=== fabbione switches to centralized ccache
lamont-awayfabbione: centralized within one machine, or over gfs?06:59
fabbionelamont: hey06:59
fabbioneover nfs06:59
fabbionei don't have gfs running yet on sparc06:59
fabbioneit's just pure nfs07:00
fabbioneit seems to cache properly, you can set the parameters07:00
fabbionebut you cannot see the hits/missed info07:00
fabbionethat hounestly i can't care less07:00
fabbionehow do you feel btw?07:01
fabbione(that is kinda more important07:01
fabbionejbailey: i had to flush the ccache, sorry... but now it's much bigger and it will partially solve some of the disk space issues07:07
fabbioneand this is good... so a test build you do, gets cached and made available to the buildd chroot07:08
fabbioner/wind goto 407:20
=== lamont prepares to sleep
fabbionelamont: good night :)07:36
fabbioneare feeling better?07:36

=== lamont needs to upload postfix to debian sometime soon
lamontsigh07:37
lamontanyway, night07:37
fabbionenight :)07:45
fabbionezul: the idea of the patch is correct, but the patch is not enough. it will create a driver conflicts for other cards07:59

svenljbailey: pong ?02:24
svenljbailey: sorry, was on the plane, am in Austin, Texas now, anything in particular ? 02:24

jbaileyWait a sec.  You went to Texas on purpose? =)02:26
jbaileyfabbione: CONFIG_PCI_NAMES is just the PCI ID to name mapping, right?  We don't use the names in hotplug, but I want to make sure that's all it is. =)02:28
jbaileysvenl: I'm blanking on it.  It might have been about a new grub snapshot I posted over the weekend to people.ubuntu.com/~jbailey/grub2. 02:30

=== Seveas [~seveas@dyn127.roaming.few.vu.nl] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
fabbionezul: partially ok...03:00
fabbioneit is not an external driver :)03:00
fabbionethe changelog sucked as usual :)03:00
zulmeh..03:00
fabbionewell check the new patch ;)03:01
zuli did..03:01
fabbionebut it was partially ok03:01
fabbionethe removal of #define PCIDI 0x29382903:01
fabbionewas wrong03:01
fabbionebecause the include is indirectly sourced03:01
fabbioneso basically you were losing the definitions of some IDs03:01
fabbioneanyway not a big deal03:01
zulah ok...well am still learning03:02
zulso the mergaraid.ko becomes megaraidlegacy.ko?03:02
fabbionehmm o03:04
fabbioneno03:04
fabbionethere is no need of a rename03:04
fabbioneis it?03:04
zulah ok..i was just wondering about this line:03:04
zul-       .name           = "megaraid",03:04
zul+       .name           = "megaraidlegacy",03:04
fabbioneobj-$(CONFIG_MEGARAID_LEGACY)   += megaraid.o03:04
fabbioneobj-$(CONFIG_MEGARAID_NEWGEN)   += megaraid/03:04
fabbionenah that's only an internal name03:04
zulok03:04
fabbionefor the kernel03:04
fabbionethe real driver name doesn't change03:05
fabbioneit would break if i did a random rename03:05
zulso how is it going?03:06
fabbionewe only have a unionfs problem on ppc03:06
fabbioneit manages to kill gcc-3.*03:07
zulheh03:07
fabbionethe rest is ok03:07
fabbionewe need to work on checking the new drivers (before inclusion)03:07
zult-bone hasnt looked at it yet?03:07
fabbioneand check all the d-i overall03:07
fabbionet-bone?03:07
zuli can start the new drivers03:07
zulthe unionfs stuff03:07
fabbionei doubt tbone can fix gcc :)03:08
zulbut but he is a god :)03:08
jbaileyfabbione: Are you sure the code is valid C?03:08
jbaileyI didn't take a look yesterday.03:08
fabbionejbailey: well i am pretty sure it is.. it compiles on 5 arches :)03:08
fabbionewith the same gcc version03:08
zuli blame ppc03:08
fabbioneme too03:08
fabbione+ gtk03:08
jbaileyThere's no #ifdef __arch_ppc__ frobnicate() #endif ? =)03:09
zulfor some of the gcc4 stuff i was looking at it baycom_epp doesnt build at all03:09
fabbionejbailey: houneslty i didn't dig too much03:09
fabbionejbailey: it's on davis ~fabbione/linux-source-<TAB>/fs/unionfs/file.c03:09
fabbioneor concordia or halley...03:10
jbaileyI'm tracing ldd at the moment.03:10
fabbioneor in baz at the above url :)03:10
fabbioneyeah don't worry03:10
jbaileyAnd thinking about what it will be like to meet Xu.03:10
fabbionei temporary disabled unionfs on ppc03:10
fabbioneit's not mission critical yet03:10
fabbioneit's more important to get mkinitrd and kernel-package fixes in the archive03:11
fabbionejbailey: i have been wondering about that too :)03:11
jbaileyAh, youv'e never met him either?03:11
jbaileyI thought he used to work for Canonical.03:11
fabbioneright03:11
fabbionehe is a part-time contractor03:12
jbaileyAh, does he still do stuff?03:13
svenljbailey: ah, well.03:13
fabbionejbailey: not right now...03:13
svenljbailey: BTW, i was thinking about mkinitrd and crypted filesystems for laptop last night.03:14
jbaileysvenl: I'd to hear your thoughts.  I've been wondering whether it's worth trying to autodetect the encryption, which might be hard if it's an encrypted filesystem on an lvm using evms on a raid drive or something crazy.03:15
jbaileysvenl: I'd been thinking that perhaps it would be nice to do something like optionally have a config where for each device you could just drop a file in place that would have  the information on what to do special to find it, or something like that.03:16
jbaileyThat way if it's a really wild config, it could always be custom.03:16
fabbionei am off for a nap03:17
fabbionelater guys03:17
jbaileygood sleeps, Fabio.03:17
fabbionethanks03:17
svenljbailey: ok; let's speak about it at a later time. needto go to offline work now.03:19
jbaileysvenl: Cool, thanks.03:19
svenljbailey: BTW, have you tried hoary on your pegasos yet ? The install stuff i mean ? 03:20
jbaileysvenl: Nope.  Last I heard yaboot didn't boot a CD on pegasos.03:20
jbaileysvenl: I'm running current breezy on it right now from upgrading, though03:21
zulhmmm...invalid lvalue assignment03:26

jbaileyThere's a certain point when I wonder if it's just worth writing a 25 line C program to include in glibc to get this output a little nicer that doing this.04:15
zulhehe04:15
jbaileyAnyone here got an amd64 handy?04:21
jbailey(running breezy)04:21
lamontmorning04:36
zulhey lamont how are you feeling?04:38
lamontpretty much better..04:41
lamontI should probably go grab some more sleep today though... I'm thinking long lunch04:42
zulthats good04:48
jbaileylamont: Hey - did you see my note the other day that I got patches from Carlos for building glibc on hppa?04:59
jbaileylamont: I just need to backport them to the 2.3 branch.04:59
lamontjbailey: coolenss05:00
lamonteta??? :)05:00
jbaileylamont: Post UDU, I'm guessing.05:00
lamontjbailey: I guess we'll live05:00
jbaileyI have a chroot on bdale's machine, I just don't hjave time in the evenings to hack on it right now with prepping to leave in a couple days.05:00
lamontright05:00
jbailey( I still have to do my damned taxes ) *g*05:00
lamontew.  weren't those like due?05:01
jbaileyApril 30th.05:01
lamontah, plenty of time then. :-)05:01
jbaileyAlthough, since these are from 2003, sort of.05:01
jbaileyBut they sent me a notice asking me to file them. =)05:01
lamontmine were absolutely clusterful05:01
lamontthis year I learned a whole lot more than I ever wanted to know about accelerated depreciation.  Then again, I wish I'd bothered to actually read that 5-10 pages or so a few years ago...05:04
jbaileyYeah, I'm definetly going to need a real bean counter next year.05:04
lamontI had a real bean counter e-file for me.. he found me a chunk more money.05:04
lamontturns out that the section 179 deduction is not limited by business profits in the case where all of your investement is at risk...05:05
jbaileyI was talking to one, but his office is slow in returning phone calss.05:05
jbaileySo before I had two weeks, and now I have 2 days.05:05
jbaileySo off to H&R block I go.05:05
lamontew05:05
=== lamont found a local competitor of H&R - they didn't want mine, since I had depreciation that I had calculated myself.
lamontthat's not 100% true - H&R said they'd call me back, but hasn't yet...05:06
=== lamont does a test build of today's 2.6.12 + hppa -pa3, just to give the A500 something to do while he's hacking on bugs

jbaileyMmmmm..  big fat patches.05:24
lamontjbailey: will probably wind up being me for breezy - discussions to happen at UDU05:35
jbaileylamont: I can cheerfully split that with you.05:36
