crimsunmjg59: ok, thanks02:12
mjg59crimsun: So it's not PCI configuration space, and it's not an AC97 register issue, so...02:13

dokoBenC: is the mISDN update missing in the last kernel upload?05:01
BenCyeah, I needed to get some important fixes out, and mISDN merge isn't trivial05:02
=== psusi [n=phreak@54.161.205.68.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
psusiI'm trying to learn git since it's used by the kernel... am I correct in understanding that it stores copies of every version of a given file, rather than diffs?  so it's going to use a LOT of space?07:27

fabbioneso it seems04:19
fabbionenow.. i would like to have a word with Scott04:19
BenCyeah, that is definitely a udev issue, probably the same one I see in another bug report04:19
BenCI think udev has a well disguised race or ordering problem04:20
fabbioneprobably..04:20
fabbioneudev is a problem04:20

Mithrandirit's a sparse file, but I assumed that was what you wanted.05:16
=== visik7 [n=visi@unaffiliated/visik7] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
visik7I can't understand how the ubuntu kernel works, it's heavily different from a vanilla kernel05:51
visik7anyone can explain me it ?05:59
=== BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
mjg59visik7: What do you mean by "Heavily different"?06:39
visik7for example it check if gcc is 3.406:39
visik7vanilla kernels doesn't do it06:39
mjg59Sorry, what checks if gcc is 3.4?06:40
visik7make 06:40
mjg59When?06:41
visik7wait a moment06:41
visik7removed kernel tree for erro06:43
visik7I need some time to redownload it06:44
visik7here I'm07:01
visik7http://pastebin.com/56297107:02
visik7here07:02
visik7says gcc-3.4 not found07:02
visik7why check if gcc-3.4 is present ?07:03
visik7a 2.6.15.4 works perfectly with gcc 407:03
visik7and make menuconfig of this source is quite different from a 2.6.12 vanilla (I know that there are patches)  07:04
visik7I know that there are patches but I don't understand why networking options is inside device drivers -> network support like old 2.4 kernels 07:13
visik7and why there are so many way to get kernel source ?07:22
visik7linux-source-2.6.1207:22
visik7linux-tree-2.6.12-10.2807:22
visik7apt-get source linux-image-2.6.12-10...07:23
visik7things aren't so clear07:23
mjg59Because 2.6.12 didn't work properly with gcc 407:26
visik7your or the vanilla ?07:27
mjg59Any07:27
mjg59Not on all the architectures we support07:27
visik7oh07:27
visik7ok07:27
mjg592.6.15 is built with gcc 407:27

ryskhello,07:43
ryskI wonder what's that chan is for ? I mean what's mean "ubuntu kernel discussion ONLY". If I'm coding a driver under ubuntu (while it's just a linux driver anyway) is that part of the subject ?07:46
mjg59rysk: It's more for development of the Ubuntu kernel rather than kernel development under Ubuntu (if you see what I mean)07:51
mjg59No harm in asking here, though, the worst that can happen is that you'll be ignored :)07:51
ryskok :) I'm just trying to get my graphical tablet working. Since it's recognized as an usb mouse, the driver i've made don't get to handle the tablet unless i'm forcefully unload the usbhid module. Well if anyone knows enough to tell me what to do i will be pleased to hear it :)07:54
mjg59Hm. It identifies as a mouse?07:54
ryskyeah, that's actually quite strange because the data sent by the tablet is not at the same format of the ones sent by a mouse07:55
ryskbut the hid interface protocol is set to 2 (mouse)07:56
mjg59Sounds like the hardware is broken...08:03
mjg59Might be possible to add a quirk to the mouse driver to refuse to bind to it08:04
ryskwell actually i was more thinking of detaching the mouse driver from it08:05
mjg59If the mouse driver can't drive it, it's better for it never to bind it08:05
ryskThe hardware isn't broken. I guess it's just the vendor who said "Oh, yes, we use it like a mouse so it's a mouse !"08:05
ryskwell that's true08:06
mjg59Stuff that claims to be a mouse ought to speak the mouse protocol08:06
ryskactually it implements a very close protocol08:06
ryskbut since it absolute position and not relative position and it's have a pressure intensity, it's just put more info in the message08:07
ryskAlso that's fun because it doesn't reply to any input report asking. It's just said "TABLET"08:07
ryskI bet it speaks the mouse protocol for the version with a magnetic mouse08:08
visik7how can I compile only a module of the kernel without rerun all make modules that it's huge ?08:10
mjg59visik7: With 2.6.12? You can't.08:10
ryskmake module.ko ?08:11
mjg59With newer kernels, just make patch/to/module.ko08:11
visik7:(08:11
visik7ok thanks08:11
mjg59rysk: Take a look at hid_blacklist in hid-core.c - best bet is probably just to add it to there, and then bind it with your driver08:14
ryskok thanks08:15
mjg59You'll need to send that patch to LKML to get it added08:16
ryskyes, I need to make my tablet works fine before that :)08:18
