exobuzzare their rules which govern what patches should go with ubuntu kernel? Would something like high resolution timer support +dynamic ticks" be outside of the kind of patches ubuntu accepts for its kernel ?of patch 02:01
exobuzzignore text after "?". my mind empied into this text gadget in the wrong order02:02
exobuzztheir=there02:02
exobuzz:)02:02
fabbioneexobuzz: it depends how intrusive it is02:05
exobuzzI'm referring this this patch http://www.tglx.de/projects/hrtimers/2.6.17/ it doesnt apply cleanly to the already patched ubuntu kernel (I had to tweak it). it's very useful for laptop users though as it can a) stop the whining b) decrase running temperature when idle, and c) increase battery life02:05
exobuzzit mostly applies but i had to manually apply a few parts02:06
mjg59We won't be applying it for edgy02:07
mjg59It's not sufficiently well tested yet02:07
exobuzzok02:07
exobuzzparts of the high resolution timer stuff is already in the main kernel i believe. i guess the dynticks stuff will get there soon02:10
mjg59Yes02:11
mjg59But we're releasing next month02:11
exobuzzsure..  I didnt mean by my last line to try and persuide you. just a remark02:12
exobuzzpersuade02:12
tonfaexobuzz: for dynticks to be useful you need to fix userspace02:12
tonfaand that isn't done in gnome 2.1602:12
exobuzztonfa: how so ?02:12
mjg59We'll almost certainly be using it in edgy+102:12
mjg59exobuzz: tickless isn't useful unless userspace wakes up less often than your Hz rate02:13
tonfahttps://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=20494802:13
tonfasee that bug02:13
exobuzzok02:13
exobuzz"userspace sucks" nice title :-)02:14
exobuzzfabbione: thanks for the mdadm fixes 02:17
fabbioneno problem02:18
exobuzzis their something specific in an ubuntu kernel which sets resolution for usplash ? I build my own kernel from ubuntu kernel sources, but it doesn't set the same resolution02:22
mjg59No, it's all done in userspace02:25
tonfaexobuzz: same grub entry ?02:26

tfheen(sorry to nag)05:53

BenCtfheen: checking05:57

BenCtfheen: Was wrong, didn't notice some other bugs :)05:58
BenCtfheen: I need testing on 6018305:58
BenCit should be fixed in -9.23 kernel, but I haven't heard anything back05:58
BenCtfheen: Marked three of them fixed released05:59
tfheenBenC: ok.  If you'd care to prod Colin about 60183, that'd be good.06:01

tonfaI just installed the package and got /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.17.tar.bz206:38
tonfaand i untarred it06:38
tonfais there a command you have to run to prepare the debian/ubuntu build system ?06:40
BenCtonfa: The linux-source-2.6.17 probably isn't what you want06:42
BenCyou either want the "apt-get source linux-source-2.6.17" or the git tree06:42
tonfawhat do I need then ?06:43

mjg59Or an sd card?06:49
mjg59Ok06:49
mjg59Unsupported06:49
mjg59Only MMC and SD works right now06:49
BenCwhat?!!?06:50
mjg59xd and smartmedia are basically the same06:50
BenCso xd doesn't work?06:50
mjg59Right06:50
mjg59Somebody needs to write a protocol implementation for it06:50
=== BenC volunteers
mjg59Heh06:50
mjg59I've got a disassembly of the Windows driver06:50
mjg59I can dig that out and send it to you06:51
BenCyeah, that'd be nice06:51
BenCI have an mmc card to test, let me try that too06:51
BenChrrm, I had one...need to find it06:51
mjg59A kernel xd/smartmedia layer would be nice06:51
mjg59Like the mmc layer06:51
mjg59Then just plug in the individual driver06:51
BenCsweet, mmc works06:53

mhbhello08:53
mhbI wonder if it would be possible to add a "firmware" file to /lib/firmware for Edgy08:54
mhbthe DVB-T card I own requests this (http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/dvb-usb-wt220u-02.fw) file, although in Edgy there's only dvb-usb-wt220u-01.fw08:56
mhbso I think it would be fine if this file was added to Ubuntu too, if it's legal of course08:57
mhbif this is not the right channel for such questions, I would be glad if you redirected me to another person/channel then08:59
zulmhb: i can look into it but please open a bug in launchpad for tracking pruposes09:00
