brocktice | hi, I am having a strange ipv6 problem only in 4.4.0-81, I suspect the kernel, what is the best way to verify. Boot an earlier kernel? | 02:50 |

Lachezar | Hey all. X-Posting from #ubuntu as instructed: | 12:11 |
Lachezar | I got bit by what seems to be a kernel bug: Java programs crash with SIGSEGV. However the bug seems to have been fixed in 3.16.43-2+deb8u2 and 4.9.30-2+deb9u2, but I'm on Ubuntu's 4.10.0-24-generic. | 12:11 |
apw | Lachezar, likely fallout from the stackclash updates ... there are new kernels dropping into -proposed pretty much now, you might test one of those and see if it resolves your issue | 12:17 |
Lachezar | apw: I have zesty-proposed enabled. Is "apt-get dist-upgrade" sufficient? | 12:19 |
* apw wonders if zesty is yet built ... | 12:21 | |
ogra_ | Lachezar, no, that brings in all newer packages from proposed ... you most likely only want to cherry pick one package and then disable proposed again | 12:21 |
ogra_ | proposed tends to have test packages that could be severely broken | 12:21 |
Lachezar | ogra_: I see. So I do not enable proposed, but download and 'dpkg -i' them? | 12:21 |
ogra_ | (indeed dist-upgrade usually has a (Y/N) question, so you could stop it) | 12:22 |
apw | Lachezar, zesty is still building anyhow, it is one of the later ones in the list it seems, coming "soon" | 12:22 |
ogra_ | Lachezar, no, enable proposed but install via packag name | 12:22 |
ogra_ | not just through some "update all" command | 12:22 |
apw | something like .... enable proposed; apt-get update; apt-get install linux-generic; disable proposed; apt-get update | 12:23 |
Lachezar | apw: Ah. OK. | 12:23 |
Lachezar | ogra_: thanks. | 12:23 |
apw | but as i say, we are in the process of spinning kernels (or is it plates) now | 12:23 |
Lachezar | Kernels would be in proposed/main right? Not universe, multiverse etc. | 12:25 |
apw | Lachezar, depends on the kernel, but for the primary ones for desktop/server etc yes, those would be in main | 12:25 |

hallyn | all right, so confirmed, 4.8 kernel appears to cause my t440s screen to flicker every few minutes. hasn't happened since downgrading to 4.4 | 20:24 |
hallyn | the random flicker was strangely stressful - may as well have been an electric shock | 20:24 |
apw | hallyn, you know the drill ... bug please | 21:42 |
hallyn | apw: well, this was intended as a datapoint in case you've heard other reports; i need to get harder data to file a bug :) | 21:43 |
hallyn | i'll keep my eye on it, boot back and forth, etc. | 21:43 |
apw | hallyn, not heard of it no, though i guess i didn't run 4.8 very long | 21:44 |
hallyn | i have to stay on xenial so i can keep running upstart :) | 21:44 |
hallyn | mind you 4.8 seemed better with batt usage than 4.4 | 21:45 |
apw | hallyn, i think we did feel the same on battery | 21:50 |
apw | hallyn, well you have the option of a 4.10 in xenial ... linux-hwe-edge | 21:50 |
hallyn | so i'll boot back into that tomorrow and file a bug | 21:50 |
hallyn | ah, i'll try that, thx | 21:51 |
hallyn | (after tomorrow) | 21:51 |
apw | heh yeah, and keep us informed | 21:51 |
hallyn | will do | 21:51 |
