Have fun with poker) [05:36] no problem, I'll keep IRC open, so ping me if anything craps up [05:36] Have you no faith? [05:36] Surely, it's all perfect. [05:36] Right? [05:36] what I did was perfect, but the buildd's seem a little unreliable :) [05:37] Uh huh. Like the undefined Makefile ordering that you blamed on pitti? :) [05:37] (Well, you blamed it on me, I blamed it on him. Faster buck-passing, I've never seen) [05:38] actually, it was a dh_strip being called on a nonexistent directory :) [05:38] but it worked on my box!! [05:38] Yes, because the makefile ordering was sketchy (a target that should have depende on another target didn't) [05:38] And dh_strip is buggy for allowing that, afaict. pitti filed a bug with Debian. [05:39] yeah, it's defnitely a bug [05:39] leave it to some weird program to expose bugs in another program, and my build system :P [05:40] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=386246 [05:40] No response from Joey yet. I was expecting a pretty rapid smackdown as soon as he saw the word "wrapper" in a debhelper bug report. [05:44] lol [05:47] I'm just surprised that no rabid Debian developers have yet contacted me personally to yell at me for diverting dpkg-deb on our buildds. [05:48] This is, quite possibly, my favourite hideous Ubuntu hack to date. [05:48] Uncle LaMont has taught me well. [05:48] infinity: oh my goodness [05:49] Hello there, Mr Nick Hilight. [05:50] Of course, what I want to know is if you hilight on "LaMont", or on any occurance of the words "hideous" and "hack" in the same sentence. [05:50] :P [05:50] infinity: heh [05:51] lamont: Hey, I have a question [05:51] lamont: should I even worry about hppa anymore? [05:51] To your credit, the shoestring-and-bubblegum that is the w-b buildd network with sanae has held together fine with nearly zero intervention. [05:52] BenC: it's going to get love post-edgy [05:52] BenC: That all depends on Carlos and jbailey, but I suspect it'll skip edgy. [05:52] don't worry too much about it until after edgy ships [05:52] infinity: word from jbailey this morning was to that effect. [05:52] so if it fails to build right now, I can just ignore it? [05:52] BenC: It won't even try, let alone fail (on the buildds, that is) [05:52] BenC: well, don't gratuitously break it, but 2.6.17 is known to not boot, 2.6.18 actually boots [05:53] (in at least some configs) [05:53] lamont: are you kidding? I am running 2.6.17 on my a500 :) [05:53] current dapper kernel, that is [05:53] but yeah, the default config fails for me [05:53] right [05:53] I've been rather distracted the last month or so - personal legal crap [05:53] something to do with the console stuff [05:54] Who needs a console anyway? [05:54] way overrated. [05:54] Which reminds me... [05:55] the hardware seems to prefer it, since it halts the kernel because of it :) [05:55] lamont: The box you sent me, being rack kit, rather than desktop kit, doesn't have a video card. Any urge to dig one up for me for livecd console testing? === BenC wants one too [05:55] a vid card for the a500 that is [05:55] I can look around, but frankly, you're best off grabbing a (semi-) random PCI video card [05:56] lamont: Or just send me a desktop-class workstation, and I can have two. That won't bug me either. :) [05:56] I don't think I've ever opened my box [05:56] more particularly, none of the existing Visualize F*(tm) cards do much of any interest [05:56] lamont: Ahh, I could do that, yes. I wanted to test with hp-specific X drivers, but that's hardly critical. [05:57] lamont: Also, I assume, based on the lack of PS/2 ports on this box, that it boots with a USB keyboard just dandily? [05:57] kyle is currently being distracted from writing visualize FX drivers by his kernel work [05:57] (Forgive me, my last hppa box was a C200, I'm all old skool) [05:57] USB kbd/mouse would be the expectation. note that lack of video card being detected by the bios results in a serial console on the first serial port [05:57] Yeah, I know that part. :) [05:57] Serial works fine on the thing. [05:58] so as long as the video card gets detected by firmware, you're golden. If not, life sucks [05:58] Actually, on the C200, it was even sneakier, it booted to serial if it didn't detect a monitor, even if there was a video card. [05:58] Somewhat irritating, if you weren't expecting that behaviour. [05:58] yeah, I expect so [05:58] but with built-in video, what do you expect.... [05:58] Wasn't built-in. [05:59] It was some honkin' Visualize thingee. === lamont thought the C200 had one... [05:59] ah - well, said Visualize thingy should plug into the A500 just fine... or didn't I send you a J6700? [05:59] You sent me a J6700, yes. Of course, my C200 has been long gone for years. [06:00] If I still had it, I wouldn't have asked you for a newer machine. [06:00] if J6700, it should have built-in video, I thought.... stupid strange connector (EVC), rather than a VGA connector [06:00] It was "fast enough", after all. === lamont discovered how expensive it is to ship to .au when he sent the cdrom... [06:00] It's just serial/lan/usb/scsi/sound on the back. No video. [06:01] But, yeah. I'll find some random PCI hunk of junk when the time comes to test. [06:01] hrm. ok. === infinity misses his massive stockpile of parts he had in Canada. [06:01] Moving is hell on the tech hoarding. [06:02] went through my parts boxes today looking for a ps2 module [06:02] found stuff I forgot I had [06:03] When I went through my parts bins before moving, I ended up building about 8 machines and giving them away to friends. [06:03] hehe [06:03] Including finding enough spare parts to build a second AlphaServer that I didn't know I had. [06:03] I usually just find stuff to toss on ebay [06:04] hrm.. that reminds me. I need to build a machine for a friend's wedding present (they got married saturday, so I'm now late) === lamont has a B160 he could send infinity [06:05] Not sure I need to go that far back in time. :) [06:05] I'll just be happy when edgy+1 starts happening on this J6700. [06:05] I also need to find a cheap/free rack, I think. [06:06] I need one of those too [06:06] something with a nice cooling/ventilation system [06:06] I built my last one. Built it into the hutch in a desk. [06:06] Not sure I want to go that route this time. [06:06] I actually need like a 7 foot high rack [06:07] Ahh, I'm not there yet. Not unless lamont starts getting more generous. :) [06:07] with wheels, power strips, cooling, and other neat stuff [06:07] Racing stripes too? [06:07] And a laser on top? [06:07] yeah, read with white stripes [06:08] and a night rider light ont the fronty === lamont has a 1.6M rack, but no fan tray. [06:08] Okay, see, night rider lights would be awesome. I should build a set. [06:08] wow, it's late...three typos in those last two lines [06:08] Thanks for giving me yet another pointless thing to do on the weekend. [06:08] lol [06:08] infinity: don't forget the little "woo woo" sound :) [06:09] The more important part is that when you open the front door, there'll be a headshot of David Hasselhoff stuck to the front of the machines. [06:10] http://people.debian.org/~lamont/woowoo.wav [06:11] admittedly, not 100% relevant, but it does have the "woo woo" sound... === lamont heads bedwards [06:14] lamont: good night [06:14] g'night === infinity [n=adconrad@loki.0c3.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [07:52] zul: \o/ the nvidia driver worked for me with your patch.
