chmjBenC, still around ?04:05
BenCyeah04:05
chmjcool 04:05
chmjlsmod is not in busybox 04:06
chmjso I $> cat  /proc/modules 04:06
chmjthe image I generated has ide-disk,ide-core and ide-generic 04:07
BenCthat's odd04:10
BenCide-core should be in the kernel04:10
BenCso this is a self compiled image?04:10
chmjbut its nope04:11
chmjdist-upgrade 04:12
chmjthe breezy kernel boots but all the devices don't work 04:13
chmjfunny thing, whn I reload the modules, they create the neccessoty file and I can mount the drive from busybox 04:15
BenCso ide-core exists in dapper kernel?04:21
=== cjb` [n=cjb@islay.ra.phy.cam.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
BenCsomething's wrong there, because it should not04:21
BenCI just checked, all arch's have CONFIG_IDE=y04:22
BenCchmj: does dmesg show that the drives were detected, and it's just that the device file isn't created?04:23
BenCif so, that's a udev bug04:23

chmjthe drivers are detected just before it drops the shell04:39
BenCare you sure you have the latest udev?04:39
BenCtry upgrading, and rerun "sudo update-initramfs -u"04:40
chmjhmmm 04:41
chmjdist-upgrage surely should have installed that 04:42

dilingerdemanding, aren't we? :p05:38
bubbalwzyes05:38
bubbalwzi'll hold his wife hostage if he ignores me05:39
bubbalwzand fabbione's wife too05:39
BenCbubbalwz: yo05:49
BenCgood luck holding my wife down, I've tried05:50
fabbionebubbalwz: you know your kid is not really your.. don't you?05:50
BenClol05:50
fabbionealso.. if you hold my wife.. good luck.. you can keep her :P05:50
zulah thats not nice..05:52
fabbionezul: nah.. we know bubba :)05:52
BenCbubbalwz: btw, my wife says hi :)05:53
zulfabbione: ah ok..05:53
BenCbubbalwz: btw, make sure megaraid_mbox is loaded05:54
bubbalwzheh05:54
bubbalwzit is05:54
bubbalwzwell, it's in my /etc/mkinitramfs/modules file05:54
fabbionezul: i mean.. we know him bibblicaly :)05:54
BenCbubbalwz: cat /proc/modules make sure it is loaded05:55
zulfabbione: great...thanks for the imagery in my head now05:55
BenCor modprobe megaraid_mbox05:55
bubbalwzwell, it's not in 2.6.1005:55
BenCwhat about just megaraid?05:55
bubbalwzjust megaraid is in 2.6.1005:55
bubbalwzand it's loaded, as i'm on the box 05:56
BenCis it loaded?05:56
BenCok05:56
bubbalwzmegaraid 41704 6 - Live 0xf881a00005:56
bubbalwzscsi_mod 127552 3 sg,sd_mod,megaraid, Live 0xf883500005:56
BenCso it's breezy where it breaks?05:56
bubbalwzyep05:56
bubbalwz2.6.12 is a nogo05:56
BenCis megaraid in breezy?05:56
bubbalwzyep, megaraid, megaraid_mbox and megaraid_mm05:56
BenCok, did you load megaraid_mbox in breezy (after you get to the busybox shell)?05:57
fabbioneBenC: i think the megaraid /megaraid_mm split up might miss a PCI ID05:57
BenCyeah, there's a way to force it though05:57
bubbalwznope, but I can try (not on the console of the box now, but can try later)05:57
bubbalwzjust tell me what to do05:57
BenCmodprobe megaraid_mbox05:58
bubbalwzk, i'll try that05:59
bubbalwzi did verify that megaraid_mbox was in the initrd image05:59
BenCecho "101e:1960" > /sys/bus/pci/megaraid_mbox/new_id05:59
BenCecho "101e:1960" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/megaraid_mbox/new_id05:59
BenCthat one05:59
bubbalwzok06:00
bubbalwzwish I could try it now, but i cant06:01
bubbalwzif that works, then what?06:01
bubbalwzand, would it be possible to install a clean version of breezy off cd ?06:01
BenCif that works, then you just need to add a custom script to initramfs stuff to do it for you06:03
BenCto do a breezy install, you'd need to drop to shell and do the same thing06:04
bubbalwzso is this fixable?06:04
BenCyeah, if it works, we can do a fix in the  next kernel for breezy06:04
BenCjust a one-liner06:04
bubbalwzok, cool06:04
bubbalwzi'll try that when i get home and get back w/ you06:05
BenCok06:05
bubbalwzgracias06:05
bubbalwztell britey i said hi06:05
BenCok, later dude06:05
bubbalwzlater on06:05
BenCfabbione: did I tell you I have a bluetooth mouse on my pb now?06:05
BenCso sweet to be able to move my mouse from across the room :)06:06
fabbioneBenC: no06:06
fabbioneand i nees still to get my touchpad configured properly06:06
BenCI was going to get the apple bt mouse, it it was single button06:06
bubbalwzomg what to do w/ just 1 button :)06:06
fabbioneyeah, i don't really mind the single button06:06
BenCgot a kensington instead06:06
fabbioneBenC: i took the webcam with me06:07
BenCblah, I need scroll wheel :P06:07
fabbioneand cloned the trees on my lappy06:07
fabbioneBenC: there is a scroll wheel on the apple06:07
fabbionei will show it to you sunday06:07
fabbioneit's a little tiny ball on top 06:07
sn9only the mighty mouse has that. the others are one-button06:08
BenCthe guy in the store told me it only had the one button06:09
sn9the mighty mouse is also the only apple mouse that can right-click06:09
BenCyeah, the bt apple mouse doesn't have scroll or second button06:09
BenCfabbione: I paid a hefty chunk for the 17" case for my pb too...that sucker was expensive06:10
sn9are you running 2.6.15-14 on your pb?06:10
BenCof course :)06:11
sn9because i have 2.6.15-13 on the iBook and keywest i2c segfaults on load06:12
BenCthat's a snd-powermac issue, which should be fixed in -1406:12
sn9thanx06:14
BenCwell, it shouldn't oops anymore, but I can't guarantee that sound is working :)06:15
sn9works perfectly in -9, so what broke it in -13?06:15
fabbioneBenC: sound seems to work here on 1406:21
BenCsn9: I reworked snd-powermac so that it would work on more systems (and work reliably on systems where it was a little quirky)06:21
BenCfabbione: it should, you have the same pb I do :)06:22
BenCsn9: I just can't test them all, so it's a little hit or miss06:22
BenCeasy to fix though06:22
BenCtoonie should be working great, but tumbler and snapper may need a little extra tweaking06:23
sn9with the breezy kernel, snd-powermac would refuse to work unless dmasound-pmac was loaded and unloaded prior to loading snd-powermac06:24
=== lamont [n=lamont@mib.fc.hp.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
BenCyeah, that should be fixed with the new driver06:30
BenCthe main thing that was reworked was the gpio access06:30
BenCsnd-powermac will get a lot more robust in 2.6.16/1706:31
BenChopefully support digitial in/out and everything06:31
sn9but that was only true on iBooks. on TiBooks, it had no problems06:31
sn9really? i would love to have the mic working06:31
BenCsn9: right, that's because the gpio mechanism was guessing06:31
BenCnow the gpio (on recent systems, atleast within the past 3 years) will be done correctly06:32
