guivercvorlon, the lubuntu dailiess that now boot on bios boxes (Thank you!) aren't giving a "Kernel requires an x86-64 CPU  .. i686 detected" which historically they've provided, do you care? or does this matter?  want bug report or ignore?05:35
* guiverc suspects that would cause slower boots on amd64? and thus would be won't fix..05:39
xnoxguiverc:  historically they've provided => provided i386 isos, or i386 kernel? lubuntu stopped that, a while ago.08:37
xnoxguiverc:  i'm not sure what you mean, and curious to understand.08:38
guivercI realize that; xnox, but in testing I've always 2-3 times per cycle booted an amd64 ISO on a 32-bit only box looking for a valid error message like what I mentioned..  I'm only getting a blinking cursor (no error "Kernel requires an x86-64 CPU  but only detected i686"08:39
guivercthe message has changed over time..08:41
xnoxguiverc:  ooooh, i see, interesting.08:46
cjwatsonThat message is from the kernel - I don't think it was ever an Ubuntu customisation.  But maybe if something fails before getting as far as the kernel then that would cause you not to see it.08:47
guivercxnox, to be accurate; I do see grub selected (lubuntu, lubuntu nomodeset type selection) then blinking cursor08:47
xnoxyeah, bios grub is "i386"08:48
cjwatsonIt's still there upstream at least (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/x86/boot/cpu.c#n73)08:49
xnoxi wonder if it fails to decompress? because we switched to LZ4 compressed kernel?08:51
xnox(and with gzip, maybe grub used to uncompress the kernel, although don't think so)08:53
guiverchow long ago was the switch?  (I'm wondering if I have an iso before that for comparison)08:54
xnoxhm, but also we switched from isolinux to grub-pc on iso which is another variable.08:55
xnoxguiverc:  do you see that message with any focal iso?08:56
* guiverc was just looking for a 20.04.1 iso08:56
xnoxif yes, it's isolinux => grub switch08:56
guiverc"This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU" for what my list-thumb-drives says is kubuntu 20.04.1  (booting on amd64 to confirm08:59
guiverckubuntu 20.04.1  /etc/apt/sources.list says 2020-07-31  (I only ever grab dailies); can't recall what official will say09:04
guiverc20.04.1 was 2020-08-06 sil's notice09:04
slyonHey, could somebody please re-trigger this 0.100-0ubuntu3 arm64 test for me? https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/netplan.io/groovy/arm64 It passed on all other architectures, but failed on arm64 due to a "no such file or directly" error on a file, which is clearly written during the test.. It might have been a flaky situation.09:16
seb128slyon, hey, retried now09:17
slyonthank you09:17
seb128np!09:18
guivercI filed bug report 189595609:52
=== gusnan is now known as Guest61917
slyonhmm... My netplan/arm64 test failed again :-/ ... The test creates a /netplan-dummy.service file, reboots, and moves it to /run/systemd/system/ after reboot. This file is missing after reboot (or not created at all?) on arm64, while it works on the other architectures... The other file created during the same test (/etc/systemd/system/cloud-init-dummy.service) works just fine on all architectures.12:16
slyonDoes anybody have an idea what could cause this file to be missing/deleted on the arm64 autopkgtest runner?12:16
zygastgraber: hello, I have a question about using lxd inside lxd inside ubuntu 16.0412:32
zygastgraber: is that configuration supported?12:33
zygastgraber: we have few problems with a test that checks that12:33

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1892468 in snapd "Nested lxd test useful?" [Undecided,New]12:33
stgraberzyga: possibly a dbus bug which got fixed in later releases? Nested containers don't get their own apparmor namespace so they don't get mac_admin which probably explains that sysfs behavior.12:42
zygaah12:42
zygacan you comment on the bug please12:42
zygaI think this explains a bit12:42
stgraberzyga: does running 18.04 in the nested container fix it? If so, that would strongly point to sending in dbus having been fixed12:42
zygarunning 18.04 on the host and containers does fix ti12:43
zyga*it12:43
zygathe test we have matches host/container systems12:43
stgraberRight but that's changing a lot of variables, would be interesting to change just the nested container to see if it's something that got fixed in more recent Ubuntu or if the fix is coming from kernel or policy changes on the host12:44
zygastgraber: I can play and report back12:45
zygastgraber: but for the purpose of the bug, do you think that test is valid?12:45
zygashould we pursue backporting fixes to dbus?12:45
seb128LocutusOfBorg, hey, any update on the gstreamer merges?13:34
LocutusOfBorgseb128, I syncd stuff the bad1.0 is probably finished, test building shortly15:34
seb128LocutusOfBorg, thanks15:34
LocutusOfBorgseb128, bad is done, lets do good now, but its pita16:03
LocutusOfBorgseb128, I might have also the good one in my ppa16:50
LocutusOfBorgwill need some additional i386 fixes, not sure if we can drop new dependencies added in 1.1816:50
LocutusOfBorghttps://launchpad.net/~costamagnagianfranco/+archive/ubuntu/locutusofborg-ppa16:51
LocutusOfBorglets see how far we go, we might also need to ship again pkgconfig files, but with meson... meh!16:51
Laneydon't drop that stuff16:53
Laneyit lets our plugin moves work transparently16:53
vorlonxnox: LP: #1895956 - do you think we should worry about fixing this?17:08

tjaaltonjuliank: you should attach a dmesg dump there17:38
julianktjaalton: hmm, why didn't ubuntu-bug do that?17:38
juliankstrange17:39
tjaaltonprobably because the user has no access to it anymore?17:39

juliankoh17:40
juliankI'll journalctl -k it17:40
juliankI'll add a bug for apport17:41
julianktjaalton: done17:46
tjaaltontext/html ;)17:48
=== ijohnson|lunch is now known as ijohnson
julianktjaalton: sorry, fixed17:57
julianktjaalton: it also posted twice, so fixed that too :/17:57
tjaaltonhum, still shows it unreadable here17:58
tjaaltonanyway, next would be to test newer kernels.. and if it's not fixed in drm-intel-next, file it upstream18:05
julianktjaalton: well, i can try 5.9.0-rc5 from mainline ppa18:14
juliankit's a shame mainline ppa has no signed kernels18:14
juliankor well ppa to add, it's so hard :/18:16
tjaaltonjust download two files and install them18:17
tjaaltonkernel and modules18:17
tjaaltonit has drm-intel-next builds too18:17
juliankFound that18:18
juliankI have secure boot enabled, so need to enroll the kernel hash into mok18:18
juliankbut oh well18:18
juliankbooted with disabled validation, oh well18:25
juliankHey, I'd be fine doing human CI on kernels, really18:26
nicolasbockHi, lately emacs-gtk keeps crashing. I can't find an open bug for it though.18:38
