=== shinmen [n=shinmen@nat1.inalambrica.net]  has joined #ubuntu-ports
=== shinmen cross his fingers while upgrading the U80 to dapper
[03:44] <fabbione> shinmen: it should work. we did test on U80
[03:44] <shinmen> fabbione: Even in desktop stuff?
[03:48] <fabbione> yes
[03:48] <fabbione> you will have only one issue with hald not working
[03:48] <fabbione> otherwise you should be ok
[03:48] <fabbione> IF
[03:48] <fabbione> there are issues starting up nautilus
[03:48] <fabbione> upgrade in a couple of hours
[03:49] <fabbione> i did upload a fix not too long ago, but i am not sure is in the archive yet
[03:51] <shinmen> Will do, thanks.
[03:52] <shinmen> fabbione: BTW, is there a way to run ubuntu for sparc with a 2.4 kernel? I have a problem with my sun blade 100 at home, that to get the audio working, only kernels older than 2.4.23-rc1 (IIRC) work with the trident chip.
[03:53] <shinmen> fabbione: So right know I'm running sarge on it, but without giving crap to debian, it has nothing to do when compared to an ubuntu desktop.
[03:54] <fabbione> nope
[03:54] <fabbione> we don't support 2.4 anymore
=== shinmen curses
[03:55] <shinmen> fabbione: Then I'll have to squash that kernel bug... Thanks.
=== shinmen curses Alan Cox
[03:56] <fabbione> if you can write me down some more details i can ask David Miller
[04:00] <shinmen> fabbione: Shure. In a second.
[04:01] <fabbione> shinmen: send it via email please
[04:02] <shinmen> fabbione: What's your address?
[04:06] <fabbione> fabbione@ubuntu.com 
[06:50] <shinmen> Done with the dist-upgrade... I'll reboot in a couple of minutes. Don't wanna miss the meeting.
[06:51] <fabbione> shinmen: can you please check what version of liboil is installed?
[06:52] <fabbione> dpkg -p liboil0.3 |grep Ver
[06:53] <shinmen> 0.3.7-0ubuntu5
[06:54] <fabbione> ok
[06:54] <fabbione> it should be the good one
[06:55] <shinmen> Great.
[06:55] <fabbione> i just started debugging hald
[06:55] <fabbione> but it might take sometime
[06:55] <fabbione> there are several other libs involved
[06:56] <shinmen> fabbione: Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
[06:56] <fabbione> shinmen: send me a patch with a fix?
[06:57] <shinmen> fabbione: What's wrong with hal?
[06:57] <fabbione> hald dies
[06:57] <fabbione> for some unknown reasons
[06:57] <shinmen> fabbione: I'll look it up after the reboot it done.
[06:57] <fabbione> shinmen: ok..
[06:57] <fabbione> that sounds good
[08:06] <shinmen> fabbione: Damn... X problems. I tried with my old xorg conf, and it failes to load a couple of modules. And if I try an X -configure it fails to load another... Let check what's the deal with that.
[08:07] <shinmen> BTW, hald is running here. It has under it, hald-runner, and under that one, two hald-addon-storage.
[08:10] <shinmen> fabbione: The X -configure thing is the same as http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2006/02/msg00360.html
[08:14] <shinmen> The other modules that fail with my old X conf are bitmap and pcidata. But /usr/lib/xorg/modules/fonts/libbitmap.so exist.  As well as modules/libpcidata.so
[08:17] <shinmen> It also say that it "Couldn't open RGB_DB /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb
[08:19] <shinmen> BTW, Running with a Permedia 2.
[08:30] <shinmen> fabbione: What conf does your U80 has? Video card I meen.
[08:31] <shinmen> fabbione: I also have one of those huge UPA cards that need a binary kernel module to work fast on 3d, but last time I tried it, it's a pain in the ass... even without 3d.
[08:34] <shinmen> Duh, found it. Bad path module at the xorg conf.
[08:35] <shinmen> And I think the reason why X -configure doesn't work, is because this card work with the fb module.
[09:00] <shinmen> fabbione: I got a bit of a problem, I can't install ubuntu-desktop becase a bunch of power related packages can't be installed due to missed deps. Any news on that? Or should I try to fix'em up?
