[Bug 2079785] Re: apt / apt-get install produce spurious Warning

2024-09-08 Thread Colin Foster
Ah, spoke too soon.

BEFORE apt-utils installed - ALL installs produce W mesasge

AFTER apt-utils installed - NEW installs only produce W message; re-
installing packages which have been been removed does NOT produce W
message. Removing using 'apt purge' displays furterh warnings about
pemrission failures when deleting.

Test case

apt install xkcdpass  W message displayed
apt remove xkcdpass   no warnings
apt install xkcdpass  no message displayed
apt purge xkcdpasswarnings displayed - Permission denied removing 
file from /var/cache/man
apt install xkcdpass  no message displayed

[Bug 2079785] Re: apt / apt-get install produce spurious Warning

2024-09-05 Thread Colin Foster
Update - solution of sorts?

I noticed from the output of a batch update that immediately after all
the GET lines, there was

debconf: delaying package configuration, since apt-utils is not
installed

I must admit I've never heard of apt-utils, and it evidently isn't
installed as a dependency in the base system.

So, out of curiosity, I installed it (and of course got the W message).

However, subsequent installs are now clean - no more warnings.

So - either something in apt-utils is required (and so apt-utils should
be included in the minimal install configuration out the box) or
remediates the "problem" so may give you a clue as to its cause.

2024-09-05 Thread Colin Foster
** Description changed:

  A new minimal install of Ubuntu Server 24.04 has started giving a W
  message on completion of all installs:
  
  W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file
  '/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/' couldn't be accessed by
  user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)
  
  This seems to be spurious, as on checking
  /var/cache/apt/archives/partial has correct _apt:root ownership, mode
  700.
  
  I have set ownership on everything from /var/cache/apt down to
  _apt:root, but it makes no difference - the warning continues to be
  emitted on all installs, using both apt and apt-get.
  
  From widespread discussion I've found online, this seems to be a common
  issue with no obvious cause or solution other than to make root the
  sandbox user in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d, which seem to me to not be a
  solution at all! I agree that _apt should be used with reduced
  privileges for downloading, but it seems that something in the changes
  you made to implement this is broken.
  
+ The only non-standard thing about the install I can think of is that
+ /var is symlinked to /zen/var/ where /zen mounts another partition (we
+ prefer to keep data directories such as /var, /srv and /tmp off the
+ system volume). However, we have the same arrangement on other systems
+ and don't have this issue everywhere.

  I'll attach my ubuntu-bug report here, as the machine which generated it
  is headless.
  
  Thanks

[Bug 1947618] Re: [i915] CPU locks up on Ubuntu 21.10 boot when 2 displays are connected

2022-05-19 Thread Colin Foster
Confirmed, my system boots fine when that second monitor isn't plugged
in. I removed the bluetooth driver as well, but that didn't fix it.


This is the adapter I'm using (I believe):
https://us.amazon.com/NiaoChao-Adapter-Charging-Compatible-MacBook/dp/B08CRXD22M

I have a bunch of USBC / HDMI adapters around, so maybe other ones won't
halt the boot.

The kernel I'm running:
5.13.0-41-generic #46~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 20 13:16:21 UTC 2022 x86_64

[Bug 1947618] Re: [i915] CPU locks up on Ubuntu 21.10 boot when 2 displays are connected

2022-05-19 Thread Colin Foster
I'm seeing the same thing with 20.04 when running any of the 5.13
kernels. Last tested with 5.13.0-41.

My setup is an ASUS Hero XIII motherboard. Monitor plugged in, with a
second monitor plugged in via a USB / HDMI adapter (not sure if that is
relevant)

I had to remove iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm and iwlwifi-
ty-a0-gf-a0-63.ucode to get wifi to work, but the boot hangs with any
5.13 kernels. Only 5.11 will work, unfortunately.

Some of the bluetooth startup info when it fails (5.13):

Bluetooth: Core ver 2.22
 
NET: Registered protocol family 31

The startup info when it succeeds (5.11):

Reached target Bluetooth.

I haven't upgraded yet, but I booted to the 2022.04 image and I was pleased to 
see everything booted up without any issues. I'll see if there's anything else 
to try - maybe around that ibt-0041-0041.sfi firmware
