jon1012 | lol yes, but I will try to put my system at 2.9.1 instead lol | 12:01 |
---|---|---|
seb128 | good luck | 12:01 |
seb128 | you need to change gnomevfs, nautilus, panel, nautilus-cd-burner at this point | 12:01 |
jon1012 | yup | 12:01 |
seb128 | and you'll not but able to install new GNOME packages after that | 12:01 |
jon1012 | lol yes, but can I do the menu myself another way? | 12:02 |
seb128 | you should better wait for the new panel changes | 12:02 |
jon1012 | yup | 12:02 |
jon1012 | when will this be you think ? | 12:02 |
seb128 | live with the stock menus like everybody else in hoary ? | 12:02 |
seb128 | probably before the end of the month | 12:02 |
jon1012 | ok :) | 12:02 |
seb128 | dunno when exactly | 12:02 |
seb128 | BTW time to sleep | 12:03 |
seb128 | later | 12:03 |
jon1012 | the thing is that I need the development branch for a lot of libs in my developments | 12:03 |

chrisa | I need to find a wlan usb adapter that doesn't use wlan ng (ie: no ma111 or dwl-122) | 12:08 |
chrisa | So tired of that driver | 12:08 |
mxpxpod | chrisa: yeah, same here | 12:08 |
mjg59 | chrisa: Currently, that's awkward | 12:09 |
mjg59 | The CVS orinoco driver has support for some USB devices, but I think that's abou tit | 12:09 |
mxpxpod | chrisa: I think there's one in dongle form that uses prism54 that I've thought about getting | 12:09 |
chrisa | wlan ng wouldn't be so bad if the normal wireless tools worked with it | 12:10 |
mxpxpod | hmm, it unmounted my /home dir as well | 12:10 |
mxpxpod | but if I mount /proc and /home, everything is fine (I think) | 12:10 |
chrisa | What makes you think the driver did this? | 12:10 |
mxpxpod | chrisa: it's the only thing that does that when I unplug it | 12:11 |
chrisa | and of course you're watching syslog and messages, rrrrrriiiggght? | 12:11 |
mjg59 | chrisa: We're seeing this with various wireless drivers | 12:12 |
mjg59 | It's very odd | 12:13 |
chrisa | oh? Neat | 12:13 |
jon1012 | yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh MY HACK OF THE GNOME-PANEL WORKS :D | 12:14 |
jon1012 | oops excuse me :$ | 12:14 |
jon1012 | lol | 12:14 |
mxpxpod | mjg59: hmm, it only happens the first time I insert it | 12:15 |
mxpxpod | after I remount everything, it doesn't seem to do it anymoer | 12:15 |

TD | hi, are there any forum admins here? i don't mean to interrupt but i was browsing them, and i noticed that one of the moderators (!) is consistently posting links to pirate packages of commercial linux software | 12:31 |
TD | i was wondering who i should speak to about that | 12:31 |
mjg59 | TD: Is that ubuntuforums.org? | 12:32 |
TD | yeah. not official? | 12:32 |
mjg59 | Nope | 12:32 |
mjg59 | Good thing to LART, though | 12:32 |

TD | s/forum/site/ | 12:32 |
mjg59 | They gateway the mailing lists | 12:32 |
jon1012 | (what software did this administrator post links for ? :/) | 12:33 |

jon1012 | bad, because if people want crossover, they can help and become advocate... :/ | 12:34 |
jon1012 | if they want it without paying i mean :) | 12:34 |
TD | yeah. we practically give it away these days | 12:34 |
jon1012 | yup | 12:34 |
jon1012 | I'm an advocate | 12:34 |
jon1012 | (a proud advocate in fact :p) | 12:34 |
TD | it's 99.something% LGPL anyway. so it's kind of annoying to see people recommending that newbies warez it. | 12:34 |
jon1012 | sure... | 12:34 |
TD | cool, what app? | 12:34 |
jon1012 | Photoshop 7 mainly :) | 12:35 |
jon1012 | I'm in a multimedia school, in graphic communication | 12:35 |
jon1012 | crossover is really great :) | 12:35 |
TD | thanks | 12:35 |
jon1012 | really bad that people want to go to pirate sites for it :( | 12:36 |
TD | it happens. some of them even try and get tech support. | 12:36 |
TD | using linux doesn't magically change (some) human nature, unfortunately | 12:36 |

jon1012 | yes :( | 12:36 |
lamont_r | sucky connectivity. :-( | 12:36 |

Kamion | mxpxpod: lamont has been tracking down the unmounting problem and knows roughly where it is now; it's apparently in one of the udev scripts | 12:39 |
TD | thanks :) | 12:39 |
lamont_r | Kamion: or at least apparently so. | 12:39 |
mxpxpod | Kamion: oh really... so udev is being a brat | 12:39 |
Kamion | mxpxpod: /etc/dev.d/default/ somewhere | 12:39 |
lamont_r | that is, fixing the script to not generate an error from umount (and therefore exit with an error, appears to make the problem go away | 12:40 |
lamont_r | /etc/dev.d/default/unmount.dev or so. | 12:41 |
lamont_r | wrap the whole thing in if [ -n "$DEVICE"] ; then ... fi | 12:41 |
lamont_r | or whatever the name is... | 12:41 |
=== TD [~mike@foghorn.codeweavers.com] has left #ubuntu-devel ["ERC] | ||
mxpxpod | lamont_r: that works for me | 12:44 |
mxpxpod | just modified it and unplugged then re-plugged my usb device and it doesn't unmount everything | 12:44 |
lamont_r | woot | 12:44 |
mxpxpod | and it's $DEVNAME | 12:44 |
mxpxpod | lamont_r: have you figured out the problem with udev unmounting /dev before unmounting the drives yet? | 12:45 |
lamont_r | now, for extra credit, add an else clause that says 'exit 1' | 12:45 |
lamont_r | and see if it once again trashes everything... | 12:45 |
lamont_r | that's fixed in 2.12j | 12:45 |
lamont_r | although you want -2, not -1 if you use cryptoloop devices | 12:45 |
mxpxpod | 2.12j? | 12:46 |
lamont_r | 2.12j-2 | 12:46 |
mxpxpod | of what? | 12:46 |
lamont_r | fixed upstream - mount_2.12j-2_${arch}.deb | 12:46 |
lamont_r | er, for hoary that's mount_2.12j-2ubuntu1_${arch}.deb | 12:47 |
mxpxpod | lamont_r: ah, gotcha | 12:47 |
sid77 | bye all | 12:47 |
lamont_r | I don't remember if that fix made todays dinstall run in debian or not, but -2ubuntu1 is certainly in hoary | 12:47 |
mxpxpod | lamont_r: adding that else doesn't trash everything | 12:49 |
lamont_r | very interesting | 12:50 |
mxpxpod | lamont_r: wait... where did you want that else? | 12:51 |
lamont_r | Kamion: you need things much beyond 1AM (9 minutes from now...)? | 12:51 |
lamont_r | actually, you'll still have connectivity, it'll just get more sucky. | 12:51 |
lamont_r | mxpxpod: when $DEVNAME=="" | 12:53 |
lamont_r | that is, as an else clause for the if that you just added... | 12:53 |
Kamion | lamont_r: pretty sucks already ... ;) | 12:53 |

mjg59 | Woo | 11:22 |
fabbione | mjg59: CONFIG_SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is the one we need for swsup-userspace, right? | 11:22 |
mjg59 | Yup | 11:22 |
fabbione | it's in for i386/amd64 | 11:22 |
fabbione | :-))) | 11:22 |
mjg59 | And there's an option for the DSDT in initrd stuff, too | 11:22 |

mjg59 | ibm-acpi is needed for 2.6.9, but not for 2.6.10 | 11:30 |
fabbione | Default resume partition (PM_STD_PARTITION) [] (NEW) | 11:30 |
fabbione | mjg59: ? | 11:30 |
mjg59 | fabbione: Null | 11:30 |
fabbione | ok | 11:30 |
thom | mjg59: we took a quick strawpoll, and 90% of the room wanted it | 11:30 |
thom | if it's really bad, we can back off again | 11:30 |
mjg59 | thom: It /is/ going to break on various machines, and people are unlikely to be happy if their machine breaks every time they close it | 11:31 |
mjg59 | 2.6.10 only enables lapic if the BIOS enabled it. I'm not sure if that's in 2.6.9. It's a safe default, anyway. | 11:31 |
mjg59 | (as I said before, I'm not keen on shipping dsdts. It's /difficult/ to get right, and we plainly have no legal right to do so) | 11:32 |
tuo2 | is drinking red wine chilled a bad idea? | 11:33 |
fabbione | mjg59: isn't that the patch you gave to me yesterday? | 11:33 |
thom | tuo2: yes. | 11:33 |
mjg59 | fabbione: the lapic one? Nope. That disables it on power-off if the user forced it on. | 11:33 |
tuo2 | thom: any reasoning?" | 11:33 |
calc | most dsdt's don't really have anything unique in them, except for the chipset port locations, etc | 11:34 |
calc | at least on the ones i have disassembled in the past | 11:34 |
thom | mjg59: right. i think we got a bit handwavy when it came to DSDTs | 11:34 |
thom | tuo2: it makes red wine taste fucking disgusting | 11:34 |
tuo2 | thom: depends on the initial quality of the wine, mate. | 11:35 |
mjg59 | thom: Every time the user changes the amount of RAM, they need a new DSDT. Every time they upgrade their BIOS, they potentially need a new DSDT. | 11:35 |
tuo2 | And this wasn't real good.... | 11:35 |
thom | mjg59: yah | 11:35 |
tuo2 | might be better off killing the palette | 11:36 |
calc | you could take all the data that has to be there and plug it into skeleton dsdt so that the code doesn't infringe copyright i suppose | 11:36 |
thom | tuo2: this is well off topic | 11:36 |
tuo2 | thom: true. Sorry. | 11:36 |
thom | mjg59: like i said, handwavy | 11:36 |
calc | the dsdt is generated dynamically by the bios? | 11:36 |
calc | i didn't notice that part when reading the acpi spec, eyes must have glassed over | 11:37 |
mjg59 | calc: It tends to be. The spec doesn't require it. | 11:37 |
calc | oh ok | 11:37 |
Treenaks | usplash with "wait & switch" is very nice, except for https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1842 :) | 11:37 |
daniels | Treenaks: that's not a problem, because it was never switched | 11:40 |
daniels | so you never had access to the card | 11:40 |

=== hazmat [~hazmat@c-24-15-10-12.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
robtaylor | yeah, i suppose the only 2 sane opttions are either a) make dsdt interpreter more robust or b) store a diff for each bios version of each machine (and hope diffs help us avoid the ram issue.. ) :/ | 11:45 |
robtaylor | a bunch of diffs would help in either case ;) | 11:46 |
calc | i think it got somewhat more robust after ~ 2.6.6 | 11:46 |
mjg59 | It did | 11:46 |
robtaylor | calc: still doesnt work on my laptop ;) | 11:46 |
mjg59 | But there's a reasonable argument for making it bug-for-bug compatible with Windows | 11:46 |
calc | my laptop was completely broken in numerous ways and i filed a bunch of bug reports about it at osdl and len fixed them for me :) | 11:46 |
calc | eg now the acpi ports are reserved by default | 11:47 |
calc | instead of getting reused for various things like cardbus | 11:47 |
calc | mjg59: yep | 11:47 |
mjg59 | But upstream won't do that | 11:47 |
calc | upstream is slowly doing it ;) | 11:48 |
calc | as each new device which is broken has bug reports filed about it | 11:48 |
mjg59 | calc: No, they won't make it fully bug-compatible with the Windows stack | 11:48 |
calc | so they are refusing to fix bugs that are shown in particular hardware now? | 11:49 |
robtaylor | mjg59: well nothing to stop us making a 2.6.x-acpi bitkeeper branch.... | 11:49 |
mjg59 | calc: No, that's fine | 11:50 |
calc | ok | 11:50 |
calc | well being bug for bug compatible isn't really needed as long as all laptops work under linux ;) | 11:50 |
mjg59 | But they won't alter the interpreter so it behaves brokenly | 11:50 |
mjg59 | And that's the only way to be compatible with Windows | 11:50 |
calc | eventually linux will be bug for bug compatible to be able to attain that goal | 11:50 |
=== calc doesn't get it, oh well ;) | ||
elmo | mmph, alt-tab is broken for me | 11:51 |
seb128 | broken in which way ? | 11:52 |
=== calc bbl, gone to bed | ||
robtaylor | calc: if you submit a bug. 1st thing you're told is to find a 'fixed' dsdt// | 11:53 |

seb128 | weird | 11:54 |
robtaylor | ooh, broken X11 package flashback =) | 11:54 |
seb128 | the alt-tab seems to send the right event in xv ? | 11:54 |
seb128 | xev even | 11:54 |
calc | robtaylor: hmm they never mentioned that to me, linus even emailed me wrt the io port issue ;) | 11:55 |
mjg59 | calc: But that was actually an acpi bug | 11:55 |
calc | yea, previously they solved the io port issue via quirks for every chipset (gag) | 11:56 |
mjg59 | Whereas on lots of machines the dsdt isn't anywhere near spec-compliant | 11:56 |
calc | but my dsdt also was broken in various interesting ways which they worked around | 11:56 |
elmo | seb128: err, not sure xev seems a bit whack too.. i'll upgrade, then login/logut, and if I can reproduce, come and show you | 11:56 |
seb128 | ok | 11:56 |
calc | i don't remember the exact details since it was about 6mo ago | 11:56 |
mjg59 | calc: There's a limit to the dsdt workarounds you can do that are guaranteed to be safe | 11:57 |
calc | their were weird irq issues though | 11:57 |
calc | er there | 11:57 |
mjg59 | The Windows interpreter allows accesses that are invalid, presumably hoping that the dsdt never actually does something bad with them | 11:57 |
calc | iirc the irq query returned invalid data or something like that | 11:57 |
mjg59 | Linux forbids that | 11:57 |
calc | ah | 11:57 |

thom | mdz wants better crack | 02:55 |
mjg59 | jdub: But make sure you have latest initrd-tools and 2.6.9-3 | 02:55 |
Keybuk | fabbione: ah, that's what you're laughing so hard about | 02:55 |
Treenaks | mjg59: we should patch the shell to accept those quotes! | 02:55 |
daniels | crack me harder | 02:55 |
fabbione | thom: ? | 02:55 |
jdub | mjg59: at the very end? | 02:55 |
=== thom throws his orange of destiny at Keybuk | ||
Mithrandir | mjg59: why use quotes at all? | 02:55 |
mjg59 | jdub: Yeah | 02:55 |
jdub | ok | 02:55 |
mjg59 | Mithrandir: Because I'm cutting and pasting off a website | 02:55 |
jdub | 2.6.9-3 doesn't seem to be in the archive yet | 02:55 |
mjg59 | jdub: Haha | 02:56 |
mjg59 | Wait for it to hit, then | 02:56 |
=== Keybuk is glad he's not the only one who thought the oranges were excessive | ||
fabbione | jdub: it will take 2/3 hours to be in the archive | 02:56 |
mjg59 | Oh, and put your DSDT in /boot/DSDT.aml | 02:56 |
fabbione | jdub: probably less if ccache will hit harder | 02:56 |
mjg59 | Hmm. Where should we ask users to put fixed DSDTs? | 02:56 |
fabbione | thom: what kind of crack does mdz wants? | 02:56 |
fabbione | want even | 02:56 |
mjg59 | /boot doesn't seem great | 02:56 |
thom | fabbione: block optimisation and reading | 02:57 |
thom | ie, get the kernel to tell us what pages/blocks its reading from during boot, and then reuse that | 02:57 |
fabbione | thom: ok.. you need andrew morton for stuff like that | 02:57 |
Mithrandir | I've been thinking about doing a crack-optimization for ext3.. like what MOSX is doing. | 02:58 |

thom | dude, it may be crack, but it shaved 12 seconds off the boot | 04:34 |
seb128 | thom, what did you do ? | 04:35 |

pitti | seb128: S99sysklogd :-) | 04:35 |
fabbione | thom: i am seriously against it | 04:35 |
seb128 | oh, ok :) | 04:35 |
pitti | thom: but wouldn't that somewhat nullify the point of syslog? | 04:35 |
smurfix_ | thom: Owch. | 04:35 |
thom | well, yes | 04:35 |
thom | i was just interested, i'm not planning on suggesting that we *do* it | 04:36 |
pitti | thom: don't start gdm, it will further improve boot speed | 04:36 |
thom | pitti: yeah, X sucks so hard | 04:36 |
fabbione | thom: thanks :-) | 04:36 |
pitti | thom: however, interesting that it gains _that_ much | 04:36 |
smurfix_ | thom: So your next job is to figure out _why_ it slows down boot that much. ;-) | 04:36 |
thom | pitti: indeed | 04:36 |
smurfix_ | My first guess would be excessive syncing | 04:37 |
thom | especially since most all the logs i have are async | 04:37 |

jdub | rburton: what do you think about swapping the checkboxes with install/remove buttons? | 05:17 |
jdub | rburton: this was suggested at the bof - i'm not convinced. | 05:18 |
rburton | jdub: my argument against instant apply is what if the user installs OO.o? | 05:18 |
rburton | they'll have to wait ageeees until they can also select another application, if they want to install two | 05:18 |
jdub | it was not so much instant apply as "press the install button per package" | 05:18 |
jdub | which results in an immediate install | 05:18 |

daniels | fabbione: i'm settling for timestamping on the logs atm | 05:31 |
fabbione | daniels: what part of the code do you expect to optimize? | 05:32 |
fabbione | daniels: if you are luck you can manage to kill some startup sanity checks | 05:32 |
jdub | mjg59: hmm | 05:33 |
fabbione | once you know the previous startup was safe and no changes to the config have been done | 05:33 |
jdub | mjg59: smoother than normal suspend/resume | 05:33 |
jamesh | the wallpaper also looks shit at 2560*1024 | 05:33 |

mjg59 | jdub: What you do it from a text console? | 05:33 |
jdub | what if or did i? | 05:33 |
jamesh | the fix is probably to get Nautilus or Eel to repeat the wallpaper for xinerama-style multiscreen | 05:34 |

fabbione | Kamion: can you tell me an exact package name that is missing | 05:58 |
fabbione | ? | 05:58 |
Kamion | missing module drivers/net/mv64340_eth.o | 05:58 |
Kamion | that's in the build log; it might well be giving up there | 05:59 |
Kamion | it's not packages that are missing, just some modules from nic-modules | 05:59 |
fabbione | ah ok | 05:59 |
fabbione | HMM | 05:59 |
Kamion | did that driver get renamed? | 05:59 |
fabbione | i understood that there were missing udebs from the lists | 05:59 |
fabbione | Kamion | 05:59 |
fabbione | not that i am aware of | 05:59 |
mjg59 | That driver got renamed, I think | 05:59 |

mjg59 | It's 643xx | 06:00 |
mjg59 | (now) | 06:00 |

Kamion | fabbione: hang on a sec | 06:03 |
fabbione | Kamion: sure... take all the time you need | 06:04 |
fabbione | i am trying to figure out an easy path to package the kernel without too much crack | 06:04 |
Kamion | they seem to have disappeared in either 2.6.8.1-18 and 2.6.8.1-19 | 06:04 |
Kamion | in fact mv64340_eth disappeared from the .deb at that time, for no reason that's explained in the changelog | 06:04 |
fabbione | Kamion: i am really sure i didn't change anything in terms of compilation | 06:05 |
fabbione | other than adding the udeb generation from linux-source | 06:05 |
fabbione | and adding sparc | 06:05 |
fabbione | but no config updates or anything took place in 2.6.8.21 | 06:05 |
fabbione | hem | 06:06 |
fabbione | .1 | 06:06 |
Kamion | -18_powerpc.deb seems to be missing from the morgue though | 06:08 |
fabbione | -18 never had the time to compile | 06:08 |

mdz | elmo: have you grepped for data.tar.gz in katie? | 06:11 |
mdz | elmo: the python API is such that if you want data.tar.gz, you ask for it by name | 06:11 |
mdz | elmo: I've fixed the bit where it will abort if it isn't present, and fixed apt-ftparchive contents | 06:11 |
mdz | elmo: anything else would be a problem external to apt | 06:11 |
elmo | mdz: yeah, I know it does dude, but there was a bit of python-apt that needed fixed :P | 06:12 |
mdz | elmo: which bit? | 06:13 |
mdz | the only problem I found which I thought would affect katie was the check which bombed out if data.tar.gz was missing, in libapt-inst | 06:14 |
mdz | python-apt doesn't reference data.tar.gz | 06:14 |
elmo | Rejected: diveintopython_5.4-1ubuntu1_all.deb: deb contents timestamp check failed [exceptions.SystemError: This is not a valid | 06:14 |
elmo | DEB archive, missing 'data.tar.gz' member] | 06:14 |
elmo | that bit in [] doesn't come from katie ... | 06:15 |
mdz | yep, that's the bit I fixed | 06:15 |
elmo | well okay, after the : ;P | 06:15 |
elmo | ok | 06:15 |
mdz | so if that's the only error you encountered, we're in good shape | 06:15 |
mdz | katie doesn't actually do anything with data.tar.(gz|bz2), right? | 06:15 |
elmo | "do" how? it does checks on it | 06:15 |
elmo | actually, it's just the timestamps check that matters immediately | 06:16 |
elmo | I'll have to fix the NEW checking stuff too, but that's less critical | 06:16 |
mdz | ah, ok | 06:20 |
Kamion | fabbione: right, looks like it's just mv64340_eth; if you restore the CONFIG_MV64340_ETH* config entries from 2.6.8.1-19, s/MV64340/MV643XX/g on that, and s/mv64340/mv643xx/g on debian/d-i/powerpc/modules/powerpc/nic-modules, that should do it | 06:24 |

fabbione | Kamion: yes, we already discuss it a few days back. | 06:36 |
Kamion | it's not built at all; you need to change the config | 06:36 |

fabbione | mjg59: i will rather rediff it than ask him for a new patch | 07:32 |
mjg59 | Haha | 07:33 |
mjg59 | But isn't it in the stock kernel now? | 07:33 |
mjg59 | As mv643xx rather than mv64340 | 07:33 |
fabbione | no the pegasos part | 07:33 |
mjg59 | There's only something like 1000 Pegasoses in the wild, and most of those are with developers, so I wouldn't worry about it too much | 07:34 |
fabbione | mjg59: well.. Kamion has been asking for it :-) | 07:37 |
fabbione | in anycase the thingy is partially merged | 07:38 |
fabbione | the rejects are trivial to merge | 07:38 |
fabbione | there were 2/3 lines that were *scary* | 07:38 |
Kamion | fabbione: no I haven't? | 07:38 |
fabbione | but nothing impossible to do | 07:38 |
mdz | fabbione: you have a fix for the usb-storage bug? | 07:38 |
fabbione | Kamion: for the mv643xx ? | 07:38 |
Kamion | I want mv64340_eth to build so that it and everything after it alphabetically end up in the nic-modules udeb | 07:38 |
Kamion | sorry, mv643xx_eth | 07:38 |
fabbione | Kamion: we are talking about the same driver | 07:38 |
Kamion | I don't especially care whether or not it works :) | 07:38 |
Kamion | yes, I know | 07:38 |
Kamion | 18:37 < fabbione> mjg59: well.. Kamion has been asking for it :-) | 07:38 |
fabbione | Kamion: it doesn't build on ppc if the code is not merged : | 07:39 |
fabbione | :-) | 07:39 |
Kamion | ah, I see | 07:39 |
fabbione | + #ifdef __PPC__ | 07:39 |
fabbione | + dev->irq = 9; | 07:39 |
fabbione | + #else | 07:39 |
fabbione | dev->irq = ETH_PORT0_IRQ_NUM + port_num; | 07:39 |
fabbione | + #endif | 07:39 |
fabbione | 07:39 | |
fabbione | stuff like this :-) | 07:39 |
fabbione | mdz: i did change the config on your request. the ohter bug is in the scsi layer | 07:39 |
fabbione | mdz: if you can check bugzilla on kernel.org for a patch would help kthxbye :-) | 07:40 |
mdz | fabbione: we cannot use 2.6.9 as default until that bug is fixed. it is a serious regression from 2.6.8.1 | 07:40 |
mdz | it is not clear whether the bug is in scsi or usb | 07:41 |
mdz | I am on the CC list for the kernel.org bug; there has been no activity that I saw | 07:41 |
Kamion | at the moment we are using 2.6.9 in the installer and 2.6.8.1 in the installed system, which is crack | 07:41 |
Kamion | it will result in hotplug desync | 07:41 |
mdz | but I have no idea whether the people who work on those subsystems actually look at bugzilla at all | 07:41 |
Kamion | if we are going to use 2.6.9 in hoary I'd rather that we defaulted to it now | 07:42 |
mdz | it makes me unable to do necessary development tasks | 07:42 |
fabbione | mdz: we did disable the usb_blk_ub thingy already | 07:42 |
Kamion | I thought Fabio had turned off the worst of it | 07:43 |
mdz | fabbione: yes, I know | 07:43 |
fabbione | mdz: and there are 2 bugs on bugzilla.k.o about the same stuff | 07:43 |
mdz | that is one out of two show-stopper bugs | 07:43 |
fabbione | one of the says that it is in the scsi layer | 07:43 |
fabbione | and that has been fixed | 07:43 |
fabbione | in some 2.6.10-crack version | 07:43 |
mdz | the comment that says it is in the scsi layer is from someone who has no idea what they are talking about | 07:43 |
mdz | oh, good | 07:43 |
mdz | so we can pull the patch and be done with it | 07:43 |

moquist | hi sid77 | 10:15 |
daniels | mjg59: the posting stuff dies? | 10:41 |
daniels | bronson_: 6.8.2, yes, and I've already taken most of it back | 10:41 |
daniels | bronson_: but really, nothing interesting is otherwise happening in cvs, other than a pending reorganisation | 10:41 |
mjg59 | daniels: No, VBE save/restore | 10:41 |
mjg59 | POST+vbe state restore+X might be enough | 10:42 |
daniels | which won't be interesting from a user point of view | 10:42 |
mjg59 | Mm? | 10:42 |
mjg59 | If the user ever runs this stuff, they deserve what they get :) | 10:42 |
mjg59 | Actually, it should check that it's running on a console and exit otherwise | 10:42 |
mjg59 | So we switch away from X, save state, suspend, POST, restore state, switch back to X | 10:43 |
mjg59 | Which ought to let you drop VBERestore from X | 10:43 |
