[Bug 993187] Re: ubuntu 12.04 completely freezes frequently.

2012-09-12 Thread Junjie Wu
I have the same problem.  It only randomly freezes when I have webpages
actively playing flash videos (firefox and chrome).  When the system
freezes, I can't move my mouse or keyboard, existing terminal output
also freezes and I can't even ssh into my machine.

In addition, my HDD LED keeps flashing, which means my disk should be
spinning really hard.  I've scanned my disk, but found no bad sector.  I
also mounted /tmp as tmpfs, and redirect firefox temp folder to /tmp.  I
believe flash buffer videos in /tmp as well (correct me if I am wrong).
So I don't understand why my disk keeps spinning during the freeze...

[Bug 993187] Re: ubuntu 12.04 completely freezes frequently.

2012-09-12 Thread Junjie Wu
Hi Christian,

Looks like maintaining an active ssh session remotely is the only way to
troubleshoot this issue.  My desktop just froze again, and firefox
/plugin-container (flash) was consuming 100% CPU.   Killing flash
unfreezes the desktop.  For the websites I visit, flash usually consumes
10%-20% CPU.

I didn't see your comment before last crash.  I will report RAM and
.xsession-errors next time I experience the issue.  I also plan to
Ctrl+Alt+F1 to check if I can open a new tty session.

2012-09-12 Thread Junjie Wu
Ahh, that's embarrasing.  My fault.  I was compiling LLVM 3.1 on a 4G
machine, while browsing with many many tabs.  When the link stage
starts, it consumes lots of RAM and forces the system to swap.  I
confirmed the RAM thrashing from a remote top.  I didn't expect
compiling LLVM to use that much RAM.

That's where my mouse movement becomes sluggish and finally freezes.
Flash player either crashes or freezes and cosumes 100% CPU during
swapping.  Killing flash is really not the action which restores the
system.  Only after ld fails, my system becomes responsive again.

Please revisit this bug.  I use Ctrl-Alt-W/S/A/D to switch between
workspaces, and this bugs prevent me from setting up fast workspace
switching.

Even a dirty workaround is appreciated.  Thanks.

[Bug 900994] [NEW] incorrect output of mktime or sth else

2011-12-06 Thread Junjie Wu
Public bug reported:

I have some weird output for the attached simple code. I tested on different 
machines and the following line is what I used to compile/run the code. 
for i in {1..10}; do rm -f date  g++ -o date -Wall -Wextra date2.cc  
./date; done

I am in EST timezone (GMT-5), and expected output is: 
2011 1 1 0 0 5
18000

All gcc/g++ are installed using the package system without any
customization.

Btw, I am aware of the fact that the behavior seems to be independent of the 
version of gcc/g++, but Ubuntu version. I only tested all gcc/g++ versions 
available in the package system. On 11.04, gcc always output correctly and g++ 
produce inconsistent results. On 11.10, gcc/g++ all produce wrong results 
consistently (off by -3600). This could be some bug outside gcc/g++, but should 
at least be a problem of Ubuntu configuration. The machines used here are all 
independently installed/configured by different people. 

Another side note: 
If I remove line 8 and 9, the behavior will be different. On 11.04, it's the 
same. On 11.10, gcc will consistently output 14400, while g++ output 
inconsistently (18000 or 14400).

After more debugging, I can confirm it's a runtime problem. If I change
the command to:

for i in {1..10}; do ./date; done

Same thing still happens.

[Bug 797006] [NEW] software-center package update failure due to the use of update-alternatives

2011-06-13 Thread Junjie Wu
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

After using update-alternatives to switch between python versions
recently, the update of software-center failed. I do realize that it
needs python 2.7 and switched python back to 2.7 using update-
alternatives. It turns out that it's the link itself, which might be
fixed in /usr/bin/pycentral.

Result of running apt-get install -f, when it failed:

and track the link down:
/usr/bin/python - /etc/alternatives/python*
/etc/alternatives/python - /usr/bin/python2.7*

To confirm that it's the link caused software-center's update failure, I
used update-alternatives --remove-all to remove the python link,
recreated it to point directly to /usr/bin/python2.7, and the apt-get
install proceeded fine.

joining /usr/bin/python and version number.

[Bug 797006] Re: software-center package update failure due to the use of update-alternatives

2011-06-13 Thread Junjie Wu
My suggestion is to change the check in /usr/share/pycentral-
data/pyversions.py to directly check the python version, instead of
joining /usr/bin/python and version number.

Sorry I got the detail wrong. After carefully examining /usr/share
/pycentral-data/pyversions.py, I think it's line 151 causing the
problem:

try:
_default_version = link = os.readlink('/usr/bin/python')   
# line 151
except OSError:
_default_version = None
try:
cmd = ['/usr/bin/python', '-c', 'import sys; print 
sys.version[:3]']
import subprocess
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, bufsize=1,
 shell=False, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
fd = p.stdout
except ImportError:
fd = os.popen(/usr/bin/python -c 'import sys; print 
sys.version[:3]')
line = fd.readline().strip()
fd.close()
if re.match(r'\d\.\d$', line):
_default_version = 'python' + line

Since the link exists, line 151 returns '/etc/alternatives/python',
which fails the consistency check. A quick fix is to remove line 150 to
153, as '/usr/bin/python', '-c', 'import sys; print sys.version[:3]'
returned the correct 2.7.
