BenCredskins crush the cowboys....my weekend is complete01:51
zulmeh...american football is boring01:54
BenCmaybe to you01:54
=== BenC enjoys it more than any other game on tv
zultoo many stoppages for my taste01:54
zulbesides i didnt grow up with it on tv01:55
BenCyeah, it's been a sunday tradition in my family as long as I can remember01:56
BenCthe odd thing is, I'm a redskins fan, and my wife is a cowboys fan, so Sunday's like today are anything but boring :)01:57
zulheh...i dont think we have a family tradition for sunday01:57
=== cjb [n=cjb@islay.ra.phy.cam.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
zulheh..my brother came over one time to my wife's parents house wearing a maple leafs hat, my mother in law nearly kicked him out02:55
infinityHabs fan?02:56
zulsens fan02:56
infinity(I would have said Senators, but no one's a Senators fan... Are they?)02:56
infinityOh. :)02:56
=== zul slaps infinity
infinityAny team that didn't even exist when I was a kid isn't worth kicking someone out of your house for.02:57
infinity"Oh my god, you don't like the Sharks, out with you!"  Bah.02:58
zultrue but she gets violent when she watches hockey02:58
infinity(Okay, if your mother-in-law is, like 80, and remembers the FIRST Senators team, then props to her)02:58
zulhehe02:59
zulmust go watch family guy...bbl03:00
lamontBenC: I expect I could probably find one... ping me tomorrow03:02
lamontor email to lamont.jones@hp.com03:02
BenClamont: find what?03:03
infinityA ccis controller.03:04
lamontyeah, that03:04
zullamont: i wanted to test a grub boot on it03:08
=== BenC is still lost
zulummm...BenC i asked earlier if anyone had a ccis raid controller so i can get them to test a grub patch that was done and jeff suggested that lamont might have access to it03:10
BenCoh, ok, he said BenC, so I was wondering how I got into that :)03:10
infinityBecause this is your channel, and you're the channel OVERLORD, dude.  You know all.03:13
infinity(Or you should pretend to)03:13
lamontBenC: because I can't read, that's why03:17
=== BenC nods at the channel
BenCinfinity: was that bug for i2c-keywest directed at the proper package?03:18
infinityYeah, though I wonder if I should offload the thermal hooks to acpi-support and mjg59, since I don't really grok what it's doing in initramfs. :)03:18
infinityIs i2c-keywest always required, or just sometimes?... And will it hurt to just load it anyway, even if it's not needed?03:19
lamonthrm... i386 with sata hdd... that should work, yes?03:20
lamont(actually it's an amd64 box, but...)03:20
infinityWorks for me.  i386 and amd64 with SATA.03:20
infinityOf course, it doesn't work for everyone. :)03:21
lamontit barfed installing initrd-tools (breezy)03:21
infinityOO, my Google t-shirt came in the mail.03:22
BenCinfinity: always required03:25
infinityKay.  I'll shove it in the PPC thermal bit, then.03:25
lamontamd 64 3500+ cpu. yum03:26
dilingeri used to have a google tshirt03:28
dilinger:(03:28
=== lamont has a couple around here somewhere
dilingerurgg03:28
dilingerudev is still screwy03:28
dilingercrw-rw----  1 root root 1, 3 2005-12-18 16:50 /dev/null03:28
infinityNice.03:32
lamonthrmpf.04:27
cjbI reported my tales of woe from earlier in #ubuntu-devel, speaking of SATA:  http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21248 04:30
lamont0000:01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 595404:32
lamontthat's my current woe.04:32
lamontfabbione: helep04:32
mjg59cjb: Yeah, that looks like a bug04:33
cjblamont: I think I have one of those.  What's the problem?04:34
lamontit;s the 'Unknown device'04:34
lamontX doesn't like it04:34
cjb(Mine's an HP a1250n with the crappy ATI bridge that can't count interrupts properly.)04:34
lamont(II) RADEON(0): [drm]  drmOpen failed04:34
lamont(EE) RADEON(0): [dri]  DRIScreenInit failed.  Disabling DRI.04:34
lamontHP A1130N04:35
cjbOh.  I didn't have a problem; X worked even though lspci can't identify the chip.04:35
mjg59lamont: dri being disabled doesn't sound unexpected04:36
lamontmjg59: ok.  rebooting with the current (breezy-security) kernel04:36
lamontthen I'll worry if things don't work..04:36
lamontFatal server error:04:38
lamontCaught signal 4.  Server aborting04:38
lamontthat's the acutally fatality04:38
mjg59lamont: Oh.04:38
mjg59lamont: Blame daniels04:38
lamontI don't care who broke it, I just want X to work...04:38
mjg59Try disabling acceleration04:38
lamontuh... clue-factor on X config is kinda low here...04:39
cjbComment out 'load "glx"', for starters.04:39
mjg59In the section that says ati, add Option "NoAccel" "true"04:39
lamontmjg59: so that fixed it...04:41
lamontI wonder if maybe the i386 ati driver doesn't like amd64 hardware...04:42
mjg59lamont: No, it happens on i386 too04:42
cjbThe ATI card situation is such a mess.  We don't even have a proprietary driver for the latest batch.04:48
infinityNo terrible loss there; the proprietary driver sucks. :/06:14
infinity(And I don't mean "sucks cause it's non-free, like the nvidia driver", I mean "sucks cause it sucks")06:15

fabbioneBenC: oh ok.. 02:02
fabbionei just did remove some code :)02:02
fabbionei was in a hurry to test some dri fixes on ppc from benh02:02
BenC-9.11 is probably going out today02:17
fabbionecool02:18
fabbioneBenC: btw.. that idea of modular kernel upload stuff...02:18
fabbioneyou should probably talk with acme on netdev about it02:18
BenCok02:18
fabbionehe had a very similar idea for connectiva02:18
fabbionewe discussed about it a bit02:18

infinityBenC : Actually, on second thought, I may fiddle with that hardcoded path first thing in the morning, so if the LRM ABI bump isn't urgent, may as well leave it to me.04:24
BenCsure, it will be morning before the builds start getting done anyway04:25
zuloh yeah i made a couple of patches this weekend i have to do a test build before i do anything else04:42
desrtBenC; word.04:42
desrtBenC; new firewire love in the coming kernel?04:42
BenCdesrt: somewhat...I reverted the code I had pulled from the firewire git tree04:43
desrtah.  i see.04:43
zulBenC: you are always breaking things arent you ;)04:43
desrtwell.  i'll give it a spin when it hits the archives and let you know04:43

zuler...makes the drivers hotplug aware09:44
BenCok09:44
BenCmakes them autoloadable is probably what you mean :)09:44
zulyeah..09:44
zulhuked on phonix wurked 4 me09:44
zuloh yeah where do you want me to place the stripped/uncompressed vmlinux?09:46
BenCnot sure.../boot is probably a bad place09:48
BenC/usr/lib/kernel/ maybe09:48
BenC/usr/lib/dbg/09:48
BenCthere, that's probably best09:48
BenClibc uses /usr/lib/debug/, and gdm looks there09:48
BenCgdb I mean09:49
BenClet's go with the latter09:49
zul/usr/lib/dbg? okie dokie then09:54
BenCno, /debug/09:57
