[12:09] <CarlFK> why does /lib/firmware/2.6.15-22-386 have an acx dir but /lib/firmware/2.6.15-22-686 doesn't ?
[12:10] <CarlFK> 2 day old dapper box
[12:48] <BenC> because you don't have linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-686 installed
[12:48] <BenC> you can recitfy that by installing linux-686
[12:49] <CarlFK> hmm... i wonder how the 386 ones got installed...
[12:50] <CarlFK> thanks
[04:17] <zul> hey
[04:21] <CarlFK> oats
[05:31] <BenC> airlied: ping
[05:32] <zul> hey BenC 
[05:32] <BenC> hey zul
[05:32] <zul> what are you doing up?
[05:33] <BenC> playing poker online
[05:33] <zul> hehe
[05:34] <zul> im just waiting for the daily show to come on
[06:27] <airlied> BenC: pong, I have a patch ready if you want it.. vs ubuntu-2.6 master..
[06:27] <BenC> yes, defnitely
[06:27] <BenC> bcollins@ubuntu.com, please
[06:37] <airlied> BenC: done.
[06:37] <airlied> I have to say git cherry-pick rocks..
[06:37] <airlied> made that task quite simple..
[06:37] <desrt> BenC; word.
[06:38] <desrt> BenC; how goes the ppc64 hugepage testing?
[06:38] <BenC> airlied: hell yes it does...
[06:38] <BenC> desrt: hey, gotta wait till tomorrow to test it (my G5 belongs to the wife)
[06:38] <desrt> that's cool
[06:39] <desrt> i have a cluster of machines i could let you test it on :p

[06:22] <[g2] > mjg59_ If running only dapper on the intel mac mini can I just install elilo and have it boot to dapper ?
[06:23] <mjg59_> As long as you're not using the bios emulation, yes
[06:23] <[g2] > mjg59_ I've got bootcamp installed does that cause the bios emulation ?
[06:24] <mjg59_> It depends how you're booting it
[06:24] <[g2] > basically I've installed from the Livecd and used the whole disk
[06:24] <mjg59_> Then no, you can't trivially install elilo
[06:24] <mjg59_> If you have a /sys/firmware/efi directory, you can
[06:24] <[g2] > right now it's booting to grub and dying
[06:26] <[g2] > mjg59_ what's the best way to get elilo on there ?
[08:47] <infinity> BenC: Still around?
[08:48] <BenC> yeah
[08:48] <infinity> An interesting point was just raised on the -users list (yeah, I know, whoah)
[08:49] <infinity> Since we now build all our i386/amd64 kernels SMP (except for -386), rtc really shouldn't be modular, since not having it loaded blows up ntp/hwclock/etc.
[08:54] <infinity> In general, udev seems to load it automagically on most systems anyway, but the user on -users didn't have it loaded until he explicitely loaded it, and ntp was failing for him as a result.
[08:55] <infinity> kernel.org upstream has (for eons) recommended that CONFIG_SMP=y always be accompanied by CONFIG_RTC=y
[08:58] <BenC> Ok, I can do that
[08:58] <infinity> May as well keep it a module on the -386 kernel for the pathological case where it might break one RTC in a million on some ancient system.
[08:59] <infinity> But all the SMP kernels should definitely have it on.
[09:01] <BenC> so that's all of amd64, and all of i386 except -386
[09:05] <infinity> Should be, yes.
[09:06] <infinity> Meh... 5am... Maybe I should just cook myself some food and stay up.
