zulso how is sydney treating you?02:21
jbaileyRemarkably good.02:35
jbaileySo far I've managed to keep the hotel from poisoning me.02:36
jbaileyAnd I think they've stopped trying to kill kinnison02:36

kylemheh.02:41
dilingerthat's what they want us to think02:42
dilingerthey're lulling us into a false sense of security02:42
kylemjbailey, how were they poisoning you?02:42
jbaileykylem: First teaching them that the "little bit of butter" in the vegetables counts (only had to tell them that once, and it was only one waiter in particular), and pointing out to them that protein is a good thing to have occasionally.02:43
kylemheh.02:43
dilingeri'm finding weird little objects on the glasses and plates i use02:44
dilingeri suspect they're food bits, but i'm not 100% sure02:44

zuldilinger: the hotel you are staying at must be a bunch of gentoo users02:56
jbaileyNoone should eat a gentoo user.02:56

z3k3zul: is your baz archive the same as the ubuntu baz except for the patches that are in testing?03:04
zulz3k3, yep more external drivers right now03:04
z3k3and.  what is the best way to compile after merging the baz?  there is dpkg- and some other ways.  what is best?03:04
zuldpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -b03:05
z3k3ok, thats what I have been using.03:05
jbaileyDude, jut use 'debuild'03:05
zulafter you remove the debian/config directories for the architectures that you dont want03:05
zuljbailey: im use to it03:05
zulbrb....guinea pig peed on my mouse pad03:06
z3k3lol03:06
z3k3when you are back can you tell me the http:// path to your baz archive?  i thougght i put it in my notes file, but I guess i forgot to save it or something.03:09
zulhttp://zulinux.homelinux.net/arch/zulcss@gmail.com--2005 but it can break without notice03:10
z3k3i understand.03:10
z3k3additionally, is there a way to load a newly installed kernel without rebooting?  03:11
zulnot really...if you wanted to test the abi but you really need to reboot or use something like qemu03:11
z3k3what is abi.  i was reading through the irc logs, and this is mentioned a lot?03:12
z3k3again, i applogize for all the noobish questions.03:13
z3k3:)03:13
zulits ok...everyone else puts up with me 03:13
z3k3i also read that some people make a jailed environment for building kernels, is this something I should look at doing?03:14
zuli havent done it :)03:15
z3k3k.03:15
z3k3ah, Qemu seems like a good idea, saves having to restore system after kernel fails.03:16
z3k3kinda like VMware03:16
z3k3so before you test a kernel with qemu do you create a live image of it?03:17
zuli just reboot my pc with my kernel and see what breaks under normal use03:18
z3k3ahh.  and if it fails you can select your previous kernel.03:18
z3k3assuming you backed it up03:18
zulyep basically03:18
z3k3i was looking at doing this patch.. but before I start, do you know if it is already in the works by someone?03:19
z3k3http://seclists.org/lists/linux-kernel/2005/Apr/0339.html03:19
z3k3or should I be searching bugzilla to see what is in progress.03:19
z3k3the ubuntu wiki kernel info doesnt give a lot of rookie info.. sadly.03:20
zulits not..03:20
zulbugzilla is used to track alot of stuff and when everyone is not in sydney this channel is usually more lively03:20
z3k3ok.  I'll try to build the kernel from your baz archive, test the VIA VT6410 controller, then I'll work on that.03:21
zulcool03:21
zullater03:26
z3k3peace03:27
z3k3still around zul?  got one more quick question fer yea03:43
z3k3when I did a baz get on your archive (kernel-debian--pre1--2.6.11.91) baz reported that it was * checking for kernel-team@ubuntu.com--2005/kernel-debian--pre1--2.6.11.90--patch-81 or earlier... does this merge both your archive with the ubuntu one?03:45
z3k3lol.. hope this works03:45
z3k3doh: Missing /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.12-2.6.11.91/debian/abi/2.6.11.91-1/abiname file.03:51
z3k3also get a crap load of these errrors:  Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/kernel-wedge/commands/gen-control line 161.03:57
zulignore it03:59
z3k3ok.04:00
z3k3what about the abiname thing04:00
z3k3do i have to baz the ubuntu archive first then yours?04:00
zulnot sure i dont get that04:00
z3k3in your archive the folder is /abi/2.6.10-34.  but when compiling its looking for /abi/2.6.11.91-104:07
z3k3time for more scotch.04:07
zulhmmm...thats weird 04:07
z3k3i'm using the base source files from fabbione's website. so that should be ok04:07
zulnot sure about that...04:08
z3k3ok, well.  I'll just manually add the 6410 patch to the patches folder and attempt to compile for now04:09
z3k3ahh.. this new 3.0GHZ is so nice compared to my newly retired PIII-600.  04:12

Z3K3_workzul: i compiled successfully with the vt6410 patch.  also accidently compiled all other arch's (that took a while). :)03:41
Z3K3_workwill test to ensure 6410 controller works tonight.03:41
T-Bonezul: is UDU over yet?03:41

Z3K3_worklol03:45
T-Bonelife is boring without me around. I know =] 03:46
Z3K3_workguys, do you know who generally updates the pci.ids in the kernel.  or is it just done whenever?03:46
zulfuck it was quiet when everyone was in syndey03:46
zulZ3K3_work: usually done when there is a new kernel update03:46
Z3K3_worki imagine towards the end of testing, closer to release, so that its as current as possible?03:47
T-Bonepoor zul, you felt lonely, heh? :)03:47
zulecho echo :)03:48
Z3K3_workping.. pong.03:48
zulZ3K3_work: if you really want to get involved there are over 200 bugs open in bugzilla that deals with the kernel, what I would do is go try to find some fixes for them ;) ill send you a link to the ones in our bugzilla03:55

Z3K3_workquick question, how do I reconfigure x.org, the test 2.6.12 kernel had some ids updates that hopefuly will properly detect my pci-x graphics card and fix some jigglin.  what in your opinions, is the best way to reconfigure"?04:02
zulfor now attach patches to the bugzilla, eventually you might want to set up a baz archive where we can pull from04:02
Z3K3_workok04:02

Z3K3_workmorning.04:20
Z3K3_workI noticed a snippet from someones blog that said that CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled in the kernel (hoary).  Is this intentional?  He goes on to say that enabling this increases desktop speed.  Is this true? 04:21
mjg59Z3K3_work: grep CONFIG_PREEMPT /boot/config-2.6.10-5-386 (or 686)04:22
mjg59My recollection is that it's on in the Ubuntu kernels04:23
Z3K3_workhumm.. seems to be enabled in my 2.6.1204:24
