davydhi all06:24
davydI was wondering about building a new linux-restricted-modules with updated nvidia drivers06:25
davydI'm not entirely sure how this package ties in with the older nvidia-kernel package06:25
cjbHow lrm does, or how nvidia-glx does?06:26
davydin the old days, I know I could get nvidia-kernel-source, replace what I wanted to and run make-kpkg over it, and I would get useful packages06:27
davydbut nowadays, l-r-m provides nvidia-kernel06:27
crimsunl-r-m is preferred. nvidia-kernel-source is separate source in multiverse.06:28
davydso, if I didn't want to break my tree, knowing this is eventually going to be fixed in Ubuntu06:29
davydI would want to build a new l-r-m06:29
davyd?06:29
crimsunI should clarify that to read, build a new l-r-m-2.6.15, since it provides binaries for l-r-m-$(uname -r) and nvidia-kernel-source alike06:30
davydwill it throw out nvidia-glx as well?06:30
crimsunyes06:31
crimsun(apt-cache showsrc nvidia-glx)06:32
davydaah yes, now I remember why I thought this was wrong, it's a 100M source package06:32
davydok, I'll come back to this once I've done some chores06:35
davydit should be down by then06:35

[g2] mjg59 do you have sound working on the Intel macmini ?04:41
mjg59Not with the built-in speaker, no04:42
[g2] mjg59 with the audio out ?04:42
mjg59Try the audio in04:42
[g2] well I"m looking to build/boot a custom kernel04:43
[g2] the 2nd processor is item number one04:43
[g2] sound could be item number 204:43
mjg59You don't need a custom kernel for the first, and there is currently no working kernel for sound04:45
[g2] mjg59 how do I enable SMP for i386 ?04:52
[g2] with the latest dapper04:52
mjg59apt-get install linux-image-68604:54
[g2] mjg59 is there a place for status on the different devices like the Atheros wifi, BT, ACPI etc.. or is here (meaning you) :)04:55
mjg59Everything should work with the exception of ACPI04:55
[g2] I'll double check the linux-image-686 but I'm running a remastered livecd04:55
[g2] I think that kernel is in a different spot04:55
[g2] Ok so everything, but sound and ACPI should work with the 686 kernel ?04:56
mjg59Yes04:57
=== [g2-build] [n=tom@cpe-066-057-008-035.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
[g2-build] mjg59: Ok so just copy over the vmlinuz and initrd to the /install dir on the livecd to run that 686 kernel ?05:04
[g2-build] the vmlinuz and initrd from /boot05:04

mjg59And the modules05:05
mjg59But I really don't know05:05
[g2-build] Ok05:06
[g2-build] mjg59: thx05:06
[g2-build] mjg59: is anyone working on the ACPI stuff ?05:06

crimsun[g2-build] : there are sound fixes for the macmini upstream in hg alsa-kernel05:56
crimsun[g2-build] : http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-kernel?cmd=changeset;node=14772d35b9a64e07d703c9eaac0d34fca76d87eb;style=gitweb05:57
mjg59crimsun: Ah. Including speaker support?05:58
crimsunmjg59: no idea, I don't have hardware to test :-)05:59
mjg59Ok, checking the patch, it seems not (a friend has been playing with that code)05:59
[g2-build] crimsun: THX. 06:06

kimoHi, can someone please tell me which function gets called, that is actualy responsible for flipping off my laptop's power switch, when I am turning off my laptop?06:31
kimoI'm asking coz my toshiba laptop still wont power off, & it seems it's not gonna get fixed for the dapper release06:33
kimothought I'd compare the source code, with Suse's, which works great (not that I'm close to being a kernel developper) :)06:33

[g2-build] kimo: shutdown06:57
[g2-build] kimo: j/k... 06:57
[g2-build] I'd guess that either APM or APCI functions handle it06:57
[g2-build] ACPI06:58
[g2-build] bbl07:05
kimooh well, in which file ??07:13
infinitypm_power_off, which will either be acpi_power_off from drivers/acpi/sleep/poweroff.c or apm_power_off from arch/i386/kernel/apm.c, depending on whether you use APM or ACPI by default.07:18
kimothnx .. seems the core is acpi_enter_sleep_state07:23
