[Bug 1289730] [NEW] systemd-udev fails to execute alsactl during start-up if /usr and/or /var are separate volumes

2014-03-08 Thread Dominik Kubla
Public bug reported:

During system startup systemd-udev will print the following error
messages:

[   15.089778] systemd-udevd[683]: failed to execute '/usr/sbin/alsactl' 
'/usr/sbin/alsactl -E HOME=/var/run/alsa restore 0': No such file or directory
[   15.090130] systemd-udevd[684]: failed to execute '/usr/sbin/alsactl' 
'/usr/sbin/alsactl -E HOME=/var/run/alsa restore 1': No such file or directory

alsactl is present:

$ which alsactl
/usr/sbin/alsactl

but on a separate partition:
$ df -h /usr/sbin/alsactl 
DateisystemGröße Benutzt Verf. Verw% Eingehängt auf
/dev/mapper/scaleo-usr   12G6,6G  4,1G   62% /usr

$ df -h /var
DateisystemGröße Benutzt Verf. Verw% Eingehängt auf
/dev/mapper/scaleo-var  7,3G2,5G  4,4G   37% /var

This suggests that systemd-udev is called before all local partitions
have been mounted.

Additonally deja-dup-preferences vanished from System Preferences, but
that should perhaps be logged as a different bug.

Downgrading deja-dup/duplicity to the saucy versions restores
functionality.

[Bug 499006] [NEW] RFE: apt-build should default to architecture "native" with newer GCC releases

2009-12-21 Thread Dominik Kubla
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt-build

Since it is not really obvious which GCC architecture setting is the
appropriate one, it would be better to always use "native" if the
installed GCC version supports it. That should be the correct setting
for most users.

[Bug 430374] Re: init: mountall main process terminated with status 1

2009-09-16 Thread Dominik Kubla
Just updated to version 0.1.4 (among other updates) and that seems to
fix it.

Of course I had to boot from a USB stick and chroot to the environment
on the harddisk to fix it. Would be nice if we could somehow come up
with something along the line how Opensolaris handles updates: ZFS
snapshot and alternate boot environment for the old version.

Hi Martin,

sorry about the delay.

Unfortunately this does not solve the problem. xev still reports the key as 
XF86Tools.

Everything else works just fine. Since I have already replaced the keyboard for 
daily work and no one else has come forward owning one of these, closing the 
bug at this stage is fine from my point of view.

Many thanks for your efforts!

The device number depends on whether the wireless keyboard is connected
at boot time. If it is they are 6+7, otherwise 7+8.

Here is the output as requested.

After modifying it to:

The udevadm output looks better. But still no luck.

No luck. If I run the kbd command manually it works. I still think we
are trying to redefine on the wrong input device...

Is there a way to trace the whole sequence done during boot-up?

It seems to me that we are trying to load the keycode on the wrong input
device. If I use the first one  (event7) I get EVIOCGKEYCODE (see
keymap.trace), if I use the second one (event8) it works (see
keymap.trace2)

Hi Martin,

the mute key now works, but the media key still returns "config" which
is translated to "XF86Tools":

domi...@scaleo:~$ sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event7
Press ESC to finish

It changed because I unplugged my normal keyboard and attached this one.
Now I have booted with both keyboards attached.

The special keys show up on input/event7.

except for the "Media Player" key being mapped to XF86Tools instead of 
XF86Music everything works out of the box.
All function keys, the scroll wheels (both mouse and keyboard) and all mouse

[Bug 94366] Re: Wishlist: XKB Support for X-Tension XK-200 Multimedia Keyboard

2009-05-19 Thread Dominik Kubla
It appears to be that my keyboard is broken: It show the same behaviour
on Windows Vista.

In any case the configuration appears to be correct, but  my original
keycode list had an error: keycode 179 should be mapped to XF86Music,
not keycode 129.

Good news is that everything else works as expected. Great job!

For completeness here are the debug outputs as recommended by the
troubleshooting guide:

2009-05-19 Thread Dominik Kubla
Martin,

I attached the keyboard to my workstation. It was recognized correctly
but somehow configured wrong (Shift key had no function and some other
oddities), so I could not use it. I'll try again and give you the
desired output.

To answer your question how I determined the key codes: I ran xev and
pressed all keys one by one.  :-)

Cheers,
  Dominik

[Bug 210847] Re: Configuration dialog for WPA/EAP doesn't fit small in small screens

2009-04-22 Thread Dominik Kubla
1. In Ubuntu 9.04 RC: Start your desktop in 800x480 pixels resolution (as on a 
Asus EeePC) or run Netbook Remix in a VM at this resolution.
2. Open network properties from the NM applet.
3. Select your network connection (actually any connection entry will do) and 
click on edit.
4. The resulting dialog will be cut off at the bottom.

Cheers,
  Dominik

[Bug 365052] [NEW] Disabling wireless connection should trigger rfkill

2009-04-22 Thread Dominik Kubla
Public bug reported:

When disabling wireless networking in the network manager applet, the
rfkill switch for the wireless card should be triggered.

For two reasons:
1) No sense drawing power for the transmitter if the user does not want to use 
wireless.
2) On some systems (eg. EeePC) there is no hw switch, so disabling the wireless 
connectivity should kill all wireless activity.

Furthermore due to 2) all wireless drivers should initialize with rfkill
enabled and wait for NM to enable wireless communications. Otherwise
booting a device without a hw switch on a plane could cause problems.
(So this affects NM and the kernel as well). Perhaps this should be a
configuration option: default to on, default to off, default to last
status.

Thanks,
  Dominik

[Bug 365049] [NEW] NM applet should allow to set the CRDA domain

2009-04-22 Thread Dominik Kubla
Public bug reported:

With recent Ubuntu kernels switching to userland CRDA it is no longer
possible to set the correct CRDA domain for wireless cards.

It can not be expected from casual users to install the optional "iw"
package and write a init script to set the correct regulatory domain.

Therefore the NetworkManger should take care of this and the
NetworkManager applet should offer the configuration option for each
configured WIFI connection. The initial configuration should set the
default based on the entered location (timezone).

Since violating the regulatory domain can cause legal problems for
Ubuntu users, this is a major concern.

Thanks,
  Dominik

[Bug 210847] Re: Configuration dialog for WPA/EAP doesn't fit small in small screens

2009-04-22 Thread Dominik Kubla
Is there any progress on this? This problem is still present on UNR 9.04
RC.

With NM being standard on UNR and said variant being promoted for
devices with a resolution as low as 800x480 this is a real problem.

And it's not just the WPA dialog, it's every dialog except "connection
information" which does not fit on small screens.

That makes the applet pretty much unusable on Netbook Remix.

Thanks,
  Dominik

Hi Brian,

I suppose this is still an issue, since:
* I always have to load my .Xmodmap file to activate the extra keys.
* There is no profile for Kubuntu to use the multi-media keys consistently.

BTW.
* The "Windows" and "Menu" keys are mapped to modifiers, but they are also not 
used consistently throughout.

Is there a usability team for *ubuntu?

  Dominik

Matt,

it's true that Linux did and does a lot of things traditional Unices
didn't and don't do. But that is neither here nor there and I shouldn't
have mentioned this in the first place.

I raised my objections regarding mount by UUID and it's up to you guys
to check their validity regarding Ubuntu's goals.

As for the problem at hand: I am willing to aid in resolving this issue,
so if you want me to test something, let me know about it.

[Bug 54002] Re: LVM/MD root filesystem not found by uuid

2006-09-12 Thread Dominik Kubla
Scott,

nobody does mount by UUID. Neither *BSD, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, Tru64 does
it. These Unix derivatives have pretty smart engineering teams around.
That should tell you something...

As for the valid configurations:

Category A (Will probably never work):

1. loopback mounts (eg. crypto root) -> kills secure mobile devices
2. network mounts (eg. nfs root or raid with nbd) -> kills one half of thin 
client setups
3. layered mounts (eg. unionfs) -> kills the other half of thin client setups 
and one half of embedded devices
4. tmpfs root -> kills the other half of embedded devices

Category B (Probably resolveable but changes expected behaviour)

5. disaster recovery with replicated root file systems (eg. rsync): there the 
UUIDs of both filesystem have to be different, otherwise they wouldn't be 
unique -> kills quite common DR strategy and effectively kills the use in 
corporate server environments
6. bare metal recovery: restore tape backup to newly installed system will 
result in a unbootable setup because UUID no longer matches... -> a support 
nightmare, effectively kills the use in corporate desktop environments

Category C (Has severe side-effects)

7. systems with SAN/iSCSI storage: udev will scan all devices it sees to
determine the UUID. this is likely to take a long time ((I know of hosts
with several hundred SAN storage volumes assigned to them)  and prone to
disrupting the operation of other hosts (since Linux does not honor SCSI
reservation)-> this kills the enterprise server setups.

I doubt that this is possible for all valid configurations. I could name at 
least six valid configurations/situations where it will not work out of the 
box, will not work ever or will have side-effects so severe that it will lead 
to an immediate ban of all Ubuntu installations by the authorities.

But for the problem at hand I think I may have found it. It looks like you 
have a circular dependency in /scripts/local-top:

I did a boot with break=mount, then sourced scripts/functions and executed 
run_scripts scripts/local-top. Then I checked /dev/disk. There were only 
directories by-id and by-path, no by-uuid.

md depends on udev. So udev will be called first. But it will not create 
by-UUID entries for RAID components. mdrun has not been executed at this time 
so it will also not create by-uuid entries for the MD devices.

Then md starts the RAID devices but udev already ran so the device links will 
never be created and the "mount root" step will wait forever for the device 
files to appear.

So I think you will have top put /dev/md* on the exclusion list as well. And 
that pretty much limits your new booting scheme to desktop systems without 
fault-tolerance or recovery features. Given the fact that Ubuntu now also 
targets the Enterprise desktop and server markets I'd have to say: Forget 
mount by-uuid.

  Dominik

We have two issues at hand:

1. Mounting by UUID does not work for MD in initramfs. I am trying to track 
this one down (but I think this is a waste of time because there will always 
be rather common scenarios where mounting by UUID will never work. But this 
should be discussed elsewhere). I'll have to rig a serial terminal to capture 
the console output and create a custom initramfs which will drop to a shell 
right before it attempts to mount the root device so that I can do some 
debugging.

2. update-grub changes MD to mount by UUID even so it does not work at the 
moment. This one is rather easy to fix:

--- update-grub.orig2006-09-11 20:49:34.0 +0200
+++ update-grub 2006-09-11 20:51:48.0 +0200

if [ -L "$DEV" ] && readlink | grep -q "^/dev/mapper/"
then

This can be backed-out when mounting by UUID for MD works.

No, I am not making assumptions. You stated that grub-update will not convert 
LVM/devmapper entries anymore to avoid corruption of the system boot process. 
I demonstrated that the system boot process is still corrupted for the rather 
simple case of root disks being mirrored with MD.

I went through this file line by line and I can say I have a rather good 
understanding what it attempts to do and what it does.

You are the one making assumptions here: about how a system is configured. 
That is something you can not know reliably. So following the principle of 
least impact you should not change anything without explicit consent by the 
system administrator requesting the task.

> If you have problems with the conversion, a constructive bug report with

My problem is that you convert the file at all. I do not want this setting to 
be converted, even if mounting by UUID would be working.

But as I understand now, the problem is not a technical one, so i will simply 
dpkg-divert /sbin/update-grub and disable the conversion stuff in my local 
copy and be done with it.

  Dominik

[Bug 54002] Re: LVM/MD root filesystem not found by uuid

2006-09-10 Thread Dominik Kubla
Matt,

I am not trying to be dense or malevolent. I am well aware that Edgy is
a development release, etc. But I am also a computer professional who
has to deal with incident reports on a daily basis, so I have a quite
good understanging of the issues involved. In my opinion the handling of
this bug report has not been adequate.

Just to demonstrate the facts:

# env COLUMNS=120 dpkg -l grub
[...]
ii  grub 0.97-11ubuntu10  GRand Unified Bootloader

# egrep -nC1 "Update.*root device.*UUID" /sbin/update-grub
751-
752:# Update the root device to mount-by-UUID
753-kopt=$(convert_kopt_to_uuid "$kopt")

# grep -c UUID /boot/grub/menu.lst
0
# /sbin/update-grub
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
Testing for an existing GRUB menu.list file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ...
Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-7-generic
Found kernel: /boot/memtest86+.bin
Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done

# grep -c UUID /boot/grub/menu.lst
3

So as you can see, even your "fixed" version silently corrupts the
system.

Against the expressed intention of the system owner/administrator who
changed the relevant configuration file.

Sorry, but this is simply not acceptable. Especially since upstream
Debian can detect manual changes of a config file and will not change
it.

[Bug 54002] grub-update screws up the system

2006-09-10 Thread Dominik Kubla
It's grub-update, which is part of grub. Any time a kernel package is
installed/updated, this script is executed.

For this reason I disagree with the rejection of this bug report by the
grub maintainer! A grub script is changing a working system
configuration into a non-working. This is most definitely a bug of the
grub package. Now the root cause of this bug might well be in some other
package but unless this has been determined _AND_ fixed, please stop
converting the boot options.

[Bug 54002] Re: No need to convert LVM volumes to UUIDs

2006-08-05 Thread Dominik Kubla
$ ls -l /dev/mapper
ls: /dev/mapper: No such file or directory

Your making assumptions again... As I said in the earlier message: You
simply can't know how a system looks like. So you'd better not change
settings that might break it without the expressed consent of the system
administrator.

Regards,
  Dominik

[Bug 54002] Re: No need to convert LVM volumes to UUIDs

2006-07-26 Thread Dominik Kubla
Don't know about LVM, but it certainly does not work with mirrored
disks using MD. The system is unable to boot because it can not find the
UUID before the MD device has been started. So the system just hangs
"waiting for root device..."

Silently converting the root device entry is VERY BAD! Even in a
development branch: You simply can't know enough about the installation
to do it reliably.

So simply ask the user if he wants to convert the entry and don't touch
the rescue entry unless the user has confirmed that the change worked.

udev: 093-0ubuntu7
initramfs-tools: 0.69ubuntu6

Kind regards,
  Dominik

[Bug 47683] Re: ntpd not compiled with debugging support

2006-06-15 Thread Dominik Kubla
ntpd must be compiled with debugging support since it is virtually
impossible to track down NTP problems without.
