infinityBenC: ipw firmware version bump bit you and you're FTBFS.12:58
mjg59BenC: If you need to reupload, any chance you can add that imacfb patch? :)01:04
mjg59BenC: (But drop the efivars one)01:04
mjg59Ooh, cool!01:04
mjg59On that boot, my framebuffer came out as a tiny strip down the right-hand side of the screen...01:05

mjg59Whoops. That's because it's cut off the trailing "2" from the width01:06
cjbmjg59: Any idea who from Canonical is showing up at LinuxWorld in Boston?01:24
mjg59Nope01:26
cjb'kay.01:26
mjg59BenC: Did I send you the ipw3945 patch?03:01
infinityBenC: Before uploading again, can you also apply the top two patches from http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/#patches if you haven't already?03:07
infinityBenC: I suspect the ipw2200 update will be pretty B-R-O-K-E-N without them. :)03:07

zulah...heh :)03:02
fabbiones(n)if u?03:03
fabbioneBenC: davem had a couple of fixes for us.. if you need to reupload can you please pull from him?03:03
BenCyeah, I'll be uploading in about 30 minutes03:04

dokoBenC: does this upload include the hd-powerdown fix? ;-)03:54
BenCno :)03:55
BenCIt's a bit complicated, but it will get done03:56
BenCjust want to make sure I don't break anything03:56

mjg59BenC: Thanks for getting that patch in04:48
BenCnp04:48
mjg59BenC: Need to sort out ipw3945 at some stage04:49
BenCyeah, I'm hoping to have that in for next upload04:49
BenCneed to do the lrm parts aswell04:49
mjg59Adam's happy enough with that, I think04:50
mxpxpodmjg59: are you working on pmi?05:08
mjg59On pmi? Not really.05:09
mjg59Why?05:09
mxpxpodmjg59: well, I just noticed they took the pbbuttonsd dependency out of it, which kind of messes some things up05:09
mxpxpodlike if you have the trackpad set to notap, when you come back from a sleep, it's back to tap05:10
mjg59Oh, right. That needs to be special-cased.05:10
mjg59Ideally in the kernel, but, well05:10
mxpxpodand none of the pbbuttonsd scripts get called anymore either05:10
mjg59No, they shouldn't05:10
mjg59Some stuff needs fixing up to be generic, but pbbuttonsd is basically superceded now05:11
mxpxpodok05:11
mxpxpodis ubuntu going to get a way to set powersave mode?05:11
mxpxpodbecause I had that set up in my pbbuttonsd scripts05:11

mjg59What precisely is powersave mode?05:12
mxpxpodmjg59: I had it set up to use the powersave governor when my laptop was on battery05:13
mxpxpodit extended the time of my battery about a half hour to an hour depending on what I was doing05:13
mjg59mxpxpod: Uhm. But only by increasing the time it took to do anything, right?05:13
mxpxpodnot really05:13
mjg59Our cpufreq setup will run the CPU at the lowest speed unless load increases05:14
mxpxpodis powernowd still required?05:14
mjg59Yes05:14
mxpxpodand does cpufreq compliment that?05:14
mjg59cpufreq is the kernel side of that05:14
mxpxpodoh, another question... is gnome going to get the ability to set the brightness of a ppc machine?05:16
mxpxpodlcd brightness, that is05:16
mjg59That should already work with g-p-m05:16
mjg59If it doesn't, then we need to fix hal05:16
mxpxpodright, but if I use the brightness up/down buttons, I don't get a little dialog05:16
mjg59Yeah, it would be good if we had that05:16
mxpxpodbecause I think that's the last thing that relies on pbbuttonsd05:17
mjg59Should be easy enough to add to g-p-m or gnome-settings-daemon05:17
mxpxpodmjg59: I think it's actually patched out05:17
mjg59It's just the dialog that's missing, the brightness changes happily?05:17
mxpxpodyeah, the brightness changes thru pbbuttonsd05:17
mjg59But we don't have pbbuttonsd now05:17
mxpxpodit's still required by ubuntu-desktop05:17
mxpxpodat least as of last night05:18
mjg59Ah. Could you file a bug on that?05:18
mjg59I'm fairly sure that's wrong05:18
mxpxpodyeah, in a couple of hours...05:18
mxpxpodmjg59: ok... also, when you come back from sleep, the sound is muted as well05:19
mxpxpodmjg59: oh, and regarding powersave... it would be nice if g-p-m had a choice of whether to use full processor strength on battery or not05:19
mjg59mxpxpod: I'm still not sure why that gives any real benefits05:24
mjg59But yeah, I can sort of understand05:24
makxhmm no new initramfs-tools on packages.u.c05:43
=== makx is curious about the serious bugs inifinity spoke about
zulso uh...when are we going to have 2.6.16 in dapper..:)06:23
fabbionezul: i am not sure you want .16 in dapper06:25
fabbionetoo much new stuff..06:25
fabbioneit will take at least .17 and .18 to stabilize06:25
zulyeah i was just joking06:25
fabbioneyeah but i had the same idea :)06:25
fabbionejust uplaod .16 with .15 name06:25
BenCsweet, ibm is going to include our three -server kernels in the ABAT system07:04
zulabat?07:06
cjbDude, everyone knows about the Accelerated Badger and Tortoise system.07:10
BenCAutomated Build And Testing07:12
BenCthey'll test build our kernels, boot them and run some test suites (stress and LTP for now)07:12
BenChoping to get the results sent to kernel-team@l.u.c07:13

=== lamont thanks BenC for relieving him of the need to moderate kernel-{bugs,team}
BenChehe, I didn't really want to take over moderation :)07:23
lamontheh07:23
lamontif you send me the passwd again, I'll moderate some more07:23
BenCI don't know the password07:25
BenCor did you send it to me?07:25
BenCif so, I can take it over (no problem for me)07:25
lamontthe one I thought it was, it isn't...  so now I have to figure out what's going on...07:36
lamontgimme some time07:36
BenCok07:36
lamontsigh... firefox over ssh... I wish I knew how to remotely dump the saved passwords07:38
BenCI forget how I did that the last time07:39
lamontwell, firing up firefox and clicking buttons works.. it just hurts07:40
lamontBenC: do you know what address the mail will be coming from?07:45
BenC*.ibm.com is all I know07:46
