jbaileyNice.  What does it do?03:27
zuladds module_version to some network drivers03:28

dilingergood evening05:30
lamontmorning fabbione 05:31
fabbionehey dilinger 05:47
fabbionemake_kpkg is shitting on me05:47
fabbionedpkg-gencontrol: error: package linux-xen0-2.6.10-5-386-xen0 not in control info05:47
fabbionewhy on earth does it change linux-image into linux-xen005:47
lamonthrm... so who should 8189 really be assigned to, rather than kernel-team, I wonder05:56
dilingeruh06:07
dilingeri have no idea, that's really odd06:07
dilinger'linux' is set via --stub, the image bit should be from kernel-package.. 06:08
dilingeryou built it w/ kernel_image?06:08
fabbionedilinger: i used the same way we build the kenrels in ubuntu06:09
dilingeri have no idea, i've never seen kernel-package do that06:10
dilingeri need to get to bed, job interview tomorrow at 8:30 :(06:10
fabbionedilinger: good night and good luck06:11
fabbionelamont: 8189 is mostlikely our06:11
dilingerthanks06:11
fabbioneusb-massstorage is teh sux06:11
lamontfabbione: yeah, but we assign them to debzilla or to an individual06:23
lamontrather than polluting kernel-team06:23
lamontkernel-bugs already gets them (qa contact is cc'ed...)06:24
lamont99% sure.. :0)06:24

unifiI am trying to figure out where my kernel is08:35
fabbione /boot08:36
unifiok thanks... then what is in /lib/modules?08:37
fabbionethe modules that the kernel or the user can load on demand08:38

zulhey02:59
zulbleah since when did ati do ide03:01
fabbionehi zul03:01
zulhey fabbione how is it going?03:02
fabbionenot too bad03:07
fabbionei committed some stuff in experimental you want to look at :)03:07
zullike what?03:07
fabbionexen?03:08
zulah...where again?03:08
fabbionesee /topic03:08
zulah sweet!03:09
zuli didnt see that just woke up ;)03:09
fabbioneit has been there for a few days now :)03:10
zulheh it shows you how observant i am03:11
zulwhats the difference between xen0 and xenu03:14
fabbionei still need to improve the descriptions and fix the header packages03:19
fabbionebut basically xen0 is the kernel the boots the machine03:19
fabbionexenu is the one that boots the virtual machines03:19
zulah ok03:20
fabbionei am still not sure if we are handling xen properly...03:26
fabbioneright now i consider it a special cased flavour of i38603:26
fabbionebut i think we will need to treat it as a separate arch03:27
fabbioneotherwise fixing the headers will be a royal mess03:27
zulgotcha03:28
fabbionezul: your updates to external drivers are bogus :)03:55
fabbionethat file matches what is in the kernel03:55
fabbionenot what is upstream03:55
zulah ok04:00
zulwell they should be in experimental then ;)04:00
fabbioneas soon as you update a driver, you update that file too04:03
fabbioneso you know what is in and what's not04:03
zulah got it04:03
=== fabbione sighs
fabbionebuild time for i386 is almost doubled04:25
zulhah hah04:30
=== lamont looks at 212226, wonders if the kernel has changed any since that bug was filed...
=== lamont thinks xen is a separate arch
lamontbut we don't have a buildd for Architecture: xen05:17
lamontso it probably has to build on i38605:17
fabbioneit can only build on i386 :)05:19
fabbioneatm05:19
fabbionelamont: i have been puzzled about adding xen as arch/i386/*-xen* flavours05:20
fabbioneor add arch/xen-i386/$flavours05:20
fabbioneboth cases have pro/cons at build time05:20
fabbioneright now i am just curious to get these test images out05:20
fabbionewe can always change the internal build at anytime05:21
lamontright - either way involves abusing things a little bit05:24
lamontactually, arch/i386/*-xen* (*.xen?) is probably the way to go, otherwise i386 needs to know how to build for 2 architectures, which is ugiler than having extra configs05:24
fabbionewell i was hoping in a xen-amd64 soon to be hounest05:25
fabbioneit alredy supportes x86_64 to certain degrees05:25
fabbionelamont: there are still hacks around tbh05:25
lamontright.  But either xen builds on 1 platform, or we have xen flavors of various platforms05:26
fabbionelike we need to build a special linux-headers package for Arch: "xen-i386"05:26
lamontah05:26
fabbioneeitherway it needs to be built :)05:26
fabbionewell i mean that the standard headers are not ok for xen05:26
fabbionesince include/asm-xen is missing in the standard ones05:26
lamontso it sounds almost like there's a xen-i386 architecture, and i386 knows to build both i386 and xen-i38605:26
fabbioneexactly05:27
fabbioneif you want to look at it from a pure theoretical point of view05:27
fabbionethan the Arch is xen-i38605:27
fabbioneor even better: Arch: xen built on i38605:27
fabbionebut clearly we can handle as we want internally05:28
fabbionewe are not introducing a brand new source, just a patch on top of what already exists05:28
fabbioneit's almost like we do for hppa05:28
lamontcoolness05:31
=== lamont wonders when t-bone was coming back
lamontend of week?05:31
fabbionei can't remember05:32

fabbionefirst full build of XEN packages08:44
fabbioneapprox 4 hours08:44
zuloi...thats alot08:44
fabbioneon i386 + distcc + ccache and -j 1508:44
fabbionewell probably ccache got outdated08:45
fabbioneor something08:45
zulfabbione: motu team has been asking me about the kernels in universe since they are not installable anymore should be tell tem to sync with debian for only arches we support?09:01
fabbionezul: they should be able to decide themself. either solutions work for me09:03
fabbioneand the xen kernels are not compiled properly09:03
zulokie dokie09:03
fabbionedamn make_kpkg09:03
zulhehe09:03
fabbionethey build, but they can't boot09:03
fabbionefile xen-linux-2.6.10-5-686-xen0 09:04

fabbionetsk09:04
zulhehe09:04
zulill tell them to sync 386,686,686-smp,k7,k8 any others?09:06
fabbionepowerpc? ia64? sparc?09:06
zuloh yes...09:06
zulnot on my radar ;)09:06
fabbionelamont: do you care about hppa?09:07
lamontfabbione: sure09:11
lamontor do you mean something specific?09:12
fabbionelamont: sync from debian -> universe09:12
lamontsyncing what?09:12
lamont2.6.11?09:13
zul2.6.809:14
lamont2.6.8 is ancient for hppa, unless kyle has been busy...09:18
kylemi've not uploaded anything recently.09:21
zulfabbione: sync debian's 2.4 stuff as well...i wouldnt think so because of initrd-tools and the like10:08
zulbecause if i can recall jbailey said they havent been tested10:09
fabbionewhatever :)10:09
jbaileyzul: I'm guessing by now I would've heard some bitching if initrd-tools in Ubuntu was b0rked on 2.410:10
zulok thats cool..10:10
lamontthe debian 2.6.8 kernel for hppa is the one with the "expect bug"10:13
lamontso probably not a good idea to sync that one10:14
