| wget | Hi guys. Wrt a question I posted here during the week-end, but as you were absent, let me ask it again. | 10:27 |
|---|---|---|
| wget | Guys: I had a discussion ages ago with one of your kernel maintainer about this topic, and it's still not resolved and still impacting Ubuntu (while haven't tested 15.x nor 16.x series). | 10:27 |
| wget | https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75381 | 10:27 |
| wget | that bug is related to this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1269883?comments=all | 10:27 |
| wget | DO you have any news about this? | 10:27 |
| ubot5 | bugzilla.kernel.org bug 75381 in Network "Several disconnections that could lead to kernel panic" [High,New] | 10:28 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1269883 in linux (Ubuntu) "0b95:1790 [Asus N55SF] Bad performance of Asix Ethernet-to-USB device on USB3 port" [Medium,Incomplete] | 10:28 |
| davmor2 | wget: is it using kernel mod alx by any chance? | 10:36 |
| davmor2 | wget: I ask due to this issue http://askubuntu.com/questions/616182/alx-on-ar8191-does-not-appear-to-be-working-15-04/620489#620489 | 10:36 |
| wget | davmor2: lsmod |grep alx doesn't report anything when the adapter is connected | 10:38 |
| wget | so I assume it isn't using that mod | 10:38 |
| wget | the device is not a quallcomm atheros | 10:38 |
| davmor2 | wget: ah okay no worries | 10:39 |
| wget | mine is an Asix ax88179_178a | 10:39 |
| wget | like all USB3.0 to Ethernet you can find in Europe | 10:39 |

| TJ- | I've got a live issue here right now with 16.04, wonder if anyone has some ideas? GUI user with $HOME/.Xauthority file, which is subsequently "mount --bind /dev/shm/user/.Xauthority $HOME/.Xauthority" .. "xauth -f ... list" shows the MIT_MAGIC_COOKIE on both 'sides' identical... but then, after doing "xauth -f /dev/shm/user/.Xauthority generate :0 ." the cookies on each side of the bind mount differ | 11:01 |
| TJ- | and a hash of the file confirms the actual files are different - the 'target' doesn't reflect the content of the updated 'source'. Is this a weird kernel issue? | 11:01 |
| apw | TJ-, you are bind mounting a file ? | 11:07 |
| apw | TJ-, it looks like so, if so, it could well be linking the new name to the original inode | 11:08 |
| TJ- | apw: yes, correct, ahhhh and xauth (I read the source!) does a hard-link rename! | 11:08 |
| TJ- | apw: THANK you!! This has been causing some automation bugs that have been very annoying | 11:09 |
| apw | you can prolly prove that by linking the original file to a temp name before you replace the auth | 11:09 |
| TJ- | so, need to figure out a workaround | 11:09 |
| apw | and then catting into the extra name, and see if the one on the real home then changes | 11:10 |
| TJ- | yeah, that makes sense now. OK, so we just need to take care of the timing of the --bind | 11:10 |
| apw | symlink the .Xauthority into a like .config/Xauthority/.Xauthority | 11:11 |
| apw | and bind mount the .config/Xauthority perhaps ? | 11:11 |
| apw | or .config | 11:11 |
| TJ- | apw: that did it, thanks :) | 11:26 |
| spice | Hi all! I have to following issue: I develop a Linux network driver. The driver compiled and worked without any issues. After I upgraded the gcc package on my Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS machine, the kernel module produces paging bugs. | 12:44 |
| god | spice, what did you upgrade from, to? | 12:56 |
| spice | that is a good question ... I think it was a rahter minor gcc upgrade | 13:00 |
| spice | right now it is: 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.3 Before it might have been 4.8.4-1ubuntu.... or so. | 13:01 |
| spice | Is there any way to reinstall previous version of packages to make sure my claim is correct? | 13:01 |
| apw | spice, yes, all old versions are available via the launchpad librarian | 13:04 |
| apw | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.8/+publishinghistory | 13:04 |
| spice | okay, i will try that and see if this is definitely the culprit of my problem. Thank you for now! | 13:07 |
| apw | spice, it is not uncommon for a gcc upgrade to expose existing bugs through changes in optmisation, the -fpie becoming default in yakkety is finding all sorts of latent bugs | 13:08 |
| tseliot | rtg: all the nvidia drivers should be fixed in 16.10 now | 14:38 |
| tseliot | mamarley: ^ | 14:39 |
| rtg | tseliot, thanks, I'll get the kernel ADT tests re-ran | 14:41 |
| tseliot | rtg: yes, as soon as the nvidias are published | 14:42 |
| rtg | right | 14:42 |
| tseliot | (I've just uploaded the fixes) | 14:42 |
