HaxxaWhat is ubuntu-ports?04:24
lotuspsychje!discuss | Haxxa 04:24
ubottuHaxxa: Want to talk about Ubuntu, but don't have a support question? /join #ubuntu-discuss for non-support Ubuntu discussion, or try #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat. Thanks!04:24
HaxxaFor 20.04 the mirror I am using is http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports in my sources?04:24
Haxxalotuspsychje, its related to my question about upgrading 20.04 on my raspi04:25
HaxxaI am running Ubuntu 20.04 on my Raspberry Pi04:25
Haxxaand I was wondering if this was the official source and if I can just apt upgrade to official 20.04 on release04:25
lotuspsychjeHaxxa: the official daily 20.04 iso's are in the topic here04:28
Haxxalotuspsychje, this is what I used, are these not official: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-preinstalled/current/HEADER.html04:30
lotuspsychjelooks legit to me04:33
dngray[m]20.04 here we come04:43
Haxxalotuspsychje, sure does just not sure why the repo is ubuntu-ports rather than the normal repo04:49
dngray[m]thinking this fresh machine, i might install with 20.04 (as it probably won't get used for half a month)04:55
dngray[m]and by then it should all be frozen, for my friend who's going to take ownership04:56
dngray[m]enough time for me to make sure everything works04:56
dngray[m]pretty bog standard configuration, AMD 3700X, amdgpu04:57
dngray[m]that way he won't have to upgrade it as soon as getting it 🙂04:57
Haxxadngray[m], makes sense05:32
dngray[m]in fact could actually be worthwhile as i think the newer kernel had some amdgpu fixes05:33
dngray[m]for 5700XT navi cards05:33
bigfoot-Hmm.  After upgrading to focal, hibernate-disk seems to be broken.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hibernate/+bug/186698411:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1866984 in hibernate (Ubuntu) "hibernate-disk resumes instantly" [Undecided,New]11:07
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: have you tested to reproduce this on a clean daily yet?12:18
pragmaticenigmadngray[m]: Are you still in? If you are... I would not recommend installing 20.04 as the version you will be installing is going to be in dev mode. Meaning that when work starts on 20.10, the machine will start upgrading packages being worked on for the 20.10 release. Always use with the current supported releases like such as 16.04, 18.04, and 19.10. Especially if you plan on giving this machine to someone else12:28
dngray[m]yes i am12:29
dngray[m]<pragmaticenigma "dngray: Are you still in? If you"> ah okay12:29
dngray[m]i'd kinda hoped that wouldn't be the case12:29
dngray[m]in the past with Debian, i had very close to released used testing net install media12:29
dngray[m]which ended up just becoming "stable"12:30
dngray[m]would i have to wait for RC1 for that?12:30
dngray[m]it'd have the focal codename, for the apt repositories, so i'm not sure why things from 20.10 would be pulled in12:30
pragmaticenigmadngray[m]: Because apt would be set to pull from the dev channel12:30
dngray[m]ah12:31
dngray[m]so works a bit differently to how i remember then12:31
dngray[m]might just wait then, until it's released and go and update it12:32
pragmaticenigmadngray[m]: Personally I wait until July or August when 20.04.1 is released. Usually by then any lingering bugs from the initial release have been flushed out and the system is quite stable12:33
dngray[m]well that's true i guess12:33
dngray[m]no rush i guess, the auto updater works pretty awesome from memory12:33
dngray[m]ie to switch from one supported release to another12:33
dngray[m]and nothing should be different in terms of (filesystem, dmcrypt, etc) between those two releases so won't need a fresh install12:34
pragmaticenigmadngray[m]: If you want to avoid the large influx of updates, post install, I'd recommend installing from the mini.iso. That installer pulls packages from the Internet during install. And those are always the most up-to-date12:34
dngray[m]i already did do that12:34
dngray[m]had the system ready to give to friend for 2 months, but couldn't because we were waiting on DoA RAM12:35
dngray[m]and there's been major shortages of samsung ram, due to the power failure in the south korean facility12:35
dngray[m]so i already had installed 19.10 on it12:36
pragmaticenigmacool12:36
dngray[m](and it sat in its box unused for 2 months) lol.12:36
pragmaticenigma2 months... far number of updates, but nothing that will take hours at this point12:37
dngray[m]there's a few machines i'm planning on updating to 20.04 for friends/family12:37
pragmaticenigma*fair12:37
dngray[m]i have deb cache anyway on my server12:37
dngray[m]so will take longer to download than install hehe12:38
dngray[m]err install than download12:38
bigfoot-lotuspsychje: No.12:46
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: can you try please, then describe that in the bug ID you found?12:46
bigfoot-lotuspsychje: since this requires a full install on a HDD (hibernate from a live DVD or USB stick doesn't make much sense), I'm not sure whether I can soon spend the time and effort to find a suitable machine and set it up with a daily.12:56
bigfoot-maybe I'll try it in a virtual environment later.12:58
Haxxa"Welcome to Ubuntu Focal Fossa (development branch)" will that become "Welcome to Ubuntu Focal Fossa" upon release?13:01
lotuspsychje!final | Haxxa 13:01
ubottuHaxxa: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Focal and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 20.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade » in a terminal.13:01
Haxxaok 13:02
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: is this your bug report, or reported from someone else?13:02
HaxxaI have some production machines that won't be used until october, can I install focal now and upgrade later in April to full release, just like its production install?13:03
Haxxaas they aren't in production yet13:03
Haxxahave free time due to Carona virus so its ideal timing right now13:03
lotuspsychjeHaxxa: production machines, use the LTS way and wait for upgrade till 20.04.1 comes out13:03
lotuspsychjefrom 18.04 that is13:04
bigfoot-lotuspsychje: Mine.13:05
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: could you also attach your dmesg to the bug report please?13:05
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: and maybe also your computer brand/model in the description13:06
bigfoot-IMHO the most interesting part is already in the report13:09
bigfoot-let's see, maybe I can reproduce this in KVM.13:11
bigfoot-(with a clean install from focal dev daily)13:11
bigfoot-I attached the requested info.  And it seems I can reproduce the issue with a clean kubuntu focal dev install within KVM / QEMU.13:23
=== pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka
bigfoot-added reproduction info to the bug report.13:32
lotuspsychjeok tnx bigfoot- 13:34
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: your first dmesg on the lenovo, gives alot of acpi errors inside, i wonder if its your machine specific bugging13:35
bigfoot-A colleague of mine could reproduce this issue on a completely different machine.13:35
lotuspsychjebigfoot-: did he also affect the bug?13:36
bigfoot-Yes.13:36
lotuspsychjeok great13:36
bigfoot-And, as I said: I can reproduce this within KVM13:36
bigfoot-(steps to reproduce are in the bug report now)13:36
bigfoot-... and: This has worked on my Lenovo for a long time, up until and including Ubuntu 19.10.13:40
pragmaticenigmabigfoot-: I'm not 100% certain, but I have a hard time believing testing hibernate in a VM is a valid test. As the VM may or maynot have that as part of the simulated system BIOS13:41
bigfoot-I'm not sure whether there's any hard requirement to HW when it comes to hibernation; after all, the system is fully powered off afterwards, and boots normally until Linux realizes it's been hibernated before.13:42
bigfoot-But it's possible that you're right, yes.  However, I don't have the means right now to do this on a real install on real HW.13:43
bigfoot-I'll test this with Ubuntu 19.10.13:44
bigfoot-Ubuntu 19.10 shows a different behavior: hibernate-disk seems to actually save the state, and powers off the (virtual) machine.  Resuming, however, doesn't work; I'm not sure whether this is due to the fact that in a default install, swap is /swapfile instead of a separate partition.14:29
bigfoot-works with the proper resume=/swapfile kernel param.  Will do some more testing with 20.04, maybe I can get this to work after all.14:42
=== oerheks1 is now known as oerheks
bigfoot-pragmaticenigma: I think I juts proved you wrong; I successfully hibernate-disk and resume on a clean eoan install in qemu-kvm, and can reproduce the faulty behavior with focal there as well.16:05
bigfoot-s/juts/just/16:05
pragmaticenigmai never  said  it couldn't be done... I said that the archesture of the VM may not fully emulate what would happen on a install the main hardware. The VM could map power states to other states to satisfy the triggers within the guest system. So no... you really haven't proved anything. you're testing a feature that is intended for system that are run on actual hardware, not in a virtualized instance16:07
bigfoot-Well.  At least it works in the KVM/QEMU environment exactly as it should, using a clean 19.10 Eoan install; and it exhibits exactly the faulty behaviour I see on the real hardware when trying the same with a clean 20.04 Focal install.16:11
bigfoot-Close enough for me.16:11
Ussat...16:12
pragmaticenigmaso many apples... so many oranges16:13
UssatYou can compare a VM with physical in a LOT of ways, BIOS is not one of them16:15
bigfoot-I don't really get what I could do more; I found a regression bug in 20.04, reproducible to be a regression from 19.10 to 20.04 on two different pieces of hardware *and* in KVM.  Provided the exact steps to reproduce the issue with KVM (and probably also any other real HW).16:15
bigfoot-That QEMU's BIOS isn't the same as Lenovo's is not something I dispute.16:16
bigfoot-But unless I'm seeing two different bugs at once -- possible, but I don't see any indication for that -- fixing this in QEMU should also fix it on real HW.16:18
lotuspsychjethis is just why i always advice to test clean dailys 16:19
lotuspsychjeto avoid all the noise around16:19
bigfoot-That's what I did, in a VM environment.16:20
pragmaticenigmabigfoot-: There are 8 different power states that can be defined by the system hardware. 3 of them can be used in various combinations to achieve "Hibernate" ... This is why hardware testing is more valid than your VM... Hibernate can be accomplished with different approaches. The most basic is where the OS dumps RAM to disk and then triggers G3. After that there is S4, which is almost the same but leaves some hardware enabled, 16:20
pragmaticenigmato allow for a faster startup when full power is provided again or to recover in the event power is lost during the S4 state.16:20
lotuspsychjeyeah well like pragmaticenigma said, VM's are not always great for testing bugs16:20
pragmaticenigmaPower states are among the hardest things to troubleshoot. As you can't exactly capture system states after power is cut to the system.16:23
pragmaticenigmaThat is my primary reason in all support that I do, when someone says suspend-to-ram or suspend-to-disk isn't working... that it's better to find something that does work reliably, than to try and troubleshoot something, that is quite possibly a BIOS/systemfirmware or an edge case where the manufacture didn't follow specifications in order to cut costs.16:25
bigfoot-a) it worked before, for years and dozens of kernel versions  b) it shows the same behavior in a controlled VM environment16:26
pragmaticenigmabigfoot-: drop the part about VMs and you have a valid bug report16:26
