[12:09] <zul> BenC: ping
[12:14] <BenC> zul: pong
[12:15] <WebMaven> BenC: Is someone assigned to produce the fix for my laptop?
[12:15] <BenC> WebMaven: yeah, me
[12:15] <WebMaven> BenC: Ah, OK.
[12:16] <BenC> WebMaven: first part is actually figuring out what to fix
[12:16] <WebMaven> Is there any further info I can get you to help that along?
[12:17] <WebMaven> I obviously have a workaround for now, but I'd rather have an actual fix.
[12:22] <zul> BenC: the fxsave_clelar function doesnt exist in 2.6.10 looks like i might have to backport it

[12:48] <bluefoxicy> I 
[12:48] <bluefoxicy> have no fucking clue if this is going to work.
[12:48] <bluefoxicy> oh that's right I have to throw stuff in elf.h all over the place
[01:53] <zul> thre patches for hoary done
[01:54] <zul> BenC: are you going to the the distro team meeting tomorrow morning?
[01:55] <zul> im debating whether to get up for it or not
[02:01] <ajmitch> morning
[02:01] <ajmitch> zul: do it!
[02:02] <zul> wohoo...dateline is doing internet predators again
[02:42] <bluefoxicy> did they get me on there this time?
[02:44] <zul> uh...ok
[02:50] <Keybuk> BenC: awake?
[02:50] <Keybuk> BenC: un-ping
[03:21] <zul> BenC: yay it builds
[10:03] <fabbione> BenC: please pull from my edgy tree when you are around.. i completed the cluster cleanup for gfs1
[10:59] <zul> hey
[11:03] <ajmitch> hi zul 
[11:05] <zul> hey ajmitch 
[01:13] <zul> hey
[01:13] <ajmitch> hey zul
[01:14] <zul> hey ajmitch 
[01:16] <zul> BenC: ill send you the diff for hoary tonight
[06:12] <cbx33> Hi all, ogra pointed me here
[06:12] <cbx33> I have a problem my keyboard on a Toshiba Laptop
[06:12] <cbx33> it happens on the live cd as well as the system I upgraded from breezy
[06:12] <cbx33> it was fine before
[06:13] <cbx33> but now every minute or so, it just skips two characters or so
[06:13] <Keybuk> cbx33: the letters "w", "i", "t" and "h" don't work? :p
[06:13] <cbx33> Keybuk, see, it skipped those 4
[06:14] <cbx33> sometimes, it holds down one letter for the 2 that it skipped and replaces them with that character
[06:14] <BenC> cbx33: Does it skip and sometimes repeat?
[06:14] <Keybuk> it started happening after the upgrade?
[06:14] <cbx33> Keybuk, yes
[06:14] <cbx33> BenC, yes
[06:14] <BenC> cbx33: There's a bug report about that, search linux-source-2.6.15 bug reports for "repeat"
[06:14] <mjg59> cbx33: Did you have working battery status in breezy?
[06:15] <cbx33> mjg59, no
[06:15] <mjg59> Do you in dapper?
[06:15] <cbx33> yes
[06:15] <BenC> yeah, that's the one
[06:15] <mjg59> Ok. It'll be the smart battery driver
[06:15] <cbx33> wow thanks guys
[06:15] <cbx33> anything I can do
[06:15] <BenC> unload the driver
[06:15] <cbx33> I'de prefer to get rid of the battery monitor
[06:15] <mjg59> It seems to disable interrupts for long enough that things break
[06:15] <BenC> acpi_ something
[06:15] <cbx33> any helpers on how
[06:15] <mjg59> cbx33: sudo rmmod acpi-sbs
[06:15] <cbx33> how do I make that permanent?
[06:15] <mjg59> Will do it temporarily. It's a bit harder to make it permanent.
[06:15] <Keybuk> echo blacklist acpi-sbs > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-sbs
[06:16] <mjg59> Keybuk: No
[06:16] <Keybuk> or is it force loaded?
[06:16] <mjg59> Keybuk: acpid modprobes everything in drivers/acpi
[06:16] <Keybuk> mjg59: gnargh, and it doesn't use modprobe -b ?!
[06:16] <mjg59> Keybuk: Doubt it
[06:16] <BenC> acpid should call modprobe -b
[06:16] <cbx33> could I add it to my login script?
[06:16] <cbx33> actually no
[06:16] <fabbione> hey BenC 
[06:17] <BenC> hey fabbione, saw your msg
[06:17] <BenC> I'll pull shortly
[06:17] <cbx33> that'll do for now
[06:17] <Keybuk> cbx33: edit /etc/init.d/acpid and add MODPROBE_OPTIONS=-b near the top
[06:17] <fabbione> BenC: perfect thanks.. it kills cluster/ and update the gnbd code that's the only left over from the cvs tree
[06:17] <cbx33> what does that do?
[06:18] <Keybuk> cbx33: it means that the blacklist line I gave you above with work
[06:18] <BenC> cbx33: and then do the blacklist shown above
[06:18] <Keybuk> and prevent that module being loaded at boot
[06:18] <cbx33> ok cool
[06:19] <cbx33> shall i create blacklist-sbs
[06:19] <cbx33> if it doesn't exist?
[06:19] <Keybuk> yes
[06:19] <Keybuk> (filed a bug on acpid to remind myself to fix that)
[06:19] <cbx33> can I test by restarting the acpid service ?
[06:19] <Keybuk> cbx33: if you've done the rmmod, yes
[06:20] <zul> BenC: so if my hoary boots tonight ill upload it sounds good? or do you want to have a look at the diff again?
[06:20] <Keybuk> if the module doesn't show up in lsmod after, then it's worked
[06:20] <alex_joni> hello, any idea what to check if a custom built 2.6.15 (from dapper 2.6.15-23) doesn't show the splash? (it simply stays black)
[06:20] <BenC> zul: upload sounds good
[06:20] <cbx33> w00t
[06:20] <cbx33> thank you guys so much
[06:20] <cbx33> you have nooooo idea how annoying that was
[06:21] <cbx33> Keybuk, do you have a bug number for that so I can see when it's fixed
[06:21] <Keybuk> #49017
[06:22] <zul> BenC: excelente el presidente
[06:22] <Keybuk> (for the acpid blacklist)
[06:22] <Keybuk> #39315 for the battery module problem
[06:23] <cbx33> thanks
[06:24] <cbx33> oh you guys are amazing
[06:24] <cbx33> thank you so much
[06:24] <cbx33> do you guys hug here ;) like in motu?
[06:24] <cbx33> and -bugs
[06:24] <cbx33> if so 
[06:30] <BenC> there seems to be a patch to fix that hang when reading BAT/state
[06:39] <BenC> mjg59: Have you seen the patch that makes acpi/ec.c use a sema instead of a spinlock, and fixes the acpi-sbs problem?
[06:40] <BenC> presumably it slows down access to the ec, but keeps it from holding off interrupts while reading the bat status
[06:41] <cbx33> does the fix we just implemented stop the batt monitor from working
[06:41] <BenC> yes
[06:46] <cbx33> ok cool just soas I know
[06:46] <cbx33> thought it did
[08:27] <mjg59> BenC: Might help
[08:51] <BenC> mjg59: I'm a little reluctant to put it into dapper...but the problem it's causing is pretty big
[08:52] <BenC> might be best to disable acpi-sbs for dapper, and test this patch in edgy
[08:52] <mjg59> What codepath does the patch hit?
[08:54] <BenC> acpi_ec_polling_wait(), acpi_ec_poll_read(), acpi_ec_poll_write(), acpi_ec_poll_query()
[08:54] <mjg59> Does anything else use them?
[08:55] <BenC> it's just ec.c...changing the spinlocks to semaphores and some udelays to msleeps, but with same timeouts
[08:55] <BenC> use those functions?
[08:55] <BenC> hmm..not sure
[08:57] <mjg59> The answer seems to be "no"
[08:57] <mjg59> I'd just go ahead and do it, tbh
[08:57] <BenC> ibm_acpi
[08:58] <BenC> and i2c_acpi_ec
[08:58] <BenC> acpi_sbs.c uses i2c_acpi_ec
[08:59] <BenC> fuck it, can't hurt I guess
[08:59] <BenC> 11 out of 16 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file drivers/acpi/ec.c.rej
[08:59] <BenC> figures
[09:02] <mjg59> Ha
[09:02] <mjg59> i2c_acpi_ec is only used for acpi_sbs
[09:02] <mjg59> The rejects are probably due to acpi *finally* being lindented
[09:03] <BenC> yeah, looks that way
[09:03] <BenC> the patch is for .14
[09:04] <BenC> plus s/polling/poll/
[09:35] <BenC> crimsun: ping
[09:54] <zul> right im out of here..
[09:55] <zul> ttyl
[11:05] <crimsun> BenC: pong
[11:06] <BenC> crimsun: should any of the sound patches you sent me for dapper need to be merged into 2.6.17, or will they get pulled from upstream?
[11:07] <crimsun> BenC: they're all from upstream hg, so they'll get pulled, no need to merge
[11:07] <crimsun> (saves much work)
[11:07] <BenC> ok, thanks
[11:07] <crimsun> np
[11:21] <zul> yay it boots
[11:25] <zul> BenC: ping
[11:26] <BenC> zul: pong
[11:26] <zul> is there anything i have to do to dput to upload to hoary-security?
[11:29] <zul> i guess not..
