| Noskcaj | can anyone testing kubuntu(especially in NSW) keep an eye out for these two bugs 1066225 and 1066223 | 05:28 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1066225 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "encript home folder needs to be checkbox not radio button" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1066225 | 05:28 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1066223 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "kde ubiquity detects Sydney timezone but says Adelaide" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1066223 | 05:28 |
| Noskcaj | Why does testdrive show ubuntu dvd even though its been cancelled | 05:30 |
| Noskcaj | i think | 05:31 |
| Noskcaj | is it a bug thhat ubuntu still gives the option to encript your home folder after you have encripted the whole drive? | 05:55 |
| Noskcaj | *that | 06:31 |
| njin | hallo just reproduced bug 1065034 (or at least a similar error in syslog) in ubiquity 2.12.11 where it has to be fixed, do you suggest to reopen the report ? | 12:50 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1065034 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Quantal) "'ubuntu ubiquity: umount: /tmp/tmp.h3NCLhoxSh: not mounted' during a Reinstall attempt on a previously manually partioned vm installation" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1065034 | 12:50 |
| skaet | plars, jibel, psivaa - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1066173 <- has anyone else seen this? | 14:25 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1066173 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "whole disk install puts grub in wrong place" [Undecided,New] | 14:25 |
| jibel | Good morning skaet! | 14:59 |
| jibel | how are you? | 14:59 |
| skaet | good morning jibel. :) | 14:59 |
| skaet | bien. ca va? | 14:59 |
| jibel | skaet, I'm pretty good thanks. Heavy rain this afternoon, perfect weather for some iso testing :) | 15:01 |
| silverarrow | hi | 15:01 |
| jibel | skaet, So, regarding 1066173 I confirm grub goes to rescue mode when the external drive is unplugged | 15:01 |
| silverarrow | nothing much here, but clear skies | 15:02 |
| jibel | now I don't know what's the expected behavior | 15:02 |
| skaet | glad to hear there's rain. jibel - welcoming your testing. :) | 15:02 |
| skaet | thanks for confirming. Not sure on this one either. | 15:03 |
| skaet | possibly w? | 15:04 |
| jibel | I'll add a comment on the report | 15:04 |
| skaet | possibly worth asking in the #ubuntu-installer channel and see if someone there has some thoughts? | 15:04 |
| * skaet got trackpad glitch when hitting return on prior post :P | 15:05 | |
| skaet | thanks jibel. | 15:05 |
| jibel | skaet, yw :) | 15:05 |
| plars | balloons: btw, I forgot to mention, there's an error in this testcase: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1405/info | 16:31 |
| plars | balloons: that line "netstat 127.0.0.1 25" should be telnet, not netstat | 16:31 |
| phillw | balloons: plars http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1405/info has been corrected. | 17:02 |
| plars | thanks phillw | 17:04 |
| silverarrow | is there any hope for improvement on the ppc iso? | 17:22 |
| silverarrow | ubuntu is really good when you get it to work | 17:25 |
| nm_geo | I am installing powerpc Lubuntu right now on my G4 | 17:26 |
| silverarrow | what G4? | 17:27 |
| silverarrow | I have the last iBook, 1.42GHz and 1.5GB RAM | 17:27 |
| silverarrow | which is G4 I mean | 17:28 |
| nm_geo | Titanium 2002 1ghz 1 GB PowerBook radeon AT graphics | 17:28 |
| nm_geo | you have radeon graphics? | 17:28 |
| silverarrow | I have someone who are offering me a quad G5, but it is rather large and all the issues with ppc | 17:29 |
| silverarrow | yes, radeon | 17:29 |
| nm_geo | cool | 17:29 |
| nm_geo | I do it with USB prepared with dd | 17:29 |
| nm_geo | You can use CD as well the key is getting to live session | 17:30 |
| silverarrow | yeah, I used CD | 17:30 |
| silverarrow | and I had to use live radeon.something.something | 17:31 |
| nm_geo | Here is the yaboot kernel command that works here | 17:31 |
| nm_geo | live video=radeonfb:1024x786-32@60 | 17:31 |
| silverarrow | yes that one | 17:31 |
| nm_geo | it is working I am about 15 minutes from installation | 17:32 |
| silverarrow | in 12.04 it was missing b43 drivers that halted the boot stage | 17:32 |
| nm_geo | yeah fortunately mine is agere | 17:33 |
| silverarrow | I have odd troubles in quantal | 17:33 |
| silverarrow | no alsamixer | 17:33 |
| silverarrow | I have made a mess of it, might have to reinstall the whole thing | 17:33 |
| nm_geo | I also have a b43 issue so I keep the firmware on a USB to install to my live sessions | 17:34 |
| silverarrow | how do you go about that? I should do that | 17:34 |
| nm_geo | on a Dell | 17:34 |
| nm_geo | well it requires a persistent USB | 17:34 |
| silverarrow | hmm. I have a regular usb | 17:34 |
| silverarrow | probably rather laid back | 17:35 |
| nm_geo | I have yet to get a good persistent USB built for my ppc iso | 17:35 |
| silverarrow | could you burn the packages on CD? | 17:36 |
| nm_geo | well you have got to get the firmware installed to the /lib/firmware folder with a persistent USB plugged in yes you can might get that with UCK or some other method | 17:37 |
| silverarrow | I have made a mess of usb install, so I often stick to CD when I can | 17:37 |
| nm_geo | I understand I am just cheap :) | 17:38 |
| silverarrow | so it`s not enough transfering the packages to a usb and let intaller take care of it+ | 17:38 |
| nm_geo | no they would need to be locate in the /lib/firmware folder that is why a persistent USB is needed | 17:40 |
| nm_geo | located | 17:40 |
| silverarrow | I shall have to look in to that | 17:40 |
| nm_geo | then you can reboot an get the wifi working | 17:40 |
| silverarrow | my usb wireless is acting up with drivers too | 17:41 |
| nm_geo | yeah you may need b43 legacy firmware | 17:42 |
| silverarrow | on the internal wireless, which is quite good on the old G4 | 17:43 |
| nm_geo | You are correct when you say it looks good on G4 when you get it woring | 17:43 |
| silverarrow | the usb ones are rlt8187, driver bug | 17:43 |
| silverarrow | did you choose lubuntu or ubuntu? | 17:44 |
| nm_geo | oh i see you are using external usb dongle | 17:44 |
| silverarrow | an extra external usb has often been a saver, but not this time | 17:45 |
| nm_geo | Lubuntu is the only desktop going forward as I know it | 17:45 |
| silverarrow | and I share my network with the neighbors upstairs, and the moden is just inside their door, so cumbersome to access | 17:45 |
| silverarrow | lxde is working nicely | 17:46 |
| nm_geo | yes sometimes I even convert my DE to full lxde | 17:46 |
| silverarrow | the later G4 and G5 probably handle Unity all fine | 17:46 |
| phillw | nm_geo: you got a pass for ppc iso! Congrats! | 17:47 |
| nm_geo | probably but going forward I think on Lubuntu will be ppc | 17:47 |
| nm_geo | yeah i am 5 minutes from full install | 17:48 |
| silverarrow | I chose lubuntu because of the mplayer and gecko setup, but now that is all ruined | 17:48 |
| nm_geo | Well I am on the qa-lunbtu team so i test them primarily | 17:49 |
| silverarrow | nm_geo: you are probably right, for some ppc models lxde is probably the best | 17:49 |
| nm_geo | lubuntu | 17:49 |
| phillw | silverarrow: applications can be looked into, just getting ppc to install has been a major stumbling block since ~ Alpha 3 | 17:50 |
| nm_geo | Well it keep my memory at about 150MIB idling | 17:50 |
| silverarrow | phillw: yes, and I understand | 17:50 |
| nm_geo | BRB checking my full install now | 17:50 |
| silverarrow | one thing which works very nicely on my G4 is suspend and hibernate | 17:51 |
| silverarrow | first time I have no trouble with it | 17:51 |
| silverarrow | I wonder if the key is a large swap | 17:52 |
| silverarrow | at least 1GB even on smaller computers | 17:52 |
| phillw | bbs, dinner is calling! | 17:53 |
| nm_geo | main issues right now are kernel graphic problems | 17:53 |
| silverarrow | I understand | 17:54 |
| nm_geo | eat well phillw | 17:54 |
| silverarrow | radeon graphic card is probably all bypassed | 17:54 |
| silverarrow | phillw: not too much !! | 17:54 |
| silverarrow | ;- ) | 17:54 |
| nm_geo | success the entire drive install is working on Lubuntu ppc | 17:55 |
| silverarrow | nm_geo: is there a chance to get close to graphic hardware acceleration on the radeon drivers? | 17:55 |
| silverarrow | congratulations ! | 17:55 |
| nm_geo | yeah I wish we were able to get the nvidia problems ironed out | 17:56 |
| silverarrow | live video=radeonfb:1024x786-32@60 should work on all radeon models I think | 17:56 |
| nm_geo | I agree but there are some nvidia graphics that are tougher | 17:57 |
| silverarrow | I see | 17:58 |
| nm_geo | Updating the qa-tracker be right back again | 17:58 |

| jmarsden | Has anyone else tested the Ubuntu Server PPC Quantal Final image? It installs but I'm seeing a kernel panic when booting from the hard disk. Now installing the older Beta2 image to verify that it worked back then... | 21:14 |
| silverarrow | jmarsden: I don`t know, I haven`t heard anything. IBM new hardware get`s lot of attention in the server sector | 21:34 |
| jmarsden | silverarrow: OK. I'm testing on ancient hardware (Powerbook G4 laptop), but still... Beta2 worked, Final fails... something is wrong, I think. | 21:36 |
| skaet | infinity, ^ any data points? | 21:38 |
| kanliot | yeah jmarsden some new killer bug manages to show at this date | 21:40 |
| jmarsden | kanliot: are you seeing the same problem on PPC hardware? | 21:40 |
| kanliot | nope just a bystander :) | 21:41 |
| jmarsden | OK. I'll verify md5sums on the ISO I downloaded and on the CD-R I burned, then retest... | 21:41 |
| silverarrow | I am on an iBook G4, and server is about the same? | 21:46 |
| silverarrow | killer bug doesn`t sound nice | 21:47 |
| jmarsden | silverarrow: Have you tested any of the Quantal Final images on your iBoot G4? Do they install and run for you? | 21:48 |
| silverarrow | I am downloading now | 21:49 |
| silverarrow | ยจ | 21:49 |
| silverarrow | because you mentioned this | 21:50 |
| jmarsden | silverarrow: OK, thanks :) | 21:50 |
| phillw | jmarsden: nm_geo has had lubuntu desktop running okay today. | 21:50 |
| jmarsden | My md5sums check out fine, retesting the install now. | 21:50 |
| silverarrow | daily from the 12 will do? | 21:51 |
| silverarrow | 12. of october I mean | 21:52 |
| jmarsden | silverarrow: I don't know, I didn't test yesterday :) Can you zync it up to the current "Final" image? | 21:52 |
| jmarsden | *zsync | 21:52 |
| silverarrow | I can, however it is the current daily? | 21:56 |
| jmarsden | silverarrow: As far as I know, yes. The QA tracker links to it from http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/240/builds/25730/downloads | 21:57 |
| jmarsden | which says zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/20121013/quantal-server-powerpc.iso.zsync | 21:58 |
| silverarrow | ok, I will use that link | 22:01 |
| silverarrow | putting out a benchmark on a saturday | 22:04 |
| jmarsden | http://imagebin.org/231869 is a bad cellphone camera "screenshot" of the kernel panic I am seeing | 22:34 |
| infinity | skaet: No clue, sorry, I don't own any powerbooks to test on. | 23:05 |
| jmarsden | Is there a wiki page or similar describing good ways to report "kernel panic at boot" type of issues? | 23:12 |
