| maslen | Hi guys; I'm on Ubuntu 13.10 and thought that this VLC/OpenGL bug might be relevant: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/8952 | 02:15 |
|---|---|---|
| maslen | Either the VLC dev is making a false assumption or there is a bug in the openGL code it's referencing. | 02:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | maslen: From the info provided on the ticket we don't even know if the submitter was using Ubuntu. | 02:17 |
| maslen | I was using ubuntu 13.10; I filed the ticket. | 02:18 |
| maslen | x86 | 02:18 |
| maslen | "Tested on Ubuntu 13.10 x86 with the trunk version of VLC with git commit" | 02:18 |
| maslen | (wow, I was tired when I filed that one) | 02:18 |
| SonikkuAmerica | maslen: Oh wow, I'm slow. I never bothered to look @ the introductory text. Slap me now. | 02:20 |
| * maslen slaps SonikkuAmerica with a slimy politician | 02:20 | |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ouch. Thank you. | 02:20 |
| SonikkuAmerica | maslen: Has a bug been filed against the vlc package in Launchpad? | 02:21 |
| maslen | SonikkuAmerica: Not AFAIK | 02:21 |
| SonikkuAmerica | maslen: Well, if it happens again, Apport should appear, if it doesn't, run [ ubuntu-bug vlc ] in a terminal. | 02:22 |
| maslen | Hmm? That bug was just something I triggered will attempting to build a PoC for (what I'm hoping is) a security vulnerability in VLC. | 02:23 |
| SonikkuAmerica | maslen: Aaaaaaaaaaand what's stopping you from filing the report in Launchpad? I have a hunch that the Ubuntu devs working on the VLC packaging can direct it to the correct place. | 02:25 |
| maslen | SonikkuAmerica: Laziness - I'm not going to fight to get a crash fixed. One bug report if sufficient on my end. I'm willing to hand it off - that's why I mentioned it here. | 02:30 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Believe me, we don't fight. We just get things done :) Besides, we need to reproduce stuff. | 02:30 |
| sm0x | hey guys, is in the actual daily-build of saucy "Mir" already included ? | 07:45 |
| bazhang | there's a PPA for that iirc | 07:47 |
| sm0x | bazhang: thx | 07:49 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 11:23 |
| penguin42 | hmm, muon software/updater seems to be hanging for me after doing updates - it just sits there 'Loading software list...' | 11:46 |
| penguin42 | reported as kde bug 322340 | 12:10 |

| jalcine | Hey everyone, got a problem with grub-efi-amd64=2.00-15ubuntu1 | 13:54 |
| jalcine | I'm attempting to use apport to push a bug report now | 13:55 |
| jalcine | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1201112 | 14:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1201112 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "64-bit GRUB refuses to Install" [Undecided,New] | 14:04 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: You say an error occurs - what error? | 14:07 |
| jalcine | Well, I'm getting a configuration error, `dpkg --configure grub-efi-amd64` fails each and every time. | 14:07 |
| jalcine | http://paste.kde.org/pb9b7db8a/ | 14:08 |
| penguin42 | right but you say something about ust line 529 | 14:08 |
| jalcine | ah, yes, line 529 within /usr/bin/uct seems to be hit every time | 14:09 |
| penguin42 | so how did you find that ? | 14:09 |
| jalcine | it explicitly stated that in the console, but after uninstalling (*cringe*) and then reinstalling 'grub-common', the error message went away, but it kept failing. | 14:10 |
| penguin42 | do you have the exact error that uct said? | 14:10 |
| jalcine | How would I get more output from `dpkg --configure`? | 14:10 |
| penguin42 | it's tricky - that says it's the post installation script - so I'd try running it manually | 14:11 |
| jalcine | error from /usr/bin/ucfq: "Undefined subroutine &conffile::abs_path called at /usr/bin/ucfq line 529, <HASH> line 21 | 14:12 |
| jalcine | I spelled the file's name wrong, sorry. | 14:12 |
| penguin42 | ahha - ok, add that detail to the bug | 14:12 |
| penguin42 | also say what you did to try and install saucy - is this an upgrade? How? Did you have any ppas installed? Anything else odd? | 14:14 |
| jalcine | updated | 14:17 |
| jalcine | is it okay if I gzipped my /etc/apt/source.list.d to a tar.gz for the bug reports? | 14:17 |
| jalcine | it's nothing big | 14:17 |
| penguin42 | you could do if it was small and you thought it would help (not sure if it would for this) | 14:18 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: you said 'I fixed it' - how? | 14:18 |
| jalcine | updated with how I did. | 14:19 |
| jalcine | I just forced it to call the method in question: `Cwd::abs_path` | 14:19 |
| jalcine | but it didn't change anything, so I undid it. | 14:20 |
| penguin42 | ok, I'll leave that to the grub guys to figure out | 14:20 |
| jalcine | thanks! | 14:21 |
| penguin42 | thanks for adding the info | 14:21 |
| jalcine | glad I could help! | 14:22 |
| jalcine | I'm looking at the postinst script right now, I'd have to manually run this script, you said? | 14:27 |
| jalcine | AH! man, how would I get in touch with the grub team? | 14:31 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: Well, there is the maintainer address shown on the pacakge, but if you know what's wrong then add it to the bug and I can set the bug to triaged | 14:31 |
| jalcine | I have an idea of it, I'm updating the bug now. | 14:39 |
| jalcine | Yup, I think I fixed it | 14:48 |
| jalcine | it's one number that always get us. | 14:48 |
| jalcine | I'll continue adding to the bug. | 14:48 |
| jalcine | I'd send a patch if I knew how. | 14:48 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1201112 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "64-bit GRUB refuses to Install" [Undecided,New] | 14:49 |
| jalcine | that's my results | 14:49 |
| jalcine | I wish that Launchpad had some kind of markup for the comments. | 14:50 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: so it sounds like you've got two things there, one is ucf that needs to put a cwd:: in, and the other the cut field | 14:51 |
| jalcine | yup | 14:51 |
| jalcine | man, I haven't fretted this hard in a while, I was scared I wouldn't be able to boot! | 14:51 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: Can you include your /etc/default/grub | 14:51 |
| jalcine | sure | 14:51 |
| penguin42 | it sounds like perhaps it's a little odd - I doubt this failed for everyone | 14:51 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: In my ucfq I have the line use Cwd qw{abs_path}; at line 504 - why doesn't that work for you? | 14:53 |
| jalcine | I don't have that there. | 14:53 |
| penguin42 | which version of the ucfq package do you have? | 14:54 |
| jalcine | My last-mod date for this file (in the file itself is) Fri Apr 14 19:30:45 2006 with an update count of 81 | 14:54 |
| penguin42 | sorry, ucf package | 14:54 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: What does dpkg -l ucf say ? | 14:54 |
| jalcine | 3.0027 | 14:55 |
| penguin42 | hmm I have 3.0027+nmu1 | 14:55 |
| jalcine | http://paste.kde.org/pfc50b292/ | 14:56 |
| penguin42 | ah, I see - the +nmu1 variety is in saucy-proposed | 14:57 |
| jalcine | so something got missed! happens to the best of us! | 14:57 |
| jalcine | looks like I might have to add that sourcelist | 14:58 |
| penguin42 | no, I think it's just that it was fixed recently but not made it into the main release yet | 14:58 |
| jalcine | ah, so I can wait then | 14:59 |
| penguin42 | ok, so attach your /etc/default/grub | 14:59 |
| jalcine | attached | 15:00 |
| jalcine | yup, that debbug definitely is it. | 15:01 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: I don't think the change of the 2 to 1 is needed - that's expecting a package name | 15:02 |
| jalcine | Well, I wouldn't say it's the solution, but it's what got it working here locally. | 15:02 |
| jalcine | a hack, if you may. | 15:02 |
| penguin42 | what does ucfq --with-colons /etc/default/grub | cut -d : -f 2 say to you? | 15:02 |
| jalcine | completely empty | 15:03 |
| penguin42 | huh | 15:03 |
| penguin42 | ok, what about ucfq --with-colons /etc/default/gru | 15:03 |
| jalcine | /etc/default/grub:grub-efi-amd64:Yes:Yes | 15:03 |
| jalcine | but it didn't show that before | 15:03 |
| penguin42 | ok, that's fine - so why doesn't the cut work? | 15:03 |
| jalcine | I'm not sure. | 15:04 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: Can you try echo red:green:blue | cut -d : -f 2 | 15:04 |
| jalcine | green | 15:05 |
| jalcine | ah. I think I understand now. | 15:05 |
| jalcine | makes sense with the old output | 15:05 |
| penguin42 | good, so lets try that ucfq --with-colons /etc/default/grub | cut -d : -f 2 again ? | 15:05 |
| jalcine | It was "/etc/default/grub::Yes" originally | 15:05 |
| jalcine | grub-efi-amd64 outputs now | 15:05 |
| penguin42 | any idea what changed it? | 15:06 |
| jalcine | it looks like my GRUB config was faulty before but after running the postinst + 'update-grub', it corrected the value. | 15:06 |
| jalcine | I'm going to say it was 'update-grub' | 15:06 |
| penguin42 | I don't think so, I mean ucf seems to get it's stuff from /var/lib/ucf/registry - not sure what put it in there | 15:08 |
| jalcine | probably not useful: but my /var/lib/ucf/registry >> http://paste.kde.org/p537092c7/ | 15:09 |
| penguin42 | yeh mine has grub-pc - but I wonder when it is added | 15:09 |
| jalcine | there's only one way I could think of testing this: via qemu + 13.04 to 13.10a1 | 15:10 |
| penguin42 | yeh | 15:10 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: I don't know the ucf stuff but I think it's only trying to read the package name just to test if it needs to change the ucf data | 15:15 |
| jalcine | that looks like the flow, yeah | 15:16 |
| jalcine | actually, to determine what to do within the postinst script | 15:16 |
| jalcine | being that there's a HUGE block for grub-pc and then a small on for grub-efi-{i386,amd64} | 15:16 |
| penguin42 | jalcine: grub-pc has had another 10+ years of weird stuff found it has to deal with | 15:17 |
| jalcine | indeedy | 15:19 |
| Kow | just going to throw this one out there: anyone had issues with ubuntu 13.10 not booting within the last week or so due to networkmanager? I am using virtualbox. | 16:49 |

| Noize__ | Is mir stable enough to use at its current state? | 21:25 |
| holstein | no | 21:25 |
| Noize__ | What isn't working currently? | 21:28 |
| holstein | Noize__: if you are looking for "stable", you dont want the development release, or MIR | 21:29 |
| holstein | !mir | 21:29 |
| ubottu | Mir is the next-generation display server currently under development by Canonical and Ubuntu. It's slated for inclusion in Ubuntu 14.04. For more information on it, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec . For code, see https://launchpad.net/mir | 21:29 |
| Noize__ | Is the development release in 13.10? | 21:30 |
| holstein | Noize__: 13.10 *is* the development release | 21:30 |
| Noize__ | Thought u mentioned mir dev release | 21:31 |
| holstein | Noize__: theres a PPA if you want to help test or whatever | 21:31 |
| holstein | Noize__: MIR is not release yet, so there is only develpment release of that AFAIK | 21:31 |
| Noize__ | I usually stay ahead a stable release, I just wanna know if 13.10 is usable in a basic sense | 21:32 |
| holstein | Noize__: no | 21:32 |
| holstein | Noize__: you should not use the development release of *anything* if you are wanting stability | 21:33 |
| holstein | Noize__: even if its "fine" now, it can break, anytime | 21:33 |
| Noize__ | Lol I don't mind if it breaks, always looking to help... | 21:34 |
| holstein | Noize__: OK.. enjoy then. i thought you were asking if it will break | 21:35 |
| jo-erlend | is the software center broken, or is it just me? | 23:10 |
| === jimerickson is now known as jje | ||
| hachre | its broken ya | 23:27 |
| roasted | hello friends | 23:54 |
| roasted | I understand 13.10 is getting mir (or has mir?) would it be in a daily image? | 23:54 |
| FernandoMiguel | roasted: nope. not yet | 23:56 |
| FernandoMiguel | you can add it via ppa | 23:56 |
| FernandoMiguel | but X is broken there | 23:56 |
| roasted | FernandoMiguel: ah I'll be patient. Whenever Mir lands in 13.10, is that something that would require a new daily build install? I wonder if it'll simply come down in the regular update system... | 23:59 |
| FernandoMiguel | upgrades should just be fine | 23:59 |
| FernandoMiguel | my system is from 12.10 +1 | 23:59 |
