[01:03] <payrok> i noticed today that preemptible kernel was not enabled by default for the 2.6.12-10-i386 kernel.  I was just wondering what the reasoning might be behind that?  from what i understand i thought it would be a good thing...?
[01:05] <payrok> anyone?

[01:24] <oops12> what actualy is the usage of preemtible kernel...?
[02:24] <infinity> BenC: When do we get our next kernel upload?  I'm dying to put some testing to the ipw2200 version bump.
[03:39] <BenC> infinity: guessing today
[04:01] <makx> infinity my latest initramfs-tolls just got uploaded for todays d-install run, happy if you base your fixes on that.
[08:03] <mjg59> BenC: Two more patches for you
[08:19] <mjg59> BenC: They shouldn't break ABI for anyone (there's a structure change, but since it only matters on IA32 and it couldn't possibly have worked before the change, nobody is using it)
[08:20] <mjg59> Any chance that we could get a build of it in the near future? It's needed in order to make it possible to set up booting on the Macs
[08:24] <fabbione> mjg59: he just uploaded this afteroon
