lamontfabbione: so how's your current thinking on 3.3 for the kernel?06:17
fabbionelamont: i am more and more convince to roll back to 3.306:17
fabbionebut we can't for ppc6406:17
lamonthppa needs gcc-3.4 as well06:18
fabbioneso we need 3.4 for hppa and ppc6406:18
lamont(since there is no gcc-3.3 in the archive for hppa....)06:18
fabbionei386 can handle06:18
fabbioneamd64 seems ok06:18
lamontia64 would kind of like 3.3, at least for a test build...06:18
fabbionethe only one that needs 3.3 seems to be ia64 right?06:18
lamontwhich I'll wind up really doing tomorrow06:18
fabbioneok06:19
fabbionedoes hppa boot with 3.4?06:19
lamontOTOH, if we assume that there will be another kernel upload for ia64, and we further assume that lamont is lazy, then if there was an excuse to upload a new kernel in the next several hours, it'd be really nice if it (a) switched ia64 to 3.3, and (b) overrode the abi change that almost certainly causes06:20
lamontyes06:20
lamontwell, last I checked06:20
lamont2.6.12-1-hppa64 06:20
lamontand the other buildd is even more new06:20
lamontgcc-4.0/hppa is in the dh_builddep maze!!!06:21
lamontdoko: dh_movefiles: Compatibility levels before 3 are deprecated.06:21
fabbioneyeah i told him already06:21
lamonthehe06:21
lamontcoolness.  all of my packages are at 3 or 4.06:22
fabbioneso are mine :)06:23
fabbionecoolness! f11 is back online06:27
fabbionefor the first time i can pretest/build all 6 arches06:28
fabbionelamont: dunno if you are looking at baz anymore, but i did a huge rework of the udebs06:29
lamonthaven't looked at baz in a bit..06:29
fabbioneok06:30
=== lamont has been trying to focus on (1) ia64, and (2) getting hppa built
fabbionei won't manage to realling the configs for breezy... tough06:30
fabbionethat will be the first step for breezy+106:30
lamontrealign, you mean?06:30
fabbionelike CONFIG_PREEMPT enabled on some arches and not others?06:31
lamontright06:31
fabbioneafaik HPPA has PCI, but doesn't build a lot of drivers...06:31
fabbionestuff like that06:31
lamontwell, more pedantically, many of the PCI drivers for generic cards don't work on hppa.  maybe... (really don't know)06:31
fabbionewee if nobody builds them we will never know and get them fixed..06:32
infinityfabbione : Where are you currently enabling preempt?06:32
infinityfabbione : My last spin of preempt on my powerpc machine resulted in random spectacular oopses and panics.06:32
fabbioneinfinity: i386, ppc64, ia6406:33
fabbioneall the others are unset06:33
infinityIs davis running a ppc64 kernel with preempt right now?06:34
lamontBuilt successfully06:34
lamontPurging chroot-breezy/build/buildd/gcc-4.0-4.0.106:34
lamont!!!!!!06:34
fabbioneinfinity: yes06:34
fabbioneYAY06:34
infinityfabbione : Ahh, good, then that seems like an adequate test for ppc64. :)06:34
fabbioneinfinity: PPC + PREEMEPT needs SMP06:35
fabbionethat06:35
fabbionethat's what i was told06:35
infinityfabbione : I'll just warn you now that it seems hideously broken on ppc32 and if you enable it, you'll be in for a world of hurt.06:35
fabbioneit's not..06:35
infinityHrm.  Or, it needs SMP.  I guess that makes sens, since preempt just reuses SMP spinlocks.06:35
fabbionei wonder why it's not enabled on amd64 at all06:35
infinity(THough, I thought there had been work years ago to abstract that, so they were independant of each other)06:35
fabbioneor we can just disable it everywhere06:36
fabbionethat would make me even more happy06:36
infinityMe too, TBH.06:36
fabbionegiven that GFS isn't exactly PREEMPT safe06:36
infinityPREEMPT is still one of those "play with it yourself if you're smart enough to compile your own kernel and break your own machine" things, IMO.06:37
infinityAlso, bed for real now.06:38
fabbioneconfig PREEMPT06:39
fabbione          Say Y here if you are building a kernel for a desktop, embedded06:39
fabbione          or real-time system.  Say N if you are unsure.06:39
fabbionewell we are distributing a server, aren't we?06:39
fabbioneor did i misundertood something about Ubuntu? ;)06:40
=== lamont sleeps
fabbionenight lamont06:43
fabbionePREEMPT is gone06:47

zuljbailey: you around?02:28
fabbionezul: hey02:31
fabbionehe is at OLS02:31
=== ..[topic/#ubuntu-kernel:fabbione] : Ubuntu kernel development discussion ONLY | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/KernelTeam | There are no kernel bugs.. only broken hardware | http://people.u.c/~lamont/Archives/kernel-team@ubuntu.com--2005/ playground: kernel-debian--preX,5--2.6.12
zulyeah i wanted to go hang out after work02:35
fabbionezul: it's easier if you hook up on ofct #parisc02:36
fabbionethere are the people that share the room with him there02:36
zulokie dokie02:39
zulfabbione: no more extra drivers or is it still ok?02:40
fabbionezul: it depends02:40
fabbionei am being a bit close on accepting stuff02:40
zuli was thinking speakup02:40
fabbionebut it really depends what it is02:40
fabbionehmmmm HMMMMM02:40
fabbionezul: i would be more happy go get the acerhk back02:41
zulsince im going back to development this weekend for sure02:41
fabbioneyou removed it because it was apparently unmaintained02:41
fabbionebut it is02:41
zuli think there might be a more of demand for speakup though02:41
zuli read it on the website it wasnt maybe i misread it02:41
fabbioneyeah the website is crpa02:41
fabbionecra02:41
fabbioneCRAP02:41
zulbesides i think its on breezy's roadmap02:51
fabbionenobody bothered to ask us02:54
zulyeah...uh...whatshisname02:55
zuldamn it02:56
zulheh...i can check the logs and prove it ;)02:59
fabbionezul, chmj: a very simple task for all of you03:19
fabbioneclosing the bugs in bugzilla with the latest upload?03:20
chmjerm, just closing ?03:23
fabbionechmj: see the kernel changelog...03:23
fabbionefor 4.403:23
fabbionethere are a bunch of bug closers03:23
fabbionepick these bugs and bugzilla -> resolved+fixed with a note that has been in done in kernel 2.6.12-4.403:23
fabbionenothing too fancy...03:24
fabbionei am just too tired to fight with bugzilla03:24
zulslacker..:)03:28
lamontfabbione: linux-source-2.6.12_2.6.12-4.4 is near the top of the queue for hppa.  I guess that's a good thing... :_)04:06
lamontfabbione: can't just do edit many?04:06
lamontor you're _that_ tired??04:07
jbaileyzul: Am around now.04:08
zulim off around 4 today and am getting downtown around 5:30ish what are you up to around that time04:22

mjg59Wurgh.05:17
=== mjg59 has correctly diagnosed the AGP resume failure, hurrah
mjg59fabbione: I'll need to send you a patch for that before too long05:18
fabbionemjg59: ok...05:18
fabbionetoo bad i just uploaded a kernel today05:19
mjg59Yeah, it's not urgent05:19
jbaileyfabbione: Ooo.  New kernel?/  Perhaps it will unbreak my acpi...05:42
=== jbailey hides.
