[12:28] <bluefoxicy> I'm noticing ubuntu's 2.6.19 kernel...
[12:43] <bluefoxicy> wtf, I thought ingo's realtime stuff went into 2.6.19, it's not there
[12:47] <bluefoxicy> ah o.o
[12:47] <bluefoxicy> why is CONFIG_PREEMPT not set
[12:47] <bluefoxicy> i.e. milisecond-latency kernel-level preemption
[12:47] <bluefoxicy> on 2.6.19 feisty
[01:01] <crimsun> it was discussed for -lowlatency but not for -{386,generic,server*}
[01:01] <kylem> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-November/022755.html
[01:01] <crimsun> apparently it was not enabled for -lowlatency as of 7.10
[01:55] <BenC> whoops
[01:55] <BenC> the PREEMPT portion of my config rewrite didn't take :/
[01:55] <BenC> fix in git
[02:02] <crimsun> thanks, BenC, I figured that's what happened (but it afforded an interesting opportunity to test the HZ change independently)
[02:14] <zul> time for more sp
[02:15] <BenC> stack pointers?
[02:15] <zul> er...yeah...stack pointers..
[02:16] <infinity> shower puffs?
[02:17] <zul> super powers
[02:17] <zul> only 2 more seasons to go
[02:49] <BenC> sweet, gregkh is starting a kernel-packages mailing list
[02:51] <zul> public?
[02:52] <kylem> BenC, that's a good idea.
[02:53] <BenC> yeah, it will be public
[02:54] <BenC> it may be that subscribers have to be approved, but archives are open
[02:54] <zul> cool
[03:01] <kylem> ok, all 4 trees build generic ok.
[08:51] <fabbione> git pull
[08:51] <fabbione> fatal: unexpected EOF
[08:51] <fabbione> Fetch failure: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-2.6.git
[08:51] <fabbione> No changes.
[08:51] <fabbione> BenC: ^^
[09:59] <tepsipakki> does the coming kernel release for dapper include the fix for https://launchpad.net/bugs/72696 ?
[10:01] <tepsipakki> "tg3: doesn't recognize the network device on Fujitsu Esprimo E5915"
[10:01] <fabbione> tepsipakki: just check in ubuntu-dapper.git
[10:01] <tepsipakki> hmm, ok
[10:07] <tepsipakki> syncing u-d.git ...
[10:26] <tepsipakki> done. Are the pci-id's in the driver header (ie. tg3.h in this case)?
[10:26] <tepsipakki> can't find 167b in it
[10:33] <tepsipakki> the changelog is not updated since the previous release so maybe the mergers are yet to be done
[12:23] <dade`> if i want to change the default git kernel config what should i change ?
[12:23] <dade`> i tried editing debian/config/i386/config
[12:24] <dade`> but does not work
[12:28] <dade`> I set the PM_DEBUG option to yes, but the generated kernel installs a config file in /boot that does not have that option on
[12:52] <dade`> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[12:52] <dade`> this page say it should
[03:57] <kylem> be back in 20, need to venture forth into the snowy wasteland to find some coffee.
[04:11] <BenC> I need give initramfs-tools a good larting
[04:12] <BenC> it uses hooks script filenames as variable names in shell..so you can't have a script called foo-bar-2.1 for example
[04:14] <Mithrandir> just do tr - _ on the name.
[04:19] <BenC> I didn't want to have to change initramfs
[04:19] <BenC> looks like I have to though, because it's actually a bug, IMO
[04:29] <kylem> http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/kernel/linux-2.6-silence-noise.patch?rev=1.2&view=auto
[05:10] <kylem> BenC, ^-- i see that message in a lot of bug reports, rh seems to feel it's unnecessary enough to hide from users...
[05:10] <BenC> kylem: Yeah, most of those we have covered...the rest would be nice too
[05:10] <BenC> I see the PCI resource one on my laptop
[05:59] <kylem> hmm fedora has signed kernel modules.
[06:02] <pmjdebruijn> kylem, they have had that for a while
[06:02] <pmjdebruijn> kylem, RHEL4 has that too
[07:26] <siretart> kylem: signed kernel modules? how do they do key management?
[07:27] <kylem> haven't read enough to know.
[07:30] <siretart> kylem: btw, while I catch you here, do you think you can upload kel's wpasupplicant upload, or shall we better ask someone else for now?
[07:31] <kylem> ah, i can do that now.
[07:32] <kylem> gotta upgrade my chroot...
[07:32] <siretart> cool. thanks!
[10:05] <elektranox> do I have to build a new kernel for making kernel modules?
[10:18] <BenC> elektranox: No
[10:18] <BenC> elektranox: Do this: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[10:18] <BenC> elektranox: That's all you need to compile modules against your running kernel
[10:22] <elektranox> BenC: But I get the warning, that make doesn't found an modules entry
[10:22] <BenC> maybe you aren't compiling it right then
[10:23] <BenC> www.rafb.net/paste/
[10:23] <elektranox> I use the makefile of the module :/
[10:23] <BenC> use that to paste the entire out of the build you are trying
[10:23] <BenC> maybe the module is broken then, or perhaps you have to set the directory for the headers
[10:24] <elektranox> should I translate the error to english, or are you able to understand german?
[10:29] <elektranox> BenC: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/WfmJWX63.html
[10:30] <BenC> elektranox: Can you do it with "LC_ALL=C make" ?
[10:30] <BenC> nm, I see the trans
[10:33] <BenC> elektranox: ls -l /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
[10:33] <BenC> show me that please
[10:34] <elektranox> the dir is empty
[10:34] <BenC> it shouldn't be a directory, it should be a symlink
[10:34] <BenC> show me the output of uname -r please
[10:35] <elektranox> 2.6.17-10-386
[10:35] <BenC> ls -l /usr/src/
[10:35] <BenC> and that command
[10:36] <elektranox> linux-headers-2.6.17-10
[10:36] <elektranox> linux-headers-2.6.17-10-386
[10:36] <elektranox> linux-source-2.6.17.tar.bz2
[10:37] <BenC> ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-386/
[10:37] <BenC> ls -l /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10-386/
[10:37] <BenC> and both of those
[10:37] <BenC> put those in pastebin
[10:37] <BenC> elektranox: Output is too much for channel
[10:37] <elektranox> ok
[10:38] <BenC> well, it should be...if it isn't, then there's a problem :)
[10:40] <elektranox> BenC: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/lINqxv40.html
[10:41] <BenC> elektranox: Looks like you've broken something on your system
[10:42] <BenC> elektranox: /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build is supposed to be a symlink to /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10-386, but on your system, it's a directory
[10:42] <elektranox> BenC: why? what's wrong?
[10:42] <elektranox> I think I created it as dir
[10:42] <elektranox> because it doesn't exist before
[10:42] <BenC> that's because the linux-headers package creates it
[10:43] <BenC> rmdir that directory
[10:43] <BenC> then do: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10-386 /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-386/build
[10:43] <BenC> that'll fix it
[10:45] <elektranox> :) It works now
[12:12] <zul> throwing up in the dark is fun
