| JaySee | So i'm not sure how to go about filing this bug... Basicly what's wrong is the alx driver seems to crash when i let unity do it's thing and sleep my laptop when i close the lid, select it from the menu, etc. If i run pm-suspend though, the driver seems to be fine | 20:43 |
|---|---|---|
| penguin42 | what's alx? | 20:45 |
| JaySee | alx is the name of the driver for my ethernet card. you use the name when you go to modprobe it and such | 20:52 |
| penguin42 | ah ok, so ether driver | 20:52 |
| penguin42 | and you say it crashes, in what way? It just stops working or do you get an oops or any debug? | 20:52 |
| JaySee | just stops working | 20:53 |
| JaySee | when waking the laptop back up, it simply doesn't detect an ethernet connection | 20:53 |
| JaySee | still detects that there's an ethernet port though | 20:53 |
| penguin42 | does everything else work ok? | 20:53 |
| JaySee | everything else works fint | 20:53 |
| JaySee | fine | 20:53 |
| JaySee | i generally work around it by running "sudo rmmod alx && sudo modprobe alx" | 20:54 |
| penguin42 | do you have wireless as well on it ? | 20:54 |
| JaySee | yup | 20:54 |
| penguin42 | ok, so I'd report the bug against the linux package, makesure you use a subject like suspend in the title, and I'd make the report by doing ubuntu-bug linux on the system over wifi from the system after you've woken it with the ethernet in the broken state | 20:56 |
| JaySee | that sounds reasonable | 20:56 |
| penguin42 | and put the note in about how pm-suspend works; I doubt unity itself has anything to do with it, it could be some interaction with network-manager or something but shrug | 20:57 |
| JaySee | just wasn't sure what package to file it against | 20:57 |
| penguin42 | JaySee: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Suspend.2C_Hibernate.2C_and_Resume | 20:57 |
| JaySee | it's worth reporting | 20:57 |
| JaySee | as soon as this large file transfer is done... | 20:57 |
| penguin42 | JaySee: Yeh, I'd say since it's hardware specific I'd go with the kernel | 20:57 |
| JaySee | well the driver wasn't even in a ubuntu package until 13.10... | 20:58 |
| JaySee | but now it's installed by default | 20:58 |
| JaySee | :D | 20:58 |
| penguin42 | right, so some progress | 21:00 |
| JaySee | yup | 21:00 |
| penguin42 | JaySee: When you report the bug, a bot will ask you to try the latest upstream kernel from a url it will give you and ask you to fill in some notes | 21:01 |
