[Bug 1248211] Re: After upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10 no auto mount, unable to shutdown/reboot from menu, empty network list, etc ...

2014-01-05 Thread Jeff Balderson
This affects me too in exactly the same way.

Based on my digging, there are more than a few people experiencing this
particular combination of issues after the 13.10 upgrade (NM issues,
User Account management unlock is greyed out, drive
mounting/unmounting issues, shutdown/reboot issues).

I've seen it suggested this may actually be a policykit issue, since
these are all things that require elevated permissions and only occurs
in the GUI.  This particular system I'm on may have been upgraded more
than once, but I'm not sure since I don't recall whether I did a clean
install of 13.04 or upgraded from 12.10 (and more).  So, it may be
something that doesn't present unless you've gone through multiple
chained upgrades.

[Bug 994926] Re: empathy accounts not stored

2012-06-29 Thread Jeff Balderson
I believe this is a problem with AppArmor in 12.04.  I've been using
this same setup for a while now, so I don't think it affects previous
versions.

In /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home, HOME is rigidly defined as /home/.
I put home in /u01/home, it meant that the apparmor profile for
Telepathy was broken.

It looks like the original reporter has a home directory of
/home/JOHNNYPARK/mhouse, which is similar to my case.

This means that the apparmor profile in /etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.telepathy:
/usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5 {
...
owner @{HOME}/.mission-control/  rw,
owner @{HOME}/.mission-control/**rw,
...
}

Won't cover home directories that don't fit the pattern of
/home/username

As a workaround for my case, I changed the HOMEDIRS definition to
@{HOMEDIRS}=/home/ /u01/home/ in  /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.

[Bug 994926] Re: empathy accounts not stored

2012-06-29 Thread Jeff Balderson
Unfortunately, being able to relocate home directories is very typical
on *nix systems from my experience.  The best possible case would be to
somehow search /etc/passwd for home directories and only allow it to run
out of those on a per-user basis.  This isn't necessarily relevant to
Empathy or Telepathy, rather a Ubuntu/apparmor design issue.

After even further digging, it appears that instead of editing
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home as I did, the correct way of handling this
is to run sudo dpkg-reconfigure apparmor which will prompt you for
additional home directory locations.  Those get added to
/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d/ubuntu (which says it's automatically
generated and therefore shouldn't be edited directly).

[Bug 325346] Re: dump cannot dump ext4 partitions

2009-06-09 Thread Jeff Balderson
Dump *will* now make dumps of an ext4 without complaining using dump
v0.4b41-6 (Jaunty)

Unfortunately, restoring the data shows that it's been corrupted
somewhere in the process (either dump or restore).   The data doesn't
even remotely resemble the original.

100% reproducibility. Steps to reproduce:

1) Create an ext4 filesystem and mount on /mnt/test
2) Create a simple text file on the filesystem: /mnt/test/testfile.txt
3) dump -0f /mnt/backup/testbackup.dmp /mnt/test
4) mkdir /mnt/backup/test; cd /mnt/backup/test
5) restore -rf /mnt/backup/testbackup.dmp
6) inspect /mnt/backup/test/testfile.txt to see corrupted data.

Dump should either correctly dump an ext4 or refuse to do so entirely.
In the current state, it could be lulling admins into a false sense of
security that their data is backed up.

[Bug 333821] Re: synergy client fails to move mouse in 9.04

2009-03-11 Thread Jeff Balderson
I had the same problem with:

Server: 1.3.1-4ubuntu2 (intrepid) (i386)
Client:  1.3.1-5ubuntu1 (jaunty) (x86_64)

I also tried it with 1.3.1-5ubuntu1 on both systems and 1.3.1-4ubuntu2
on both systems, with no change.

I upgraded the server to Jaunty, which means I'm currently running:

Server: 1.3.1-5ubuntu1 (jaunty) (i386)
Client:  1.3.1-5ubuntu1 (jaunty) (x86_64)

And the mouse operates as expected.  This when combined with the
comments above seems to suggest that something has changed in the mouse
handling in Jaunty that breaks Synergy for any non-Jaunty/Jaunty
combination, particularly where Jaunty is the client and possibly where
Jaunty is the server.

My earlier statement that Jaunty/Jaunty works correctly is incorrect.
On my laptop (HP Elitebook 8530w), I have a Synaptics touchpad as well
as a joystick.

If I touch the joystick *at all* Synergy will start working as expected.
I must have bumped the joystick during my last test.

This appears that it is likely a duplicate of 321444.

This also affects me.

I have an HP Elitebook 8530w with both a touchpad and a joystick
(pointstick).  I found that if I move the joystick Synergy will start
working as expected. If I use the touchpad, Synergy stops working and
reverts to being stuck in the upper left corner.  If I kill/restart
synergyc, it goes back to whatever state it was in before being killed.
If I kill synergyc, touch the touchpad and restart synergyc, it will be
stuck.  If I kill synergyc, move the joystick and restart synergyc, it
works normally.

[Bug 206337] Re: [fglrx] Using fglrx causes excessive hardware interrupts and an extremely slow system

2008-10-14 Thread Jeff Balderson
Bryce,

Interestingly, I just upgraded to intrepid last night to get around the
annoying intrepid-nx-hardy keyboard mapping bug (reported by someone
else already), so I was in a good place to test this tonight.

The updates installed fine, the fglrx-installer (via
System-Administration-Hardware Drivers) worked correctly and my
original problem (150k interrupts per sec) appears to be resolved with
these latest updates.  Interrupts are now down in a range I consider to
be quite sane when using the FGLRX driver.

X.org.log confirms that its using the 8.54.3 driver, and glxgears went
from 190fps to 1200fps (even though glxgears is not to be used as a
benchmark ;-).

Thanks for working on/fixing this!

[Bug 206337] Re: [fglrx] Using fglrx causes excessive hardware interrupts and an extremely slow system

2008-08-05 Thread Jeff Balderson
Alberto,

In this case EnvyNG yields a broken installation because when Compiz
loads (i.e., it uses 3D effects), you get a white screen instead of the
expected 3D effects.

After some digging, I found this to be because the fglrx kernel module
isn't loading.  The reason the kernel module isn't loading is because
there's no device stanza in xorg.conf which contains fglrx.  If I
manually insmod
/lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/IForgetTheExactPpathToTheEnvyNGVersionOf/fglrx.ko,
I get 3D effects as expected.  Note that I was careful to make sure that
I wasn't loading a remnant of the older Hardware Drivers installed
which is normally included in volatile/fglrx.ko.

I don't have this same problem with the Hardware Drivers method of
getting 3D effects.

Unfortunately, my original problem is experienced with either the EnvyNG
installed driver (I forget the exact version that ultimately got
installed) or the Hardware Drivers installed driver.  If I can find
some time soon, I'll report it on the ATI bugtracker.

[Bug 206337] Re: [fglrx] Using fglrx causes excessive hardware interrupts and an extremely slow system

2008-07-31 Thread Jeff Balderson
I tried this back around 7/15.

Unfortunately, the EnvyNG installer results in a broken installation.
Based on my limited diagnosis, the kernel module won't load because
there's no  device stanza in xorg.conf which contains fglrx.  Because
the kernel module isn't loaded, I wind up with a white screen when
Compiz loads.

Once I rectified that situation (manually installing the module using
insmod instead of modprobe), the original problem seems to still be
unchanged.   Since you have to specify the full path of the module when
you use insmod, I'm fairly certain that I was using the correct envy-
installed kernel module and not the normal restricted module.

Thanks for trying though.

[Bug 206337] Re: [fglrx] Using fglrx causes excessive hardware interrupts and an extremely slow system

2008-05-11 Thread Jeff Balderson
My original system was a 32-bit Hardy running on 64-bit capable
hardware, upgraded from Gutsy.

I did a fresh 32-bit install of Hardy, fully updated -- no change.
I did a fresh 64-bit install of Hardy, fully updated -- no change.

I read something somewhere recently about people running 32 bit OS on
64-bit hardware and running into some issues which is why I decided to
do the fresh install.

The problem still remains without any notable change -- something is
still generating about 150K interrupts per sec (based on output from
'vmstat 1'), normal system performance, 2D performance is excruciatingly
slow,  and 3D performance is fair but slower than expected.  If I
disable the FGLRX driver, interrupts,  2D performance and system
performance go back to their expected levels, but obviously I lose any
benefits of the direct rendering.

All this confirms is that I can replicate the results with both 32-bit
and 64-bit Hardy and that there's no legacy issues from my Gutsy-Hardy
upgrade that are triggering it.

It looks like that might not be a good comparison:

[Bug 198138] Re: Installer/wget is unable to retrieve files via a proxy

2008-04-18 Thread Jeff Balderson
This test is with the apt-cacher server still running on port 

~ # wget  http://apt-proxy.company.com:/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O -
wget: no response from server
~ # wget  http://apt-proxy.company.com:8738/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O -
wget: Unable to connect to remote host (192.168.1.20): Connection refused

This is with the apt-cacher server running on 8738

~ # wget  http://apt-proxy.company.com:8738/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O -
wget: no response from server

This is via Apache (apt-cacher install sets up Alias /apt-cacher 
/usr/share/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.pl)

~ # wget  
http://apt-proxy.company.com:80/apt-cacher/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O - | 
grep ^Suite: | cut -d' ' -f 2
hardy

It appears to me that the problem isn't an endianness problem, but
rather that the busybox implementation of wget had a regression between
Gutsy and Hardy such that it no longer works with apt-cacher or apt-
proxy since it doesn't believe it's getting a response from the server.

I ran tcpdump on the server.  I ran wget  
http://apt-proxy.company.com:8738/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O - from the 
installer's busybox.  The request from the client:
GET /ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release HTTP/1.1

Host: apt-proxy.company.com

User-Agent: Wget

Connection: close

Then there's an ack back to the client, and then a FIN/ACK back to the
client.

From an installed client, the request looks like this:
GET /ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release HTTP/1.0

User-Agent: Wget/1.10.2

I should add that it appears that the system referenced above is
otherwise functional.  Top reports the system is constantly 60% busy in
%hi when X is on the active console.  The remainder of the system
feels like it's 60% or busier, like it's running a 500mhz Celeron
instead of the actual 2.8ghz Celeron D.  Compiz works and 3D performance
is fair, but not as fast as I'd expect, and definitely slower than the
Nvidia TI4400 I have in a similarly equipped machine.

2008-03-24 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

On an up-to-date Hardy install, when I enable the FGLRX driver using the
restricted drivers manager and reboot, either X or FGLRX cause an
excessive number of hardware interrupts on my system whenever it's the
active console:

Around second 6, I switched from tty1 to tty7 (X server), and back to
tty1 around second 13.

You can see the number of hardware interrupts jump from around 100/s to
15/s whenever X is on the active console.  Performance is also  very
noticeably degraded.  I've compared this against another system with a
slightly older, but still respectable 3D card and the in field never
exceeds 1000.  This system.

The VESA driver doesn't experience this problem, but has other
significant issues (like the color map gets all messed up when you
switch to a text console and back).

I've tried various options (noapic, pci=routeirq, irqpoll and others)
without any improvement to the situation and with some the system locks
up hard and needs to be hard-reset.

I've also seen the same problem with this exact same system using Gutsy
and Envy-installed FGLRX drivers.

[Bug 203947] [NEW] Installer hangs trying to install SILO boot loader

2008-03-19 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: debian-installer

Steps to reproduce:

1) Do a network install using 
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/installer-sparc/20070308ubuntu33/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/boot.img
2) Go Back at an appropriate point and Switch to low priority
3) Partition drives normally (my normal config includes RAID drives, but I 
tested this with non-raided and met the same hang).
4) When the installer gets to the Install SILO Boot Loader step of the 
install, it hangs (possibly indefinitely).
5) From another console, I killed '/usr/bin/perl /usr/sbin/siloconfig', and the 
installer complained of the failure.
6) I then proceeded with finish installation without boot loader, at which 
point it hung again, 
7) I listed the processes again and noticed that something launched the SILO 
installer again.  I killed it again and it completed the install
8) Upon reboot, it doesn't look like SILO got installed correctly.

This system doesn't have a CD-ROM, so I can't test the CD-ROM based
installer to see if I have similar issues.

Syslog is attached. 
Note in the attached syslog that I've killed the PID for '/usr/bin/perl 
/usr/sbin/siloconfig' after letting it sit for 5 minutes or so with no 
activity.  You'll see several attempts along these lines.

[Bug 194032] Re: Install hangs on SILO using a LDom on a T5220

2008-03-19 Thread Jeff Balderson
Since my report (bug 203947) has been marked a duplicate of this one, I
thought I'd chime in:

I netbooted, chrooted into my mostly installed system and performed the
following:

apt-get --purge remove silo
then:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# apt-get install silo

image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only

image=/vmlinuz.old
label=LinuxOLD
read-only

Note that SILO counts the lines in the config file starting at 0, so it
looks like the problems with the auto-generated file are:

1) the root= line uses a UUID, and SILO doesn't understand UUIDs
2) vmlinuz lives in /boot/ if you don't have a separate /boot partition.  So 
the correct path in this case would be /boot/vmlinuz

If I again netboot/chroot, edit /etc/silo.conf, and change it to :
partition=1
root=/dev/md0
timeout=20

image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only

image=/boot/vmlinuz.old
label=LinuxOLD
read-only

My system will then boot.

2008-03-04 Thread Jeff Balderson
Unfortunately, no improvement.

The only difference I can identify is that I can no longer mark
partition 1 as Do Not Use.  I'm using this partition layout, which is
similar to one I've tried above.

IDE1 master (hda) - 20.0 GB ST320413A
  #1   8.2 MB   F ext3
  #2 641.6 MB   K raid
  #4   4.1 GB   K raid
  #5 510.0 MB   K raid
  #6   3.1 GB   K raid
  #7   5.1 GB   K raid
  #8   6.6 GB   K raid
IDE2 master (hdc) - 20.0 GB ST320413A
  #1   8.2 MB   F ext3
  #2 641.6 MB   K raid
  #4   4.1 GB   K raid
  #5 510.0 MB   K raid
  #6   3.1 GB   K raid
  #7   5.1 GB   K raid
  #8   6.6 GB   K raid

Note that since I can't mark partition 1 as Do Not Use, it's now an
EXT3 and marked as Do Not Mount.  When I select Configure software
RAID, it gives me the usual Are you sure you want to do this? page,
two progress bars quickly scroll across the page, and I receive the
original The installer needs to remove ... message.

Syslog is attached, but I can't identify anything seemingly related.
None of the other debug files seem to contain anything different from
before and/or pertaining to this.

Performing:

gets rid of the Permission denied problem, but doesn't seem to fix the
original problem.  I've poked around a bit but am still unclear as to
why it's even attempting to mount the unconfigured RAID components.

By default, apt-cacher can also be accessed via Apache2 (if you have it
installed).

As a workaround, you can set the mirror to:

apt-cacher.company.com  and /apt-cacher/ubuntu

Although I didn't used to have to do this with Gutsy and prior.

but was unable to do so.  The install cannot continue.

6) Click continue, and I receive:

An error occurred while writing the changes to the storage devices
RAID configuration has been aborted.

7) Click continue and it sends me back to the partitioner.

I know for a fact that I've used this exact same configuration with
Gutsy, and possibly as far back as Dapper.

This is on a headless system, so I have to install via text mode and
can't switch between consoles.

2008-03-03 Thread Jeff Balderson
And in case you're wondering, the reason I leave /dev/hda1 and /dev/hdc1
unconfigured is due to the fact that RAID volumes will overwrite the Sun
disklabel.

This configuration appears to work:
IDE1 master (hda) - 20.0 GB ST320413A
  #1 131.6 MB   f ext3   /boot
  #2 510.0 MB   f ext3   /

  #6   3.1 GB   f swap   swap

  #8   6.6 GB   f ext3   /export
IDE2 master (hdc) - 20.0 GB ST320413A
  20.0 GB FREE SPACE

Unfortunately, the install bombs out with an invalid release signature.
With as unstable as the repositories have been lately in that regard,
I'm not sure whether this is a d-i issue or just the flakiness of the
repositories.  Either way, that's a separate issue from what I reported
above.

[Bug 198138] [NEW] Installer/wget is unable to retrieve files via a proxy

2008-03-03 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: debian-installer

Installer is unable to retrieve files from apt-proxy/apt-cacher style
proxies using hostname:port, despite the fact that the dialogs say
that it's valid.

1) Netbooted from 
/ubuntu/hardy/main/installer-sparc/20070308ubuntu31/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/boot.img
2) manually set apt-proxy.company.com: and /ubuntu/ at the prompt for 
which repository to use

The problem seems to stem from the fact that the installer's version of
wget appears to be hobbled in some fashion:

This is from a running i386 Hardy system on the same network:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ wget -q 
http://apt-proxy.company.com:/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O - | grep 
^Suite: | cut -d' ' -f 2
hardy

So, the proxy is definitely working, and none of my other machines have
problems accessing it.

This is from the shell on the netbooted system:
~ # wget -q http://apt-proxy.company.com:/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O - 
| grep ^Suite: | cut -d' ' -f 2
wget: no response from server
~ # wget -q http://192.168.1.20:/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O -
wget: no response from server

It can get to the server from the netbooted system if I drop the port:
~ # wget -q http://192.168.1.20/ubuntu//dists/hardy/Release -O -
wget: server returned error 404: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
(note that port 80 is just a plain web sever, no Ubuntu packages, so the 404 is 
normal)

2007-11-30 Thread Jeff Balderson
I was experiencing the same problem, so I installed Daniel Haler's PPA
version and about two weeks ago.  It cured my immediate ills and had
been running ever since without problems.

Last night, I installed the version released into gutsy-proposed.  My
initial impression is that it also seems to fix the problem and not
cause any problems with any other packages I use, although my testing is
minimal at this point.  I'll report again if I find the postgrey problem
return or other issues.

[Bug 141526] Sparc hangs on Booting Linux on Gutsy

2007-09-21 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22

I have a Sun Netra X1 that I wanted to test Gutsy on.  When booting, it
gets as far as Booting Linux and fails to continue to boot regardless
of how long I wait -- I left it sitting like this overnight last night.
Since this seems to affect both the netboot image as well as the regular
kernel, It appears that this might be a kernel or kernel build issue,
which is why I attached it to the 2.6.22 kernel.  Please adjust if you
believe otherwise.

I notice this problem under two circumstances:

1) When I attempt to netboot from:
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-sparc/20070308ubuntu12/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/boot.img

I receive:

ok boot net
Boot device: /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]  File and args: 
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet

94b800 
Remapping the kernel... done.
OF stdout device is: /[EMAIL PROTECTED],0/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED],3f8
Booting Linux...

And it hangs indefinitely.

2) Since I couldn't get the Gutsy netboot image to work, I installed from the 
Feisty netboot image from:
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-sparc/20061102ubuntu26/images/sparc64/netboot/2.6/
Feisty installed and runs fine.  Then I upgraded to Gutsy

After the upgrade, upon booting into the 2.6.22 (linux-
image-2.6.22-11-sparc64 package, version: 2.6.22-11.33) kernel, I
receive:

ok boot
Boot device: disk0:3  File and args: 
SILO Version 1.4.13

And it hangs indefinitely.  Selecting Linux-rescue from the Silo
prompt gives identical output.

If I manually select LinuxOLD (the 2.6.20 Feisty kernel from prior to
the upgrade) at the Silo prompt, and it boots fine:

ok boot 
Boot device: disk0:3  File and args:

[Bug 120426] Re: EATA driver/module does not load

2007-07-29 Thread Jeff Balderson
I had the exact same problem yesterday.  Ultimately, I found that the
following workaround got my system to reboot correctly:

1) load the eata module from the busybox shell and wait 10s
2) exit from the shell and log in once the system has loaded
3) echo eata  /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
4) echo eata  /etc/modules
5) update-initramfs -k all -u

[Bug 49914] Re: initramfs/mdrun doesn't honor preferred minor when starting RAID volumes

2007-05-07 Thread Jeff Balderson
Yes.  The bug is present in Edgy..  I haven't tried upgrading to Feisty
yet.

I created a raid array:

mdadm --create -l5 -n 14 /dev/md10 /dev/sd[bcdfghijklqrst]1

Added it to /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# cat /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf

ARRAY /dev/md10 level=raid5 num-devices=14 
UUID=b68f200f:c99aa697:ec26162e:580f6e07

Rebuilt my initramfs (not sure if this is actually necessary or not):
update-initramfs -k all -u

Added it to /etc/fstab:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# fgrep export /etc/fstab
UUID=378b2a0d-66f6-4228-9772-6edc387b2dad /export   ext3defaults
0   2

But it still gets started as /dev/md6:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [raid1] [raid5] [raid4] 
md6 : active raid5 sdb1[0] sdt1[13] sds1[12] sdr1[11] sdq1[10] sdl1[9] sdk1[8]

  462172672 blocks level 5, 64k chunk, algorithm 2 [14/14] [UU]
... (md0-md5 pruned for brevity)

While everything DOES gets started and mounted correctly using the
UUIDs, if I set a RAID volume to start up as /dev/md10, it's my belief
that it should remain there after rebooting even if it uses the UUIDs to
start them.

[Bug 103177] Re: boot-time race condition initializing md

2007-04-12 Thread Jeff Balderson
My experience mirrors (pun intended) Jeff250's.

If I boot with break=mount, and remove quiet splash, it drops to the
shell, and about a second later, it discovers everything properly.  At
that point, I can exit the shell and the boot process will continue
normally.

If I don't boot with break=mount and I let it fail and drop me to the
shell, nothing is ever discovered.  This might be expected behavior in
this circumstance.

One of the odd things in the first case is that my ATA (not SATA) drives
are discovered as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb according to /proc/mdstat, which
reports that /dev/md1 is comprised of /dev/sda5 and /dev/sdb5.  In the
let it fail scenario, if I perform a udevd ; udevtrigger; [wait a
few seconds] ; pkill udev it properly discovers them as /dev/hda and
/dev/hdc and starts /dev/md1 with /dev/hda5 /dev/hdc5.  Either way, once
it's finished booting, /proc/mdstat reports the correct device names
(/dev/hda* and /dev/hdc*).

[Bug 103177] Re: boot-time race condition initializing md

2007-04-12 Thread Jeff Balderson
Correction -- after booting in the break=mount scenario my ATA (not
SATA) drives are still identified as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb according to
/proc/mdstat:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [raid1] 
...
md1 : active raid1 sda5[0] sdb5[1]
  497856 blocks [2/2] [UU]

The same holds true for the let it fail and sleep 10 boot scenarios.
I guess this is a new feature.

I hadn't noticed this previously, since the Feisty system I've been
working with most uses SATA, and SATA has always shown up as SCSI.

All,

Please read this comment in another bug by Scott James Remnant.

This policy isn't clearly displayed anywhere obvious, they apparently
want us all to open separate bugs for them to investigate, and they will
determine if it's an actual duplicate or not.

[Bug 103177] boot-time race condition initializing md

2007-04-04 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mdadm

I originally contributed some feedback to Bug #75681.  It is currently
reported as being fixed, but my problem still persists.  The person that
closed it recommended that we open new bugs if we're still having
problems.  I've reproduced my feedback here to save looking it up:

==
FWIW, I have the problem, exactly as described, with a IDE-only system.

I attempted this with both an Edgy-Feisty upgrade (mid Februrary), and
a fresh install of Herd5.

I'm running straight RAID1 for all my volumes:

md0 - hda1/hdc1 - /boot
md1 - hda5/hdc5 - /
md2 - hda6/hdc6 - /usr
md3 - hda7/hdc7 - /tmp
md4 - hda8/hdc8 - swap
md5 - hda9/hdc9 - /var
md6 - hda10/hdc10 - /export

EVERY time I boot, mdadm complains that it can't build my arrays. It
dumps me in the busybox shell where I discover that all /dev/hda* and
/dev/hdc* devices are missing. I ran across a suggestion here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2236181postcount=5. I followed
the instructions and so far, it's worked perfectly at every boot (about
5 times now).

Other than just to post a me too, I thought my comments might help give a 
possible temporary workaround, as well as document the fact this isn't just a 
SATA problem.


I just updated to the latest packages as of approximately 4/5/07 00:50
EDT, and nothing has changed.

To fix it, I can follow the workaround here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/75681/comments/60
(Boot with break=premount
At the initramfs prompt:
  udevd --verbose --suppress-syslog /tmp/udev-output 21 
  udevtrigger
)

or here:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2236181postcount=5
(add 'sleep 10' after 'log_begin_msg Mounting root file system...' in 
usr/share/initramfs-tools/init)

Either will allow me to boot (the latter without manual intervention).

[Bug 96816] Update breaks working xorg/compiz configuration on GeForce4 4400TI

2007-03-26 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I had a working xorg/compiz/nvidia-glx configuration working properly
prior to updates this evening. Among other things, I updated the
following (and their related packages):

compiz 1:0.3.6-1ubuntu8(old) 1:0.3.6-1ubuntu10(new)
xserver-xorg 1:7.2-0ubuntu8(old) 1:7.2-0ubuntu9(new)
nvidia-glx 1.0.9631+2.6.20.3-12.11(old) 1.0.9755+2.6.20.4-13.12(new)

X now breaks saying that my card isn't supported in nvidia-glx, but
rather I should be using nvidia-glx-legacy.

The description for nvidia-glx-legacy (in deselect) says that it's for
older Nvidia cards, like TNT, GeForce, and GeForce2, all of which are
considerably older than my card.   Regardless, I installed nvidia-glx-
legacy to see if it would fix the problem.

X now starts correctly, but when I log in, I don't have a window manager
running.  When manually started, Compiz craps out with an error:

Xlib:  extension GLX missing on display :0.0.
/usr/bin/compiz.real: Root visual is not a GL visual
/usr/bin/compiz.real: Failed to manage screen: 0
/usr/bin/compiz.real: No manageable screens found on display :0.0

Metacity will start correctly, but not automatically.

lspci -v reports the following regarding my GeForce4 card:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV25 [GeForce4 Ti 4400] 
(rev a3) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. Unknown device 8711
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 248, IRQ 16
Memory at f800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Memory at e800 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=128M]
Memory at f000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=512K]
[virtual] Expansion ROM at f008 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [44] AGP version 2.0


So, I have a number of problems here (some xorg, some not):

1) My completely working and surprisingly stable (for a beta) setup was
broken with this update

2) X was left in an invalid state due to the update.

3) Compiz dies with no warning, leaving no window manager running.

4) X is incorrectly reporting that my card is supported by nvidia-glx-
legacy, when it was previously working just fine with nvidia-glx and
other documentation suggests that nvidia-glx should be used with my
card.  In fact, the 4200 and 4600 (little and big brothers to my card)
supposedly work just fine with nvidia-glx.

5) When I try to turn off desktop effects via the preferences control
panel, I'm only given cancel and enable at the dialog.  Cancel just
seems to cancel the dialog.  Enable installs nvidia-glx, which we've
already determined that X seems to believe doesn't work with my card.

[Bug 96816] Re: Update breaks working xorg/compiz configuration on GeForce4 4400TI

2007-03-26 Thread Jeff Balderson
I did a little research here:

http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html

And it turns out that the 1.0-9755 binary driver no longer supports the
ti 4400, whereas the 1.0-9633 binary driver does.

So, it looks like X has a legitimate complaint there.  However, that
still leaves all of my other points, especially #5.

[Bug 49265] Re: Intel 440BX: 'hda: I/O error'

2007-03-23 Thread Jeff Balderson
Rouben:

I can't confirm whether this is actually a duplicate of 26119, but it
sounds virtually identical.  The problem is only with particular drives.
The Seagate ST320413A referenced below causes it, but neither a Seagate
ST320420A nor a Western Digital WDC WD400EB-00CPF0 do.

Paolo:

Assuming it's the same bug, yes, it still persists.  This is on a Sun
Ultra 5 that's had the problem since it was first reported --  I can't
remember whether it started in Breezy or Dapper.

[Bug 75555] Re: Software Raid Setup with feisty herd1 alternate on amd64

2007-02-16 Thread Jeff Balderson
I can confirm the same with Herd3.

From my diagnosis, it appears that /dev/md? are missing or not generated
properly in the initramfs.

In the busybox shell, I proceeded to do:

mknod /dev/md0 b 9 0
mknod /dev/md1 b 9 1
etc..
mdadm --run /dev/md0 /dev/hda1 /dev/hdc1
mdadm --run /dev/md1 /dev/hda5 /dev/hdc5
etc..
exit

And then it proceeded to boot properly.

I did all of that from memory, so I may not have all the commands exact.

[Bug 41787] Re: nppdf.so: undefined symbol: XtCalloc

2006-07-10 Thread Jeff Balderson
Try this.  Start Firefox from a command prompt:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libXt.so.6 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox

That should temporarily fix the problem until you exit firefox.  The
problem appears to be that nppdf.so expects that libXt.so to already be
loaded, which is bad practice.

A hack that will work around the problem (but load more, possibly
unnecessary libraries, depending on what you're doing), again at a
command prompt:

1) sudo cp -a /usr/lib/firefox/firefox /usr/lib/firefox/firefox.old
2) sudo vi /usr/lib/firefox/firefox
3) search for:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
4) change it to:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libXt.so.6
export LD_PRELOAD

Save the file and make sure firefox is completely closed.  When you
start up Firefox the next time, you should find that Acrobat reader
works, at least until an update comes out that overwrites the firefox
script.

[Bug 49509] Re: init script does not create requirred /var/run/mailscanner directory

2006-07-04 Thread Jeff Balderson
To work around this bug, I put the following in
/etc/default/mailscanner:

[ ! -d /var/run/MailScanner ]  mkdir /var/run/MailScanner  chown 
postfix:postfix /var/run/MailScanner
[ ! -d /var/lock/subsys/MailScanner ]  mkdir -p /var/lock/subsys/MailScanner 
 chown postfix:postfix /var/lock/subsys/MailScanner

Obviously, you'll need to change the ownership appropriately if you're
running something other than Postfix.

This seemed like the lowest impact way to get my system to work
correctly across reboots and MailScanner updates.  It should also be
transparent once this bug gets fixed.

[Bug 49914] initramfs/mdrun doesn't honor preferred minor when starting RAID volumes

2006-06-15 Thread Jeff Balderson
Public bug reported:

On a Sun e420 during the install, I created my volumes as follows:

/dev/sda1 /boot
/dev/md0 /home  (/dev/sd[ab]8)
/dev/md1 / (/dev/sd[ab]2)
/dev/md2 /usr (/dev/sd[ab]4)
/dev/md3 swap (/dev/sd[ab]5)
/dev/md4 /tmp (/dev/sd[ab]6)
/dev/md5 /var (/dev/sd[ab]7)

and completed the install.  Upon reboot, my RAID volumes were started
as:

/dev/sda1 /boot
/dev/md0 /
/dev/md1 /usr
/dev/md2 swap
/dev/md3 /tmp
/dev/md4 /var
/dev/md5 /home

apparently started in order of discovery (/dev/sda1 through /dev/sda8),
not honoring the preferred minor or /etc/mdadm.conf, and rendering my
system unbootable until I did some surgery.

After the surgery, I patched to date (incl kernel 2.6.15-25) and did an
event-free reboot.

At this point, the raid volumes are:

/dev/md0 /boot (/dev/sd[ab]1)
/dev/md1 / (/dev/sd[ab]2)
/dev/md2 /usr (/dev/sd[ab]4)
/dev/md3 swap (/dev/sd[ab]5)
/dev/md4 /tmp (/dev/sd[ab]6)
/dev/md5 /var (/dev/sd[ab]7)
/dev/md6 /home  (/dev/sd[ab]8)

I created two raid volumes

mdadm -C -l5 -c64 -n6 -x0 /dev/md11 /dev/sd[cdefgh]
mdadm -C -l5 -c64 -n6 -x0 /dev/md12 /dev/sd[ijklmn]

As you can see, my RAID volume components do have the preferred minor
listed correctly prior to rebooting (the array is still building here):

And yet when I reboot /dev/md11 is started as /dev/md7 and /dev/md12 is
started as /dev/md8.

[Bug 49914] Re: initramfs/mdrun doesn't honor preferred minor when starting RAID volumes

2006-06-15 Thread Jeff Balderson
This may possibly be an madm/mdrun problem, but I haven't had a chance
to investigate whether it's the local-top/md script that's causing it,
or if it's mdrun.
