hyperairis ubuntu's default io scheduler now deadline?04:28
* hyperair is using a xorg-edgers kernel which is set to deadline by default.04:28
RAOFhyperair: Looks like it.04:37
georgeph1does anybody know why wireless messes up dmesg 04:38
* hyperair wonders why04:38
georgeph1any kernel gurus in here04:38
hyperairby "messes up dmesg" do you mean spews a lot of crap?04:38
georgeph1hyperair...yea..so much that you lose a lot of the dmesg info prior to all that endless wireless stuff04:39
hyperairi get that too.. well it's just iwl being verbose04:39
georgeph1hyperair...does dmesg only have a fixed buffer length for storing info04:39
hyperairyes it does.04:40
georgeph1hyperair...so with all that wireless junk..it just loses the preceding dmesg info04:40
hyperairthink about it, linux servers can go on and on for years. if dmesg stored everything from bootup, it would spend all its memory just storing kernel log messages.04:40
hyperaireh well i think you're lucky to be worrying about wifi being verbose. ¬_¬04:40
hyperair[624797.517860] CPU2: Package power limit notification (total events = 370006)04:41
hyperair[624797.517862] CPU3: Package power limit notification (total events = 370018)04:41
hyperair[624797.517880] CPU1: Package power limit notification (total events = 370008)04:41
hyperair[624797.517881] CPU0: Package power limit notification (total events = 370008)04:41
hyperairi get that instead.04:41
hyperaira *lot* of them.04:41
georgeph1hyperair...well i need to see dmesg quite often...to see what is being allocated where...and i lose all that info because of the massive wireless stuff04:41
hyperairthen don't look at dmesg.04:41
hyperairlook at kern.log04:41
georgeph1hyperair...is there any way to just squelch the neverending wireless data04:42
hyperairno idea.04:42
georgeph1hyperair...the only fix i have right now..is to keep rebooting when i need dmesg info...and that is not a good solution04:42
hyperair12:41:44 <hyperair> look at kern.log04:43
hyperaireverything's stored there.04:43
RAOFgeorgeph1: dmesg is logged to /var/log/kern.log (among other places), and *that'll* store everything since bootup.04:43
hyperairgood god, rebooting when dmesg info is needed..04:43
georgeph1hyperair...ok...i will look into that..but i also would like to see about a mechanism to squelch that neverending wireless info04:43
* hyperair jumps off a cliff04:43
hyperairi don't know, there's probably some CONFIG_something that you can disable04:44
hyperairor some module option somewhere04:44
hyperairthat i don't know about04:44
georgeph1hyperair...this wireless stuff is somewhat of a pain on any kernel...in windows...i find that the printer driver interferes with the wireless driver and i start losing a lot of data in ping04:45
georgeph1hyperair...so when i need internet access i have to just turn the printer off and not load its driver04:46
hyperairgeorgeph1: can you stop putting this large amount of dots in each sentence?04:47
hyperairwith each successive string of dots i see, i get this much closer to reaching through my monitor and strangling you.04:47
hyperairalso, i don't give a damn about windows.04:47
georgeph1hyperair...well you would have a difficult time because i wouldn't mind unloading this colt45 up your ass04:48
hyperairi'll pass. why don't you try it on yourself first?04:48
georgeph1hyperair..some people believe in christianity...but i believe in momenum of a bullet when necessary04:49
hyperairi believe in /ignore.04:49
rio21509bullet??? we are talking about kernel on a free chat... calm down guys04:50
ohsixthreats of violence are offtopic in the civilized world (and on freenode)04:50
hyperairhmm was it a freenode policy? i thought it was an ubuntu thing.04:52
ohsixit would be contrary to the ubuntu code of conduct too, but that doesn't get you off the network04:52
georgeph1ohsix...well i am an anarchist and all i can say is if your morals/ethics/laws/code of conduct interferes with self defense...you can go to hell with it04:54
ohsixyou can fuck off to whatever island where shooting people is ok then04:54
ohsixbut you live in a socienty04:55
hyperairnow now, ohsix, fuck is not an acceptable word on an ubuntu channel.04:55
hyperair(i was tempted too)04:55
ohsixi'll note that you're hyper primed for "self defense", to which you answer with a bullet; to words on the internet, on irc04:56
ohsixand he just said your manner was annoying04:56
georgeph1ohsix i think you should learn how to read and note he threatened to strangle me first. that is enough for me to blow him away and never look back05:02
ohsixyea, no05:02
ohsixhis reaction is reasonable05:02
ohsixand on order with your behaviour05:02
ohsixyours is completely insane05:02
georgeph1ohsix well around here his reaction will get him put in an early grave and i would not mind taking a shit on it afterwards05:03
ohsixlike i said, you're welcome to do that, but not in a society; being an anarchist isn't an excuse to act like that either05:03
ohsixbut i suspect that behaviour is exactly why you went out of your way to identify yourself immediately05:04
* hyperair meant it to be a funny figure of speech, considering you can't really pass through a computer monitor. looks like it didn't work.05:06
ohsixeven if you were serious, you didn't threaten mortal harm for what amounts to slight social adjustment, then say that you can shoot anyone because of your beliefs and nothing else05:07
georgeph1ohsix..you can go fuck yourself too because you won't make a molehill out of a mountain around here with your slick-talk shit05:09
ohsixheh, projecting his unacceptable behaviour onto my reaction to it, gg05:10
hyperairoh well, at least it's in the past now.05:10
ohsixhah, he's in houston texas05:12
* hyperair wonders if they still wave guns around all the time there.05:13
ohsixthey're not that crazy05:13
ohsixthat's survivalist/nwo/aryan nation crazy05:14
hyperairhaha05:14

AlanBellhi, can someone help me read this stack trace of kvm falling over? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1427352/11:21
AlanBellit came back fine after a reboot, but I would like to know how to search for a known issue, or if this points to some particular problem11:23
ckingAlanBell, do you have any more of that stack trace, it seems to be missing the first few lines11:28
henrixapw: hi! there are a few HV related bugs to be verified in Precise. do you think you'll be able to take a look at them?11:30
AlanBellcking: previous line in /var/log/messages is Dec 11 06:45:17 libertushost2 rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="2332" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, type 'lightweight'.11:32
ckingAlanBell, I was looking for the text that follows " ------------[ cut here ]------------"11:34
AlanBellwhere should I look for that? One of the other log files?11:34
ckingAlanBell,  /var/log/kern.log 11:35
ckingI think this looks similar: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/net/1102.0/00008.html11:36
AlanBellhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1427383/11:36
ckingAlanBell, can you file a bug so we can get some more info on the kernel + machine, and I will put it on my list to look at it11:38
AlanBellsure, do you want me to run ubuntu-bug on the server?11:39
AlanBelloh, no apport11:40
ckingyep, apport please11:40

hallynhuh, odd acpi badness killing my wifi (http://paste.ubuntu.com/1427833/) in quantal16:18
hallynagain and again16:22
hallynkeeps happening when i try to dput a kernel to ppa16:25
ckinghallyn, that's weird, the EC isn't responding after 500ms to produce that error16:26
hallyncking: meaning it sounds like a hardware problem?16:28
hallynpretty debilitating :)16:28
ckinghallyn, so you doing a dput over ethernet or wireless?16:30
hallyncking: wireless.  just tethered a second ago, let's see how that goes16:33
hallynit wasn't just dput it turns out.16:33
hallynalso apport trying to report this bug did the same thing :)16:33
hallynseems fine with wire so far.  trying a dput 16:36
hallynfiled bug 108947016:36
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1089470 in linux (Ubuntu) "Error with wireless network activity" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/108947016:36
hallynconsidering upgrading to raring :)16:36
LaneyAnyone know why core dumps are disabled on the Nexus 7's kernel?16:37
ckinghallyn, it may be worth trying that just as a quick way to see if it resolves the issue16:38
hallynworst part is this is my router-to-wireless and pxe boot server for other laptops :)16:38
hallyncking: or try a raring backport kernel on q?  is that available?16:38
hallynwell, i'll be leaving the house soon, will try an upgrade later today16:38
ckinghallyn, you could just try a raring kernel, it's worth a punt16:39
hallynwhat's the ppa for that?16:39
ckinghallyn, perhaps I should spin you one with some debug in to see why is happening in the EC handler to produce these timeouts16:40
hallyncking: sure, i can slurp it down this afternoon 16:41
ckingI'll update the bug with the details of where to find it etc later on16:41
hallynthanks!16:43
argesogasawara, hi.16:43
ogasawaraarges: heya16:43
argesogasawara, re: ceph module, you are going to handle the SRUs or should I get those patches done for you16:43
argesogasawara, whatever is easiest16:44
ogasawaraarges: I can do it, it's a quick fix16:44
argesogasawara, ok appreciate it. Next time I'll try reading all the letters in the bug16:44

brendandbjf, seems to have been a booboo with the lucid kernel? is that the end of the story now?17:34
brendandbjf, for your reassurance, everything was fine on our end17:34
henrixbrendand: i guess we still need the cert testing, even if the kernel has been released17:39
henrixbrendand: we don't expect any issues (there was only one CVE fix), but you never know... :)17:40
bjfbrendand, yup, user error. we'd still like it tested17:40
brendandbjf - i'll update the bug as normal then, everythings okay17:42

BenCapw: I have some questions about the config stuff you changed for ppc20:19
BenCMainly, KVM is disabled (not sure why, but I can fix that)20:19
BenCand 8250 serial was changed to modular, which kills serial console20:20
apwBenC, i disabled KVM ?  not intentially, i intended to enable it indeed20:20
apwBenC, 8250, eek, well that was a risk.  we didn't know why it was not M so now we do, and i will annotate it as needed indeed20:21
apwBenC, so ... if you could email me with what you need on and why, i'll add it to the annotations so we don't screw it up again20:22
BenCOn freescale boards the 8250 is serial console, so it doesn't help much as a module :)20:22
BenCOk20:22
apwBenC, great21:00
apwBenC, so is this for all ppc or just specific flavours (8250 ?)21:12
BenCapw: might as well be all. powermac has 8250 too, but it could definitely be used as a serial console, so good to enable it21:21

apwBenC, ack21:38
