| bentovillage | hi | 19:15 |
|---|---|---|
| bentovillage | I am in a live session, about to install. the version is Precise 12.04-5 with the latest available generic kernel | 19:15 |
| bentovillage | : | 19:15 |
| bentovillage | "Linux ubuntu 3.2.0-75-generic-pae #110-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 19:29:27 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux | 19:16 |
| bentovillage | " | 19:16 |
| bentovillage | and zram-config does not start while booting, although installed in the live | 19:16 |
| bentovillage | it tries to start, then fails with error in dmesg: "[ 126.597100] init: zram-config pre-start process (2021) terminated with status 1" | 19:17 |
| bentovillage | it's a bit difficult to post a bug report from within a machine which is slow and noisy, and where I don't have my credentials for launchpad. could someone have a look for me, to see if this was reported with this one kernel? | 19:18 |
| teward | bentovillage: might want to post a general idea of your specs | 19:19 |
| teward | because if its specs-specific or hardware specific you have a new problem. | 19:19 |
| bentovillage | this is a Fujitsu Amilo El 6800 with a celeron M 2 Ghz and 1 Gb RAM in two 512 MB modules. | 19:20 |
| bentovillage | chipset SIS | 19:20 |
| teward | been an eon since i heard Celeron M | 19:21 |
| teward | dual core? | 19:21 |
| bentovillage | not at all | 19:21 |
| bentovillage | it's an old thingy | 19:22 |
| teward | so single core 32bit? | 19:22 |
| teward | egad | 19:22 |
| bentovillage | yes | 19:22 |
| teward | as i said, egad | 19:22 |
| bentovillage | what is that word? first time seen | 19:22 |
| teward | just an exclamation of surprise | 19:23 |
| bentovillage | :p | 19:23 |
| teward | bentovillage: what's your disk size out of curiosity | 19:23 |
| teward | i'm spinning up a VM with near those specs to try and replicate | 19:23 |
| bentovillage | it was given for free and will be handed to a woman who does not have means to buy one; | 19:23 |
| bentovillage | she has very small needs too. just surf the web and watch a few video movies | 19:24 |
| bentovillage | here is the proc specs: http://pastebin.com/RpKYpd94 | 19:26 |
| teward | well i'll test but not at the moment - heading out to food | 19:27 |
| bentovillage | (took me all this time to get to post it) | 19:27 |
| bentovillage | teward, have a nice meal! bon appétit | 19:27 |
| bentovillage | I'll be back from my other machine with my usual nick "melodie". | 19:27 |
| bentovillage | here I have to shoot the install | 19:27 |
| bentovillage | <teward> bentovillage: what's your disk size out of curiosity | 40 GB | 19:35 |
| bentovillage | I should report one more bug which is in the installer. When the partition isn't marked to be formatted it warns that all directories will be erased, /bin/ /etc and so on. But all has not been erased last time I chose that method (yesterday evening). Instead it merged the Slitaz filesystem and the Ubuntu filesystem, resulting in an un bootable distribution, looking for "Ubuntu with slitaz kernel and modules" | 19:37 |
| bentovillage | it's not how I do it usually. usually I prepare the partitions with gparted, but there I wanted to try it this way, to see how it would go. | 19:38 |
| melodie | hi | 19:50 |
| teward | bentovillage: i believe that's just the warning in place for reasons | 20:50 |
| teward | i don't ahve a 12.04 image here so i ahve to download before i can test | 20:51 |
| teward | melodie: ^ | 20:51 |
| teward | melodie: although Lubuntu is a lighter choice | 20:52 |
| melodie | Bento is even lighter :D | 20:53 |
| teward | heh | 20:54 |
| melodie | http://phillw.net/isos/bento-ubuntu-remix/bento-i686-pae/readme.txt | 20:54 |
| teward | but is that an official variant ;) | 20:54 |
| melodie | it's as good as an official one though because using official sources to build | 20:54 |
| melodie | official packages I mean | 20:55 |
| melodie | few exceptions : a ppa for libreoffice, another one for pcmanfm, the basis is the same though | 20:55 |
| melodie | it is more than two years old now, and tested | 20:56 |
| melodie | I mean the project started in 2012, summer, and had many new updated versions since with corrections and fine tuning | 20:57 |
| melodie | it is presented here, btw: http://linuxvillage.org/en/2013/11/bento-ubuntu-remix-rc/ | 20:57 |
| melodie | <teward> bentovillage: i believe that's just the warning in place for reasons | it's not. the zram-config service is supposed to be started during boot time, which makes the live easier to install on old machines. | 20:59 |
| melodie | if the installed version keeps the zram-config package after install (which lubuntu doesn't) then zram-config should also work once installed : which it does not with this one kernel. | 20:59 |
| melodie | there has been bug reports last year, with another kernel version, about zram-config not being started. and was solved. it seems it's back with some of the kernel versions. | 21:00 |
| melodie | I'll seek the LP bug section to find some | 21:01 |
| melodie | here: | 21:02 |
| melodie | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zram-config/ | 21:02 |
| melodie | that's not a bug, it's a collection. /o\ | 21:02 |
| melodie | overwhelming. :-( | 21:03 |
| melodie | teward what do you think you could do? Do you deal with the bug reports? | 21:12 |
| bentovillage | teward, install is finished here, I'm leaving this one session | 21:24 |
| bentovillage | if needed I can be back here for information on the post install behavior, just let me know? | 21:24 |
