[09:14] hmm i never noticed that [09:14] i don't use any of them [09:14] last time I rebooted (even in macosx) they were on to start [09:14] it was weird [09:14] oh.. [09:14] no, never seen [09:14] i need to check with the latest kernel tho [09:14] it's a bit i don't update the toy [09:14] well, the lights were on, but they weren't enabled [09:14] nope.. never seen [09:15] shouldn't be kernel related, since macosx was affected too [09:15] I fear hardware issues :) [09:15] possibly [09:15] we can verify the OF versions.. [09:15] i just don't know how [09:15] something in /proc/device-tree [09:16] ok i will look at it later [09:16] wife is using it atm [09:17] I'm hoping terra/ibm will do that deal again soon, my wife wants one for herself :) [09:17] but that means I'll get the G5 for building/testing [09:18] ehehe [09:30] BenC: ok i am done with the redhat cluster suite [09:30] you can pull anytime [09:30] ok, thanks [09:31] any more test builds of snd-powermac.ko?

[03:10] Mithrandir: ? [03:10] BenC: have you done anything which could have made /dev/null turn up as c 0 259 in the latest kernels? [03:10] (the static /dev/null) [03:11] (when it's on squashfs) [03:11] heh, no, pretty sure I haven't :) [03:11] sounds like a stray udev rule to me [03:11] unless something in squashfs did it [03:11] sn9: static dev. === zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [03:11] heylo [03:12] BenC: same image looks fine with an older kernel. [03:12] I see it on both i386 and amd64 [03:12] i can check ppc [03:13] a quick ls -l showed 1,3 [03:13] BenC: if you pull down http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/livecd-base/current/i386.squashfs and look at it, you'll see that /dev/null is c 0 259 [03:14] sn9: how did you check? [03:14] what do you mean "static dev"? [03:14] if you mount that image somewhere and look in /dev [03:14] i did ls -l [03:14] Mithrandir: but what created that file? [03:15] : tfheen@thosu /tmp > sudo mount -o loop amd64.squashfs /mnt -t squashfs [03:15] : tfheen@thosu /tmp > ls -l /mnt/dev/null [03:15] crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0, 259 2006-02-03 05:53 /mnt/dev/null [03:15] BenC: mksquashfs. [03:16] this worked with -14 but not -15 [03:16] oh. i looked at -14 [03:17] Mithrandir: no, what created /dev/null in the dir where you used mksquashfs [03:17] BenC: debootstrap/makedev. [03:17] from what I can tell, mksquashfs is like mkisofs, it doesn't create files [03:17] you had said "latest kernels" so i thought -14 would be included [03:17] BenC: it's done on the buildds, which run .12 [03:18] * Updated squashfs to latest CVS. [03:18] I wonder if that can be blamed [03:18] Mithrandir: so maybe debootstrap is at fault? [03:18] Mithrandir: is /dev/null ok in the root where deboostrap creates? [03:19] so if you mount the squashfs under -14, it /dev/null correct? [03:19] if the kernel module is at fault, then the image should be fine, and would work with -14, but not -15 [03:19] maybe the version of mksquashfs used isn't in sync with the squashfs in the kernel [03:19] BenC: correct. [03:19] sn9: shouldn't matter. [03:19] Mithrandir: so you verified that this image works correctly with -14? [03:19] BenC: yes. [03:19] BenC: or at least, /dev/null isn't on crack [03:19] Mithrandir: actually it could matter if they made some whacked change in the filesystem [03:20] well, they do actually version the file systems, so if so it'd still be a bug in the kernel module [03:20] just because it shouldn't doesn't mean it doesn't [03:20] it supports 1.0, 2.0 and 2.1, IIRC. [03:20] ok, I'm booted into -14 on my powerbook, but I have -15 installed [03:20] I'll check into this [03:20] coolie, thanks. [03:21] Mithrandir: no, there was compatibility options in the kernel module that I wasn't sure about [03:21] it's possible that I didn't enable/disable one like I should [03:21] is this holding up cd's? === Mithrandir does a git pull to look at shiny stuff [03:21] yes. [03:21] I'll make it a priority for today then [03:21] thanks [03:21] np [03:22] hey Ben [03:22] how long will you be around? [03:22] hey fabbione [03:22] oh hey BenC.. [03:22] hey zul [03:22] BenC: I? An hour more or so. [03:22] I've been spending the past few days out in my barn working on oopses and breezy->dapper regeressions...will be nice to work inside again :) [03:23] hi zul [03:23] Mithrandir: probably wont be fixed before you leave, but by tomorrow for you :) [03:24] BenC: you are good to pull from me [03:24] BenC: thanks [03:24] BenC: tho it might add a symbol, but don't break the ABI [03:29] fabbione: ok, because I'll want to do a quick upload for this squashfs problem with the ABI bump [03:29] I might just skip the pull to be safe, and do it after the upload [03:30] BenC: if you plan to bump the ABI, it would be good to check OCFS2 and import bug fixes [03:30] i didn't get that far [03:30] the pull is safe.. [03:30] but up to you [03:30] just don't wait long, there is also that security fix in it [03:31] ok [03:31] rebooting to -15, squashfs looked good under -14 === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-kernel === doko [n=doko@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-kernel === lamont-away [n=lamont@mix.mmjgroup.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel === j_ack [n=nico@p508D8CCB.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [04:49] Mithrandir: fixed [04:49] uploading soon [04:50] I would strongly suggest that you update squashfs tools from CVS [04:57] oh, why? We're in UVF. [04:59] it's not a requirement, just a strong suggestion :) [04:59] the new code isn't being used if you use the v2 tools [04:59] not sure what benefits the new code holds, but it may fix some problems [05:00] maybe you can test with both and see if it helps/hurts? especially on ppc where we have oopses === doko [n=doko@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [05:32] I still don't have a workable ppc. :-) [05:54] later === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [07:29] BenC: speaking of unionfs powerpc oopses, I've sent you an email regarding some potential assistance there [07:55] BenC: ack? === CataEnry [n=Enrico@host1-59.pool873.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [08:08] mdz: ok [08:09] mdz: what's the subject of the email, I don't see it [08:10] Subject: [jeremy@au1.ibm.com: Re: Thanks - and guest access card] [08:11] heh, I might have deleted that as spam considering the subject, can you resend? [08:12] sent again [08:12] thanks === _ace [n=ace@63.245.44.11] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [09:32] <_ace> !help [09:33] <_ace> hi [09:33] <_ace> have some questions about make-kpkg [09:33] <_ace> specifically how to change the name of the kernel [09:34] <_ace> and later also questions about build-kernelpackage [09:34] what do you mean "name"? [09:35] <_ace> I made a kernel with make-kpkg and the deb is named kernel-image-2.6.11_2.6.11-0.2_i386.deb [09:35] <_ace> (I know, it's old, I have reasons though) [09:35] so what name would you like it to be? [09:36] probably linux-image [09:36] <_ace> Something like kernel-image-2.6.11-w4l-686-smp-megaraid.deb [09:36] <_ace> sn9 [09:36] <_ace> linux or kernel, there's a whole stoy behind that! want me to tell ya ? [09:36] --append_to_version=-w4l-686-smp-megaraid [09:37] for s/kernel/linux/ do --stem=linux [09:37] <_ace> ah [09:37] <_ace> that's 'stem' about thank you. [09:38] not sure where stem came from, but we set it to linux [09:38] <_ace> will the append-version get rid of the '_2.6.11-0.2_i386' part [09:38] I think the head is that it can be --stem=bsd at some point [09:38] the 2.6.11-0.2 part is the version [09:38] or revision to be more exact [09:39] all of this is covered in make-kpkg(1) [09:39] and you wont be able to get rid of the _i386 part, that's a dpkg-deb thing, you don't want to mess with it [09:40] in your first example, linux-image-2.6.11 is the package name, 2.6.11-0.2 is the version+revision, and i386 is the architecture [09:41] <_ace> okay Ill play with that a bit more [09:41] <_ace> for reference, just chek http://www.suares.an/?page_id=28 [09:42] if you change the package name (--append_to_version), it will change the package name and the version+revision [09:42] <_ace> it also explains the reason I went for the 2.6.11 kernel [09:42] <_ace> However, in a wiki i read that you can do apt-get source linux-2.6.8.1 [09:42] <_ace> but that gives an error [09:43] <_ace> you can only do that for 2.6.12 [09:43] <_ace> why is that not possible for 2.6.11 ? [09:43] <_ace> also, the only place I found the 2.6.11 kernel with debian patches [09:44] <_ace> is http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/l/linux-source-2.6.11/ [09:44] <_ace> there are three files (orig, diff and dsc) and I can finally (after some days of toying around [09:44] <_ace> ) [09:44] <_ace> make a kernel from that. [09:44] it all depends on your sources.list [09:44] because we never shipped a 2.6.11 kernel [09:45] <_ace> BenC: aha ! thx for the clarification! [09:45] it was a development package, not really supported [09:45] <_ace> now this kernel that I found [09:45] <_ace> which *version* is that [09:45] <_ace> 2.6.11.7 ? [09:45] <_ace> or some even older one ? [09:45] no idea to be honest, It was before my time here :) [09:45] probably older [09:45] <_ace> heh [09:45] <_ace> thought so [09:46] <_ace> You know the whole problem would be away [09:46] <_ace> if win4lin had had a patch for 2.6.12 that *does* include smp support [09:46] <_ace> but that is not the case [09:46] <_ace> that cost me a lot of time [09:46] <_ace> win4lin distributes generic kernels [09:46] <_ace> with 2.6.8.1 [09:46] the 2.6.11 patch doesn't apply to 2.6.12? [09:47] <_ace> and it doesn't boot on my machine since it misses the megaraid [09:47] <_ace> drivers.. [09:47] <_ace> eh.. [09:47] <_ace> i haven't tried [09:47] and if not, have you tried manually fixing the failed hunks of diff? [09:47] you should try [09:47] <_ace> but i figured why they publish a patch for 2.6.12 that has no smp support [09:47] just because they say 2.6.11, doesn't mean it wont work with 2.6.12 [09:47] <_ace> if it were that easy... [09:47] <_ace> guess i should try that... [09:47] probably because the 2.6.11 patch applied cleanly to 2.6.12? :) [09:48] <_ace> would be very strange [09:48] I'd give it a go, if you get a couple of .rej's you can clean them up by hand usually [09:48] <_ace> http://www.win4lin.com/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,76/func,select/id,4/ [09:48] <_ace> they *do* have a patch, if the 2.6.11 worked, why make a 2.6.12 patch with no smp support ? [09:49] <_ace> 2.6.13 doesn't have smp support [09:49] <_ace> en at 2.6.14.3 suddenly it's back === _ace mind boggles... [09:50] just making suggestions, I've no idea what might or might not happen with it [09:50] <_ace> good idea though, I might try that. [09:50] <_ace> still, in the end I want a *real* ubuntu kernel [09:50] <_ace> so now I learned about dpatch [09:50] <_ace> heh [09:51] <_ace> and build-kernelpackage (or whatever that command is called) failed miserably with the 2.6.11 [09:51] <_ace> stuff and now I know why :-( [09:51] <_ace> I'll go off and try some stuff now... brb... [09:52] <_ace> thanks so far... [10:18] BenC: any idea when the kernel update will be out that'll fix megaraid?
