[Bug 1256730] Re: /usr/share/initramfs-toos/hooks/cryptroot does not honour the CRYPTSETUP variable

2018-09-05 Thread dragon788
If you run into this make sure when you are mounting and repairing in a
chroot via `cryptsetup open /dev/whatever mapper-name` that the `mapper-
name` matches what you have in your `/etc/crypttab`. You can get this by
booting from the LiveCD and manually mounting the encrypted partition.

Or try something like the script below which was tested on 18.04, but
may work for earlier versions as hopefully the APIs haven't changed much
for things like critical boot path.

[Bug 1767299] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Installer creates swap partition too small

2018-06-25 Thread dragon788
Per the above the flag appears to work, and it appears that setting the
cap still does the automatic detection when the system memory is equal
to or less than the cap.

For example I hardcoded 16384 per above to handle swap for our 32GB RAM
laptops, and on our 16GB RAM laptops it knows the system RAM is less and
correctly set the actual swap size to 16GB not 32GB.

I'm still not super enthusiastic that this change was applied globally
as the default, especially considering it is much easier to throw away
an essentially ephemeral cloud compute instance that was the use case
for changing the default in the first place, and those would be much
easier to customize and test with a flag than every enterprise using
Ubuntu for laptops having to scratch their head and hopefully learn
about and add this new flag. It gets even more challenging now that
there are laptops with 64 or 128GB of RAM available or coming out soon
which overlaps or exceeds many consumer or business desktops so they may
need to do model detection to figure out if it is a desktop or laptop
and increase the cap accordingly.

I really hope the error message is improved when attempting to
`systemctl hibernate` when there isn't a large enough swap partition,
and I also hope that the Hibernation wiki page(s) are updated to let
folks installing 18.04 know that unless they customize the partitions on
install or resize them after the fact, they will be unable to hibernate
their shiny new laptop and will have to settle for suspending or
completely powering off instead.

2018-06-25 Thread dragon788
It can also depend whether you have a discrete GPU or not, as sometimes
those don't properly power off and eat a lot more battery when running
and possibly when suspended. I frequently take my laptop home in case
the on-call phone rings, and if I suspend on a Thursday/Friday and I
don't pull it out of my bag and plug it in, if it is a holiday weekend I
may pull it out and have the battery at 10% or less, which doesn't last
long once you get on VPN and have the CPU crunching away at encryption,
and having a fully encrypted disk also eats more battery (and makes it
harder to do the LVM resize mentioned above).

I'm testing the above mentioned flag and it does appear to at least
create the correctly sized partition, though I'm not sure whether for a
32GB RAM system simply doubling 16384 is the right route or if I need to
add a little more space for overhead in order to hibernate correctly if
the RAM is full or close to full capacity when attempting to hibernate.

[Bug 1767299] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Installer creates swap partition too small

2018-06-22 Thread dragon788
I wonder if it is an opinion that the number of companies using Ubuntu
on laptops might be reduced starting with 18.04 considering the amount
of extra effort to write a completely custom partman recipe with a
larger swap (or assuming the answer above works in the preseed to
actually get the old behavior of 100% or so) in order to use hibernation
to conserve battery life, since suspend still tends to run a battery
down fairly quickly, and those that don't have access to power now have
to shut down their machines completely losing their working state rather
than being able to quickly hibernate and resume.

It makes me sad that rather than reuse a preseed that has worked across
multiple previous releases of Ubuntu without alteration I now have to
come up with a partman recipe to handle whether I need an EFI partition
or not as well as how large to make each individual partition including
the swap. I feel like introducing a new recipe or at least making it
opt-in for the change rather than automatically breaking existing
preseeds for everyone.

[Bug 1351267] Re: partman-auto prefers to give disk to swap, leaving root too small

2018-05-24 Thread dragon788
Did this somehow get enabled by default? There is a recently opened
issue where on 18.04 a previously working preseed with the partman-
auto/recipe select atomic is creating a tiny 1GB swap on systems with
16GB-32GB of RAM, preventing the ability to hibernate.

[Bug 1215262] Re: Automatically Disconnect When Switching Between VPNs

2017-08-25 Thread dragon788
I'm not entirely certain the graphical representation you are seeing is
due to any limitation in Network Manager. While I agree there should be
a disconnect all option for VPNs, I'm able to see and select multiple
VPNs to connect to in the UI, and in some cases I would NOT like to have
it force disconnect one connection to connect to another. What you may
be seeing is a common issue where if you don't specify the name of the
adapter to use (defaults to 'tun') then it trips over itself reusing the
same name over and over for each connection. Simply changing the device
name (it will create it when necessary as long as you have enough
permissions) will allow you to have multiple connections and activate
them at the same time.

2017-07-10 Thread dragon788
I was running into the same issue and finally by luck happened upon a
set of slides that allowed me to automate this and there was an
accompanying code repository with the full preseed file.
https://github.com/uweplonus/adia-
install/blob/master/initrd/preseed.cfg#L3

Many people suggest using `preseed/early_command umount /media/*` but
this hasn't worked for quite some time due to the timing of when the
preseed portion runs compared to the partitioning.

The correct way to do this is to add the following anywhere in your
preseed file that is referenced by the boot command.

```d-i partman/early_command string \
USBDEV=$(list-devices usb-partition | sed "s/\(.*\)./\1/");\
BOOTDEV=$(list-devices disk | grep -v "$USBDEV" | head -1);\
debconf-set partman-auto/disk $BOOTDEV;\
debconf-set grub-installer/bootdev $BOOTDEV; \
umount /media;

[Bug 1667750] Re: xhci_hcd: ERROR Transfer event TRB DMA ptr not part of current TD ep_index 2 comp_code 13

2017-07-07 Thread dragon788
Patrick, I definitely like your script as a quick workaround (as even
100Mb/s is better than our busy wireless), and I'm trying to make it a
little more generic.

If you run `udevadm info -e | grep -A 10 '^P.*enx'` what does it show
for ID_MODEL_ID and ID_NET_DRIVER and ID_NET_NAME? My system reports
8153 and 8152 and enp14s0u1u2 respectively for the TB16 and the TB15.
The only difference when testing with a Dell D59GG USB-C ethernet
adapter was the ID_NET_NAME changed because it wasn't going through the
ASMedia USB hub anymore.

Using the ID_NET_NAME may be a better way to identify the device as the
MAC address changes per host (my MAC was the same when connected to the
TB15 and TB16 and the USB-C adapter thanks to some previous kernel
patches that have gone upstream integrating the host fixed MAC, but the
ID_NET_NAME should be the same for all the docks (and hopefully a low
probability to overlap with USB2/USB3 gigabit ethernet adapters commonly
in use). The fixed MAC is nice as it keeps the same IP if I change
between docks or the USB-C within our LAN.

2017-07-06 Thread dragon788
Kai-Heng, did you run the command as root? Otherwise you may want to
`sudo su` and run the loop or "prime" your sudo by running `sudo echo`
(to get prompted for you password once) and then use the same loop but
instead of `> /path/to/file` use `| tee /path/to/file` and see if you
get different results.

I will bookmark this to test after my next restart, as I'm seeing the
same issue on boot, and I don't know that changing the system hardware
test from Automatic to Thorough or Quick in the BIOS will make a
difference.
