today i had the same problem my notebook -> no files were created my girlfriends notebook -> everything worked fine
so i decided to check the differences and a few minutes ago i found the reason ***** I have also posted it in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Talk:Bootchart ***** if this error message is displayed: /var/log/bootchart.tgz not found and you have a SSD and optimized it in fstab like me tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0 tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 tmpfs /var/log tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0 tmpfs /var/cache/apt/archives tmpfs defaults 0 0 there is the problem that all in /var/log is deleted after reboot because it's in the RAM so all you have to do is just add this line tmpfs /var/log/bootchart tmpfs nodev,nosuid 0 0 so the folder is being created and the files are copied after a few seconds. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598096 Title: Bootchart does not generate a .tar.gz file -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
