| raidghost | TJ-: was my bug report correct made? | 10:29 |
|---|---|---|
| TJ- | raidghost: what's the bug number? I have private messages blocked so I didn't see it yesterday | 10:31 |
| * apw didn't know you could block PMs ... interesting | 10:32 | |
| TJ- | apw: /umode +g | 10:33 |
| TJ- | apw: you get a server message telling you a msg was blocked, and you can have a PM with that person by doing "/query <nick> hi" to open it from your side | 10:34 |
| apw | oh that is quite nice if you are getting slapped about | 10:34 |
| TJ- | raidghost: post the buglink, apw is someone I'd like to see it :) | 10:35 |
| TJ- | apw: being in support channels, without +g, everyone thinks they're special and can get 1-to-1 help | 10:35 |
| TJ- | apw: raidghost's issue is that there is a system with 12 DVB devices in and the kernel config is hard-coded to 8... the request is to increase that, I'm going to suggest 16 ... hopefully the bug number will be provided soon. The problem is 4 devices don't get initialised due to insufficient device numbers | 10:37 |
| apw | yeah i bet, most people do think they are special :) | 10:37 |
| TJ- | apw: in this case 3 physical adapters each with 4 DVB frontends | 10:38 |
| apw | i'm sparticus | 10:38 |
| apw | TJ-, that doesn't sound like an unreasonable request, if it isn't making multi-megabyte buffers for DVD cards you don't have at least | 10:39 |
| TJ- | It needs DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS=16 rather than =8 | 10:39 |
| TJ- | apw: right... raidghost show is the bug link ! | 10:39 |
| apw | the default is 16, so that should tell me something :) | 10:40 |
| apw | yeah and they changed the defualt quite recently | 10:40 |
| TJ- | sounds like a no-brainer as they say, then | 10:41 |
| apw | if someone gives me the buglink i will add some commentary | 10:41 |
| TJ- | raidghost: yooo-hoooo, anyone home!?!? | 10:41 |
| apw | i am more suppriused it isn't something could be changed later, very odd | 10:41 |
| TJ- | apw: me too, you can change the minor numbers but not the major | 10:41 |
| apw | mostly those kinds of configs now define the number which are made by defualt | 10:42 |
| TJ- | like you suggested, maybe it was a reserved bufferse compromise | 10:42 |
| apw | for old s/w which cannot cope with asking for new ones | 10:42 |
| apw | i don't see it doing that, so i think it is just 8 ... noone could have more than 8 | 10:42 |
| TJ- | yeah, that's what I expected, but it is hard coded with no over-ride | 10:42 |
| raidghost | TJ-: of course anyone home :P | 10:42 |
| TJ- | raidghost: show us the buglink .. apw is raring to go :) | 10:42 |
| raidghost | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-hwe/+bug/1752692 | 10:43 |
| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1752692 in linux-hwe (Ubuntu) "Increase DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS from 8 to 16 in kernel config" [Undecided,New] | 10:43 |
| raidghost | not sure if its made the propper way. But i gave it a try | 10:43 |
| TJ- | raidghost: can you attach the system logs using "apport-collect 1752692" | 10:47 |
| raidghost | TJ-: Would that show everything? i know there has been some issues with mdraid and others. But now fixed. | 10:48 |
| TJ- | raidghost: it's the standard bug info collection tool, you could just attach the output of 'dmesg' ("dmseg > /tmp/dmesg.log") | 10:49 |
| raidghost | give me a sec. had to isntall python-apport | 10:55 |
| raidghost | weird. Bad bot go away. didnt like my links :P | 10:56 |
| raidghost | i use my ubuntu username and password. | 10:58 |
| raidghost | Something went wrong TJ- | 11:08 |
| TJ- | raidghost: just log-in to Launchpad and attach the captured dmesg output manually | 11:11 |
| LocutusOfBorg | hello guys | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | vboxvideo.ko: | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Running module version sanity check. | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Error! Module version 5.2.8_Ubuntu for vboxvideo.ko | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | is not newer than what is already found in kernel 4.15.0-10-generic (5.2.8_Ubuntu). | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | You may override by specifying --force. | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | this makes *no* sense | 11:12 |
| raidghost | Tj: so just use add a comment or attachment. and write in description dmesg and just upload file? | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | sforshee, apw^^^ AFAIK vboxvideo is from staging, and *can't* return such version | 11:12 |
| apw | LocutusOfBorg, indeed, the dkms version checker is bonkers | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I did modinfo and there is no 5.2.8 | 11:12 |
| apw | it cannot cope with the idea that the module you have has no version field but the dkms one does | 11:12 |
| apw | it is a bug in dkms | 11:12 |
| LocutusOfBorg | ack, thanks for confirming | 11:13 |
| LocutusOfBorg | so "if version == NULL" pass? | 11:13 |
| apw | it more correctly should sya, these two use different versioning so i cannot make any kind of judgement | 11:13 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I would like to fix it | 11:13 |
| apw | LocutusOfBorg, if we are using the in kernle one from 4.15 upwards then you can tell the dkms package that | 11:13 |
| apw | that it is not appopriate for that system | 11:13 |
| apw | obsolete after, something like that | 11:13 |
| TJ- | raidghost: yes, log-in to LP, at the bottom of the bug page there's the "Add atachment or patch" link | 11:15 |
| raidghost | TJ-: Done | 11:17 |
| TJ- | raidghost: you'll see apw has already adopted the bug so it's in progress | 11:18 |
| raidghost | thats why it says invalid on some affects? | 11:18 |
| TJ- | raidghost: correct, he's assigned it to the correct projects/packages | 11:19 |
| raidghost | I wrote 4 cards, since gonna install the last card tonight. Hoe that doesnt kill the prosess | 11:19 |
| TJ- | raidghost: the new default in mainline is to set the value to 16, which would support 4 adapters with 4 heads each | 11:20 |
| raidghost | Great <3 What time aspect do you think it will take? | 11:20 |
| TJ- | raidghost: can't say, but watch the bug report. It's a pretty trivial change. | 11:21 |
| raidghost | Thanks alot for help both you and apw. And the rest of ubuntu <3 | 11:22 |
| raidghost | breakfast time here in norway. See you later. | 11:23 |

| LocutusOfBorg | apw, this is even worse, the vboxvideo from vbox-guest-dkms is not installed at all now | 11:26 |
| apw | right because it thinks the one we have is good | 11:39 |
| LocutusOfBorg | I found a fix | 11:51 |
| LocutusOfBorg | that 5.2.8 was leftover from previous modules verification, initializing it with 0 makes everything work | 11:52 |
| LocutusOfBorg | and the check with version not found is: 5.2.8 > 0 -> install | 11:53 |
| LocutusOfBorg | this is the patch: | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | vboxvideo.ko: | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Running module version sanity check. | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | Error! Module version 5.2.8_Ubuntu for vboxvideo.ko | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | is not newer than what is already found in kernel 4.15.0-10-generic (5.2.8_Ubuntu). | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | You may override by specifying --force. | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | oops | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | get_module_verinfo() | 11:54 |
| LocutusOfBorg | there is an "unset res", but seems to be not unsetting res[1] res[0] res[2] | 11:55 |
| LocutusOfBorg | so, I added res[0]=0 res[1]=0 res[2]=0 | 11:55 |
| LocutusOfBorg | seems working | 11:55 |
| LocutusOfBorg | dkms uploaded | 12:15 |
| * LocutusOfBorg feels dirty | 12:15 | |
| LocutusOfBorg | now apw with this dkms, the testsuite will pass, and fail once you merge 5.2.8 in the kernel | 12:25 |
| LocutusOfBorg | the usual stuff | 12:26 |
| apw | LocutusOfBorg, yep, great, thanks | 12:54 |

| apw | when a userprocess sleeps it asks the krenel to do something | 13:07 |
| apw | and then schedules away to run something else, which may be idle | 13:07 |
| apw | if the machine is not doing anything | 13:07 |
| apw | but it is not in userspace when it is not doing something | 13:07 |
| apw | which is how it multi-tasks | 13:07 |
