ubijtsaKeybuk: I have just raised a defect on Dapper Flight4 - #32097, you may want to take a quick look when you have time..11:02
Keybukubijtsa: you're probably booting the wrong kernel11:04
ubijtsaKeybuk: Hmm..11:04

purpleideais it fair game to ask questions about how to get an smp kernel working on a new duo core problem, or should i leave those questions to a different forum?01:17
mjg59purpleidea: What doesn't work?01:25
purpleideaseems a lot of people are having a problem with this laptop, just came out, inspiron 9400; originally would freeze just before gdm loads, but after x was loaded, now doesn't even boot too far past grub (since an upgrade)01:27
purpleideai have more comprehensive details if you want.01:28
purpleideaor if this isn't the place, please tell me where i can figure it out, i've been looking everywhere, and a lot of people have similar problems, as per hardware wiki, etc.01:29
mjg59Well, it certainly sounds like a bug01:35
mjg59What are you trying to boot?01:35
purpleideaabsolutely. especially since the smp kernel "just works" right after install in fedora401:35
mjg59Is this Breezy or Dapper?01:42
purpleideaoriginally breezy did the up until gdm thing, and dapper now is the stops right after grub. it says: can't find /dev/sda5 although it's there and the non smp boots01:43
mjg59Hmm. We don't ship non-SMP kernels, do we?01:44
mjg59Or do you mean booting with nosmp?01:44
purpleideanope, you seem to ship non smp, because it installed as the default, before the internet was even up01:44
Mithrandirthat changes in dapper01:45
purpleideai had to get the smp one with synaptic, which isn't working :(01:45
Mithrandirdapper doesn't have non-smp kernels01:45
mjg59We ship smp kernels only now01:45
mjg59Then they get rewritten into non-smp ones on single processor systems01:45
purpleideawell that's good then. from what i understand intel will eventually mostly stop making single core anyways... esp. since a quad is expected. in any case..01:46
mjg59So does a dapper install CD boot?01:46
purpleideai installed originally off of a breezy cd, and upgraded breezy through synaptic from a dapper f3 cd. i haven't actually run the installer if thats what you're asking01:48
purpleideapresently downloading flight4 in the odd chance anything will work better.01:48
mjg59Ok01:48

BenCwhat is it?06:23
Mithrandirhttp://www.redhat.com/magazine/005mar05/features/kprobes/ has some info on it06:23

fabbioneBenC: are you aware of any problem with tg3 driver on 4xGE broadcom cards on SUN v210 ?07:28
fabbioneBenC: with .12 it seems broken07:28

fabbioneBenC: could you be so kind to do a fast search for me?07:29
fabbionewhile i keep going with .15?07:29
BenConly thing I see is a problem with Debian when they removed the tg3 firmware07:32
fabbionewe do have the firware07:32
BenCright, which should mean that there is no problem :)07:34
BenCthere are some workarounds for sun in tg307:35
fabbionesuch as?07:35
BenCmaybe look at enabling disabling for this particular hardware07:35
BenCwhether or not to call into eeprom07:35
BenCis the device coming up, but just not transfering packets, or is there some failure message?07:36
fabbioneit comes up07:36
fabbionei can netboot07:36
fabbioneso there is network wirewise 07:36
fabbionei can't get packets in/out after i do ifup the iface07:36
BenCthe ordering of the devices in linux may not be the same as with OBP, so make sure you are using the right one07:36
fabbionewe did try all of them07:37
fabbionemoving the cable from eth0 to eth307:37
BenCany of them show link status?07:37
fabbioneyes the 2 i configured07:37
BenCso they show "LInk at 1000Mbs Full Duplex" or whatever?07:37
fabbioneyes07:38
fabbionethat's OBP tho07:38
BenCand connecting/disconnecting the cable causes link up/down to occur?07:38
fabbionenot to the kernel07:38
BenCno, I mean in Linux07:38
fabbionei saw only one link down/up07:38
fabbioneeven if elmo did plug/8unplug a lot07:39
BenCbring all the interfaces up, then connect/disconnect the cable and see what happens07:39
fabbioneeh07:39
fabbioneif elmo is still at the DC07:39
fabbionelet me see07:39
fabbionei can only see one module param for tg3.. that's debugging07:40
fabbionei wonder if we are using #if defined(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q) || defined(CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q_MODULE)07:45
fabbionethat might change something07:45

Puggetciao-  would anyone be willing to help a ubuntu (and debian) newbie compile the new 2.6.15 unbuntu kernel from ftp://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15 ?  everyting compiles and then dpkg-gencontrol bombs with "error: package kernel-headers-2.6.15.4-ubuntu1 not in control info"07:55
fabbioneBenC: david says that it might be a known problem.. he is already fixing it :)07:57
Puggetsweet :-)07:57
fabbionePugget: sweet? 07:58
Puggetfabbione: oops, mis-interpreted the last message as if it were in reponse to my question, nm07:59
fabbionePugget: no.08:00
BenCPugget: apt-get install linux-source-2.6.1508:00
BenCdon't use the tarball from there08:00
fabbioneafter almost 16 hours in the day i don't have time for that :)08:00
BenCfabbione: BTW, my last kernel upload to fix ppc ftbfs was a little pointless since the ppc buildd's are down :/08:01
fabbionehow so?08:01
BenCaccording to Kinnison, one has dead disk, and the other just isn't responding08:01
fabbioneSCORE08:01
PuggetBenC: what should I stick in my sources.list so I have that package?08:01
fabbioneand i am booting slowlaris :/08:01
BenCPugget: uh, the default deb lines08:02
BenCit's in dapper main08:02
PuggetBenC: okay08:03
BenCand if you are trying to do this on breezy, and install it on breezy, you are asking for trouble08:03
PuggetBenC: figured as much - I just typed "upgrade dapper" into google...08:04

zulfabbione: you are so smart..09:27
fabbionei know :)09:28
