[12:13] <ajmitch> as much as I'd like it as well :)
[12:14] <ivoks> well, edgy+1 is only 6 months from now :)
[12:15] <ivoks> 'night all
[12:16] <ajmitch> night ivoks 
[04:58] <BenC> cool, my jmicron eval board will be here tomorrow afternoon
[04:59] <BenC> means I should have an upload by tomorrow evening
[06:20] <fabbione> morning
[08:12] <Mithrandir> zul: yeah, I need to push my changes, sorry.
[08:41] <ivoks> 'morning
[08:42] <Fujitsu> Hey ivoks.
[08:44] <ivoks> hi Fujitsu 
[08:46] <ivoks> BenC: 2.6.18's generic.c contains some stuff about jmicron, which our kernel doesn't....
[08:51] <marcin_ant> ivoks: hi
[08:52] <ivoks> hi marcin_ant 
[08:52] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I'm not kernel guru and developer - just simple user - but I compiled 2.6.18 (vanilla) on dapper two days ago
[08:52] <ivoks> marcin_ant: and?
[08:52] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I hoped that it could fix something with jmicron - and... nothing
[08:52] <marcin_ant> ivoks: this controller didn't work
[08:53] <ivoks> hm...
[08:53] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but I'm not sure if I did everything properly
[08:53] <ivoks> are you talking about SATA or IDE part of controller?
[08:53] <marcin_ant> ivoks: because there are reports that with 2.6.18 jmicron is operational
[08:53] <marcin_ant> ivoks: IDE
[08:54] <ivoks> acording to 2.6.18 source, jmicron IDE controller should work with generic IDE module
[08:54] <ivoks> and SATA controller should work with ahci
[08:54] <ivoks> sata part is fixed in edgy's kernel
[08:54] <marcin_ant> then I just propably messed something in kernel config
[08:54] <Mithrandir> BenC: we're closing for beta, unless it's _really_ needed, I'd be happier if you made that upload after beta is out.
[08:55] <marcin_ant> ivoks: well it's nice but it doesn't solve problem :(
[08:55] <ivoks> i'll test this change in generic, to see if it works
[08:55] <marcin_ant> ivoks: if you got sata DVD/CD then in 90% of cases you don't care about jmicron issue you can just plug drive into ICH8
[08:55] <ivoks> marcin_ant: i know
[08:56] <ivoks> but ich8 doesn't work either for me
[08:56] <marcin_ant> ivoks: with sata?
[08:56] <ivoks> ich8 sata controller doesn't work for me, right
[08:56] <marcin_ant> ivoks: at all or just with some kind of sata cd/dvd?
[08:57] <ivoks> at all
[08:57] <marcin_ant> ivoks: strange...
[08:57] <ivoks> marcin_ant: works for you?
[08:57] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I got asus p5b and it works without any problems with sata hdd
[08:57] <ivoks> i have p5b too :)
[08:57] <ivoks> what's your bios config for ich8?
[08:57] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I'm running dapper on this machine installed via instlux
[08:57] <ivoks> i don't care about instlux
[08:58] <marcin_ant> ivoks: now I'm at work so I cannot tell you what is my config in 100%
[08:58] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but tell me what hardware config you got...
[08:58] <marcin_ant> ivoks: asus p5b and what hdd you got?
[08:59] <ivoks> wd
[08:59] <marcin_ant> ivoks: sata?
[08:59] <ivoks> of course
[09:00] <marcin_ant> ivoks: well it's not so obvious ;) I got 4 drives in my case with p5b and only one is sata... 
[09:00] <marcin_ant> ivoks: ok anyway then what else? cd/dvd... sata/ide?
[09:00] <marcin_ant> ivoks: fdd? usb drive?
[09:01] <ivoks> marcin_ant: p5b has only one IDE port
[09:01] <ivoks> how could you put 3 drivers on one ide port?
[09:01] <marcin_ant> ivoks: sure but I got additional ATA 100 controller on cmd controller
[09:02] <marcin_ant> controller/chipset
[09:02] <marcin_ant> ivoks: on pci
[09:02] <ivoks> well, i have ide cd, sata disk, fdd
[09:03] <marcin_ant> ivoks: anyway I hoped that I will be able to run p5b only with pata drives - and unfortunately I couldnt boot from additional controller and had to buy sata hdd - but's another story
[09:03] <marcin_ant> ivoks: ok, can you boot from hdd ?
[09:03] <marcin_ant> ivoks: to any system? windows or something?
[09:03] <ivoks> no
[09:03] <ivoks> grub freezes :/
[09:04] <marcin_ant> so you can boot from this hdd and then you stop on grub right?
[09:04] <ivoks> anyway, i think this part of generic.c is key to this issue
[09:05] <marcin_ant> (it means that technically your bios is configured properly to boot from sata hdd)
[09:05] <ivoks> marcin_ant: ahm... i know that :)
[09:05] <ivoks> marcin_ant: i'm not here trying to get help :)
[09:06] <ivoks> my system works, i only want to make it work to others
[09:07] <marcin_ant> ivoks: well sure but It's strange that you cannot boot to linux at all
[09:07] <ivoks> i can boot... i don't need disk to boot to it
[09:07] <marcin_ant> ivoks: i got workable dapper and my grub is working properly
[09:08] <marcin_ant> ivoks: so this is why I ask because I'm trying to understand what can be broken on your machine
[09:08] <ivoks> marcin_ant: my disk is connected to jmicron, not ich8
[09:09] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but you said that "but ich8 doesn't work either for me"
[09:09] <ivoks> it doesn't, but that's another issue
[09:09] <ivoks> i'm working on jmicron now
[09:09] <ivoks> atm, i don't care about ich8
[09:09] <marcin_ant> ivoks: ok I see
[09:10] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I just thought that you got your primary hdd connected to ich8 and cd/dvd to jmicron...
[09:10] <ivoks> everything is connected to jmicron
[09:11] <ivoks> cd to ide port, and disk to sata port
[09:11] <marcin_ant> ivoks: anyway on my mobo I got one sata hdd connected to ich8 and it's fully operational
[09:11] <marcin_ant> ivoks: than I got IDE cd/dvd connected to jmicron - which doesn't work with linux 
[09:11] <ivoks> that means that ich8 works, great
[09:12] <ivoks> i'm hoping to solve that issue now
[09:12] <marcin_ant> ivoks: and I got three PATA hd drives connected to additional IDE controlled on PCI
[09:12] <marcin_ant> ivoks: which are also functional although I cannot boot from any of these drives
[09:13] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but it's propably problem with this particular controller and maybe with p5b bios... and it's not important now
[09:13] <marcin_ant> ivoks: another thing that doesn't work on this mobo is gigabyte LAN
[09:14] <marcin_ant> ivoks: this mobo has two NIC's but only one works
[09:14] <ivoks> interesting... i have only one nic on p5b
[09:14] <marcin_ant> ivoks: hmmm
[09:15] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I got Asus p5b deluxe with wi-fi
[09:15] <marcin_ant> ivoks: maybe only this model has two NIC's
[09:40] <ph8> i think the deluxe is indeed the only one with 2 nics
[09:48] <ivoks> yoj! i got CD working
[09:49] <ivoks> but still, my ich8 doesn't work :((((((
[09:50] <ivoks> i'll be back with a patch
[09:56] <marcin_ant> ivoks_away: take a look at #62206
[09:56] <marcin_ant> ehh he left
[10:09] <ivoks> BenC: patch for CD jmicron is at: http://www.grad.hr/~ivoks/ubuntu/jmb.patch
[10:09] <ivoks> BenC: tested, works great
[10:28] <ivoks> marcin_ant: ping
[10:28] <marcin_ant> ivoks: pong
[10:29] <ivoks> marcin_ant: could you, when you get home, write down your bios config, and send it to me?
[10:29] <ivoks> marcin_ant: my ich8 just doesn't work :/
[10:29] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I see you fixed your jmicron :)
[10:29] <ivoks> yes... it works
[10:29] <ivoks> and patch is trivial
[10:29] <marcin_ant> ivoks: sure - but I can tell you pretty simple thing
[10:30] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I had problems with kernel from edgy I couldn't boot machine at all
[10:30] <ivoks> that's cause CD didn't work
[10:30] <marcin_ant> ivoks: then I set just default bios settings
[10:31] <marcin_ant> and then in boot section
[10:31] <marcin_ant> I just selected my hdd drive and it worked
[10:31] <marcin_ant> maybe you could try this too
[10:31] <ivoks> heh...
[10:32] <marcin_ant> question is - do you have problems with ich8 in linux kernel or in bios?
[10:32] <ivoks> in linux kernel
[10:32] <ivoks> if i connect disk to ich8, grub starts on it
[10:32] <ivoks> but kernel fails to detect cd
[10:33] <ivoks> it reports that ata1 is slow to respond
[10:33] <ivoks> and that drive failed to identify
[10:33] <marcin_ant> ok but why cd?
[10:33] <ivoks> sorry... not CD, disk
[10:33] <marcin_ant> hmm strange
[10:34] <marcin_ant> it can be something in bios...
[10:34] <marcin_ant> with sata settings... it shoud be set to enhanced afair
[10:34] <ivoks> it can, of course...
[10:34] <ivoks> i tried all possible settings
[10:34] <marcin_ant> ok I will send my settings to you
[10:34] <ivoks> k, thanks
[10:35] <marcin_ant> I will be able to do this at about 20-21:00 (I'm in Poland and now is 10:35 here)
[10:35] <ivoks> same time in croatia :)
[10:36] <marcin_ant> ok so I will try to catch you here at evening
[10:36] <ivoks> you could send it to email
[10:36] <ivoks> ivoks@grad.hr
[10:36] <ivoks> or ubuntu.com
[10:36] <ivoks> i don't know if i'll be here at that time
[10:36] <marcin_ant> ok
[10:37] <marcin_ant> this patch is for 2.6.18?
[10:37] <ivoks> no, for edgy kernel
[10:37] <ivoks> it's taken out of 2.6.18
[10:38] <marcin_ant> ehhh I don't want to try edgy yet :(
[10:38] <marcin_ant> I did few days ago and couldn't boot at all
[10:38] <ivoks> your SATA jmicron must be set up as AHCI, and IDE must be enabled in BIOS
[10:38] <ivoks> i think p5b has bugs
[10:39] <marcin_ant> kernel froze on setting ACPI on CPU or something like this...
[10:39] <ivoks> no, it breaks on something else...
[10:39] <ivoks> er... ich8 works for you with dapper?
[10:40] <marcin_ant> ivoks: yes with dapper
[10:40] <ivoks> khm...
[10:40] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but I also had edgy for single day ;)
[10:40] <ivoks> and ich8 worked?
[10:40] <marcin_ant> ivoks: yes
[10:40] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but not after dist-upgrade
[10:40] <ivoks> heh... interesting
[10:40] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I installed dapper once with instlux
[10:41] <marcin_ant> ivoks: then upgraded with 'upgrade-manager' to edgy
[10:41] <marcin_ant> ivoks: and it was ok
[10:41] <marcin_ant> ivoks: then I next day I did dist-upgrade and couldn't boot
[10:41] <ivoks> that sounds like regression
[10:42] <ivoks> so, conclusion is that ich8 work with dapper, but not with edgy
[10:42] <marcin_ant> ivoks: then I installed edgy from daily build 21.09.2006
[10:43] <marcin_ant> ivoks: on this disk on another machine with some via chipset and PIV 3GHz
[10:43] <ivoks> that's irrelevant information
[10:43] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but when I connected this disk at home to asus p5b
[10:43] <ivoks> ...yes?
[10:43] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I couldn't boot at all
[10:43] <ivoks> that's it
[10:43] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I could see grub
[10:44] <marcin_ant> ivoks: then some messages about ACPI and usb errors
[10:44] <ivoks> hehehe
[10:44] <ivoks> that's it
[10:44] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I don't remember them...
[10:44] <ivoks> edgy's kernel has regression
[10:44] <ivoks> that would mean if i add this patch to dapper
[10:44] <ivoks> i should be able to boot from ich8 and i should be able to see CD
[10:45] <marcin_ant> ivoks: so I was so annoyed and angry that I switched to windows
[10:45] <ivoks> i will try that later today
[10:45] <marcin_ant> ivoks: and then I installed dapper again via instlux
[10:45] <ivoks> marcin_ant: cause CDrom didn't work?
[10:45] <marcin_ant> ivoks: yes cd rom doesn't work on dapper
[10:45] <ivoks> hehe, thanks million times
[10:46] <marcin_ant> ivoks: ich8 can work - jmicron cannot
[10:46] <ivoks> i know where to find bug now
[10:46] <marcin_ant> ivoks: and because I don;t have separate partition for another linux distro (edgy) I don't want to upgrade to edgy yet
[10:47] <marcin_ant> ivoks: because I don't want to mess with my current workable distro.. I need to work on this
[10:47] <marcin_ant> ivoks: but I would like to have an ability to use cd/dvd in dapper too
[10:48] <marcin_ant> ivoks: it's a bit annoying that I have to switch to windows to prepare backups :)
[10:48] <ivoks> marcin_ant: this fix for IDE controller is trivial; i think i could be backported
[10:48] <ivoks> i'm not so sure about SATA part
[10:49] <marcin_ant> ivoks: well it's sata part is propably really not so important
[10:50] <ivoks> well... pb5 has exterior sata port that's on jmicron controller
[10:50] <marcin_ant> ivoks: btw if you have some free time could you take a look at #62206?
[10:50] <ivoks> atm i don't have X :)
[10:50] <marcin_ant> ivoks: I know - with raid support or something...
[10:50] <ivoks> and i have exam in 3 hours
[10:50] <ivoks> even wors... in 2 hours :)
[10:51] <marcin_ant> ok it's not something very important - it's just my bug report about secondary NIC's on asus p5b deluxe
[10:51] <ivoks> i can't do anything about that since i don't have that hardware
[10:51] <marcin_ant> I verified this - your p5b has single LAN - mine has two controllers
[10:51] <ivoks> add lspci, lspci -n and lspci -vvv to bug report, if you didn't allready
[10:52] <marcin_ant> I did
[10:52] <marcin_ant> and info about what kind of chipset it is
[10:52] <marcin_ant> (taken from windows hardware manager)
[10:52] <marcin_ant> ok... you have exam and I should work ;)
[10:53] <ivoks> right
[10:53] <marcin_ant> so... 
[10:53] <ivoks> brb
[10:53] <marcin_ant> right :)
[10:53] <marcin_ant> brb
[01:43] <zul> Mithrandir: i think i might have missed your response it went past my scrollback
[01:45] <Mithrandir> zul: pushed my changes now
[01:46] <zul> ok cool...thanks..
[04:05] <BenC> hmm...when jmicron said they were sending an eval board, I expected a mobo
[04:05] <BenC> they sent me PCI-E weirdness that I'm not sure I can even use
[04:06] <BenC> on a brighter note, verizon is digging up my driveway for the T1 circuit
[04:07] <kylem> oh oh oh send me the pcie card. ;-P
[04:08] <zul> oh those crazy crazy hardware vendors
[04:12] <ivoks> howdy
[04:13] <BenC> nice, my amd64 box has PCI-E slots
[04:13] <ivoks> hi BenC 
[04:14] <BenC> ivoks: hey
[04:14] <ivoks> BenC: that 'path' i sent you seams to fix jmicron ide problem for me
[04:14] <ivoks> 'patch'
[04:14] <BenC> got it, and testing it
[04:14] <zul> BenC: so 2.6.17 xen boots but when i try launch some guests it complains it cant find /dev/sda1
[04:14] <ivoks> BenC: and it looks like edgy kernel has regression for ICH8 (untested claim)
[04:15] <BenC> ivoks: regression from dapper?
[04:15] <ivoks> yes
[04:15] <ivoks> marcin_ant said he was able to install dapper on ich8
[04:15] <BenC> wouldn't doubt it, I need to test ich8, and I've no hardware to test with
[04:15] <ivoks> but when he upgrade to edgy, think didn't work anymore
[04:15] <ivoks> i have hardware :)
[04:16] <ivoks> you are welcome to test it
[04:16] <ivoks> brb
[04:17] <BenC> I have the jmicron eval board, and after inserting it into my box, I got an oops on boot
[04:19] <ivoks> ide/sata controller?
[04:19] <ivoks> it will allways ops untill you disable IDE port or apply that patch :)
[04:20] <ivoks> sata will work with 9.23, but i'm unable to boot from disk connected to jmicron sata controller
[04:20] <ivoks> otoh, i'm able to boot from ich8 port, but then kernel doesn't see disk
[04:21] <ivoks> anyway... i'll be back in couple of minutes
[04:50] <Mithrandir> BenC: you're aware of the "-9 panics on boot on lots of amd64 boxes"?
[04:50] <BenC> yeah, will be fixed tonight
[04:50] <BenC> amd64-agp is broken and will be disabled
[04:51] <Mithrandir> it wasn't enabled before?
[04:51] <BenC> ppl will have to wait for edgy+1 for that little tidbit :)
[04:51] <BenC> was new, came with the DRM/AGP update I did last week
[04:51] <BenC> but I think it's missing some x86_64 mmio stuff that's not in 2.6.17
[04:52] <Mithrandir> ok
[04:52] <Mithrandir> please do be very conservative with your next upload -- beta is Thursday.
[04:53] <mvo> BenC: I got a postinst failure today from 2.6.17-9-386 on a test dapper-edgy upgrade (post-inst returned error exit status 128). do you have any idea? or should I start digging into it?
[04:56] <BenC> mvo: update-initramfs failed?
[04:56] <BenC> or maybe update-grub failed
[04:56] <mvo> BenC: its not fully clear from the log, it looks like update-grub failed
[04:58] <mvo> I look into it, it is most likely not the kernels fault :)
[05:00] <BenC> yay, jmicron controller is working with that patche
[05:01] <BenC> [   31.340375]  Skipping disabled JMB363 IDE controller.
[05:02] <BenC> well, not exactly
[05:03] <zul> heh
[05:06] <Mithrandir> zul: had a chance to look at the stuff I put in git?
[05:07] <zul> not yet..will do at lunch time
[05:08] <zul> but from a quick glance it looks ok to me
[05:13] <ivoks_> BenC: you have to put SATA controller in AHCI mode
[05:15] <BenC> ivoks_: I have no way to do that...
[05:15] <BenC> no BIOS setup for the board
[05:15] <ivoks_> ah... pcie
[05:16] <ivoks_> i got the same mistake on first boot
[05:16] <ivoks_> went to bios to enable it to found out it's enabled
[05:16] <ivoks_> did reboot and, odd, it worked
[05:20] <ivoks_> bbl
[05:20] <ivoks_> bye
[05:20] <BenC> why would it need the SATA in ahci mode for the IDE to work :/
[05:20] <ivoks_> BenC: maybe linux driver is broken
[05:21] <BenC> PCI is broken
[05:21] <ivoks_> in bios, it says that making SATA controller ahci, IDE will be enabled
[05:21] <BenC> lspci is reporting that the io ports are disabled
[05:22] <ivoks_> heh
[05:22] <ivoks_> anyway, time to go home... i'll return here from home
[05:31] <mjg59> BenC: Something needs to switch the hardware into mixed PATA/SATA mode. Right now, the ahci driver does that - I'm not sure anything else does.
[05:32] <BenC> ahci driver is loaded
[05:33] <BenC> mjg59: The pci quirks are supposed to switch it to dualfn mode
[05:34] <BenC> I need to make sure the quirk is being run...adding a printk now
[05:34] <BenC> ahci is loadin and detecting the SATA bus's (no sata drive on it yet)
[05:37] <BenC> it may be that this card needs a bit more quirk than the built-in chipset, just because of the lack of BIOS support
[05:38] <mjg59> BenC: Ah, hm. Yes, sorry, you're right.
[05:41] <BenC> [   26.480781]  PCI: JMB36x: Enabling dual function on 0000:03:00.0
[05:41] <BenC> it's getting enabled
[05:41] <BenC> wtf
[05:42] <BenC> 03:00.0 SATA controller: JMicron Technologies, Inc. JMicron 20360/20363 AHCI Controller (rev 03)
[05:42] <BenC> 03:00.1 IDE interface: JMicron Technologies, Inc. JMicron 20360/20363 AHCI Controller (rev 03)
[05:42] <mjg59> Yeah, that's normal
[05:42] <BenC> just wondering why it's disabled
[05:42] <mjg59> Usually it's a fairly well-specced bios flag
[05:43] <mjg59> Do you have the specs for the hardware?
[05:43] <mjg59> In any case, there's a check in generic.c that looks to see what one of the PCI config registers contains, and uses that to deicde whether it's enabled or not
[05:46] <BenC> no, I have no specs for the hw
[05:49] <BenC> I just noticed that these two eval boards are different
[05:50] <BenC> I have a 363 and a 366
[05:53] <BenC> the achi works...just booted with my 300GB SATA drive connected to it (root drive)
[05:55] <BenC> IDE is disabled on the 366 aswell
[05:57] <mjg59> BenC: It's quite possible that the chip comes up with pata disabled and needs to be programmed by the bios to enable it
[05:58] <BenC> the JMicron BIOS screen shows it detecting the CDROM
[05:58] <mjg59> Hm.
[05:58] <BenC> I'll email them and find out
[05:58] <BenC> even if things are working for built-in chips, I need to get this external thing working too
[05:58] <mjg59> You might want to check that it is the pci configuration bit
[05:58] <BenC> the quirk might need some extra setup
[05:59] <BenC> but it enables the dualfn before the PCI scan, so I would expect the PCI subsystem to take care of things
[06:01] <mjg59> BenC: Presumably it's erroring out at the bit at line 220 of generic.c?
[06:01] <BenC> yeah, it is
[06:02] <BenC> but lspci also shows that the ioports are disabled
[06:02] <BenC> I wonder if I need to just get the jmicron.c
[06:03] <mjg59> BenC: Well, in that case surely the bios is never setting it up?
[06:04] <BenC> it shows values for the ports, but shows them as disabled
[06:04] <BenC>         Region 0: I/O ports at 7c00 [disabled]  [size=8] 
[06:04] <BenC>         Region 1: I/O ports at 7800 [disabled]  [size=4] 
[06:04] <BenC> etc...
[06:04] <BenC> or is [disabled]  just meaning that the OS isn't using them?
[06:06] <zul> is there a bios update for the board?
[06:08] <BenC> [  460.205680]  hdf: ATAPI 52X CD-ROM drive, 192kB Cache, UDMA(33)
[06:08] <BenC> answers that question
[06:08] <BenC> jmicron.c it is then
[06:09] <BenC> [  459.413154]  JMB361: 100% native mode on irq 66
[06:25] <zul> Mithrandir: looks good to me, ill do a test build tonight and upload
[08:16] <BenC> 2.6.17-10.24 uploading in about 10 minutes
[08:17] <ivoks> BenC: changes? :)
[08:17] <BenC> mjg59: I still don't have the mactel stuff in, but will next time around
[08:17] <BenC> ivoks: Seems my eval boards needed the jmicron.c module
[08:17] <BenC> things are working for me now
[08:17] <ivoks> ok
[08:18] <BenC> ivoks: You have ich8?
[08:18] <ivoks> yes
[08:18] <ivoks> actually, my client has it
[08:19] <BenC> is it working with current kernel?
[08:19] <ivoks> no
[08:19] <ivoks> it worked with old edgy kernel
[08:19] <svu_tv> BenC, will tomorrow's ISO have 2.16.17-10.24 ?
[08:19] <ivoks> hardly
[08:20] <svu_tv> or any kernel working with g5? :)
[08:20] <ivoks> BenC: it think it worked with -7.19
[08:22] <ivoks> since one guy told me that it works with dapper and it worked with edgy untill september 22.
[08:22] <BenC> svu_tv: installer needs to be rebuilt, so keep an eye on that, and you'll know when the CD's are updated
[08:22] <BenC> ivoks: So I guess I broke it with my backports
[08:22] <BenC> ivoks: Anyway to get access to a machine with that?
[08:23] <ivoks> i just backported everything to edgy
[08:23] <ivoks> errr... dapper
[08:23] <svu_tv> BenC, how could I keep an eye on the installer status? Is it available somewhere on the web?
[08:23] <ivoks> but i can give you access
[08:23] <ivoks> it still has -9-generic kernel + jmicron patch
[08:23] <BenC> that'll work
[08:25] <BenC> svu_tv: current installer has -9 udeb's, so either today's daily is working, or tomorrow's will
[08:26] <svu_tv> BenC, ok, I will try. thanks
[08:31] <ivoks> pidof: not found
[08:31] <ivoks> nice :)
[08:34] <BenC> ivoks: Is the 160G drive I see connected to the JMicron or ICH8 SATA controller?
[08:34] <ivoks> jmicron
[08:34] <ivoks> i doesn't work when it's connected to ich8
[08:35] <BenC> would you be able to reboot it to the ICH8 controller?
[08:35] <ivoks> tomorrow
[08:35] <ivoks> :/
[08:35] <BenC> the ICH8 is being detected and probed
[08:35] <BenC> ok
[08:35] <ivoks> that's true
[08:35] <ivoks> but it can't find disk
[08:36] <ivoks> i'll try finding another sata disk and conect it so we can test
[08:36] <BenC> excellent, thanks
[08:37] <ivoks> hooray! :)
[08:39] <BenC> I think I'm overloading the box I put those JMicron boards in
[08:39] <BenC> it already had 4 SATA channels, and 4 IDE ports...now I've added another 8 IDE ports, and 4 SATA channels
[08:40] <ivoks> lol
[08:40] <zul> heh kablooie soon
[08:55] <ivoks> maybe we should use BenC's computer for internet backup :)
[08:56] <ivoks> ah, forgot something...
[08:57] <ivoks> BenC: http://kerneltrap.org/node/7153 ; search for jmicron :/
[08:57] <ivoks> 5 patched for jmicron :)
[08:57] <ivoks> patches
[08:58] <BenC> ivoks: With the jmicron.c, most of the patches aren't needed
[08:58] <ivoks> agree
[10:54] <zul> later
[10:55] <Mithrandir> zul: apparently, my problem is related to the tap:aio interface.  Using file:/ works fine
[11:25] <`ph8> hi guys!
[11:26] <`ph8> I saw a *very* promising looking conversation earlier that looked like BenC had figured out the jmicron bug
[11:26] <`ph8> care to confirm/deny? :p
[11:26] <`ph8> I've only got two days till i go to uni anyway so i won't be able to install in that time - would be nice to know it's making its way into a build though
[11:57] <BenC> ph8: -10.24 is working for me
[11:57] <BenC> it's uploaded
[11:59] <`ph8> fantastic1
[11:59] <`ph8> and it'll take a few days to get into d-i for install?
[12:00] <BenC> yeah
[12:00] <`ph8> mega
[12:00] <`ph8> cheers
[12:00] <`ph8> do you know if we need any compat bios settings? like ahci over ide?
[12:00] <`ph8> s/over/instead of
[12:03] <BenC> nope, the pci quirks and jmicron ide driver should handle all that
[12:04] <`ph8> fantastico
[12:04] <`ph8> where do we send the gift basket? ;)
[12:04] <`ph8> thanks though, i know you worked hard on it for us :o)
[12:05] <`ph8> Should be ok for me to post on the bug report that it's fixed?
[12:05] <`ph8> if you havne't already, my datacentre's been hit by lightning and i don't have email access at the moment
[12:05] <`ph8> apparently they don't have a lightning rod? just a guess... :p
