justin420hi all. when following the directions on http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Kernel_Compilation_Dapper ; one of the very first steps says to change in your xorg.conf file, the device section from "nvidia" or "fglrx" to vesa or ati or nv, I tried using nv and vesa and both times it says that device is already in use? can anyone help with that?09:56
crimsunjustin420: #ubuntu, please. You need to stop (g|k|x)dm.10:33
justin420x is stopped, as far as i can tell. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop10:34
crimsunthen check what grabbed /dev/nvidiactl* or whatever. And really, #ubuntu, please.10:35
justin420ok then, thanks for the "help" :/10:36

marcin_anthi guys10:49
marcin_antI got few questions to kernel maintainers10:50
marcin_antI got asus p5b deluxe mobo which has two gigabit nics - marvell yukon10:50
marcin_antone nic is currently supported while other is not (although theoretically module with driver is in kernel package)10:51
marcin_antI reported bug in launchpad #6220610:52
marcin_antit's still unconfirmed - while:10:52
marcin_ant1. there is driver module available (on GPL) for download on marvell.com10:53
marcin_ant2. there is also solution on kerneltrap thread how to patch kernel with this driver10:54
gnomefreakmarcin_ant: its a weekend ask tomorrow you might get one10:54
marcin_antproblem is that this procedure is overcomplicated for usual user so it could be nice to provide this as package10:54
marcin_antgnomefreak: hehh this is why I got some free time to spend on things like this... ;>10:55
marcin_antgnomefreak: I'm not fulltime kernel developer ;)10:55
gnomefreakmarcin_ant: thats when i suggest you file a bug 10:55
marcin_antgnomefreak: I already did #6220610:56
crimsunbug 6220610:57
marcin_antgnomefreak: now there is solution for this bug but unfortunately I don't have time (and propably enough skills) to prepare package or patch for kernel pkg10:57
crimsunit's already fixed in git, marcin_ant.10:57
marcin_antand this is why I wanted to ask if someone could patch it or help me to provide solution to ubuntu community10:58
crimsunhi. it's already fixed in git.10:58
marcin_antcrimsun: hmm what does it mean for ubuntu users?10:58
crimsunthe new kernel wasn't rolled out for Edgy, but it was certainly ready prior to Edgy's release.10:58
crimsunhttp://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-edgy.git;a=commit;h=495b8e09e9b02a0cf3bba76789b55b04a72092e410:59
crimsunplease triage the bug as a duplicate, thanks.10:59
marcin_antcrimsun: please read more carefully, thanks.11:01
marcin_antcrimsun: this url goes to fix that is related to some marvell pata controller11:01
marcin_antcrimsun: while my bug is about marvell NIC controller (gigabit network interface)11:02
crimsunah, sorry11:02
crimsunin that case, generate a git changeset and mail it to Ben11:02
marcin_antholy crap... so now I need to learn how to do this ;) ?11:03
crimsunit's not difficult11:04
marcin_antcrimsun: ok, I will read howtos and try... be prepared for some lame questions from me ;)11:05
crimsunmarcin_ant: the topic should have some links11:05
marcin_antcrimsun: yes I got them...11:05
marcin_antcrimsun: ok but tell me one thing now.. when this driver is already available in kernel (but doesn't work)11:06
=== RichJ [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
marcin_antand there is some 'external' driver that provides solution - then should it become a part of kernel or maybe it should be some additional package?11:06
marcin_antlike packages with nvidia drivers etc....11:07
RichJintel 965, em64t, noacpi set in menu.lst, boots now w/o locking, (ubuntu 6.06), but doesn't recognize any hardware11:07
crimsunmarcin_ant: fixes need to be made to the in-kernel source. It's unlikely that external drivers will replace, wholescale, what's in the kernel, though it's not my call.11:07
marcin_antcrimsun: ok I will try to do this in some free time11:08
