lotuspsychjewelcome pa14:26
pathanks!14:26
lotuspsychjewich fix are you talking about?14:26
palotuspsychje: this one:14:26
pahttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X1_Carbon_(Gen_7)#Microphone14:27
lotuspsychjepa: the current kernel on 20.04 is 5.4.0-12-generic14:28
pa19.10 has 5.3.0 too14:28
lotuspsychjepa: in this stage alot of things are still under development, you could test a daily for your issue perhaps?14:28
pabut apparently it's not sufficient to have this working14:28
palotuspsychje: the question is if those extra files are included14:29
paSOF firmware14:29
pahttps://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=24990014:29
lotuspsychjepa: try a daily, see if it works or not14:30
paok will try on a pendrive :)14:30
lotuspsychjepa: did you file a bug for your issue on ubuntu?14:30
panope14:31
lotuspsychjepa: ok, try the current daily 5.4 kernel first, if you can reproduce, come back and we can debug more14:31
lotuspsychjepa: another option is play with the !mainline kernels on your current ubuntu version14:32
pathanks14:35
lotuspsychjepa: the ubuntu-kernel guys might also know wich commits are included, in wich kernel, but thats handy when you have an existing ubuntu bug about it14:37
tartleyHi folks. I'm looking for advice on whether (and where) to file bug for things that don't work for me since I upgraded 19.10 -> focal (dev)17:34
lotuspsychjetartley: 20.04 is currently still in development17:34
tartleyI realize that. Are you saying I should not file any bugs with problems I fiond?17:35
lotuspsychjetartley: we strongly advice to help test bugs with the daily iso instead of upgrades in this stage17:35
lotuspsychjetartley: this will avoid making extra work for the developers, finding the original bug17:35
tartleyAh. I see.  Thanks for spelling it out.  I upgraded on what I heard as the instruction to canonical employees from mr shuttleworth. Maybe I misunderstood what was expected.17:36
lotuspsychjetartley: the instruction?17:37
tartleymy manager said that at the recent cape town sprint, mark decided that canonical folks (or some subset) should install focal for their daily use, to help with testing.17:37
tartleySo my team is migrating our dev laptops to focal. I'm the only one hit any problems, so far.17:38
lotuspsychjedaily use to find bug, from installing the daily is indeed what we aim17:38
tartleyDo you think I should tell me team not to do that?17:38
tartleyRight, I don't *think* any of us knew that, but maybe that is just me, I am new.17:39
lotuspsychjeyes we need all the help bug out17:39
tartleyok, I'll go confer with team. Thanks for getting me yup to speed.17:39
lotuspsychjetartley: testing the upgrade path is usefull too, sure, but at one point someone will ask anyway: can you reproduce this on a daily17:39
diddledanspeaking of bugs. with the changes in LP 1776447 I'm hitting a new one in libgl1-mesa-dri when using IGLX (Indirect GLX) with a specific demo application. I just mentioned this in #ubuntu-desktop, but I can restate here 'cos I'm running focal with my new build of Xorg based on the debdiffs in that bug - I don't think this is a regression from those17:42
diddledanchanges because it is in a separate library (mesa) and only occurs with the specific application - other apps (glxgears and supertuxkart) work enough that the xorg doesn't quit while the app in question kills xorg via segv in mesa17:42
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1776447 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xorg's Indirect GLX broken from upstream regression" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/177644717:42
diddledanbacktrace: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cqrqq4FZWD/17:43
lotuspsychjediddledan: at this point, im facing alot of xorg bugs too, and i havent found yet the exact relation of it17:44
diddledanthe person who wrote the library and the demo app that uses it (igl) says they're currently using it without issue on Xenial - IGLX was broken after Xenial until my fixes in that issue17:44
tomreyntartley: which role do you work in roughly, software development, system administration, or something else?17:44
tartleySoftware dev, snap store team.17:44
diddledanthe annoying thing is without my fixes in the LP issue I can't verify if the mesa bug is still present because IGLX is broken in Xorg without those fixes and so I can't reach this new crash without them17:45
tomreyntartley: oh, but you're working for a 3rd party, not Canonical itself, right?17:45
tartleyno, for canonical17:45
tomreyntartley: oh, ok. then us volunteers here can probably not recommend something.17:46
tomreyntartley: there's amn internal IRC for Cannoical employees you should probably bring this to17:46
tartleyI'll look for channels there. thanks.17:46
diddledanthat obviously means I cannot rule out my Xorg changes having a regression17:47

diddledanoh golly, GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY sounds nasty17:57
diddledanand you gotta love having a fun lockfile! :-p18:04
lotuspsychjesounds different then your bug diddledan 18:07
diddledanyeah, quite different by the looks18:09
lotuspsychjediddledan: i also have a dock ontop bug and an iwlwifi kernel oops bug :p18:26
diddledanoh wow, you've had it bad!18:27
lotuspsychjethe dock bug is confirmed, more users got it18:27

tomreyntartley: what i should have said / meant to say: us volunteers are not who should suggest how to interpret company policy, but i'm sure that if Mark suggested parts of the company should test focal early "eat your own dogfood" style then it's probably also to ensure bugs are filed (and maybe not just on fresh daily builds). generally, i'm sure good bug reports are appreciated (and if you have questions before filing any here's a good place).18:49
tartleytomreyn, that makes sense to me.19:08
tartleyI did file one, "all bitmap fonts no longer visible" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/186134019:08
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1861340 in Ubuntu "All bitmap fonts no longer visible after upgrade 19.10 -> Focal (development)" [Undecided,New]19:08
tartleyand a bot suggested I need to pick a package to associate. I don't know how to figure that out.19:09
lotuspsychjetartley: normally we try to use ubuntu-bug packagename from terminal to file bugs19:11
tartleylotuspsychje, thanks. I might do that, and delete this one. It auto-gathers relevant info, I take it?19:11
tomreynyes, it does collect logs and some info. but you don't need to delete this report, you can just add this info later.19:12
lotuspsychjetartley: dont need to delete it, you can still add a package in your current bug, and yes ubuntu-bug collects19:12
tomreynbut first let's find a suitable package to reassign to19:12
tartleyThanks for any ideas. I appreciate the help, obvs.19:13
tomreynyou mention some commands and envronmental information (desktop environment) which could help identify a package to file this against19:13
tomreyndpkg -S /path/to/somefile    helps you idfentify the package a given file or command belongs to.19:14
tomreynso if you can name a command or file which is closely related to what does not work as expected, this can hint on the package to file against19:15
tartleySure, I'm aware of that. But I don't think this is a problem with the font (many fonts from third part sources fail in the same way). I'm not installing a package, I'm copying font files and re-running "fc-cache" or "dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig".19:16
tartleyThey seem to run ok (fc-list shows the fonts) but the fonts don't display on screen, nor appear in gui font selectors.19:16
tomreyntartley: so maybe it has to do with fontconfig, or with gnome-shell, mutter, or similar?19:17
tartleyAll sound like good guesses. I'm not sure how to track it down though.19:18
tomreynmaybe if you have another graphical desktop installed you could check whether ti also happens there19:18
tartleythat's a good idea. I don't but could do...19:18
tomreynor if you know how to do this in a different X-ish way without having to install a full desktop that would probably work, too19:19
tomreyni wouldn't know myself, i'm afraid19:19
tartleysure, I can figure that out. OK, thanks for the thoughts.19:19
tomreyncool once you came up with a good package and have reassigned it as discussed in comment 1 of your bug report, be sure to add log files using: apport-collect 186134019:21
tomreyni just searched the web for "gnome-shell bitmap fonts" and ran into this: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/issues/38619:23
tartleycool, good find. Thank you!19:25
tomreyna gnome project bug report about the pango software and its (claimed?) lack of support for 'old-style' BDF bitmap fonts. i have not read the full bug report, and it's closed (upstream), too, but this may suggest what you're seeing can be related to the "pango" software19:25
tartleyYes. I'm reading through the thread and links now.19:32
diddledanso, I can trigger this bug in mesa-dri at will.. how do I get the specific piece of code that is triggering the crash with gdb? I can attach the gdb fine and get the backtrace, I just don't know the command to get the line of code that is failing within gdb20:00
tomreyndiddledan: do you have ddebs installed?20:30
diddledanyup20:30
diddledanvalgrind thinks I'm hitting stack overflow, so it might not be much help20:31
tomreynhmm bt or bt full should return it then, i guess. but i'm not really into programming20:31
tomreynmaybe try #ubuntu-devel or some C channel20:33
