[Bug 1291459] Re: ioctl FE_GET_INFO hangs with DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Digital 4 card

2014-03-26 Thread Vince McIntyre
I see the same firmware loading issue. I assumed the problem was in
tuner_xc2028, as I don't see any related messages in dmesg after the
firmware blob fails to load:

[Bug 665168] Re: Rhythmbox fails to connect to DAAP share

2011-08-22 Thread Vince McIntyre
I see this in 0.12.8-0ubuntu7 (lucid version, i386).

The server is mt-daap (0.9~r1696.dfsg-15build1) running on lucid i386  also.
iTunes on a mac sees it just fine and plays songs fine.

I am able to play files from the server with VLC and the http: access
method.

I don't see the DAAP server automatically. As it happens there are two on my 
network but
one has no content.  As above, I start rhythmbox, go to Music->Connect to DAAP 
Share... in the menu. Enter a hostname and port number in the syntax specified 
in the dialog. Nothing further happens.

With tcpdump I can see the MDNS requests going out and responses coming back.
But there are no further queries, for eg /server-info.

Stracing shows the queries appear to be getting received but I can't see
any further attempts to connect to the server.

[Bug 824245] [NEW] tcsh: missing /etc/csh files

2011-08-10 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

The immediate issue I have is:
I have my login shell set to tcsh. However .cshrc is not getting executed on 
login via gdm.

However on investigating I could not find the expected system-wide cshrc and 
login files.
dpkg claims they are there but I can't see them (I did a remove (no --purge) & 
install cycle).
I can't see anything in the package pre/post scripts that would remove these 
files.

[Bug 690798] Re: arduino USB serial device breaks on lucid kernel upgrade

2011-02-02 Thread Vince McIntyre
After watching & waiting a bit, I've seen no more errors of the type I
described in #16. I've rebooted and done a replugging test or two and
it's all been solid.

Coincidentally one of my 1-wire sensors died but I got quite different
error messages from that and it seems clear that the ftdi_sio module was
not at fault.

I'll give it a few more days and let you know if I see a recurrence.

Unfortunately the fix seems to be incomplete for me.

$ cat /proc/version_signature

$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-28-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 10 21:21:01 UTC 2011 i686

Reverting the commit 55b5b5448771f964776a716227afd3ddef2c860e does help, but it 
appears that another regression has appeared in the meantime. After about 18h I 
start getting this error from digitemp (I am calling it from cron once every 
15min)

Once the system gets into this state, it persists until reboot.


I do not see this problem with 2.6.32-26-generic, patched so that 
55b5b5448771f964776a716227afd3ddef2c860e is reverted.

The signal strength was pretty good, -38db, link quality 70/70.

With the test kernel, the device has been solidly up for nearly 24h.

Looks like this fixes it for me.

2010-11-05 Thread Vince McIntyre

The change I bisected to (55b5b5448771f964776a716227afd3ddef2c860e)
is 6a1a82df91fa0eb1cc76069a9efe5714d087eccd from upstream.

That commit was reverted recently:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=677aeafe19e88c282af74564048243ccabb1c590;hp=1f8dd0154e09220be346819b85d195c791bb0f0b

Please could you also revert it in the next release of 2.6.32.

I've added patch-accepted-upstream because of this, is that the correct
thing to do?

[Bug 650731] Re: Auto Update to Linux 2.6.32.25.27 broke Digitemp

2010-11-04 Thread Vince McIntyre

I am seeing exactly the same issue, on i386. I have the same version of 
digitemp, 3.5.0ds1-1.

I found a kernel commit which I think causes this,  see LP#655868.

It's unclear if the kernel was wrong before and got fixed (so digitemp needs to 
be changed too)
or if the kernel change was wrong somehow.

These two bugs may be the same issue.

[Bug 669886] [NEW] KernelCompile - incorrect instructions for usage of AUTOBUILD

2010-11-02 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

This is a report about  help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile.
I didn't just dive in and change it because I wanted to check I wasn't making 
things worse.
If you think I'm right let me know & I'll go fix the page.

I think the information on this page regarding building ubuntu kernels from the 
ubuntu git repository has some errors.
I may be doing some thing wrong but here is what I observe.

I want to build a checkout somewhere between two tags, eg revision 
47309c6a6af8cce3586c735788fc978bbcd7249f.
Setting the AUTOBUILD variable is supposed to make the build process append a 
string to the ABI number, instead of
packages named like linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic I should get  
linux-image-2.6.32-25-47349f-generic.

To make this happen I have to run the build like this:
  fakeroot debian/rules clean AUTOBUILD=1
  fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic AUTOBUILD=1

Doing it as described in the page
  fakeroot debian/rules clean
  AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic

does not work, for two reasons.
1. if AUTOBUILD is not set when you run debian/rules clean, the ABI number is 
not given the extra suffix
when debian/control is created. So the kernel build goes ahead but the 
packaging step fails with an error
like this:
dpkg-gencontrol: error: package linux-image-2.6.32-24-47349f-generic 
not in control info

2. I find that placing the AUTOBUILD=1 before the 'fakeroot' does not work, 
neither this way:
 AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules ...
nor this way
  export AUTOBUILD=1 ; fakeroot debian/rules ...
Doing it with AUTOBUILD=1 given after the makefile name (debian/rules) does 
work.

To reproduce:
 * check out the kernel git as per 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelGitGuide
 * run the 'printenv' target of debian/rules with AUTOBUILD set or not set.

Here are my results:
  $ git remote -v
  origin  git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-lucid.git (fetch)
  origin  git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-lucid.git (push)

  $ git show
  commit 47309c6a6af8cce3586c735788fc978bbcd7249f
  ...
  $ echo $SHELL
  /bin/bash
  $ fakeroot debian/rules printenv|grep abinum
  abinum= 25
  $ AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules printenv|grep abinum
  abinum= 25
  $ fakeroot debian/rules printenv AUTOBUILD=1 |grep abinum
  abinum= 25-47349f

A bit of eyeball comparison of the repository for the two kernels
suggests two commits that might be at fault - just because the changes
occur in the right time frame, it's hard to see why they could cause the
problem.

I'm still seeing occasional "unsupported jumbo" messages, but the card does 
appear to work fairly reliably,
I have not seen it fall over in days. Thanks Maxim. I haven't made speed tests 
but it's not irritatingly slow.
Not seeing any "noise floor" messages.

I do have a problem with the device, however. It is not responding
properly when queried by /usr/bin/digitemp_DS9097U. Let me know if you
want me to file a separate bug, but for now here's the problem:

What I used to get was
$  digitemp_DS9097U -s /dev/ttyUSB0 -a -q
Sep 28 20:01:25 Sensor 0 C: 21.56 F: 70.81
Sep 28 20:01:26 Sensor 1 C: 23.06 F: 73.51
ie there are two one-wire temperature sensors plugged into the usb serial 
device.

Now what I get is:
$ digitemp_DS9097U -s /dev/ttyUSB0 -a -q 
Error 5: DS2480B Adapter Not Detected

This works ok on:

It also worked ok on:
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-24-generic #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 14:17:33 UTC 2010 i686

It does not work on either of these mainline builds:
 2.6.32-0206322109-generic
 2.6.36-999.201009261124
The same error seems to be occurring.

Shortly I'll attach two straces - one where the digitemp program works
(2.6.32-22-generic) and another where it does not (2.6.24-25-generic).

I got some feedback that the quirks entries were only added in 2.6.34.

I tried copying some data to  a disk containing an ext3 filesystem, connected

[Bug 550010] Re: Unable to transfer digital video content from SONY camcorder to PC

2010-09-28 Thread Vince McIntyre
Despite the reassurances about bus reset loops in
https://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Release_Notes#Linux_2.6.35 it
appears  there is some work for upstream to do here.

I found http://user.in-berlin.de/~s5r6/linux1394/utils/ and ran the 
test_cycle_time_v20100125.c utility.
This reports:
  

  004063 VIA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

  33231 cycleOffset backwards out of 20357581 samples (1.63e-03)
  0 cycleCount backwards (0.00e+00)
  0 cycleSeconds backwards (0.00e+00)

Which suggests the firewire card I am using needs a quirks entry. Unclear why 
it worked before, then.
Anyway I reported this to linux1394-de...@lists.sourceforge.net.

[Bug 550010] Re: Unable to transfer digital video content from SONY camcorder to PC

2010-09-28 Thread Vince McIntyre
This affects Lucid as well. Since this is a long-term release it would
be nice if we could figure out a way forward for users of firewire
cameras (and Kino).

I have a  Sony DSR-PDX10P. In Karmic I was able to use Kino to capture
DV, it worked reasonably well.

I upgraded to Lucid a couple of months ago and tried capturing video
today.


First I tried with the old firewire stack.
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17 20:26:08 UTC 2010 i686 
GNU/Linux

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-firewire.conf
# Select the legacy firewire stack over the new CONFIG_FIREWIRE one.

#blacklist ohci1394
#blacklist sbp2
#blacklist dv1394
#blacklist raw1394
#blacklist video1394

blacklist firewire-ohci
blacklist firewire-sbp2

Probe in the raw1394 module since it doesn't happen automatically for some 
reason.
$ modprobe raw1394

In dmesg I get
[  226.909428] ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized

When I plug the camera in using the firewire interface and then turn it on I 
get messages like this spewing in dmesg:
[  241.256574] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.260572] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.264571] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.268571] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.269946] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.272571] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long
[  241.273946] ohci1394: fw-host0: isochronous cycle too long

The /dev/raw1394 file has the wrong ownerships as well, group owner is
root, not video.

I hacked /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules, guided by LP300239#4:
  KERNEL=="video1394-[0-9]*", NAME="video1394/%n", GROUP="video"
+KERNEL=="raw1394", GROUP="video"

and rebooted.

Try again - plug in firewire cable, turn on camera. Same spew in dmesg.

I started up Kino, and clicked on the 'Capture' icon.
The interface prints two sets of messages, alternating every second or less;
one about being unable to address /dev/raw1394 and the other about not being
able to find an AV/C compliant camera. The spew in dmesg continues.


Second test - I changed to the new stack as per 
https://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Juju_Migration
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17 20:26:08 UTC 2010 i686 
GNU/Linux

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-firewire.conf

# comment these out to use the old stack
blacklist ohci1394
blacklist sbp2
blacklist dv1394
blacklist raw1394
blacklist video1394

# comment these out to use the new stack
#blacklist firewire-ohci
#blacklist firewire-sbp2


Update initramfs
$ sudo update-initramfs -k all -u

Edit /lib/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules to force the group ownership
  SUBSYSTEM=="firewire", ATTR{units}=="*0x00a02d:0x010001*", GROUP="video"
+ SUBSYSTEM=="firewire", GROUP="video"

Check library versions
$ apt-show-versions |grep libdc1394
libdc1394-22/lucid uptodate 2.1.2-2
$ apt-show-versions |grep libraw
libraw1394-11/lucid uptodate 2.0.4-1ubuntu2

$ sudo reboot
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17 20:26:08 UTC 2010 i686

$ lsmod |grep fire

firewire_core  44510  1 firewire_ohci
crc_itu_t   1371  1 firewire_core

$ lsmod |grep 1394
$

So far so good. Plug in camera, turn it on. Pretty much the same result
in dmesg:

[Bug 625265] Re: rtl8187: spontaneously disassociates

2010-09-19 Thread Vince McIntyre
I omitted to remove the needs-upstream-testing tag, I'm not that
familiar with all the LP functions.

I noted in the bug I that tested with linux-image-2.6.35-020635rc1-generic.
That has the same problems.

I tested again, with 
linux-image-2.6.32-0206322109-generic_2.6.32-0206322109.201008271507_i386.deb
from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32.21.9-lucid/
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-0206322109-generic #201008271507 SMP Fri Aug 27 16:10:51 
UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I tried this for a couple of days. The interface falls over after a few
minutes to a few hours.

Here's what dmesg says about the insertion (hot-plug) of the device
with that kernel:

[ 1212.644016] usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

[ 1219.124968] wlan1: associated
[ 1219.130471] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan1: link becomes ready

And then I get only these items in dmesg:
[ 1986.324027] [drm] nouveau :01:00.0: Setting dpms mode 1 on vga encoder 
(output 1)
[ 7582.500014] No probe response from AP 00:04:ed:b9:1c:d7 after 500ms, 
disconnecting.

After bringing the interface up (again static IP config, WEP encryption)
iwconfig reports this
ubuntu$ sudo iwconfig wlan1
wlan1 IEEE 802.11bg  ESSID:"My Net's home"
  Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point: 00:04:ED:B9:1C:D7

  Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
  Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0


While waiting for a response to the initial report I added a pci-based wireless
card to the system, which reports about -80 dBm vs -50 dBm from the netgear.
Not clear why the difference is so large, they are less than a metre apart,
(not too close, in case of interference).
The pci card antenna is connected fine, the system case is not metal (Dell).

I shut down this interface and started another test with just the netgear.
It failed in exactly the same way as before.

here's dmesg for when the interface comes up:
[90153.178570] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan1: link is not ready
[90155.261318] wlan1: direct probe to AP 00:04:ed:b9:1c:d7 (try 1)

aid=4)
[90155.269191] wlan1: associated
[90155.274688] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan1: link becomes ready

later I find the interface in this state:
wlan1 IEEE 802.11bg  ESSID:off/any  
  Mode:Managed  Access Point: Not-Associated   Tx-Power=20 dBm   
  Retry  long limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
  Encryption key:F43E-D0B4-6B
  Power Management:off

and this in dmesg:
[90767.052019] [drm] nouveau :01:00.0: Setting dpms mode 1 on vga encoder 
(output 1)
[91104.500017] No probe response from AP 00:04:ed:b9:1c:d7 after 500ms, 
disconnecting.


Reporting on this is being complicated by something strange happening
with logging using this kernel.
dmesg is updating, but I am not getting kernel messages in the other logs.
Every time I restart rsyslogd I get in /var/log/kern.log:
  Sep 17 21:17:11 ubuntu kernel: imklog: Cannot read proc file system, 1.

I see syslog messages for cron jobs etc but not kernel-related things.
Not sure if there is anything I can do about this, please advise.

I was able to connect to other servers and tunnel X11 to them, at the same time

2010-09-10 Thread Vince McIntyre
This bug affected me on Lucid as well.

$ apt-show-versions |grep ssh
openssh-client/lucid-updates uptodate 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu4
openssh-server/lucid-updates uptodate 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu4
ssh-askpass-gnome/lucid-updates uptodate 1:5.3p1-3ubuntu4

$ grep X11 /etc/ssh/sshd_config
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10

The only setting I needed to change was to set SSH_OPTS=-4 in /etc/defaults/ssh
and /etc/init.d/ssh restart.
Then I logged out and logged in again, and
 echo $DISPLAY
 localhost:10

I was connecting from a Mac running OSX 10.6.4 with the stock apple X11
and xterm.

[Bug 625265] Re: rtl8187: spontaneously disassociates

2010-09-02 Thread Vince McIntyre
Went back to 2.6.32-22-generic, since that fixed other issues
(LP:459732).

I installed linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic (version 2.6.32-22.36) and 
linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-33-generic (version 2.6.32-22.13) and 
rebooted, then selected
this kernel from the grub list.

The same failure occurs, with the same error message.
However I don't see the message about the bogus regulatory domain on this 
kernel.
So something has changed there. I haven't messed about with 'wireless-crda', the
version installed is 1.12, installed 2010-04-16.


Here's the timeline of associations and disassociations with
2.6.32-22-generic:

With regard to the regulatory domain, for 2.6.32-22-generic

[Bug 625265] [NEW] rtl8187: spontaneously disassociates

2010-08-27 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

I have a Netgear WG111(v3) USB dongle, lsusb id is  0846:4260.

The device is configured with a static IP address, and connects to an access 
point using WEP encryption.
The machine it is connected to is a Dell PC, located under a desk. Normally 
nobody is logged in via GDM,
network-manager is not running and it is not managing the interface.
The computer collects syslog information sent to it over the wireless 
interface, at present from only one host.

After a few hours the device disconnects with this message:

Aug 26 18:12:24 ubuntu kernel: [606323.620015] No probe response from AP 
00:04:ed:00:00:00 after 500ms, disconnecting.

4 KHz), (300 mBi, 2000 mBm)

The interval before disconnection is variable, but usually more than 1 hour.
I have a cron job that stops and starts the interface once per day
$ cat /etc/cron.d/wireless-restart
55 0 * * *  root  (/sbin/ifdown wlan1; sleep 15; /sbin/ifup wlan1) 1>/dev/null 
2>&1

This always works, ie the interface comes up, but it disconnects again
after a few hours.

Notes:
The AP MAC address looks bogus but it is in fact ok.

Signal strength is reasonable, according to iwconfig:
 iwconfig wlan1

I've tried this setup for a few days  with a mainline build,

I see the same behaviour.

The only other thing I have noticed is on ifup I see a message about the wrong

[Bug 459732] Re: wireless internet problem on WG111v3 (RTL8187b)

2010-05-23 Thread Vince McIntyre
I don't see what more I can say but here goes:
 * This machine is a clean install of lucid, I did not dist-upgrade from karmic.
 * Before upgrading, to keep the network up some of the time I had a cron job 
that did 
 'ifdown wlan1 && sleep 10 && ifup wlan1'
every 4 minutes (the disassociation occured every 5 minutes).
   I disabled this cron job.
 * I did an aptitude full-upgrade on 2010-05-10 (or 09, not sure), which pulled 
in the packages noted in #12.
 * I rebooted, with the USB device attached.
 * The system is normally left running with nobody logged in to a gnome 
session. I did not try logging in to gnome and looking for instability.
 * I don't have wicd or network-manager installed.
I have an entry for the device in /etc/network/interfaces, so it should be 
getting configured by 'ifupdown' (see #10).
 * As far as I can tell from 'dbus-monitor --system' dbus is not controlling 
the device,
   although there is a control file for network interfaces in /etc/dbus-1/. 
This might change if I start a gnome session
   but I haven't tried this.

Questions for tarung1793:
 * Do you have the linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic package 
installed.
I suspect that is where the fix was applied. 

 * When you say 'not always working' what exactly do you mean - for example:
- "it works every other boot", or
- "it works one boot in 10", or
- "it randomly fails and resumes even without rebooting."
 * I think it would help to post some dmesg or syslog excerpts of boots where 
the device is working and where the device failing (while you are running 
2.6.32-22), to help the maintainers understand what is happening differently in 
the "works" and "not working" cases.
 * What is controlling the network device - wicd, nm, ifupdown?
 * Is your machine running a fresh install of lucid or did you dist-upgrade? It 
could be there is some cruft left behind by the upgrade.

[Bug 566811] Re: gnome-nettool: documentation describes a removed feature (connections tab)

2010-05-09 Thread Vince McIntyre
The comment about not installing the package at all is odd. I didn't manually 
select the package for installation.
As far as I can tell it's part of the default install. I installed the Ubuntu 
Studio flavour, so perhaps that's why it is still being installed. I've been 
dist-upgrading every few days and gnome-nettool is still there.

To clarify which documentation I was looking at - the help button from
within network tool.

#575694 is referring to more or less the same issue but refers to the 
'gnome-network-admin' package.
I am reporting an issue with 'gnome-nettool'. Strangely there is no Source: 
line in the package description
for this package, so I'm not sure if it belongs with gnome-system-tools, but 
perhaps it does.

I thought I might give back to Ubuntu by reporting that something seemed to be 
wrong.

[Bug 459732] Re: wireless internet problem on WG111v3 (RTL8187b)

2010-05-09 Thread Vince McIntyre
This appears to be fixed for me, after the following upgrades (excerpted
from /var/log/apt/history.log)

Install:
  linux-headers-2.6.32-22 (2.6.32-22.33), 
  linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic (2.6.32-22.33),
  linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-22-generic (2.6.32-22.13)
  linux-headers-2.6.32-22-generic (2.6.32-22.33)

Upgrade:
   linux-headers-generic (2.6.32.21.22, 2.6.32.22.23)
   linux-image-generic (2.6.32.21.22, 2.6.32.22.23)
   linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic (2.6.32.21.22, 2.6.32.22.23),
   linux-libc-dev (2.6.32-21.32, 2.6.32-22.33)
   linux-generic (2.6.32.21.22, 2.6.32.22.23)
   linux-source-2.6.32 (2.6.32-21.32, 2.6.32-22.33)

There were other upgrades but I doubt they were relevant.

The changelogs were not especially helpful, there was one reference to #567016
which addresses another realtek driver (rtl8192se).

The relevant bit of git history _may_ be here somewhere:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-lucid.git;a=history;f=drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x;h=f0819aaf4948e34a44d9d685615ddee74271cd70;hb=f0819aaf4948e34a44d9d685615ddee74271cd70

In particular, the rfkill patch, at a guess:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-lucid.git;a=commit;h=1abb41521040db929998e107a067879978c3ec9b

2010-05-03 Thread Vince McIntyre
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 574067 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574067

Setting this to duplicate status is wrong.

I reported this bug because the documentation was at odds with what I saw in 
the tool.
So with the new information that the tool was changed on purpose (was this 
mentioned in the package README??),
this bug should be retitled - 'gnome-nettool: documentation describes a removed 
feature (connections tab)'.

Why is this package even in the release?
In the default list of packages that get installed with the desktop and are 
accessible from the desktop menu?
Thank you for wasting my time. Not.

[Bug 566811] Re: gnome-nettool: does not show 'connections' tab

2010-04-20 Thread Vince McIntyre
I don't understand why you think this is incomplete.

1. I already gave you this.
2. Let me spell it out for you:
I opened the tool and expected to see four tabs, as is documented in the 
help pages for the tool.
3. Again, rehashing what I already told you:
Instead, I see three tabs, 'General', 'DNS' and 'Hosts'. The 'Connections' 
tab noted in the manual is completely absent. I don't see what more detail I 
can provide.

I used ubuntu-bug to report this, that is where Dependencies.txt came from. 
I don't have any control over how much information ubuntu-bug decides to put in 
the job.
I tried the 'report a bug' item in the help menu but that didn't appear to do 
anything, I'm guessing
this is because gnome-nettool doesn't have proper 'apport' support in it.

Perhaps you could tell me precisely what you think is missing instead of
cutting&pasting the 'how to report text'.

What I observe in syslog is the card deauthenticating from the wireless network,
every 5 minutes or less, with 'Reason: 4), e.g.

Apr 19 07:48:49 ubuntu kernel: [150010.760375] wlan1: deauthenticated from 
00:09:5b:dd:8f:3a (Reason: 4)

This appears to be some kind of activity timeout, if the code is an official 
80211 code.
The message appears to be coming from 
/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/net/mac80211/mlme.c
The timeout seems to be defined in
/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/drivers/net/wireless/hostap/hostap_ap.c

This is weird because I am sending syslog packets (udp) to this machine,
ie there is wireless network traffic directed to that interface, every 10-60 
seconds.

I set up a cron job to do an outbound ping (box -> router) every 4 minutes.
Made no difference.

I changed the cron job to do an ifdown wlan1; sleep 5; ifup wlan1; every 4 
minutes.
This at least kept the interface up most of the time, but I still got (Reason: 
4).

I don't have network-manager or wicd installed. I do have wpasupplicant but I am
using wep, so that should not matter, correct. /etc/network/interfaces contains:

auto wlan1
iface wlan1 inet dhcp
  wireless-ap any
  wireless-essid mylittlenet
  wireless-key   d00b-ed00-6b
  wireless-mode  managed

I installed linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic, made no
difference.

The normal mode for this system is to sit quietly under a desk with nobody 
logged in.
I don't know why that should matter. I had a deauthentication while collating 
this report.

[Bug 566811] [NEW] does not show 'connections' tab

2010-04-19 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-nettool

running ubuntustudio lucid/i386, up to date as at 2010-04-20.

In the desktop I go to System->Administration->Network.
The gnome-nettool opens. It shows 'General', 'DNS' and 'Hosts' info, all 
correct.
There is no Connections tab. The help pages are almost entirely devoted to this 
tab,
so there must be something seriously wrong here.

Hi Damien

are you using "stock" ubuntu or did you compile more recent v4l-dvb
drivers yourself?

Could you post dmesg output from booting up the working version? 
It would be particularly helpful if you could boot, then try to tune the 
receiver with dvbscan or equivalently try to watch live tv in mythtv, then run 
dmesg.

[Bug 459523] Re: regression: support for dvico dual digital 4 card

2009-10-30 Thread Vince McIntyre

I was able to get 2.6.31-14-generic to boot. I did not try tuning with this, I 
doubt it will make any difference.

I tried building the v4l tree:

  $ cd v4l-dvb
  $ make update; make ;
The build dies on the FiredTV driver for some reason, so turn it off.
  $ sed -ie 's/CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV=m/CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV=n/' v4l/.config;
  $ make clean; make; sudo make install

Then I shut down, and pulled the power to get a cold boot.
Boot, and try to tune, stracing as we do
  $ sudo strace -t -F -ff dvbscan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/au-Sydney_North_Shore | 
tee northshore.conf
It fails with "Unable to query frontend status".
  $ dmesg

The log file is attached as log.dvbscan.20091031

2009-10-30 Thread Vince McIntyre
Hi Bob
it would probably help people processing this report quite a bit to have the 
output of a working Jaunty system.

Could you post 'dmesg' from the following sequence of events:
 * disable mythtv if you have it installed (rename the /etc/init.d scripts)
 * shut down, pull the power.
 * boot
 * try a dvbscan, as shown above.
 * sudo dmesg >jaunty.dmesg

It would also help to clarify the exact kernel package you're running:
 * uname -r > jaunty.kernel-version
 * dpkg -l linux-image\* >> jaunty.kernel-version

Could you also say if you are using any self-compiled modules from the
v4l mercurial tree?

It would also help to know the kernel version you are using in karmic:
 * uname -a  > karmic.kernel-version
 * dpkg -l linux-image\* >> karmic.kernel-version
 * are you using self-compiled v4l modules? I am about to try this.

[Bug 459523] [NEW] regression: support for dvico dual digital 4 card

2009-10-23 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image

Hi

symptom:

I have two dvico cards in this machine, dual digital4 and dual digtial express, 
see lspci data.
Both work on 'hardy', with v4l modules from the v4l mercurial repository. I'll 
provide more details of that setup shortly.

On karmic the kernel recognizes this card but appears to be unable to make it 
tune. When I try to tune with 'dvb-utils' 'scan' program, I get syslog spew:
 kernel: [  315.032076] dvb-usb: bulk message failed: -110 (4/0)
 kernel: [  315.032080] cxusb: i2c read failed
 kernel: [  317.132138] dvb-usb: bulk message failed:  -110 (4/0)
 kernel: [  317.132143] cxusb: i2c read failed
 ...
and the card is unable to tune.

Initially the spew is slow, about 1 per second.
If I rmmod cxusb, the spew stops.
If I then modprobe -v cxusb module, the spew resumes at a dramatically higher 
rate.

To reproduce:
--

cold-boot the machine. the power supply must be off. unplug if unsure.

To make the kernel initialise it properly I had to add some firmware
(/lib/firmware/xc3028-v27.fw, md5sum 293dc5e915d9a0f74a368f8a2ce3cc10).
This is normal for this card and seems to work ok.

Try to tune with:
  $  dvbscan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/au-Sydney_North_Shore | tee northshore.conf
and see how far you get.

Things I tried:
-
I tried to install the latest generic kernel (2.6.31-14.48) but there is some 
other bug preventing it from booting.

I tried ubuntu-bug -p, but got a warning
 $ ubuntu-bug -p linux  
Warning: The options -p/-P are deprecated, please do not use them.  See 
/usr/bin/ubuntu-bug --help

so I gave up on that approach and will append the requested details shortly.
Perhaps the linux-meta guidelines should be updated?

There are several reports of this kind of problem, going back to the hardy 
kernel, I'll try to provide a summary.
In fact on that setup I get similar kinds of syslog spew when shutting down and 
sometimes when I warm-boot,
but the cards do at least work if I cold boot.
Unfortunately nobody on the linux-media/linux-dvb list who could do something 
about this seems to care.
Perhaps they are waiting for a good bug report, I dunno.

I should have added to 'what happened'

 - from the initramfs shell, I halted the machine
 - power off, wait, power on.
 - boot 2.6.31-13-generic - it booted fine.

I did not gather a lot more detail as I was looking at other issues when
this cropped up.

[Bug 454418] [NEW] grub misconfigured after upgrade to linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic

2009-10-17 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub-pc

What happened:

I was running linux-image-2.6.31-13-generic. I upgraded to 
linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic using
  sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
There was a minor issue with linux-firmware which might be related, but a 
second safe-upgrade fixed the linux-firmware package and did not appear to 
trigger any grub-related activity. (I'd point to the comments I made in another 
bug but I can't find it with any search I do on bugs in 'linux-firmware')

I shut down the system, and powered off. Waited 10-20sec.
I powered up the system, got the grub menu and the new kernel was listed first 
in the list, as expected.
I hit return to boot it and it started - I saw the bootsplash screen etc.
Then I saw these lines on screen
  udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
  udevadm settle is not permitted while udev is unconfigured
  svgalib: cannot open /dev/mem
... some lines with advice about what to do...
  /dev/disk/by-uuid/9eccc..etc.. does not exist! Dropping to a shell.

The uuid shown was the correct uuid for the root of the installation (the same 
as used by the 2.6.31-13-generic kernel)
It appears that something has gone awry with the grub entry for this kernel.


I don't have access to more detail (eg grub versions) right now.
The box has two hard disk, with hardy on one and karmic on the other and it is 
back in production.
I can get more details as required in a few days' time.


What I was expecting to see:

a normal boot


Steps to reproduce

It appears all that is required is to safe-upgrade when you have
linux-image-2.6.31-13-generic installed and linux-image-2.6.31-14-generic 
pending for install.

I got a crash report on upgrading from 1.21 to 1.24 (along with a heap - about 
2weeks of updates).
I started the upgrade at about 2009-10-18T00:30:00 GMT, local time 11:30.

[Bug 309877] [NEW] cupsd fails to restart on upgrade

2008-12-19 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: cups

This is probably the same underlying issue as 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/304039, but I see different symptoms.
My system is currently working ok but the upgrade process was not as smooth as 
it should be.

I did a 'sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude safe-upgrade;' and during the 
upgrade of the 'cups' package aptitude seemed to hang. I hit ^c to skip it, but 
had to do this twice. I then got a message as in #304039,
  E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to 
correct the problem.
I tried that, but things still seemed to get stuck. ^c again.
I found with 'top' that there were now 3 cupsd processes running, so I killed 
them (kill -KILL, also tried killall cupsd)
and tried dpkg --configure -a again. No obvious improvement.

Apologies that this report is a little vague, as I was in a bit of a
hurry and did not make detailed notes.

I had to leave the system,  but when I came back to it 12 hours later, things 
seemed to be working.
I reran 'dpkg --configure -a'  but got no output on the terminal, it's unclear 
that the command did anything.

It's possible this is related to the flaky USB connection to the printer. The 
electrical contact is not always good,
though I have taken steps to ensure the USB connector has reasonable contact 
and doesn't jiggle around.
I can't recall if the device was showing as connected at the time.

/var/log/kern.log contained  these lines,  which may be of use.

The 'Also affects project' link was new to me, I thought it was a way to
flag the same bug affects other packages.

I can't see any need to link this to upstream projects at this time.

The other packages I noticed this affecting were
epiphany-browser2.24.1-0ubuntu1 
firefox  3.0.4+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1

[Bug 301596] Re: crashes with "pure virtual method called; terminate called without an active exception"

2008-11-24 Thread Vince McIntyre
As I was attempting (in galeon) to add an 'Also affects project' link, I got 
_another_ crash.
This time the error from galeon as 'Segmentation fault'.

I haven't seen this behaviour before, the machine has been quite
stable since the release in October, even though I have been updating
regularly as new packages for Intrepid come out.

[Bug 301596] [NEW] crashes with "pure virtual method called; terminate called without an active exception"

2008-11-24 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

version is 2.0.6-2 on i386.
System is running the Intrepid release, all packages up to date.

I was connected to an HTTPS site. After  a few form submissions, the browser 
crashes and burns,
On the terminal I launched the program from was this message:

  pure virtual method called
  terminate called without an active exception

The startup sequence:
ub$ /bin/rm -rf ~/.galeon
ub$ galeon&
** (galeon:11973): WARNING **: I could not load the bookmarks file, will load 
the default bookmarks from /usr/share/galeon/default-bookmarks.xbel.

I'm reporting this because I was getting the same kind of problem (sudden 
crash) with firefox,
which I finally got sick of and uninstalled. I didn't see any error messages 
from firefox.

This also happens with epiphany, it fails with 'Segmentation fault'.

** Affects: galeon (Ubuntu)

[Bug 243504] Re: mythtv-setup: unable to connect to database

2008-07-04 Thread Vince McIntyre
ugh - i hate launchpad. it just lost my entire post.

I went back through my notes. They leave a little to be desired...

At the time I installed the "mythtv" metapackage, I did not have support for my 
DVB-T card working.
It is a Dvico model that is not yet supported by the mainline v4l tree. (I got 
it working with the branch
made available by Chris Pascoe back in December 2007).
So, I would probably have answered many debconf questions by taking the default.
I don't think I would have given unusable inputs.

I would not have had mysql-5.0-server installed at the time, I would have let 
the installation of mythtv
pull it in as a dependency.

My notes tell me:
 * I installed "mythtv" and debconf told me I need to run "mythtv-setup" as a 
member of the mythtv group.
 * I added my unpriviledged account to that group
 * I ran sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
I answered "no" to the question about "remote access"
 * I installed mythexport
 * I installed mythwe
I did not set a mythweb password.
 * Something prompted me for a "mythtv p/w", which was stored in 
/etc/mythtv/mysql.txt.
This appears to be the user for the mythtv tables in the database.
I do not recall getting prompted for a mysql 'administrator/root' user at 
this time;
my notes would have recorded the password.
 * I ran dpkg-reconfigure lirc

I also went and poked at my debconf database; below I show the output of
  debconf-get-selections | grep -A 0 -B 1 mythtv;
  debconf-get-selections | grep -A 0 -B 1 mysql
Most of these would be the original answers; the only dpkg-reconfigure changes 
I have made
should be in the posts I have already made to this bug.
In particular - mythtv-common:mythtv/mysql_mythtv_password was the value I have 
in my notes on paper,
but mythtv-database:mythtv/mysql_admin_password is the value I set when I ran 
dpkg-reconfigure.
I don't recall having to set it before and would not have used the same value.

Hope this sheds some light.
Vince

application (server)

what happens - I cannot complete the configuration of mythtv with
mythtv-setup. This appears to be because the mysql database is not fully
populated.

what should happen - I should be able to set up mythtv.

I left these as defaults, and hit  immediately.
(Oh, and it shows "No UPnP devices available", to which I say "OK" since there 
is nothing else to say.

I checked for .my.cnf files and so forth, could find none in my home dir nor in

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-backend

Then it asks me to run mythtv-setup. oh. Well that's going to be a problem.
Then I have to start mythtv-backend again.

Try that anyway:
$ /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
$ /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
(no errors, let's stop again)
$ /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
$ mythtv-setup

[Bug 149106] Re: package cupsys 1.3.2-1ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/doc/libcupsys2/CREDITS.txt', which is also in package libcupsys2

2007-10-04 Thread Vince McIntyre
I had the same error as the initial report.
However when trying to install the .deb by force, I get further errors, see 
below.
So that method won't work for all cases.

[Bug 141391] postinstall fails if /usr/local is readonly

2007-09-20 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python2.5-dbg

Version: 2.5-2ubuntu2
Severity: normal

Hi,

this was a problem with TeTex for a while too, but they worked around it.
The /usr/local partition is an NFS mount and is not writeable by all hosts,
including the one showing this issue.
I can probably just create the directory it wants and have the update succeed
but I thought the policy was to leave /usr/local alone. 

Here's what happens

# apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree   
Reading state information... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
  linux-headers-server linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?

[Bug 71599] doesn't create /var/crash (?)

2006-11-12 Thread Vince McIntyre
Public bug reported:

This occurred on a machine that has been dist-upgraded from
breezy to etch and all the points in between, with official sources.

If apport is installed, the /etc/cron.daily/apport script tries to run
a find over /var/crash and that directory may not actually be there.
This generates irritating emails to root.

If the other bits of apport create /var/crash at the time of the first
crash after installation, then perhaps the cron.daily needs this patch:

--- apport.old  2006-10-10 00:49:47.0 +1000
+++ apport 2006-11-13 15:50:17.0 +1100
