[02:43] <bluefoxicy> mdz:  nah, it doesn't skin and eat kittens, it just cries about missed IRQs
[02:44] <bluefoxicy> mdz:  the related bug on the kernel bug tracker says it sometimes breaks other (perfectly working) hardware; but I haven't personally seen that symptom
[03:19] <kinema> Are there any 2.6.18 kernel packages availiable anywhere?  The module for my NIC wasn't mereged until 2.6.18rcsomething
[03:40] <gnomefreak> kinema: kernels.org
[03:42] <kinema> I would tell you that I was looking for packaged beta Ubuntu kernels but I'm assuming that you already knew that.
[03:44] <zul> no there is no 2.6.18 for ubuntu
[03:47] <Trae> how do you do the apt-get install kenrel-headers`uname-r`  trick.  (or is what I typed it?)
[03:48] <tfheen> Trae: type it just as that, yes.
[03:48] <Trae> tfheen, thank you kindly
[03:49] <infinity> s/kernel/linux/
[03:49] <tfheen> except it's linux-headers- and not kenrel-headers . :-P
[03:49] <tfheen> (not the dah)
[03:49] <tfheen> dash, even
[03:49] <Trae> oh
[03:50] <gnomefreak> tfheen: i subscribed you to a bug report more of a request someone filed to update opera in commercial repos. Its not important but i understadn you were the dev that did that
[03:51] <infinity> Even better would be "apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r | sed -e 's/[0-9\.-] *//'` ... But I guess that's slightly harder to communicate.
[03:51] <tfheen> gnomefreak: yes, I'll tend to it when edgy is out.  I'm absolutely drowned in the release now.
[03:52] <gnomefreak> i figured that
[03:52] <gnomefreak> just wanted to let you know about it
[03:52] <tfheen> yeah, np
[03:53] <tfheen> it's not fallen off my radar, just not prioritised ATM
[03:53] <Trae> hmm shouldn't apt-get install linux-headers-`uname-r`   automagically install the right one?
[03:54] <Trae> errm... linux-headers`uname -r`  heh
[03:54] <infinity> Trae: It'll install the right one for now, but if you have the "linux-686" and "linux-headers-686" packages installed (for instance, pick your flavour), then the kernel and headers will get updated together with security updates, etc.
[03:54] <infinity> Trae: linux-headers-`uname -r` even.  You missed the dash.
[03:54] <Trae> hmm thought I tried it both ways
[03:55] <infinity> (Note that there's nothing magic about `uname -r`, it's just shell substitution that means "echo the output of the command 'uname -r'")
[03:55] <Trae> there it goes
[03:55] <Trae> I must have typed something wrong
[03:55] <Trae> hehe
[03:55] <Trae> sorry and thanks
[04:08] <gnomefreak> oh cool that never worked for me before :)
[08:06] <scoates> anyone particularly good with kernel modules? http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1595813&forum_id=278158 .. this is on edgy
