something else to be installed14:49
cyphermoxno14:49
cyphermoxunless you mean it's greyed out?14:49
cyphermoxalso if you revert NM live without rebooting you might want to restart nm-applet14:50
cyphermoxbut for the wireless items not showing up I'd file a bug against linux14:50
cyphermoxhggdh: It would help me a lot too if you could include debug logs from wpasupplicant to that too, but you'll need to edit /usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service to add -dd to the parameters used to start wpasupplicant14:53
hggdhcyphermox: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1123544/15:06
hggdh(with old n-m)15:06
cyphermoxfun15:07
hggdhheh. So the larger buffer never gets larger?15:07
hggdhcyphermox: full wpa_sup log for this boot (so far): http://paste.ubuntu.com/1123557/15:11
cyphermoxthanks15:13
cyphermoxso why is this only happening now; the wpasupplicant change happened at least a month ago15:13
cyphermoxfor your last upgrade, were there lots of other packages than NM?15:14
hggdhyes, there were15:22
hggdhinstalled on July 0915:23
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
cyphermoxhggdh: file a bug for it; I can't find any indication it would be an issue in NetworkManager or wpasupplicant, maybe something changed in the driver recently. Wouldn't be the first time they bomb it15:45
cyphermoxhggdh: look what I found: http://pof.eslack.org/2012/05/23/why-broadcom-80211-linux-sta-driver-sucks-and-how-to-fix-it/15:49
cyphermoxI can possibly make magic15:50
* hggdh loves magic15:53
hggdhcyphermox: but notice the post talks about *not* getting scan results. We are getting them here, but the buffer seems to be too small15:55
hggdh(ans only increases from 8k to 8k...)15:56
cyphermoxyou're not, according to the logs15:56
cyphermoxhggdh: I have a fix; I'll revert that wpasupplicant patch to special case the driver; should make things work slower but work15:57
bjfrunning quantal, window decorations just disappeared. compiz-decorator doesn't exist. how do i get them back ?16:00
robrubjf, log out and log back in?16:18
bjfrobru: well, yes, i'm sure that would work but i'd loose all the connections i have16:20
cyphermoxhggdh: upgrade wpa when you can16:52
hggdhcyphermox: like as soon as it pops up :-)16:53
cyphermoxhggdh: yeah, should be a matter of minutes17:17
mterrykenvandine, are more of the online-accounts pkgs uploaded yet?  I've got some cycles to review17:57
kenvandinemterry, they are in source NEW17:59
kenvandinemterry gnome-control-center-signon and signon-keyring-extension17:59
mterrykenvandine, ah...  so it's didrocks's fault.  :)17:59
mterryhuh, never happened to use https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+queue before.  nice18:00
mterrykenvandine, I can review from NEW.  thanks!18:01
kenvandinemterry, thx!18:01
kenvandinemterry, tests are disabled, but we'll try to fix that up before they go to main18:02
kenvandinemardy is going to mock out the keyring stuff to make it easier to run them in the package build18:02
mterryA single tear falls from my eyes18:02
kenvandinemterry, i did fix libaccounts-glib and libsignon-glib though18:03
kenvandineso those tests run now :)18:03
mterrykenvandine, awesome, you're the best18:03
kenvandinemterry, no... you are :)18:03
kenvandinehehe18:03
mterrybuttering me up will not make these MIRs go better  :)18:03
mterrykenvandine, ah, I see the other issues were fixed too (python3, dh9).  Awesome, I will mark fix committed then18:04
kenvandineyeah18:05
kenvandinethose two should be good to go18:05
hggdhcyphermox: it is working \o/18:34
cyphermoxcool18:36
cyphermoxhggdh: I'll have something for you to test later, depending on whether you're seeing delays in getting connected on boot or on suspend/resume18:37
hggdhcyphermox: I do not do suspend resume (does not work with my laptop), but it looked like I was connected quite fast18:38
cyphermoxok, then maybe we can just pass on that18:38
cyphermoxbut I'd like to switch the broadcom driver to use a different API; might work better and avoid those cases where you don't see the networks in nm-applet18:39
