infinitylamont : If you're planning on doing a -6.7 release (and hey, you won't see me complaining about someone else doing it), hold off, I need to test a ppc64 patch and get it in.12:17
lamont__infinity: targetting tonight late to start test builds12:18
lamont__as in, somewhere before 0500 UTC or so12:19
infinityHrm, that'll be a tight squeeze, but I'll see what I can do.12:19
infinityOtherwise, I'll just have to followup with a release with one change. ;)12:19
lamont__well, mostly it's because I want to go to sleep... worst case, I'll dump doing the test builds and upload on you12:21
infinitySleep?  Pfft.12:27
lamont__hehe12:28
infinity<blink>12:29
infinityCan someone explain to me why onoffice.org2 has suddently started depending on a full build environment?12:29
infinityopenoffice, too.12:30
lamont__because they will ruin your life12:31
infinitySeriously, a dist-upgrade on my laptop wants to install like 5 compilers and a bunch of dev libs.12:32
=== infinity grumps in doko's direction.
lamont__infinity: just wait - they're bootstrapping i386/amd64 biarch, which will churn things a bit12:34
dokoinfinity: openoffice? no12:39
zullamont, : 686 built without a problem12:56
lamont__zul: coolness12:58
zulyou can get from my arch to test if you wish12:58
lamontzul: OK.  But that'll be in several hours.02:00

jbaileylamont: Oy.09:00
jbaileylamont: My patch seems to work so far.09:02
jbaileyI need to do two more tests, and then do I hand it to you?09:03
lamontjbailey: yeah.  or you can commit it to the playground...09:32
jbaileylamont: Does that mean learning enough baz to do that?09:32
lamonthehe09:34
lamontjust give me the patch09:34
lamontjbailey: oh - btw, how does mkinitrd decide what modules to put in the initrd it's building?09:35
lamontcurrently loaded modules? hw lists? what?09:35
jbaileyin MODULES=dep mode, or MODULES=most ?09:35
lamontboth09:35
jbaileyHmm.09:40
jbaileyExcellent question.09:40
=== jbailey comments yet again that Perhaps Xu thought he was programming in Perl.
jbaileyinitramfs-tools is going to just walk the /sys tree on the local machine.09:43
jbaileymost will just include a list of modules that I specify.09:43
jbaileylamont: Do you have a particular problem you're trying to solve?09:46
lamontanswering a question for support types...10:03
lamontI think that answers the question10:04
lamontinfinity: did you have kernel patches for me?10:27
lamontjbailey: so =most is really =dep + jbailey's list?10:27
jbaileyOn initramfs, yes.10:28
jbaileyOn initrd it seems to calculate it.  Following it involves following the rabbit through the file descriptor maze.10:28
lamonthehe10:29
lamonthoary (and sarge) use initrd, yes?10:32
jbaileyYes10:32
lamontwas really just wondering if =most was a superset of =dep, or if it was "just this list, kthxbye"10:32
lamontfor initrd :-(10:33
jbaileyOh. yes.10:33
jbaileyThat's an easier answer. =)10:33
jbailey                most)10:34
jbailey                        add_modules_most10:34
jbailey                        add_modules_dep maybe10:34
jbailey                        ;;10:34
jbailey                dep)10:34
jbailey                        add_modules_dep10:34
jbailey                        ;;10:34
lamontlol10:34
lamontbtw, ext2_fs.h sucks10:34
lamont(debian, that is...)10:35
lamontthe boot loader portion of palo still needs love.10:35
lamontjbailey: and "calculate" == ??  just wondering what sorts of things... 30000 ft handwaving answer is ok10:36
jbaileycalculate?10:45
jbaileyI don't see that in the script or the manpage.10:45
lamont<jbailey> On initrd it seems to calculate it.  Following it involves following the rabbit through the file descriptor maze.10:52
jbaileyadd_modules_dep calculates the modules list somehow.10:53
jbaileyBut I don't see at a glance how it calculates it.10:53
lamontok.  no hints on what it uses as inputs either, eh?10:53
lamontbummer10:53
lamontjbailey: initramfs-tools is for grub2, or just a simple dropin replacement/upgrade to initrd?11:01
jbaileyreplacement for initrd11:01
lamontwoot11:01
jbaileyThis acpi patch I think is my last major blocker for making it default11:01
lamontnearly done? or what's the status?11:01
lamontah, ok11:01
jbailey(I found a slight bug that I want to fix.  Will test again tomorrow since it takes a while to build)11:01
lamontthat's the kernel patch you have for me?11:02
lamontor what's that status atm?11:02

=== efpc2003 [efpc2003@rev-200-40-117-60.netgate.com.uy] has left #ubuntu-kernel []
=== lamont wonders if jbailey is planning 2.4 support in initramfs-tools. :-)
jbaileylamont: No11:50
jbaileyYes, that's the patch I'm working on.11:50
lamontok11:50
jbaileyIt doesn't support the old style initrd DSDT.11:50
jbaileyIt ought to, so it'll just be a slight bug.11:50
