ashwin1331I have a bug with laptop battery where do i get support/fix05:09
Noskcajdarkxst, I did notice the second lot of changes weren't just image changes05:32
ashwin1331Hi guys, can i get help to fix my battery issue.06:01
* mgedmin is trying to test the ubuntu-gnome rc images in testdrive06:05
mgedminthe beginning is not promising: I told testdrive to use virtualbox (because can't use kvm right now because reasons) and it launches qemu06:06
mgedminseems to be booting (after a loooong wait while staring at a black screen with a scary failure message)06:06
Noskcajmgedmin, Is vbox installed?06:08
mgedminyes, and currently in use by a running vagrant vm (which is why I can't use kvm)06:09
mgedmin(I assume -- the error message was "ioctl(KVM_CREATE_VM) failed: 16 Device or resource busy")06:09
NoskcajIs it possible to close the vagrant VM and try?06:09
Noskcajalso, #ubuntu-quality would be the place to ask for testdrive problems, but everyone there is asleep currently06:10
mgedminso far no questions, just sharing the fun :)06:11
mgedminok, testdrive seems to be broken to the point of unusability so I'm not sure I can help with the image testing :/06:20
mgedminmaybe I can do that manually?06:20
Noskcajmgedmin, All testdrive really does is zsync/rsync the image, check it's md5 sum, then launch it in a VM. So it's not too much harder to manually test06:23
NoskcajAnd thank you for testing06:23
ashwin1331Hi guys i need help in fixing battery bug in ubuntu-gnome06:39
mgedminooh, what a trap: ~/.testdriverc has a section named [testdrive-gtk], so the cli version doesn't use any of those settings!06:39
mgedminsome vi and I'm finally booting utopic in virtualbox06:39
mgedminthe boot splash screen was in pure text mode, interesting/strange06:40
mgedminno, the graphics are borked06:41
ashwin1331can any one tell me at least where can i get help06:42
Noskcajashwin1331, try adding more info to the question06:43
darkxstmgedmin, I gave up using vbox, its virtual gpu is rubbish06:43
Noskcaj!patience06:43
mgedminthis is what my mouse cursor looks like: http://i.imgur.com/I98hAQH.png :D06:43
darkxsthmm seems someone re-spun our images again, suppose that was for the plymouth fix06:44
ashwin1331Noskcaj, if my battery is less than 50% and  my laptop will shutdown if I unplug changing cable. Its new laptop - Lenovo G580. We have three same laptops in our office.06:47
Noskcajashwin1331, Does this happen with standard ubuntu, or only ubuntu-gnome?06:48
ashwin1331I am seeing this from ubuntu 13.04 hoping that it will be fixed in next version.06:48
Noskcajif so, ask in #ubuntu . If it also happens in a non-ubuntu OS, it's a hardware issue06:48
ashwin1331no idea, We have ubuntu gnome on 10 laptops here.06:48
ashwin1331okay, I will try on ubuntu and fedora to narrow my issue and come back. Thank you.06:49
mgedminhm, my vm has only 1 gig of ram, will that be enough?06:50
mgedminI see release notes saying it needs 1.506:51
mgedminperhaps I should restart from the beginning after some more .testdriverc editing06:51
mgedminoh, yes, testdrive just removed my iso and is now downloading it from scratch06:53
mgedminbrilliant06:53
darkxstmgedmin, 1GB is fine for testing06:53
* mgedmin made a big mistake when he decided to do some software testing before breakfast06:54
mgedminI saw two untranslated strings in the boot menu06:56
mgedminnow I'm sure it's too late to fix them for the final iso, but maybe I can do that for 15.0406:56
mgedmindoes anybody know which package contains the translations for the iso boot menu?06:56
mgedmin(this thing here: http://i.imgur.com/gSMVrYk.png)06:57
darkxstmgedmin, syslinux or isolinux06:59
darkxstalthough the menu may and perhaps translations may be in syslinux-themes07:02
mgedminI just love that there's no way to search for package name in https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+lang/lt07:02
mgedminand sorting by package name sorts just the current batch07:03
mgedminhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/syslinux/+translations has no translations07:03
mgedminhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/syslinux-themes/+translations doesn't exist07:03
mgedminhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/isolinux/+translations doesn't exist07:04
darkxstsyslinux-themes-ubuntu maybe07:04
mgedminhttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/utopic/+source/syslinux-themes-ubuntu/+translations has no translations07:04
mgedminmaybe syslinux's translations are not based on gettext?07:04
mgedminpity there's no #ubuntu-translations07:05
darkxsttry #ubuntu-devel, cjwatson would probably know07:06
darkxstor xnox perhaps07:06
mgedminI think I found a bug in the keyboard selection screen: no matter which of the available Lithuanian layouts07:11
mgedminI choose, when I type in the test box, it seems only one of them is used07:11
darkxstmgedmin, all of that stuff is shared with ubuntu and the other flavours07:11
darkxstmgedmin, you may need to ask again an hour or two, most Canonical devs won't have started the day yet07:14
darkxstoh but many of them are in washington this week, so even later07:14
mgedmin:)07:14
mgedminso this bug is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/52482607:16
ubot5Ubuntu bug 524826 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "[Gtk UI] Keyboard setting preview is not working when using german installer " [Undecided,Confirmed]07:16
mgedminand hey look who commented on it FOUR YEARS AGO?  *me*07:16
mgedmin"Stopping SpamAssassin Mail Filter Daemon" is an interesting message to see in the installer07:24
mgedminhm, it doesn't seem to be rebooting successfully07:25
mgedminif I were to file a "fails to reboot after installing" bug, where should I file it?07:27
mgedminit's probably not ubiquity's fault07:27
mgedmincould be kernel, could be upstart07:28
mgedminis there any way to trigger alt-sysrq in qemu?  showTasks would be interesting to see07:28
darkxstmgedmin, just hit enter07:32
mgedminnothing happens07:32
darkxstit will then reboot, well should07:32
mgedminthe only thing that works is Alt-Fn for switching between vt's07:32
mgedminI can do ctrl-alt-2 to get the qemu console and system_reset07:33
mgedminum07:33
mgedminnow the entire qemu is frozen and no longer lets me ctrl-alt-1/2/3 or type in the console07:33
mgedminthe cursor's still blinking07:34
mgedminok, I can run qemu again by hand with the same disk image and see if the install succeeded07:36
mgedmincan I?07:36
mgedmin$ qemu-system-x86_64 -uuid 65a27bc0-5a39-40bd-ae72-26ddbf8e9808 -m 2048 -smp 4 file=/home/mg/.cache/testdrive/img/testdrive-disk-xCcxo3.img,if=virtio,cache=writeback,index=0 -usb -usbdevice tablet -net nic,model=virtio -net user -soundhw es1370 -vga cirrus -enable-kvm07:36

mgedminoops, deleted -drive accidentally while deleting -cdrom07:37
darkxsthmm maybe testdrive uses a temporary vm07:37
mgedminyay it boots!07:37
mgedminit doesn't appear to be using my keyboard layout correctly07:39
mgedminand there seems to be some video corruption07:39
mgedminin the window title: http://i.imgur.com/6RUDZBl.png07:40
darkxstmgedmin, qemu uses llvm software rendering, so should work but isnt really comparable to a real install where you have openGL07:41
mgedminiow it's a known bug and I needn't bother reporting, yes?07:43
mgedminright, so http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/325/builds/82403/testcases/1300/results is probably failed because of that 'didn't reboot' thing07:44
mgedmindo I need to create a hardware profile I was testing in a VM?08:02
mgedminok, what?08:06
mgedminI submitted my testcase result, with links to bugs and everything08:06
mgedminit told me "every failed testcase needs to have a bug blah blah"08:06
mgedminand now it doesn't show my report and it doesn't show the form for submitting a test report08:07
darkxstI don't bother with hardware profile, just put in comments 'tested in qemu VM' or whatever08:08
mgedminwait a second, build 82403 got archived already08:09
mgedminand the current one is 8244108:09
darkxsthardware profile is only relevent when running reall hardware08:09
mgedmindo I test again?08:09
darkxstmgedmin, they got re-spun about an hour ago08:10
darkxstprobably ok though, not much would have changed since this mornings image08:10
mgedminon 2nd boot my keyboard layout is correct08:11
mgedminalso rebooting works08:11
mgedminhey, maybe that's why my .iso got clobbered -- new images showed up, rsync ran08:15
mgedminI panicked (why is it rsyncing, it had the full is already), hit ^c, and rsync (or testdrive) deleted the half-rsynced .iso08:15
mgedminanyway I relaunch testdrive and rsync is instant08:16
mgedminso I was testing the newest image already08:16
mgedminjust tried to submit my report in the wrong place08:16
mgedminthis is fun, I'll test again -- with lvm and encryption08:19
mgedminoops out of disk space08:21
mgedminwhew, deleted the old .img in time08:22
mgedmin(please gently tell me if I'm too chatty)08:22
mgedminwhoops, not in time08:36
mgedminmy qemu got stopped and I didn't notice08:36
mgedminctrl-alt-2, cont, enter, ctrl-alt-1 and it's continuing08:36
mgedminok, reboot got stuck again08:52
darkxstmgedmin, really just try vmware ;)09:44
darkxstyou can get the tech preview free, though it will expire once they release VMware 1109:45

darkxst<darkxst> ricotz, hi, sjoerd gave me the ok to host packaging branches on alioth10:03
darkxst<darkxst> still waiting on steve to make a script to automate uploading initial branches, but that may never happen, so will just whip up something quick10:03
darkxstbranches will be at git.debian.org/pkg-gnome/ubuntu/10:04
l3ondarkxst, awesome!10:07
ricotzdarkxst, hi, nice! thanks for the notice10:11
darkxstwill try get stuff in ubuntu GNOME packageset (gdm, mutter, shell etc) up over the weekend10:13
darkxstbut longer term would be good to get everything on ppa's with ubuntu delta up there10:15
darkxstricotz, also I test debian g-i, it works fine at run-time for everything10:17
darkxst(i.e. multiarch gir's)10:17
darkxstthe fallout in debian was purely build related, and I think now that is mostly fixed10:18
l3onI asked yesterday .. no answer, I'm asking again ..  what you think about http://paste.ubuntu.com/8614197/plain/ ?10:18
darkxstl3on, I think use a pastie that doesnt require login to view!10:19
l3onmmm .. ah reight .. p.u.c requires lp login10:19
l3on*right10:19
darkxstyeh its stupid and a pain!10:20
l3onthen remove /plain -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8614197/10:20
ricotzdarkxst, alright10:20
ricotzdarkxst, btw, it is nice to get things updated, but it would be better to actually build those in the ppa rather than binary copy them to make use of dbgsyms10:20
ricotzl3on, or use paste.debian.net ;)10:21
l3on:P10:21
darkxstricotz, right and crap, I probably called you out on that in the past ;(10:23
mgedminre: vmware -- I try to avoid non-free software when free alternatives exist10:33
l3ontada -> http://people.ubuntu.com/~l3on/tmp/ubuntu-themes_gtk-3.14.png :)10:34
mgedminwheee can't enter my cryptsetup passphrase10:36
mgedminkeyboard layout issue?10:36
mgedminsort of, yes10:37
mgedminmanaged it10:37
mgedminwhee graphics10:42
darkxstl3on, can you ping me tomorrrow and I will take a look10:42
l3ondarkxst, ok10:42
darkxstmgedmin, vmware has a fully open-source graphics stack and it works really well10:42
mgedminyeah, because https://twitter.com/mgedmin/status/524873517834440704 is ridiculous10:43
darkxstmgedmin, there is a reason vmware drivers are in mainline kernel and vbox is barred from it!10:44
mgedminI'm using kvm, not vbox10:44
mgedmin(my attempts with vbox failed even more miserably, so I shut down all my vagrant vms and switched to kvm)10:45
darkxstmgedmin, kvm, qemu etc, all use software fallbacks10:45
darkxstthey don't have gl drivers10:45
mgedminllvmpipe is surprisingly fast10:46
darkxstmgedmin, it works well enough on multi-core real hardware, but I see no end of artificats in VM's with it10:49
mgedminisn't that strange?10:50
darkxstnot really10:51
mgedmintried gnome-boxes instead of testdrive just for fun, it segfaulted: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/138417010:55

Noskcajdarkxst, Should we sync appstream-glib to PPA?21:55
darkxstNoskcaj, I think it needs packagekit update?21:55
darkxstand that seems risky21:56
Noskcajok21:56
darkxstwe may backport it, when/if it lands in vivid22:06
darkxstNoskcaj, actually its gnome-software that depends on packagekit update23:43
darkxstand that is probably on the only component using appstream-glib right now23:43
Noskcajvinagre uses it23:45
Noskcajor at least wants to, debian had a revert23:45
darkxstwell there is no metadata yet anyway23:45
darkxstI have no idea when Ubuntu will actually get dep11 support23:46
