WebMavenI've filed a serious bug affecting users of Averatec 3200-series laptops. Would anyone here like to take a look?12:24
BenCWebMaven: it's already being looked at12:52
WebMavenBenC: OK. I just figured you said you were off the rest of the weekend.12:54
BenCmost everyone is12:54
infinityWhat weekend?  It's Monday.12:55
BenCaussies and their weird days12:55
infinityHey, I live in the future, man.  THE FUTURE.12:56
infinityWe have flying cars here.12:56
BenCare they powered by kangaroos? :)12:56
WebMavenYou could make a good living export jetpacks.12:56
WebMavenyou know, like ' TO THE PAST.12:56
infinityWebMaven: You can't export to the past.  That's why Australia has a negative GNP.12:56
WebMavenAh, I always wondered about that.12:57
WebMavenyou can import from the future though...12:57
infinityIf you could, you'd have a flying car too.  Do you?12:57
=== infinity stares.
infinityI didn't think so.12:57
WebMavenNo, can't afford the customs.12:57
infinityBenC: How soon after I announce that edgy can build do you want to upload?12:58
infinityBenC: Are you booting on all 6 arches now?12:58
BenCyep, it's building everywhere12:59
BenCand I'm using it on ia64, x86, x86_64 and powerpc without problems12:59
infinityNote that I said "booting". :)12:59
BenChppa is a binutils/gcc bug12:59
infinityAhh, right.  Haven't found a clever workaround for that yet?12:59
BenCsparc64 is good for 99% of the machines out there, just not mine12:59
infinityTypical.12:59
BenCnah, it's pretty horrible12:59
infinityI need to get a sparc box in my house somewhere.01:00
WebMavenBut do this: start Python01:01
WebMavenand in python do this: >>> from __future__ import division01:01
WebMavenviola! importing from the future!01:02
WebMavenunfortunately, from __future__ import jetpack fails01:02
WebMavenBenC: Can I consider my bug confirmed at thisd point?01:03
BenCWebMaven: as I said before, you can consider it so, it's just a matter of state at this point before I assign it01:04
WebMavenOK.01:04
WebMavenSorry for being so anxious. I really want to get my laptop working.01:04
WebMavenAlso, regarding the dupe with #34958... which way should I mark the dupe?01:07
infinityIf both have crap info, always make the new one a dupe of the old one.01:08
infinityIf one bug in the set has lots of really good debugging info, I tend to make that they "master" bug, just cause.01:08
WebMavenI *think* mine has slightly better info, but I'm biased.01:08
WebMaventhey both have good info.01:09
infinityEither way, they link to each other in the end, so it doesn't really matter.01:09
infinityMake sure the "master" bug has a good bug title, for people searching later, that's all.01:09
infinity(Cause the other one becomes effectively invisible to bug lists and simple searches)01:09
BenCsat signal strength going...storm is not very nice to my broadband...I may be going out here soon01:11
infinityBenC: Pull fiber to the farm.01:12
WebMavenOK.01:12
infinityBenC: Or MOVE SOMEWHERE WITH FEWER COWS.01:12
infinity*cough*01:12
WebMavenYes. Because we all know the effect cows have on internet connectivity.01:13
infinityThey do seem to relate.01:13
infinityNot many cows in the downtown core of a city, where you're alsmo more likely to find fiber criss-crossed every 18 inches in the ground.01:14
crimsunout of us all, BenC probably has the highest possibility of having ponies, though01:14
infinitycrimsun: This is a good thing?01:14
crimsunponies can only be good!01:14
=== crimsun ahems
WebMavenI want electricsheep. And a pony.01:15
WebMavenOk, all three old bugs maked as dupes of mine.01:17
=== dilinger wonders how well sarge->dapper upgrades work
infinitydilinger: Depends on how much stuff you have installed.01:22
infinitydilinger: From a base debootstrap, "Really Well"... From a full desktop system, I make no guarantees. :)01:23
dilingerinfinity: it's a server01:25
dilingerclose enough to debootstrap, i think01:25
infinityYeah, that should go smashingly well, then.01:25
infinityMake sure to add a pin-priority over 1000 to force downgrades if we have any (though we SHOULD be newer for everything)01:26
infinityPackage: *01:27
infinityPin: release a=dapper01:27
infinityPin-Priority: 100101:27
infinityIn /etc/apt/preferences01:27
infinityAnd then go hard.01:27
dilingerinfinity: also, i'm told IP-over-bovine, while a bit slower than carrier pigeon, is actually pretty robust.  benc just needs to parallelize his cows.01:27
infinityPainful round-trip if you lose a frame, though.01:28
dilingerbut you get a hamburger out of the dropped frame01:29
WebMavenI don't like Bullian logic...01:30
dilingerinteresting01:33
dilinger8 packages downgraded w/ pinning01:34
infinityCare to tell me which ones, so I make sure we get them in sync for edgy? :)01:34
dilingerthey're actually all just same versions01:35
dilingerThe following packages will be DOWNGRADED: ed host libatm1 libgdbm3 libgdbmg1 libident libpcap0.7 reiserfsprogs01:35
dilingerthe sarge versions match the dapper ones01:36
infinityAhh.  But pinning is still The Right Thing in that case, so you get our builds of the binaries instead of the Debian builds.01:36
dilingerindeed01:37
BenCthere's 12 cows, maybe I can get them to mozy over to the cable drop and pull a few thousand feet of coax01:37

rohhi there10:02
rohi've notified a very strange problem here on my thinkpad which is not in the bugtracker, but it seems i cannot file bugs there10:03
mjg59Which bugtracker?10:03
rohthe one accessible from the launchpad10:03
mjg59You ought to be able to file bugs there...10:03
rohit says the kernel is not in malone10:03
mjg59How are you trying to file it?10:03
=== ealden [n=ealden@203.76.211.204] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
mjg59Try https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+filebug and then choose linux-source-2.6.15 as the source package10:04
rohhm.10:04
rohi have a patch. its 2 lines10:05
roh-# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG is not set10:05
roh+CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG=y10:05
mjg59Hm. What's the reasoning?10:05
rohdebugging is off by default in the runtime. so it only changes some macros to be compiled in.10:05
mjg59Yes10:05
rohand that changes runtime behaviour.. 10:05
mjg59That doesn't really answer my question :)10:06
rohwithout speedstep-smi does not work at all. the module does not find the hardware to be working10:06
mjg59The speedstep-smi issue is already known10:06
rohat least on my thinkpad x2010:06
mjg59I believe it's being fixed properly (rather than depending on the debug stuff)10:07
rohthat would be nice... but eventually not trivial without a lot of testsystems at hand10:09
rohi looked into the code and couldn't find anything that looked like a thinko and not like 'timing'.. i didn't try adding some delays though10:10
