zuljeffarino03:31
zulBenC: i have a couple of questions for you when i get back later03:32
_kylemBenC, ok. i reproduced your bug.03:50
_kylemBenC, something like this:03:51
_kylemLoading ramdisk 4516272 bytes @ 3fba0000...03:51
_kylemBranching to kernel entry point 0x00100000.  If this is the last03:51
_kylemmessage you see, you may need to switch your console.  This is03:51
_kylema common symptom -- search the FAQ and mailing list at parisc-linux.org03:51
_kylem************* SYSTEM ALERT **************03:51
_kylemBenC, i'm going to rebuild your tree with my .config and see if it's a configuration problem, or some patch you merged.03:54
_kylemBenC, my config boots fine.04:12
_kylemmostly... for some reason it didn't mount /04:12
jbailey_kylem: This is with an Ubuntu initramfs?04:13
_kylemno.04:14
_kylemi don't build modular kernels.04:14
jbaileymodules are cuddly. =)04:14
_kylemjbailey, hmm. it didn't detect any of the disks at all.04:15
_kylembut sym2 got probed.04:15
_kylemcurious.04:15
jbaileyiirc, sym2 is heavily patched in the parisc-linux tree.04:15
_kylemhmm. true.04:16
_kylemso while i make oldconfig'd i noticed there was this 'speakup console' thing...04:16
_kylemi think if you guys have patches that muck with console support it might cause this.04:17
jbaileyYeah.  Now as it's booting you can have your machine talk to you:04:17
jbailey"On my way up!"04:17
jbailey"On my way up!"04:17
_kylemor rather, cause what benc.04:17
jbailey"Uh oh"04:17
_kylem...04:17
jbailey"This isn't good"04:17
jbailey"FOR THELOVE OF GOD!"04:17
jbailey"You didn't need that data did you?"04:17
jbailey"Checking your filesystem."04:17
jbailey"Does CTD mean anything to you?"04:17
_kylemjbailey, fwiw, there's no sym2 patches outstanding to 2.6.18-rc1 that should effect this.04:18
_kylemjbailey, i don't know where 2.6.17 stands on this.04:18
jbailey"I can see this conversation can serve no further purpose.  Goodbye."04:18
dokoBenC: please join #ubuntu-toolchain when breaking lkh. kthxbye :p05:29
BenCkylem: So you think the speakup stuff broke hppa?06:04
BenCI can certainly attempt to confirm that06:04
_kylemBenC, it's possible. i can probably build faster so i'll test it until i find it.06:15
_kylemi need to go look through the diff and look for any clues.06:25
mdzRecommended packages:07:12
mdz  BOOTLOADER07:12
mdzBenC: is that intentionally in all caps?07:12
mdzBenC: also, is 2.6.17-5.9 safe to install on the architectures where it did build successfully?07:13
BenCthe kernel is safe, it's just linux-kernel-headers that is broken07:21
BenCand I've no idea about the BOOTLOADER thing07:21
BenCinteresting...I forgot to fill in the bootloader stuff07:22
BenClol07:34
BenCmy screen brightness affects my keyboard backlighting07:35
BenCso if I switch to my evo desktop, the keys go black, but if I switch to my terminals (blackback ground), the keyboard lights up07:35

[g2-build] BenC, I've pulled the git tree. There used to be a newbiehow for building the kernel has that gone away ?08:45
BenCg2: see links in topic08:46
BenCmdz: Yeah, the pb has a backlight for the keyboard and sensors so it can automatically adjust to ambient light in the room08:46
BenCit even dims the lcd backlight the darker it is in the room (since it doesn't need so much contrast)08:47
[g2-build] BenC, I've got the ubuntu GIT tree from the link above, and the CategoryKernel doesn't seem to have the howto that was there a month ago or so08:51
[g2-build] clearly I'm missing something08:51
BenCoh wow08:56
BenCsome ripped out my KernelCustomBuild, and moved it to help.ubuntu.com08:57

[g2-build] BenC, ok I've got my first Ubuntu kernel built :) it's stock 386 from the git tree10:51
[g2-build] do I need to build the module-init-tools from source to work around the dependency issue ?10:55
[g2-build] linux-image-2.6.17-5-38fa6a-386 depends on module-init-tools (>= 3.2.2-3ubuntu2); however:10:55
[g2-build]   Version of module-init-tools on system is 3.2.2-1ubuntu7.10:55
BenCyeah, unless you want to upgrade libc6 with it (I assume you are running dapper)10:56
[g2-build] yeah dapper latest10:56
BenCyou could just copy the blacklist-pata to /etc/modprobe.d/ and do "dpkg --force-depends -i linux-image..."10:57
BenCbut proper would be to rebuild module-init-tools10:58
[g2-build] proper is good10:59
[g2-build] I'm not in a super hurry, I'd like to get thing "right"10:59
[g2-build] where do I need to point for the later version of the source ?11:00
[g2-build] getting source gets the current version :)11:00
BenCadd "deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main" to /etc/apt/sources.list11:01
BenCsudo apt-get update11:01
BenCapt-get source module-init-tools11:02
[g2-build] now that you mention it it just makes too much sense :)11:02
[g2-build] thx11:02
_kylemBenC, i'll try it on another box and see if i can be more persuasive.11:04
BenC_kylem: I got a successful boot with 2.6.17.3 stock + a500_debconfig11:04
BenCtrying ubuntu source + a500_defconfig 11:04
_kylemok.11:05
[g2-build] rebooting11:07
BenC_kylem: ubuntu code + a500_defconfig gets me to a "couldn't mount root" panic, I think because scsi_mod wasn't compiled in11:11
BenClet me check the config11:11
_kylemok.11:11
_kylemthat's the same thing i got with my a500 config + ubuntu kernel11:11
BenCCONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y11:14
BenChmm, it should have gotten the rootfs11:14
BenCI know the sym2 driver loaded11:14
_kylemyeah. it didn't see the disks at all though.11:19
_kylemdo you have any changes to sym2 that upstream doesn't have?11:19
BenCjust the stuff from pa611:21
_kylemok.11:22
_kylemi'm confused now then.11:22

[g2-build] wheee ! my first ubuntu kernel11:25
[g2-build] BenC, any ETA on building the restricted modules ?  I'm running with vesa instead of nv 11:27
[g2-build] no pressure, just curios11:27
[g2-build] thx for all the help btw -- you guys (Ubuntu) have the process in nice shape11:27
BenCg2: lrm for what?11:34
BenCdapper should have lrm built for it11:35
mjg59BenC: 2.6.17 isn't in dapper11:35
[g2-build] hey mjg59 11:38
BenCg2: you'll have to rebuild lrm yourself11:41
[g2-build] mjg59, are there any restricted modules required for the mac mini ? I'd guess the atheros11:41
BenCapt-get source linux-restricted-modules-2.6.1711:41
BenCedit debian/rules and find the ABI, set it to 5-38fa6a11:42
mjg59[g2-build] : Correct11:42
BenCyou'll have to add restricted to the deb-src line first11:42
[g2-build] BenC ok I'd like to walk through this and then I can have a draft update for the wiki11:43
[g2-build] I'll building the nv modules for the desktop first for this kernel is a good thing11:44
[g2-build] well good as in a good test11:44
[g2-build] BenC do you mean linux-restricted-modules-386 ?11:49
BenCthat's how you build it, yes11:49
BenCbut the package you just mentioned is just a meta-package11:50
[g2-build] right but in edgy main there's no linux-restricted-modules-2.6.1711:51
[g2-build] src that is11:51
[g2-build] and dapper is very unaware of that11:51
mjg59It ought to be in restricted11:51
=== [g2-build] starts to get a clue
[g2-build] so i need to add deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main restricted 11:53
[g2-build] to sources.list11:53
[g2-build] Does this mean they were just uploaded yesterday ? https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/edgy/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.1711:59
[g2-build] and is "+source" a different place ?12:00
BenCthe source doesn't change when I upload for a new kernel12:04
BenCit's just a change in the ABI12:04
BenCnot to mention even if I upload, you can use it, since your kernel ABI is different12:05
BenCyou have to build it anyway12:05
BenCyou can't use it, I mean12:05
