sn9[09:32:52]  <BenC> ok, time to do some boot testing08:17
sn9[09:32:54]  <-- BenC has quit ("bbl")08:17
sn9not since then08:18
AnAntsn9: what time is it now (according to you that is)08:18
sn9Tue Aug 29 23:18:53 PDT 200608:18
AnAnthmmm, that's many hours ago08:19
sn9yes08:19
sn914 hrs08:19
AnAntanyone knows if he applied the ipw2200 inject patch ?08:19
sn9i don't know, but i would presume not until he says so08:20
crimsunwhat patch, what tree?08:20
AnAntcrimsun: err, what do you mean by tree ?08:20
AnAntcrimsun: a week or two ago, I sent him a patch that enables injection on IPW2200 cards08:21
=== Lure [n=lure@ubuntu/member/lure] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
crimsunAnAnt: what source tree is the patch targeted against?08:22
crimsunand what patch are you referring to?08:22
AnAntcrimsun: well, 2.6.17 I assume08:22
AnAntcrimsun: well, I sent him an emailing asking for 2 things: 1. update the ipw2200 driver to the latest version (1.1.3) that is available on http://ipw2200.sf.net08:23
AnAnt2. applying a patch to that driver that enables injection , the patch is available at http://tv.latinsud.com/ipw2200/08:24
AnAntcrimsun: it patches ipw2200.c08:25
crimsunplease don't asume08:25
crimsunassume, even08:25
crimsundid you ask him to apply it 2.6.15 or to 2.6.17?08:25
crimsunthe trees that you ask him to apply it to affects the answer 08:25
sn9i.e., he won't apply to .15, right?08:26
AnAntwell, I wasn't explicit about that when I asked him08:26
crimsunAnAnt: that doesn't help, I'm afraid08:26
AnAntbut when we were chatting I was refering to Edgy08:26
AnAnthence, I meant 2.6.1708:27
AnAntbut I dunno if he understood it like that08:27
AnAntlemme check the chat logs08:27
crimsunthis is 2.6.17's: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-2.6.git;a=history;h=e202ae6a9c185b85f95309bf5513233db143d372;f=drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.c08:28
AnAntyes, I didn't mention it in the email, but we were talking about 2.6.17 in the chat08:28
AnAntok08:28
crimsunanswer's pretty definitive there.08:28
crimsunand this is 2.6.15's: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-dapper.git;a=history;h=54e90a8d2d90a3217f4022ca63546661852b0b45;f=drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.c08:29
AnAntwell, it doesn't seem he added it08:29
crimsunagain, fairly definitive.08:29
crimsunif he has, he hasn't pushed the change. Please do state unequivocally which tree(s) to apply it to in the future. :)08:30
AnAntsure08:31

ivoksany chance of it getting into edgy? it supports rockertaid 152012:56
ivoksi'll try to create a patch for edgy kernel source12:57
zuldo you have a reference?12:58
ivokshttp://www.highpoint-tech.com/BIOS%20+%20Driver/rr1520/Linux/hpt37x2-opensource-v2.1-0717.tgz12:58
nigel_cEvening guys.12:58
ivoksi didn't know there is one, untill i needed it :/12:58
nigel_cAnyone got any suggestions when it comes to gcompizthemer being unable to apply any themes?12:58
nigel_cI tried an strace, and nothing jumped out at me12:59
nigel_cAnd tried googling12:59
ivokszul: it builds and works nicely; problems happens when you insmod older hpt driver while this one is allready in - RAID collapses and kernel doesn't boot :)01:01
zulshouldnt be too hard to include it open a bug in launchpad so we can track it01:04

omeowHi.03:24
omeowThe latest nvidia-glx for kubuntu edgy requires linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-6-386, will the k7 modules be available later or am I doing something wrong?03:25
infinityomeow: "apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` nvidia-glx"03:26
infinityomeow: You're running across an apt bug, that's all.  Smarter package managers (like aptitude or dselect) would resolve the path of least resistance for you.03:27
omeowI use adept.03:27
omeowOr well, try to use it anyway...03:27
omeowPiece of shit.03:27
=== omeow [n=omega@co63471-a.olden1.ov.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
=== omeow [n=omega@co63471-a.olden1.ov.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
omeowinfinity: I ran that command you told me to run, both packages are already installed.03:52
infinityomeow: Err, then I'm not seeing the issue? :)03:53
infinityomeow: You already have the latest nvidia-glx, so what could possibly be telling you that it requires some other package?03:53
omeowthe fact that I can no longer start X and looking at the log tells me that it cannot initialize the kernel module 03:54
infinityDid you reboot at any point after all this?03:55
omeowX starts when I load the i386 kernel, but when I start the k7 one it won't launch X03:55
omeowYes, trice. :)03:55
infinityOh, err.  What kernel were you booted into when you ran the above command? :)03:55
infinityCause "`uname -r`" would have expanded to 2.6.17-6-385, if you were booted to the 386 kernel. :)03:56
infinity"apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-6-k7" and see if that wants to do something.03:56
omeowI was booted in i386 at that point, but I understood that that wouldn't work since I wanted the k7 one to be installed, so I rebooted and ran the command again.03:57
omeowlinux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-25-k7 is already the newest version.03:58
infinityErr, you realise what you just said, right?03:59
=== ivoks [n=ivoks@lns02-0612.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
infinity"2.6.15-25-k7"03:59
infinityBut we're talking about edgy kernels (2.6.17-6-$arch)03:59
infinity"apt-get install linux-k7"03:59
infinityAnd never again worry about being up to date.04:00
omeowWhat do you mean with that? 04:00
infinityYour k7 kernel is a 2.6.15 kernel from dapper.04:01
omeowurf04:01
infinityInstall the "linux-k7" package, and it will pull in the latest.04:01
infinity(And keep it current)04:01
ivoksproblem is that ubuntu-minimal|desktop|standard doesn't depend on linux-xxx04:01
infinityivoks: How could it?04:01
ivoksit's hard to achive, i know04:01
infinityivoks: People install linux-foo after the fact.04:02
infinityivoks: We install linux-386 during the installation.  What you choose to do after that isn't up to us.04:02
ivoksthat's right04:02
infinityivoks: This is all being sorted by just unifying the whole lot into one uber-kernel, hopefully, but we're not quite there yet.04:02
infinity(I think Ben's next upload will reduce us to two kernels on i386, though)04:02
ivoksinfinity: as soon as I get time, I'll do the tests on my machine too04:03
omeowOk, let me give that a try.04:04
ivoksright know, i have to buy new disks for ubuntu-hr.org and see what will be out of my office, since the building was on fire :)04:04

omeowThanks infinity. It looks to be working again. :)04:32
omeowHowever, one thing I still need to do is re-compile the module for my xbox 360 controller. 04:32

BenChrmm..uh, no I grabbed the .3-107:22
BenCis it just a new nvidia shar?07:22
infinityAnd some changelog dicking, yeah.  Should be the same, otherwise.07:23
infinityJust debdiff them on chinstrap or sometihng, and apply the patch to yours.07:23
infinityAnd then put the orig together.  Or whatever. :)07:24
infinityOr upload your stuff to chinstrap, and I'll merge it all.07:24

crimsundoesn't seem like it's even referenced there at all, so it's not being added to the initramfs, which causes the symptom described in the bug report08:41

mjg59BenC: Have you fixed the console switching stuff on resume from disk?09:11
BenCmjg59: yeah09:13
Mithrandirmjg59: my x40 is unhappy when resuming after StR.  I guess "doesn't work" isn't very useful for you, so what is.  It seems to generally get to the "make suspend light blink", then stops.  alt-Sysrq-s doesn't generate disk activity, so I don't think the kernel is running.  (Or the keyboard driver isn't reloaded)09:15
Mithrandir(edgy)09:17
mjg59Mithrandir: Can you boot with acpi_sleep=s3_bios?09:17

AnAnta patch that enables injection09:29
BenCAnAnt: It's updated in git09:29
BenCthe inject patch I wont use09:29
BenCI don't like what it allows you to do, by default09:29
BenCif it can be changed to only be enabled with a module parm, I'd accept it09:29
AnAntwhat do you mean by "by default" ?09:30
BenCthe injection code is enabled when the module is loaded09:30
BenCI don't want that09:30
BenCsounds too anti-security09:30
AnAntI understand that it has a rtap_iface parm09:30
BenCjust like ethernet devices aren't in promiscuous by default09:30
AnAntyou mean, that if the rtap_iface is not enabled, the injection code is enabled ?09:31
BenCthat's what it looked like to me, but maybe I need to read it better09:31
