[07:03] <zooted> hello, is anyone active here?
[07:04] <zooted> I am trying to patch the 2.6.12 ubuntu kernel source with Rick van Rein's BadRam patch and can't figure out how to get the ubuntu-patches applied to the source.
[07:05] <zooted> Any tips?
[07:13] <BenC> there's a howto on the wiki I think
[07:15] <zooted> BenC:  The howto does not address the patch issue and I'm not clear on whether the 2.6.12 source package is already patched or not.  I can shove the BadRam code into the source tree, it is just that I am not sure if all the security patches are already in place.
[07:51] <vbhanu> to implement a filesystem where should one start from....some guides.....i know the concepts i want some guide which would take me through the code...as to how to basically implement in terms of code
[07:58] <BenC> vbhanu: best docs are existing code, try some of  the simpler filesystems like cramfs
[08:37] <vbhanu> BenC : thanks
[02:35] <doko_> fabbione: after changing /boot/grub/device.map, the grub/menu file still uses the old 'root' parameter. what do I need to change else?
[02:39] <crimsun> doko_: what about the kopt= line in /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[02:39] <crimsun> and did you update-grub afterward?
[02:40] <doko_> crimsun: I did run install-grub
[02:44] <doko_> s/install-grub/grub-install/
[02:45] <doko_> hmm, and it does insert again the string vga=0x384, which doesn't work for me, and should be disabled ...
[04:26] <plasma> infinity BenC anyone there?
[04:26] <plasma> i've got a problem with loading ipw2200 on my dell latitude d610
[04:27] <fabbione> doko_: grub-install is only to install the MBR
[04:27] <fabbione> you need to use update-grub 
[04:27] <fabbione> but first you need to edit menu.lst to match your new setup
[04:40] <plasma> hi BenC 
[04:48] <BenC> hello
[04:50] <plasma> BenC: so, can you help me with that? when i boot the systems, i have an interface "ng" for the wlan. but then it crashes and the interface and the ipw2200 module are gone
[05:02] <infinity> I'm not sure if BenC even has an ipw2200.  I'll probably have to help you out with it, but tomorrow... (It's 3am here in Melbourne)
[05:03] <infinity> BenC: Also, have you already done a git pull to ipw2200 1.0.10, to grab their bugfixes? :/
[05:03] <plasma> ok, good point *g* here in germany it's 5pm ;)
[05:03] <crimsun> infinity: he's already merged it. I sent it.
[05:04] <infinity> plasma: I have some family dinner business tomorrow, but I'll be around in around 15 hours (ish), if you want to do some debugging then.
[05:04] <infinity> plasma: Otherwise, it'll have to wait until Monday, when I'm "on the clock" again.
[05:05] <plasma> ok, bye
[05:07] <crimsun> plasma: are you running Dapper's 2.6.15-12.17?
[05:07] <BenC> BenC: yes
[05:08] <plasma> crimsun: no, i'm running breezy's 2.6.12-9-386
[05:08] <crimsun> plasma: ah
[05:08] <infinity> Oh.
[05:08] <infinity> If it's Breezy's kernel, I'll let Ben handle it.
[05:08] <infinity> :)
[05:09] <plasma> ok *g*
[05:09] <infinity> (Cause, y'know, it Works For Me(tm))
[05:34] <Mithrandir> BenC: current dapper, amd64, dualcore goes boom when I ifup an skge interface.
[05:34] <Mithrandir> BenC: hard lock
[05:34] <BenC> can you try a sysrq?
[06:09] <Mithrandir> BenC: actually, it kills X(!)
[06:09] <Mithrandir> or at least keyboard input in X.
[06:09] <Mithrandir> seems to work fine from the console
[06:19] <BenC> weird
[06:19] <BenC> maybe it's dbus?
[06:19] <BenC> brb
[06:38] <doko_> fabbione: that doesn't work. saved the old menu.lst, then did an update-grub:

[08:18] <zul> heylo
[11:25] <kozz> hmm, guys I need some help... can't really understand the layout of the 2.6.15 kernel
[11:26] <kozz> seems to be a lof of differences from the vanilla 2.6.15 kernel from kernel.org
[11:26] <kozz> an ordinary kernel creates a zImage.chrp file but the ubuntu kernel do not
[11:27] <kozz> while the 2.6.12 ubuntu kernel did
[11:27] <kozz> the menus in in menuconfig about chrp also seems to be different, how to I create a ordinary chrp kernel?
[11:41] <kozz> btw, where can I find the patches? there is not directory debian/patches
