airlied | do you guys have pre-built kernels for Intel Pentium D + SMP? | 08:02 |
infinity | airlied: In theory, the -686 kernel should be the right thing, there. | 08:20 |
infinity | airlied: Our 686 kernels do SMP/UP switching on the fly, through some dirty trickery. | 08:20 |
infinity | airlied: "apt-get install linux-686" for the minimum fuss (this is on dapper, of course... On breezy or earlier, you probably want linux-686-smp) | 08:22 |
airlied | do I need to go to dapper? or does breezy work? | 08:23 |
airlied | ah thx.. | 08:23 |
airlied | nope that doesn't work on breeszy I might just upgrade to dapper anyways.. | 08:23 |
infinity | It will only work if you have restricted in your sources.list... | 08:24 |
infinity | If you don't give a hoot about resitrcted modules, then "apt-get install linux-image-686-smp" instead (which should come from "main") | 08:24 |
infinity | (linux-FLAVOR depends on linux-image-FLAVOUR and linux-restricted-modules-FLAVOUR to make sure you always have both in sync, should you actually be using the latter) | 08:25 |
infinity | LRM includes stuff like madwifi, nvidia and fglrx kernel components, etc. | 08:25 |
airlied | shouldn't need those then.. | 08:26 |
infinity | Or just upgrade to dapper anyway, cause you're a l33t freedesktop hacker, and you need the latest and greatest anyhow. ;) | 08:26 |
infinity | (and kernel 2.6.15 will set much better with you than 2.6.12, I suspect) | 08:26 |
infinity | s/set/sit/ | 08:26 |
airlied | well at least I might have ethernet with 2.6.15 | 08:27 |
infinity | That would be a good thing. | 08:27 |
Mithrandir | ethernet's supposedly good. | 08:27 |
airlied | yes I've got a USB Ethernet at the moment.. its mostly not good.. | 08:27 |

davekempe | anyone got dapper to install on a sun 4100 or 4200? | 02:01 |
davekempe | the megaraid_sas driver seems to dump a stack trace and not detect any drives for me | 02:01 |
fabbione | davekempe: url to the hw please? | 02:01 |
davekempe | http://www.sun.com/servers/entry/x4100/ | 02:02 |
davekempe | http://www.sun.com/servers/entry/x4200/ | 02:03 |
davekempe | btw, breezy works fine on the next one up, the v40z | 02:03 |
davekempe | but its just megaraid_mm or some older megaraid | 02:04 |
davekempe | not sas | 02:04 |
fabbione | please file a bug on lauchpad.net/malone component linux-source-2.6.15 and add: lspci -vvv to the bug | 02:04 |
fabbione | include also the 2 URL to the hw | 02:05 |
davekempe | no worries. | 02:05 |
fabbione | the megaraid did change a lot between .12 and .15 | 02:05 |
fabbione | but i thing that machine actually uses mptsas | 02:06 |
davekempe | I will try out dapper flight 4 amd64 tomorrow and try get it working | 02:06 |
fabbione | and not megaraid | 02:06 |
fabbione | ok | 02:06 |
fabbione | thanks | 02:06 |
davekempe | i really would like hoary on there though. I will have to make a different installer | 02:06 |
infinity | ... hoary? | 02:07 |
fabbione | why hoary??? | 02:07 |
davekempe | so i don't have to resolve the libc PT_GNU_STACK mess and can use grsec in the kernel | 02:07 |
davekempe | its a server, not much i need has changed between hoary and dapper | 02:07 |
davekempe | (that I can't backport if really really needed) | 02:08 |
Mithrandir | dapper's 9-10 months into the support period, though, so you'll be stuck without security fixes in less than a year. | 02:08 |
mjg59 | Hoary, not dapper | 02:08 |
Mithrandir | uh, true. | 02:09 |
davekempe | yeah, so we have that long to figure out the libc mess one way or another | 02:09 |
davekempe | i really would prefer to not have an executable stack for my purposes | 02:10 |
davekempe | this is what im talking about: http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?t=1152&highlight=debian | 02:12 |
davekempe | its all redhat's fault | 02:14 |
zul | okie dokie | 02:18 |
=== infinity notes that that "glibc mess" is easy to fix in the apps... | ||
zul | whats the program thats a front gui for a tcpdump | 02:27 |

mjg59 | BenC: Are you sure about http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-2.6.git;a=blobdiff;h=99c0ce2a87645bea35ad161d0552b35307d6af0f;hp=f26d819c9ae13c403b904c97e0be34866a32213e;hb=14de3561b1eab87faf8591b667e14e8e93523dac;f=arch/i386/Kconfig ? | 04:06 |
BenC | mjg59: Pretty sure. The default is 1G of user address space, with anything over that as virtual, and ~190Megs is used for kernel related things to manage that, which gives us the ~870 megs of non-highmem we have by default | 04:11 |
BenC | atleast, that's the way I understand it | 04:11 |
BenC | it could be backwards, because the patch I used for it is really confusing | 04:12 |
mjg59 | BenC: No, that's 1G of physical address space, surely? | 04:12 |
BenC | yeah, I think you're right | 04:12 |
mjg59 | The more physical memory the kernel can access, the less address space available to userspace | 04:12 |
BenC | Should change the description | 04:12 |
mjg59 | Yeah | 04:13 |

fabbione | hey guys | 05:19 |
fabbione | BenC: please pull from me again.. more |Viagara love ;) | 05:20 |
BenC | ok :) | 05:20 |
fabbione | BenC: we need silo.. do you think you can make it today? | 05:20 |
fabbione | .10 + the 2 patches | 05:20 |
BenC | Yeah, I can try | 05:21 |
fabbione | thanks | 05:21 |
fabbione | BenC: both .15 UP and SMP have been tested. | 05:22 |
fabbione | BenC: so we are "certified" :) | 05:22 |
BenC | gotta love that :) | 05:24 |
fabbione | oh yeah | 05:26 |
fabbione | that's when we found out a few extra bugs with silo (second patch) and an error in trap/syscall table not being properly alligned | 05:27 |
infinity | BenC: Has anyone whined to you yet about a bunch of ISAPNP (I think it was?) printk's flashing by on boot before usplash kicks in? | 05:29 |
BenC | yeah, I see them too | 05:29 |
BenC | I'm bugging mjg59 about them, since they are his fault :) | 05:29 |
infinity | Yeah, can we get the severity lowered, so they get shut up by "quiet"? | 05:29 |
infinity | Unless they shouldn't be happening at all. | 05:30 |
BenC | they seem to be harmless, so I'll make them quiet | 05:30 |
infinity | Also, has anyone yet requested that we bump up the default size of our ringbuffer a tad? I find it painfully irritating that by the time I boot, "dmesg" doesn't go back to the beginning anymore, cause our boot is so noisy. | 05:31 |
