[06:24] <davyd> hi all
[06:25] <davyd> I was wondering about building a new linux-restricted-modules with updated nvidia drivers
[06:25] <davyd> I'm not entirely sure how this package ties in with the older nvidia-kernel package
[06:26] <cjb> How lrm does, or how nvidia-glx does?
[06:27] <davyd> in 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 packages
[06:27] <davyd> but nowadays, l-r-m provides nvidia-kernel
[06:28] <crimsun> l-r-m is preferred. nvidia-kernel-source is separate source in multiverse.
[06:29] <davyd> so, if I didn't want to break my tree, knowing this is eventually going to be fixed in Ubuntu
[06:29] <davyd> I would want to build a new l-r-m
[06:29] <davyd> ?
[06:30] <crimsun> I 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 alike
[06:30] <davyd> will it throw out nvidia-glx as well?
[06:31] <crimsun> yes
[06:32] <crimsun> (apt-cache showsrc nvidia-glx)
[06:32] <davyd> aah yes, now I remember why I thought this was wrong, it's a 100M source package
[06:35] <davyd> ok, I'll come back to this once I've done some chores
[06:35] <davyd> it should be down by then
[11:31] <infinity> davyd: I'm building a new LRM now, if you can wait and test my packages.
[02:30] <davyd> infinity ; I can test it
[02:47] <infinity> davyd: Spiffy.  I'll push packages in a bit.  Just have to finish some OO.o mangling first.
[04:41] <[g2] > mjg59 do you have sound working on the Intel macmini ?
[04:42] <mjg59> Not with the built-in speaker, no
[04:42] <[g2] > mjg59 with the audio out ?
[04:42] <mjg59> Try the audio in
[04:43] <[g2] > well I"m looking to build/boot a custom kernel
[04:43] <[g2] > the 2nd processor is item number one
[04:43] <[g2] > sound could be item number 2
[04:45] <mjg59> You don't need a custom kernel for the first, and there is currently no working kernel for sound
[04:52] <[g2] > mjg59 how do I enable SMP for i386 ?
[04:52] <[g2] > with the latest dapper
[04:54] <mjg59> apt-get install linux-image-686
[04:55] <[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] <mjg59> Everything should work with the exception of ACPI
[04:55] <[g2] > I'll double check the linux-image-686 but I'm running a remastered livecd
[04:55] <[g2] > I think that kernel is in a different spot
[04:56] <[g2] > Ok so everything, but sound and ACPI should work with the 686 kernel ?
[04:57] <mjg59> Yes
[05:04] <[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 /boot
[05:05] <mjg59> And the modules
[05:05] <mjg59> But I really don't know
[05:06] <[g2-build] > Ok
[05:06] <[g2-build] > mjg59: thx
[05:06] <[g2-build] > mjg59: is anyone working on the ACPI stuff ?
[05:56] <crimsun> [g2-build] : there are sound fixes for the macmini upstream in hg alsa-kernel
[05:57] <crimsun> [g2-build] : http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-kernel?cmd=changeset;node=14772d35b9a64e07d703c9eaac0d34fca76d87eb;style=gitweb
[05:58] <mjg59> crimsun: Ah. Including speaker support?
[05:59] <crimsun> mjg59: no idea, I don't have hardware to test :-)
[05:59] <mjg59> Ok, checking the patch, it seems not (a friend has been playing with that code)
[06:06] <[g2-build] > crimsun: THX. 
[06:31] <kimo> Hi, 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?
[06:33] <kimo> I'm asking coz my toshiba laptop still wont power off, & it seems it's not gonna get fixed for the dapper release
[06:33] <kimo> thought I'd compare the source code, with Suse's, which works great (not that I'm close to being a kernel developper) :)
[06:57] <[g2-build] > kimo: shutdown
[06:57] <[g2-build] > kimo: j/k... 
[06:57] <[g2-build] > I'd guess that either APM or APCI functions handle it
[06:58] <[g2-build] > ACPI
[07:05] <[g2-build] > bbl
[07:13] <kimo> oh well, in which file ??
[07:18] <infinity> pm_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.
[07:23] <kimo> thnx .. seems the core is acpi_enter_sleep_state
[10:29] <infinity> davyd: Still around, dude?
