Did you figure out the keyboard input issue? === oSoMoN_ is now known as oSoMoN [13:50] jibel: ça va ! [13:51] jibel: it seems run-ubiquity-test does not know how to set a proxy, is that right? --help or grepping didn't reveal anything [13:51] pitti, ça va bien et toi? [13:51] pitti, I don't think it is implemented at all [13:51] jibel: ça va bien aussi, merci [13:51] jibel: ok, so I wasn't missing something [13:52] -o, --override PATH [13:52] Directory to copy into the target filesystem [13:52] jibel: ^ is that "target" the instance that runs the live session with ubiquity? [13:52] I could use that to copy /etc/environment (if it accepts a file as well) [13:52] pitti, let me check, it's far far away [13:54] custom-installation/iso-override/ sounds promising, though, although this is initramfs; but perhaps that can copy it further [13:57] oh, autopilot/ubiquity-autopilot-runner/custom-installation/iso-override/etc/ -- I could just add it there for a first test [13:59] pitti, override has the same structure than custom-installation and is copied on top of it [13:59] pitti, so you can either replace files on the iso or the target [13:59] jibel: I added the proxy vars to autopilot/ubiquity-autopilot-runner/custom-installation/iso-override/etc/environment, testing with that [14:00] pitti, yes that would work too, otherwise you can create /tmp/custom-installation/iso-override/etc/environment and pass -o /tmp/custom-installation/ [14:01] jibel: ok, understood; that sounds good enough indeed [14:03] jibel: merci ! [14:05] pitti, de rien! [14:06] yay, the bzr checkout seems to have worked [14:12] jibel: is there a trick to set a password for the ubuntu user so that you can ssh into the VM? [14:12] jibel: it already redirects the ssh port, so I can connect, but password "ubuntu" doesn't work, and ssh doesn't allow empty passwords === barry` is now known as barry [14:15] pitti, you could import your ssh key [14:16] pitti, write them in the override too [14:16] jibel: ah, put it into /home/ubuntu/.ssh ? [14:16] pitti, yes [14:16] nice idea [14:16] it seems stuck after "switched to page partman" here [14:17] if you run locally you can also run with --sdl to see what is happening [14:19] jibel: it works locally; I'm now running in scalingstack [14:20] pitti, in scalingstack firewall rules might be a problem depending on the mirror the installer uses [14:21] jibel: hm, that should be handled by setting the proxy already [14:21] /var/log/syslog: Nov 17 14:06:41 ubuntu partman: No matching physical volumes found [98/9150] [14:21] /var/log/syslog: Nov 17 14:06:41 ubuntu partman: Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... [14:21] /var/log/syslog: Nov 17 14:06:49 ubuntu ubiquity[4026]: switched to page partman [14:22] those were the last messages, looks more like it's got some trouble creating and formatting a disk [14:22] downloading the autopilot debs into the live session works fine [14:22] pitti, you can start ubiquity with -d if it is not already the case and /var/log/installer/debug will contain more information [14:23] there is also a flag for that IIRC [14:23] ah, so there is [14:23] pitti, is there enough space in the VM to create the disk image? [14:24] yes, plenty [14:24] it'd need something like 10GB free [14:24] k [14:24] 150 GB [14:24] it should be enough indeed :) === alai888 is now known as alai === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk === cachio_ is now known as cachio [17:39] DanChapman: mo - the keyboard issue is still present [17:45] dkessel_: seems it's a known issue. bug 1108742 doesn't seem to be a workaround either :-( [17:45] bug 1108742 in Autopilot "Exotic keyboard layout results in incorrect characters input" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1108742 === Pharmasolin1 is now known as Pharmasolin [18:04] DanChapman: right... "affects me" ;) [18:04] heh [18:05] not sure that de is all that exotic nowadays :p [18:05] that really does not make it easier for international contributors to write tests === dkessel_ is now known as dkessel [18:05] I guess it's a exotic AS any non-US [18:06] dkessel: blame balloons [18:06] * balloons sees why he's blamed [18:07] don't blame me for that :p [18:07] ugh, that seems annoying [18:07] I wonder if there's a simple fix [18:08] The most annoying part for me is really the corrupted graphics in Autopilot vis though... with forced reboot [18:08] I suspect that autopilot assumes that any keyboard not connected to an Ubuntu install is gtk2 ... [18:09] I should file a bug for that graphics bug [18:10] flocculant, dkessel: Yes please file a bug for that, this is the first I've heard of it :-) [18:10] dkessel: so does autopilot only work with en-US settings ? [18:11] flocculant: that wouldn't surprise me if that's the case, we haven't exactly done extensive testing with it in other locals :-\ *blush* [18:11] mmk [18:12] veebers: tbh - I'm only interested in as much as xubuntu qa lead - up to now, it's all been a moot point because gtk2 [18:12] but dkessel is trying for us again :) [18:17] flocculant: when you say moot because gtk2, that's what's used in xubuntu (please excuse my ignorance :-P) [18:18] introspection fail with gtk2 as far as we knew/know - so we stopped even thinking about trying to use autopilot [18:18] I am not giving up that easy :) But I really have very limited time lately due to commuting for 3 hours per day now, and many times when things like that happen it really stops me from getting anywhere [18:19] dkessel: as you know - anything is better than what we've managed up to now :D [18:19] dkessel, flocculant: gtk2 is not supported by autopilot unfortunately [18:20] veebers: gtk3 is really getting more common in xfce4 lately. [18:20] Or Xubuntu, even [18:23] dkessel: ah good to hear :-) [18:23] flocculant: it works with 'de', but only if the tests use some subset of ASCII in Text comparisons [18:26] for example, i replaced "this_is_my_text!" with "this is the text" now because that is identical in both Keyboards. Pretty surevthat this won't work with Dvorak or French Layouts though [18:41] right [18:50] veebers, is it not possible to actually fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/autopilot/+bug/1108742? [18:50] Ubuntu bug 1108742 in Autopilot "Exotic keyboard layout results in incorrect characters input" [Low,Triaged] [18:50] dkessel, that is one way to avoid it.. only use characters that will be the same [18:53] balloons: I would have to investigate, I wouldn't know how to do it off the top of my head :-\ [18:54] balloons: At the moment the keyboard stuff is pretty barebones, I'm sure there is a better way to do it. any suggestions or help is much appreciated :-) [19:01] veebers, ack. I know it's bare-bones, but that maybe you did have insight on how to do it properly as it were [19:01] *thought [19:02] balloons: yeah, that's true, I didn't know how to do it properly. I would love to learn how to though :-) === chihchun_afk is now known as chihchun === chihchun is now known as chihchun_afk
