dokofabbione: with a amd64-k8-smp kernel, the keyboard gets very unresponsive, when the machine is under normal load (two processes, regular disk I/O). when typing I get some characters twice or triple12:36
fabbionelucky you!!!!12:37
fabbioneyou don't need to type as much as i do to get the same crap12:37
fabbionedoko: you better try 2.6.10 and see if the problem is there too12:37
dokoheh ... rebooting to hoary doesn't show tis12:37
fabbionealso.. file a bug.. it's unlikely we will even attempt to fix it for breezy12:38
fabbioneif you boot 2.6.12 non-smp, does it work?12:38
dokono12:38
fabbioneso it's generic .12 for you..12:38
fabbionei am running amd64-k8 here12:38
fabbioneno problems..12:38
fabbioneit might be your keyboard is shy12:38
dokoyes, mostly seen when removing a build tree (on a RAID-0 xfs fs) and typing in another window.12:39
dokoyour disks are too slow ...12:39
fabbioneor too fast12:39
fabbioneit sounds like an IRQ problem..12:39
fabbionemeh xfs.12:40
fabbionewhy on earth do you use that crap....12:40
fabbionedoko: does your mobo support APIC?12:40
fabbioneif so try to turn it off12:40
fabbioneor boot with noapic12:40
fabbionei had problems on mine12:40
fabbionebut like yours..12:41
fabbionemine was crashing hard12:41
dokook, will try, currently OOo2 help is building ...12:41
fabbioneok..12:41
fabbionejust don't upload gcc anymore12:42
fabbioneor i will kill you12:42
fabbionesparc is bootable and it can even install12:42
fabbioneyou so much don't want me upset after breezy release :P12:42
fabbionedo you? ;)12:42
fabbioneanyway.. i was just kidding... about the "kill you"...12:43
fabbionei will eat you alive :P12:43

=== KRavEN [n=kraven@66-169-218-177.dhcp.dntn.tx.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
KRavENanyone in?  I had some questions on using the rules file to build from source03:02
fabbioneKRavEN: just ask03:04
fabbionesomebody will answer03:04
KRavENwell, I trimmed down my config quite a bit and i have it building jsut fine, I was just wondering if there was an easier way to get it to complete the debian/rules binary-udebs than to edit each file in debian/d-i/shared to comment out the unused modules03:08
KRavENalso having to go through and delete all the files that have empty categories03:08
fabbioneno there is no way03:08
KRavENI saw you talking abotu something similar in an old weblog03:09
fabbioneif you change configs and modules03:09
fabbioneyou need to update the udeb files03:09
fabbioneno otherway around that03:09
KRavENwas hoping there was a script that would take th eoutput from the install modules and then build the correct shared links03:09
KRavENokay, thaks03:09
fabbioneno03:10
fabbioneyou can't do it automatically03:10
fabbionebecause there is no mapping between modules name/position and their scope03:10
KRavENnice work on breezy btw, I'm very happy with it for the last month since I moved from hoary03:13
dilingeri need to fix my breezy box, it stopped booting after a kernel upgrade :/03:14
KRavENheh. forgot to keep an old one in grub?03:14
dilingerno, the old one's around, but grub ignores my usb keyboard03:14
KRavENahh, damn old bios03:15
dilingerand i don't have a ps2 keyboard unpacked03:15
KRavENsometimes screwing wit the bios usb KB settings will fix it03:15
KRavENdepeding on the bios 03:15
fabbionedilinger: yo03:16
fabbioneKRavEN: thanks03:16
KRavENheh, I can feel your pain, i have a MB that has no ps2 ports at all03:20
KRavENis there any way to get it to spit out all its complaints before erroring out? like after the copy-modules and the find-dups?03:27
KRavENgot copy modules done by exporting the sourcedir and then just doing the kernel-wedge copy-modules repeatedly until I got them all but I cant do the same with fidn-dups03:28
fabbioneno you need to solve one problem at a time03:28
dilingerfabbione: hey03:33
dilingerfabbione: will the schedules for ubz be known in advance?03:33
fabbionedilinger: you mean the specific BOFs sessions?03:33
dilingeryea03:33
fabbioneor just the general schedule?03:33
fabbioneno ide03:33
fabbionea03:33
dilingerif there's a kernel BOF, i'd like to be around for it03:33
fabbionei think they are trying to use LP for it03:34
fabbionebut i am not sure what's the status tbh03:34
dilingerLP?03:34
fabbionedilinger:  i will let you know.. stay tuned03:34
fabbioneLaunchpad03:34
dilingerok03:34
fabbionewe planned a kernel bof03:34
fabbioneand i added another one03:34
fabbioneto evaluate other directions03:35
fabbionelike a more conservative kernel for the 5 years server support03:35

dilinger5 years?  that sounds like a security nightmare :)03:42
fabbionedilinger: 5 for servers 3 for desktop03:45
KRavENdoes that require you never do a kernel revision?03:47
KRavENlike to a new version03:47
fabbioneKRavEN: once a kernel is in stable.. it's only security updates03:49
fabbioneso no new versions03:49

KRavENis there a trick to getting the restricted modules to build?  doesnt seem to like the linux-headers04:16
fabbioneKRavEN: we can't ensure that lrm will built with custom kernels04:16
KRavENahh04:16
fabbioneyou might want to check debian/control.stub04:16
fabbioneand stuff like that04:16
KRavENyeah, I edited that to what shoudl work but I get a lot of no such file or directory warnings for include files, ill keep looking04:17

fabbionehey BenC 05:26
BenChey05:28
BenCthanks for the upload in my absense05:28
fabbionei did no upload05:30
fabbionei have one pending05:30
fabbioneplease let's keep it there as it is05:30
fabbionethere is a security issue and several sparc fixes05:30
BenC"I did no" == "I did one"?05:31
fabbionei did no uploads05:31
fabbionei have one pending with .2205:31
BenCI got an upload notification for .2105:31
fabbionethey are all lamont work :)05:31
BenCah05:32
BenCI read the changelog wrong05:32
lamont__twas a bad start-of-week05:32
BenClamont: everything good with ia64 now?05:32
lamont__I think so05:33
BenCis ia64 a supported arch for breezy?05:33
fabbionenope05:33
lamont__need to retest, but at least we have a kernel.05:33
BenCsweet05:33
lamont__not canonical-supported, that's true05:33
BenCinstallable ia64 cd's now?05:33
lamont__should be05:33
lamont__although I think you want the RCC05:33
lamont__which should be RSN05:33
BenCnetboot?05:33
lamont__trick is to make sure that the kernel you have is -9.2105:33
lamont__netboot should "just work" - completely untested05:34
lamont__-20 was a netboot-only kernel, since IDE was completely fubar05:34
lamont__and really uninteresting on ide-hdd machines05:34
BenCI think my i2k is scsi05:35
=== lamont__ burns a current-ish ia64 live cd to test taht
lamont__hppa live is, well, mada05:36
fabbioneBenC: are you good with the changes in .22??05:47
fabbionethey are all tested05:47
BenCyes05:52
BenCany reason we don't have CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND enabled?05:52
BenCbug 12310 claims it fixes his crashing when resuming with USB mouse installed05:53
fabbioneBenC: it was marked as highly experimental05:53
fabbioneso we can probably turn it on for dapper05:53
lamont__BenC: current breezy live ia64 is not happy, need to wait for the new builds that I think Kamion is making now05:54
BenCok05:54
BenCthe usb controllers seem to use the same code for CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND as it does for CONFIG_PM06:02
BenCbut the usb core takes extra steps like suspending devices when CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND is enabled06:03
fabbioneBenC: in any case we so much don't want to test that now :)06:04
BenCyeah, just wishing we could06:08
BenClot of usb/resume related bugs06:08
fabbioneyeah06:10
fabbionethough luck06:10
crimsunfabbione: will .22 be uploaded post-RC?07:19
fabbionecrimsun: yes.. RC is now07:20
crimsunfabbione: ok, thanks. I've uploaded a dpatch for #15031 that should really be in Breezy, since it prevents an OOPS on boot.07:21
fabbionelooking in a sec07:25
fabbionecrimsun: no07:45
fabbionewe are not going to apply that patch07:45
fabbionenot for breezy at least07:45
crimsunfabbione: all right.07:45
fabbioneit's just too intrusive07:46
crimsunindeed07:46
fabbione87K of changes.. i will get mdz hang us on a cross and burn us alive07:46
=== doko starts watching
crimsunugh, that alc880 is a beast. It's the only one that's OOPSing on boot - all the other codecs with the Intel HDA work just fine.07:50

jbaileyIt's fast.08:55
jbaileyIt's well used.08:55
jbaileyAnd in a pinch, you can make it do *anything*08:58
zulbleah..not when you have bad experiences with it09:09
zulmust...watch...hockey09:13
jbaileyReally?09:45
jbaileyI know few people with bad experiences with sendmail09:45
jbaileyOr at least, few people who haven't done something silly like try to edit sendmail.cf directly. =)09:45
jbaileyBut that's like editting your gnome configs by using hexedit on the binaries.09:46
fabbionewhy not?09:46
fabbioneyou don't like the fun?09:46
jbaileyfabbione: Dude.09:46
jbaileyfabbione: I enjoy the fun of editting binaries with a hex editor. =)09:46
fabbioneehhe09:46
jbaileyBut the canonical way of doing it is editting the sendmail.mc file. =)09:46
fabbionegiven that old admin did left one09:48
jbaileyfabbione: Well, it depends how ugly the old admin's changes were.10:59
