[07:23] <whurley> Is BenC around? 
[07:24] <infinity> It's 1:30am where he is, so probably not.
[07:25] <infinity> (East coast USA)
[07:26] <whurley> thansk
[07:26] <whurley> :)
[10:05] <AnAnt> there is a bug in usplash with vga= option, that I don't get anything on tty[1-6]  after boot. is it going to be fixed in the stable release ?
[10:06] <AnAnt> also, I notice that the splash screen doesn't display messages in it like in Dapper, is that a bug ?
[10:18] <damned> hi all. can anybody suggest: 32-bit version EdgyB1 works fine on AMD64 3200+ (AM2 Socket, 2000Mhz), but 64-bit version EdgyB1 shows that processor have only 1000Mhz (no throttling, power management, and other cool things). BTW, system works very slow.
[10:22] <infinity> Err, the system does frequency scaling by default.
[10:22] <infinity> Load the box up with something demanding and then check the frequency.
[10:23] <damned> infinity: already tryed.
[10:23] <damned> infinity: nothing changes.
[10:26] <infinity> What does "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies" say?
[10:28] <damned> 2000000 1800000 1000000
[10:28] <infinity> And scaling_driver and scaling_governor?
[10:28] <damned> scaling_driver: powernow-k8
[10:29] <damned> scaling_governor: ondemand
[10:29] <infinity> Kay, that should all be working smashingly, then.
[10:29] <infinity> Seriously, try really, really hard to load it up again, and keep reading scaling_cur_freq to see if it changes.
[10:30] <damned> infinity: but it doesn't goes up even when i unpack 6gb tar.gz file... it is very strange.
[10:30] <infinity> On my box, "find /" in a gnome-terminal is enough to blip up to max CPU speed for a few seconds.
[10:31] <infinity> (Doing it in gnome-terminal being the critical bit, since pango is so resource-hungry... "find /" at a console doesn't scale the CPU, cause it's mostly disk access)
[10:32] <infinity> As root, you can try "echo performance > scaling_governor" and see if the CPU shoots up to 2GHz and stays there.
[10:32] <infinity> (Though not a recommended setting for power consumption reasons)
[10:35] <AnAnt> anyone knows the bug about splash screen with vga= option with virtual console ?
[10:35] <infinity> AnAnt: It's going to be fixed before release, yes.
[10:37] <infinity> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/61718
[10:37] <AnAnt> infinity: ok, how about the boot messages not appearing in the splash ?
[10:37] <infinity> The messages not being there is a feature, not a bug.
[10:37] <infinity> Not entirely sure I agree with it, but it's not my call.
[10:37] <AnAnt> infinity: no way to change it ?
[10:38] <AnAnt> infinity: no way that I can change it ?
[10:38] <AnAnt> infinity: and will it be possible that I press ALT+F1 to see the messages ?
[10:38] <AnAnt> infinity: because now ALT+F1 doesn't work, gives me a wierd screen
[10:38] <infinity> See if the messages come back if you take "quiet" off your kernel command line.
[10:38] <infinity> But I'm not sure if that'll work.  haven't tested.
[10:39] <AnAnt> infinity: ok, thanks
[10:39] <AnAnt> infinity: how about the ALT+F1 as I sometimes need it too
[10:39] <infinity> Not sure what bug you're referring to there.
[10:39] <infinity> There are no messages printed during a default Ubuntu boot at all.
[10:39] <infinity> Not on the console, or in usplash.
[10:40] <infinity> You shouldn't see anything on tty1 until the login prompt appears.
[10:40] <AnAnt> infinity: in Dapper, I press ALT+F1 (then ALT+F8) to see boot messages in console
[10:40] <infinity> Again, removing "quiet" should change that.
[10:40] <AnAnt> during the boot
[10:40] <infinity> Yes, I know.
[10:40] <infinity> And I told you how it is in Edgy.
[10:40] <AnAnt> aha
[10:40] <AnAnt> k
[10:40] <AnAnt> will try that
[10:40] <AnAnt> thanks !
[11:22] <slytherin> I am facing problem with bluetooth. The pairing between phone and PC is not working at all. This is happening for last 2 days. Does anyone know if latest kernel upgrade has caused any problem?

[03:54] <BenC> broadcom is a very strange company
[03:55] <zul> how so?
[03:55] <BenC> I tried getting access to their docsafe account claiming that I was a company working on a produce using their 43xx chipset
[03:55] <BenC> told them I needed specs so I could write drivers for a custom embedded OS
[03:56] <BenC> they told me to use a competitors chipset instead because they couldn't get me docs
[03:56] <zul> lol
[03:56] <tonfa> IP problems ?
[03:56] <BenC> their claim was that they didn't want to support me if I couldn't get it working
[03:57] <BenC> even through I told them I didn't want support, just docs
[04:00] <BenC> hard to believe a company can stay in business like that
[04:01] <tonfa> were you convincing when you said you were a company ?
[04:01] <tonfa> because simple googling might found you're a linux kernel hacker
[04:01] <BenC> Yes, I actually own a US corporation, and used that
[04:01] <BenC> got a federal tax ID and everything
[04:01] <tonfa> ok
[04:01] <BenC> even has a website :)
[04:05] <zul> oooh...
[04:06] <zul> BenCollins Internation Inc. :)
[04:06] <zul> sorry...just a bit tired 
[04:06] <kylem> lol.
[04:08] <BenC> hehe
[05:56] <jbailey> BenC: Around?
[05:58] <BenC> jbailey: yeah
[08:11] <whurley> BenC: Infinity recommend I speak with you about a potential bug I found. Would you mind pm'ing me when you have a moment? 
[08:18] <zul> BenC: ping fs/nfs/inode.c: In function 'init_once':
[08:18] <zul> fs/nfs/inode.c:1116: error: 'struct nfs_inode' has no member named 'open_states'
[08:19] <zul> fs/nfs/inode.c:1116: error: 'struct nfs_inode' has no member named 'delegation'
[08:19] <zul> fs/nfs/inode.c:1116: error: 'struct nfs_inode' has no member named 'delegation_state'
[08:25] <zul> BenC: never mind...found a fix
[09:34] <gemeindebau> hello. i apologize for the intrusion (as i do not know anything of kernels). do i understand correctly that the kernel 2.6.17-10.24 is not implemented in edgy beta, and if i need the jmicron fix then i must download the latest "daily" release?
[09:38] <gemeindebau> in the official release notes i have only found that the kernel is .17
[09:44] <BenC> whurley: as away
[09:45] <zul> wheee...i can go home in 15 min
[09:54] <gemeindebau> please have mercy on my soul :) i have a new computer, limited bandwidth and no linux kernel know-how at all...
[09:55] <gemeindebau> i meant: limited download volume
[10:02] <BenC> gemeindebau: I just checked the amd64 desktop beta cd and it has 10.24-generic
[10:02] <BenC> so it should work for JMicron
[10:03] <gemeindebau> BenC: thank you for your reply. i may assume that the i386 cd does use the same kernel?
[10:03] <BenC> I be pretty positive of it
[10:04] <BenC> *I'd
[10:07] <gemeindebau> thanks again for your reply. i just started the torrent and am looking forward to converting my paperweight to a computer. :)
[10:08] <gemeindebau> good bye
[11:24] <whurley> Hi BenC, I'm back :)
