Description Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-27 16:35:02 CEST
Description of problem:On shutting down the last thing I see is a bug report GUI, but I don't have time to read it.  The following is the extract from syslog:

May 27 04:40:01 dougshost /USR/SBIN/CROND[16673]: (doug) CMD (/usr/bin/getmail &> /dev/null)
May 27 04:41:38 dougshost ntpd_intres[2850]: host name not found: 0.0.0.oceania.pool.ntp.org

There is nothing wrong with the getmail command: it is there to show that I got everything.  I have had problems with the time server after running another distro from a Live CD; it makes no allowance for time zone, and sets my local time to UTC.  I then have the very devil of a time connecting to a time server to fix it.

Comment 1 Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-28 03:35:27 CEST
This bug seems to have gone away.  The real issue must have been the ntpd problem.  The local time is GMT+10.  Last time it got out of step, it couldn't find the existing server pool (Australia) so I switched to Oceania.  This time it couldn't find Oceania, but it could find Australia.

Doing a soak test.
Comment 2 Manuel Hiebel 2012-05-28 12:41:54 CEST
so still valid or we can close ?
Comment 3 Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-28 13:01:56 CEST
It was back again today.  It seems to happen only on exiting with "shutdown -r" or "rebootin," not when exiting via an icon.  I am running Xfce.  I get a kdm at startup and gdm on leaving xfce. I need to make more observations.  It is no real problem.
Comment 4 Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-28 13:04:27 CEST
When it happens, a trace shows in the dialog.  Any way of logging that, perhaps by setting logging to verbose, somewhere?
Comment 5 Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-29 07:30:07 CEST
This time, I caught the words "net_applet" in the message box. The only references to net_applet in syslog say "Program is starting".

Would you like to close this vague bug, and I will lodge a new one against net_applet when I have better info?
Comment 6 Dave Hodgins 2012-05-29 09:41:46 CEST
Doug, Was this an upgrade or a clean install?  If an upgrade,
have you run "urpmi --auto-update"?

Comment 7 Doug Laidlaw 2012-05-29 10:19:00 CEST
It was an upgrade, Dave.  No updates have been coming through.  Just ran "urpmi --auto-update" now, and everything is up-to-date.

I have downloaded Rel 2 and will do a clean reinstall next week.  My monthly allocation is almost full (again) and there is no leeway for my selection of extras.

I did see a reference to Raleigh, the desktop in the trace, but net_applet is the trigger.

The bug doesn't stop shutdown or have any real effect, it just shouldn't be happening.  I will report further after the clean install.
Comment 8 Doug Laidlaw 2012-06-03 06:47:35 CEST
This is still in evidence in Mga 2.  If I can't catch it, I can't progress it much, but the following seems to be true:

It happens in Xfce, but I haven't seen it in KDE.

It doesn't happen if I shutdown via the logout button.  This may be because I then use gdm to reboot.  The steps there are logout-> shutdown from GDM, -> wait for the Grub menu.  In KDE, I can do it all in one step.

Or it could be simply that using a shutdown from either display manager, the net applet is stopped when I no longer have a terminal to see the error messages.  Using "shutdown" or "rebootin" from a terminal, I can see them.
Comment 9 Doug Laidlaw 2012-06-06 23:06:25 CEST
At last, something concrete.  I restarted net_applet with 2> a logfile, and captured this:

Gtk-Message **: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" at /usr/lib/libDrakX/mygtk2.pm line 20.

_ _ _ 

The actual bug window contains a reference to the Raleigh desktop, so it is not identical.

Using Mga 2 release with all updates, and Xfce desktop.

Hi,

Is this bug still happening in Mageia 3?

Comment 11 Doug Laidlaw 2013-09-05 15:38:02 CEST
Haven't noticed it for a while.  It was only a nuisance bug anyway.  The reference to the Raleigh desktop was because I was using Xfce.  I suggest: close it and wait to see if it is reopened.
Comment 12 Samuel Verschelde 2013-09-05 15:40:15 CEST
Closing then, thanks.
