crimsunPetaris: sure it does.12:05
crimsunyou need to remove the linux-source-2.6.15 directory and re-extract the linux-source-2.6.15 tarball12:05
Petariswhy?  It was a fresh extract in the first place?12:06

PetarisWhile compiling a kernel for my system using the linux-source package and a slightly modified i386 config file I have run into an error: http://phpfi.com/11602002:02

zulheylo02:07
PetarisHello zul02:07
BenCPetaris: you've slightly broken your modified config02:28
BenCCONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 isn't set, which is how set_64bit gets set02:28
PetarisBenC: I didn't change anything other then 64 GB mem support and amp02:35
BenCamp?02:35
Petariss/amp/smp02:35
BenCthe -server kernel and -server-bigiron kernel has those options enabled02:36
BenCwhat config did you modify?02:36
Petaristhe -server kernel brings my box to a crawl for some reason02:36
PetarisI modified the 2.6.15-21-i386 config02:36
BenCmakes sure you set the CPU to something other than 486 too02:37
Petarisoh?02:37
BenClike P4 or whatever it is you are using02:37
PetarisOpteron02:37
Petarisbut I need a 32bit system02:37
BenCwhy not use an amd64 kernel then?02:37
Petarisfor ltsp compatability02:37
BenCyou can use an amd64 kernel with a 32-bit userspace02:38
Petarisany downfalls to doing so?02:38
infinityThe occasional syscall that gets out of sync, but we'd like bug reports on those so we can fix them anyway.02:38
infinity(In general, it should work great)02:38
Petarishrm02:38
Petaristhis is a production box02:39
BenCthe only ioctl's I'm aware of that aren't translated are the usblp ones02:39
infinityPetaris: There you go.  Ben's the man.02:39
infinityIn other news, scientists wonder why you need a 32-bit userspace for "LTSP compatibility".02:40
PetarisCan I switch over to the amd64 kernel without ditching my install thus far?02:40
BenCyep02:40
infinityAn LTSP server can serve to multiple architectures.02:40
Petarisinfinity: thats what was recomended by ogra in #edubuntu02:40
infinityOh.02:40
infinityCould be a limitation of the way we package LTSP to make it as friendly as possible, then.02:40
infinityI'll shut up. :)02:41
BenCis this an LTSP server, or client?02:41
Petarisserver02:41
Petaristhe clients are x8602:41
BenCnot sure why the server architecture matters then, but ok :)02:41
Petaristhe server is a dual opteron with 8 GB of ram02:41
infinityOh, dude, then you DEFINITELY want an amd64 kernel on there.02:41
BenCyeah02:41
PetarisBenC: I don't know enough about it, so I take ogra's advice02:42
infinityYou're just wasting the hardware otherwise.02:42
BenCPetaris: hold a second....02:42
Petarisok02:42
BenCPetaris: download an amd64-k8 kernel .deb02:42
BenCand follow these instructions carefully...02:42
Petariswhere can I grab the kernel from?02:43
Petarisjust apt-get it?02:43
BenCdpkg-deb --extract linux-image-2.6.15-22-amd64-k8_2.6.15-22.33_amd64.deb tmp02:43
BenCdpkg-deb --control linux-image-2.6.15-22-amd64-k8_2.6.15-22.33_amd64.deb tmp/DEBIAN02:43
BenCvi tmp/DEBIAN/control02:43
BenCreplace Architecture: amd64 with Architecture: i38602:43
BenCsave, and exist02:43
BenCexit02:43
BenCsudo  dpkg-deb --build tmp .02:44
BenCPetaris: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/02:44
BenCthen you can do: sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.15-22-amd64-k8_2.6.15-22.33_i386.deb02:45
infinityBenC: Is there a valid reason we're not performing this hack and uploading it to the archive?02:46
Petarishrm02:46
infinity(It wouldn't be the only package with .debs in the source... Think ia32-libs, etc)02:46
BenCinfinity: we thought about it, but I haven't tested it enough to know that it is "up to snuff"02:46
PetarisBenC: I can't find that linux-image version02:46

Petarisno 22.3302:47
BenC21.32 is fine02:47
Petarisok02:47
Petarisgrabbing it now02:47
BenCinfinity: oh, I didn't get a chance to do lrm, so if you have an upload, I'll just wait02:47
infinityBenC: But you also didn't get a chance to do the fixed kernel, did you?02:48
infinityBenC: At any rate, I'm not going to upload LRM while Flight-7 is in prep, since that will cause stuff to go out of sync (lrm-common, etc)02:48
Petarisok, doing the build02:51
Petarisok, done02:53
Petarisnow installing02:53
MithrandirBenC: uh, since you didn't upload last night, please hold off any kernel uploads until flight-7 is out.02:54
BenCMithrandir: no problem02:55
PetarisBenC: ok, its installed02:55
Petarislet me reboot into it02:55
BenCgood luck :)02:56

shutdownrunnerHi. I'm trying to install ubuntu under compaq deskpro 350. all the time I'm getting errors. Under dapper I don't know what the problem is "Attempted to kill init ...", but under breezy I get "Acpi : Unable to load system description database" and something about [_SB_]  not to be found. Have you got any ideas what this is? If you could suggest where I could look for a solution, I'd also be grateful.08:44
