[Bug 346691] Re: jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable.
This bug has been open for two months, and was fixed upstream some time ago, but not in Ubuntu. As a consequence, 2.6.28-11-generic and 2.6.28-11-server - the production release media kernels deliver silent and show-stopping data corruption, to the extent that the kernel kills user processes accessing parts of the filesystem corrupted in a particular way. That's as game over as it can get, and damaging for Ubuntu's image. On the upside, there are a bunch of related fixes upstream for if the Ubuntu kernel is rebased to a newer point release, and the patch posted two months ago [1], is also probably the fixer. What else do we need?

I was also a victim of this bug, in which I experienced the following: 1. My applications started receiving segfaults. I tried to strace them and found that the segfaults were mostly due to problems with files (corrupted files) 2. Then my administrative applications started segfaulting and after that my kernel wouldn't boot as a results in a heavily corrupted file system. I ran fsck.ext3 on my boot partition and all the files were corrupted. To solve: Reinstalled ubuntu from the live CD and updated the kernel to the 2.6.29-020629. So far I have had no problem. I am a little surprised that my brother who has a 32 bit system does not have this problem with the 2.6.28-11 kernel and as it seams that only 64bit systems are affected. Can anyone with 32 bit system confirm this. I also believe that it has to do with how files are written/updated as many of the errors that fsck reported were: 1. Inode referenced in future data 2. Inode reference count too high 3. Unattached Inodes Another note is that none of my boot files (as my grub is on its own partition) were corrupted.

I agree that it is not acceptable to release a so called stable version being aware of such a serious bug. Fuchur: I have compiled kernel 2.6.29.1 (2.6.29.2 is already available but I have not tested it) a few weeks ago and I have not had any issues since then. You can download precompiled packages from the Ubuntu site (I do not have the URL) and install them with dpkg.

I guess all three methods are actually the same. Just a few kernel configuration options change.

I have also tried a Gentoo method with uvesafb with no better luck. However, regular Ubuntu installations also give similar problems if you install the proprietary NVIDIA or ATI drivers.

since this is such a showstopper for everyone with this hardware config I'd really appreciate any dev comment. is anybody working on the issue? do you need more information? what can be done to track down the error? we're close to the official release. this could turn into a disaster for a lot of regular users upgrading to jaunty.

I found out after rebooting to try and install the new kernel that my partition was too far gone to boot up anymore, so I had to reinstall. I also want to add that I found out that when I reinstalled Kubuntu RC for the fourth time that even if I don't upgrade to the latest kernel, it still messes things up.

Oooh, I found something else interesting out. It's too bad it's this close to release, but it seems the upgrade to the .29 kernel also fixed a bug I(and others) seemed to have about network manager not connecting to encrypted networks. So far, I am able to connect to my WEP wifi hotspot which I couldn't do on livecd or fresh install. I will try my university's WPA2 Enterprise connection next.

[Bug 346691] Re: jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable.
Just to bump. Problem is still here. 2.6.28-9 is stable, 2.6.28-11 is unusable on this hardware. As all hardware is currently working, I have no problem in living with -9, but am worried about the problem. Today I just tried again with 2.6.28-11.41 just to have program segfaulting after a minute or two, and a filesystem repair process at startup. Now I am with ext4, cannot report anymore on jfs. I have read all patches introduced in the -9 - -11 jump, and I was unable to find something really interesting. Jaunty will for sure ship with 2.6.28, and as we are 10 days now from release, the problem is better handled by some kernel people. I decided to go unstable just to help, as I am a somewhat experienced user who knows how to recover from backups and knows how to live with system hiccups. If we are here to build a community system, someone has to test it, and discover bugs for not experienced users to avoid them. Ubuntu, was something about community, or am I missing something? I am plenty of options to live bleeding edge, am here just to help the Ubuntu project. I won't stay with Jaunty, will jump on Karmik as soon as it starts its development phase: lot of bug reporters will be available for official release, and I am of much help ahead of them. -- jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 346691] Re: jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable.
@god-mok: when you install a beta version you take some risks. as far as I know, the problem only happens when you upgrade the kernel. so if you stick to the kernel provided by the installation CD (2.6.28-9) until the problem is solved, you should be safe. I guess this is a problem specific to the Ubuntu kernel 2.6.28-11. I upgraded to the latest Linux kernel (2.6.29.1) because I wanted to. but I was not recommending or even suggesting to anybody to do so. cheers -- jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@mirix: too bad, if someone knows what he have to do, than it's no problem, but i don't think thats the idea behind everything. As long as there is no support it's not such a good idea, right? Today I had another crash. I reinstalled again, and after reboot the bug came at first boot, not as always at the second after the freeze. So like again, I mounted my home partition manually and everything worked so far. Updates and diver installed, added some repos to my source list and than there was the freeze again. Thought it could be some new package problem, but it happened not, because i reinstalled again, and after the first save boot i didn't do anything. I let it run for almost 30 minutes, than i rebooted. Same problem, so i had to mount manually, but sometimes it didn't worked. There was a notice after the failed boot, something like two files share same sector/inode in a folder /home/god-mok/???/a9...x86_64... Too bad I have no ???-folder and i didn't memorized the whole numbers so thats all now. The numbers looked like a md5 hash until it reached x86_64.

[Bug 346691] Re: jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable.
The patch mentioned above was suspected by me to cause lot of trouble, but it NEEDS to be something related also to HW configuration. Tried today again with 2.6.28-11 and got EXACTLY same behaviour as god- mok. I was really lucky to recover filesystem and get back here. AGAIN: No Problem with 2.6.28-9. System gets unusable (actually all filesystem can be lost, and if You call it unusable, I do prefer destroyed, as I had multiple times to recover from backups) using 2.6.28-11 for more than some minutes. I repeat: Seems something related ALSO to hardware, as I have tried the same schema on multiple hardware (fresh install with 2.6.28-9, then update to 2.6.28-11) and I had problems ONLY on my notebook. Please god-mok, would You please post the output of lshw, as I have not find complete specs of Your Clevio?

[Bug 346691] Re: jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable.
sorry, totaly forgotten. Here is my lshw file. At the time i have no battery attached, but doesn't matter, 'cause it was the same. And yeah, our hardware seems very simmilar. Only thing is i do not have the Bluetooth-Module. Everything else is veri similar to my hardware. Oh yeah, and another thing: I tried to recover files with testdisk and some other programs, but most of it failed. I found some Pics and some movie files (totaly splitted) and so it was totaly lost time. But before that, ich checked the partitions like everyone. I even tried it with ext3 and ext4 with my home partition, but it was the same: many inodes issues (199), and after that nothing changed. Rerun the check, and it happend the same again, as it could not be changed (read only). As i checked every time the disk, then once something happend: fsck tried to change the filesystem ext4 to ext2. I don't know why that happened, and it also didn't worked, but I tried :) Maybe the last point doesn't matter, but for me it was very strange... Oh, and under livecd i could not find the home partition with gparted, but the root partition was ok, and i could even mount it. Well, i think even now why the system thinks it is on read only status, but i can manage, change and do everything with the files... If you need any more specific hardware details, than ask. I will gladly look at my paper for it. ** Attachment added: lshw.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24783617/lshw.txt -- jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11 kernel update renders the system un-usable. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
