jbichasmartboyhw: good morning02:56
smartboyhwjbicha: Good morning. You said you want a QA Team isn't it in Ubuntu Forums??02:56
jbichayes, we need several people that enjoy testing things to find out what needs fixing02:59
smartboyhwjbicha: I enjoy testing:)03:00
jbicha...especially during the milestone testing weeks03:00
jbichahave you ever done milestone testing?03:00
smartboyhwjbicha: Did 3 times at least03:00
jbichacool03:01

jbichahave you ever used bzr before?03:15
smartboyhwjbicha: Yes and did. I just don't know how to make the iso build script working03:17
jbichado you have a ubuntu desktop quantal iso already downloaded?03:19
smartboyhwOH no. Let me download one03:19
jbichahttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/03:20
smartboyhwjbicha: I will download the official beta 1, it's better03:20
jbichazsync is awesome for keeping those up to date03:20
jbichahttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage03:20
smartboyhwOK let me download it first. Shouldn't take more than 10 min03:21
jbichaooh you have faster internet than me03:21
smartboyhwjbicha: And I'm only using my home wifi:)03:22
smartboyhwI don't know why I got 10 times slower speeds at 12.0403:22
smartboyhw3 minutes 35 seconds remaining03:25
smartboyhwjbicha: I'm zsync-ing now03:31
smartboyhwjbicha: PING I've finished zsync03:35
smartboyhwSo what to do?03:35
jbichaok, follow the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12224048&postcount=4903:37
jbichain the customize line you have to tell it where your Ubuntu iso is03:37
smartboyhwSorry got things like umount: work-amd64/edit/proc: not found03:38
smartboyhwumount: work-amd64/edit/sys: not found03:38
smartboyhwumount: work-amd64/edit/dev: not found03:38
smartboyhwumount: work-amd64/edit/dev/pts: not found03:38
smartboyhwumount: work-amd64/mnt: not found03:38
smartboyhw in the clean step03:38
smartboyhwjbicha: Then !!?!??!03:39
jbichathose errors should be harmless03:39
smartboyhwOh OK03:39
smartboyhwTrying now:)03:41
smartboyhwBuilding:)03:42
jbichaok on my computer it takes about an hour to build, not counting downloading all the packages03:43
smartboyhwWOW WOW WOW03:43
smartboyhwI will leave down the results after I went playing badminton at 2-3 pm then :) (It's 11:43 AM here)03:43
jbichaIt's 11:43 PM here :)03:44
smartboyhwOh that is 12 hours time difference03:44
smartboyhwMaybe I'll just leave down the results in the Ubuntu GNOME Remix Developer Snapshot thread in Ubuntu Forums03:45
jbichaby the way gdm is broken with that script, you can use username ubuntu to login (no password)03:46
smartboyhwOh OK03:46
smartboyhwjbicha: After you wake up ping me12:19
jbichagood evening!12:22
smartboyhwgood evening12:22
smartboyhwI finished building amd6412:22
jbichacool12:25
smartboyhwBut then I abruptly cut i38612:25
jbichaplease file bugs if you see things that aren't right12:25
smartboyhwSo I need to do it again12:25
jbichaok, if you interrupt the build, you need to run the clean command12:26
smartboyhwOK12:26
smartboyhwNow rebuilding the i386 build now jbicha:)12:31
jbichathe two should be pretty similar12:33
smartboyhwYep I think12:34
smartboyhwjbicha: Finished i386 build13:44
smartboyhw:)13:49
smartboyhwjbicha: So?14:07
jbichawell being able to build the latest builds is useful for verifying whether bugs are fixed or not, and whether there are new bugs14:10
smartboyhwGood I will run the build in a VM now:)14:11
jbichaI think I'm going to do a second alpha after all but I want to get bug 1047828 fixed & figure out how to get gdm autologin working correctly14:12
ubot5Launchpad bug 1047828 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "enable gnome-shell to run with software rendering (llvmpipe)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/104782814:12
smartboyhwYes that is a big prob14:12
jbichaautologin didn't actually work for the alpha either but I hacked it to work there14:13
smartboyhw:)14:13
smartboyhwjbicha: PING14:28
smartboyhwThe new build has a "Installer encountered an unrecoverable error"14:28
smartboyhwUh oh14:28
jbichasmartboyhw: just ask your question, you don't have to ping me each time14:28
jbicharight, that's the problem I was telling you about, hit ok or whatever and log in with username ubuntu & no password14:29
smartboyhwOH alright14:30
smartboyhwWell ubuntu and no passwd then the login session doesn't response14:31
jbichaare you using virtualbox or what?14:32
smartboyhwjbicha: Virtualbox14:32
jbichaok, you can try Ctrl+F1 to get to a virtual terminal14:32
jbichasudo service gdm restart14:32
smartboyhwNo doesn't work14:32
smartboyhwNo response14:32
jbichasorry, RightCtrl+F114:33
smartboyhwAh OK14:33
jbichaand it's RightCtrl+F7 usually to get back to the graphical interface although I think restarting gdm/lightdm will switch you there automatically14:33
smartboyhwYeah it works14:33
smartboyhwNow I'm installing14:34
jbichaafter installing you could even try llvmpipe by commenting out llvmpipe in the filename listed in the bug report14:36
smartboyhwOK14:36
smartboyhwjbicha: I think the build worked, it can install15:05
smartboyhwSo then what is the llvmpipe bug and how to replicate it?15:07
jbichasmartboyhw: do you get GNOME Shell or GNOME Classic when you log in?15:11
smartboyhwYes I get it15:12
jbichawhich?15:12
smartboyhwWorks completely good15:12
smartboyhwThough I don't know if it is shell or classic15:12
jbichawhat does it say in the top left corner?15:12
smartboyhwApplications and places15:12
jbichathat's GNOME Classic, GNOME Shell says Activities15:12
smartboyhwOK15:13
jbichayou can try llvmpipe by editing  /usr/share/gnome-session/hardware-compatibility15:13
jbichaand putting a # in front of -llvmpipe, the # comments out the line so it's ignored by the computer15:13
jbichaand then you'll need to restart gdm or you can restart your computer15:14
smartboyhwOK I did, then save?15:14
jbichayes15:14
smartboyhwjbicha: Rebooted and now it goes to GNOME shell15:17
smartboyhwworks I think15:17
jbichaon the other hand, we shouldn't need llvmpipe in virtualbox, there's a bug on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ReleaseNotes/1210Alpha2 about that15:18
smartboyhwOh alright15:19
smartboyhwSo er?15:19
smartboyhwjbicha: I think I should upload the links for download of the new build:)15:24
jbichano, we're not ready to release this yet since autologin definitely needs to work15:40
smartboyhwI do agree:)15:40
darkxstjbicha, what is the autologin issue?22:21
jbichadarkxst: bug 1046630 but that patch isn't working here22:35
ubot5Launchpad bug 1046630 in casper (Ubuntu) "casper doesn't configure GDM autologin correctly" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/104663022:35
jbichafor the alpha I cheated and edited that file manually but that gives users a prompt when updating which isn't nice22:36
darkxstis it only supposed to update on first boot?22:52
darkxstor is it if the user has customised the auto login?22:53
darkxstif first boot, then:22:54
darkxstif ! `grep -qs 'Enabling automatic login' $GDMCustomFile` ; then22:54
jbichacasper (in the live session) is supposed to magically update /etc/gdm/custom.conf to set GDM to autologin the ubuntu user22:54
darkxstcould work22:54
darkxstand include that comment in the sed command, so it gets removed22:57
darkxstor you could just write an arbitrary comment in there22:57
darkxstand then grep for that22:58
darkxstsomething like this http://pastebin.com/30XyERYT23:01
darkxstsorry missed a backslash -> http://pastebin.com/J3dUmKbL23:04
darkxstjbicha, your patch was wrong anyway23:18
darkxst$USERNAME, wont get replaced since its inside the quotes23:19
jbichayup, I just figured that out23:21
jbichaI'm rebuilding with "" instead but I don't know if that will be enough23:21
darkxstwell it will fix the grep match atleast23:25
jbichayeah, this is what I currently get: http://i.imgur.com/CsuI0.png hoping the rebuild works23:30
darkxstwell it will if that error was due to the autologin settings be missing (which they would have been!)23:54
darkxstanyway I attached a better patch to that bug23:54
