[15:58] melodie, i would blame your kernel for missing support, check the logs [15:58] then I asked to reopen it and get at least 1 Gb as limit but [15:58] look in /var/log/upstart/ [15:58] there should be a zram specific file [15:59] ogra_ not the kernel, the dev of the zram module : he told me in a mail more than one year ago that he didn't have time to make it get out of the staging directory [15:59] and I have been using zram for years in several distros without any hickups [15:59] well, ubuntu kernels usually have it enabled from staging [15:59] and so did many other people while using remixes I did with another distribution [16:00] if it isnt, and you actually use a packaged ubuntu kernel thats definitely a bug [16:00] ogra_ look in the... /usr/share/initramfs hooks directory I think [16:00] ogra_ you mean there might be a bug in the today's raring iso ? [16:00] melodie, oh, you are trying the wrong thing (/me only looked at that screenshot closer now) [16:00] there are no upstart jobs in /etc/init.d [16:01] have you seen in the pic, the zram module was [16:01] ... [16:01] sudo service zram-config start [16:01] (teh job lives in /etc/init/ (no .d)) [16:01] service zram-config start sends back an error : this is the first thing I tried [16:02] well, check the upstart logfile [16:02] wait a sec [16:02] plse [16:02] it should have all the output of the script [16:02] there is definitely a bug somewhere ... not sure it is in zram or the kernel though [16:02] ogra_ : [16:02] as root (did a sudo -s): [16:03] service zram-config start [16:03] start: Unknown job: zram-config [16:03] this is the message I got [16:03] and zram-config is installed ? [16:03] do you see /etc/init/zram-config.conf ? [16:04] of course sir ! I installed it first, before sendig all the commands [16:04] yes I see it [16:04] weird [16:04] I'll have to leave soon to bring someone to the train station but will be back later [16:04] is it not found by the init system [16:04] ogra_ this can be checked easily [16:05] well, in any case file a bug [16:05] Aren't inotify watches used to discover services? [16:05] ogra_ I have a little collection of bugs to report, so will I [16:05] i thought so [16:05] bbl [16:06] and inotify doesn't work on live cds [16:07] oh [16:07] we're on a live cd ? [16:07] * ogra_ thought that was a VM install [16:08] oh, I might have missed that [16:09] well ... or i missed something :) [16:10] " I am trying Ubuntu Raring in vbox now, and once installed zram-config, the zram-config service does not start" ... doesnt tell if its installed or not [16:13] initctl list and looking for zram config would probably be helpful [16:14] yeah [16:14] the package definitely didnt change since precise ... it had exactly one upload (and one revision) === pgraner` is now known as pgraner === pedro_ is now known as Guest49076 [17:11] I'm back [17:12] bdmurray I will restart vbox with Ubuntu Raring Live now and check "initctl list" as you said earlier [17:27] melodie: is it on a live system? [17:28] bdmurray yes [17:28] I said it: "with Ubuntu Raring Live" [17:28] :) [17:29] okay, that's not surprising then [17:30] bdmurray why that ? [17:31] I have set up an ubuntu precise version with openbox and zram works there, in live as well as in install, so why could it work in ubuntu raring ? [17:31] because upstart uses inotify to become aware of new jobs and inotify doesn't work on overlayfs [17:31] bug 882147 [17:31] Launchpad bug 882147 in coreutils (Ubuntu) "overlayfs does not implement inotify interfaces correctly" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/882147 [17:31] ok [17:32] after install zram-config run sudo initctl reload-configuration [17:32] ok [17:32] I will [17:32] if it doesn't appear in initctl list [17:32] ok [17:34] it doesn't appear, I also filtered with grep and zram to be sure [17:36] bdmurray that worked ! [17:37] bdmurray so if this is related to a bug already reported, I don't have to report one more, is that correct ? [17:39] melodie: that is correct [17:39] ok [17:40] bdmurray in Precise I didn't meet with this, which might be because in the openbox version I did, I have added the service start line into rc.local : what do you think ? [17:40] and also I removed the "under 512 MB" limit... [17:57] bdmurray you can look at zram in action here: http://meets.free.fr/images/ubuntu-raring-htop-zram.png [17:58] :) [17:58] unfortunately I could not downsize it due to impossibility to update initramfs in a live (after downsizing to 25% in the initramfs.conf file) [17:59] so now I'll install the live, and make a new pic related to the directory "Desktop", afterwards [19:46] It seems that in Ubuntu Unity Raring the Alt-F2 command does not allow to start an application. I had to use the dash instead and fell nose to nose to that lens thing as you can see here: [19:46] http://meets.free.fr/images/Raring/ubuntu-raring-seeking-for-a-terminal.png [19:46] :s [19:47] alt-f2 opens the dash since quite a while [19:48] ogra_ and when I tried to call for terminal, that didn't start the terminal, and it showed the wheels as icon, then tried to click on it, and nothing happened [19:49] that sounds like a bug then [19:49] one more ? [19:49] alk-f2 shoould give you the dash ... like in your screenhot [19:49] I would need to check in a real machine but I don't have one with enough resource connected and ready to go for now [19:50] if it shows something else thats wrong [19:50] *alt [19:50] it opens a field where I can type my command, but once typed and once some icons coming up, I can't get the app to start [19:52] yeah, thats a bug then [19:53] for the time being I am after getting it installed to vbox, and then make a pic of the desktop inside the /home/user [19:54] then a bug report needs to be done about the Desktop directory not being in my language in the live... then I'll see what next bug I am able to report... [19:55] my host is an archlinux box with openbox environmenet, in a 2 Gb machine, which leaves for now 750 mb to the guest machine [19:56] I'll check again after install [20:33] after install in vbox, Ubuntu did not start lightdm, it stayed with a black screen. So I went to a tty and used the command line provided to me earlier by bdmurray : [20:33] after install zram-config run sudo initctl reload-configuration [20:34] I did just initctl reload-configuration as root, and restarted lightdm : otherwise it didn't want to restart.
