jbaileysleep is supposed to be one second...12:31
jbaileyYou're thinking usleep.12:31
Bluhdaha12:31
Bluhdstrangely enough, sleep under different OS's takes milliseconds12:32
BluhdI had no idea there was another sleep method12:32
jbaileyIt really shouldn't.  I think POSIX.1-2001 says seconds..12:33
Bluhdhmm12:33
jbaileyapt-get install susv3 for reference. =)12:33
Bluhdwhat is the susv3 package?12:33
jbaileyPosix reference.12:34

BenCdimach: is that just a module?01:20
dimachIt is part of the kernel. .config can be set to CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN=m . This means it is a loadable module, right? Can I build it as a module?01:24
dimachI actually need this guy CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_KEYSPAN_USA19QI01:24
BenCdimach: Odd, I should enable all those01:27
dimachYou mean I have to build whole kernel to enable support for this?01:28
dimachI'll be back01:32
=== datten_ is now known as datten

=== kylem thinks turning off softlockup detection is a good idea.
BenCkylem: but wont that just make the lockup happen without notification?03:57
BenCkylem: I show 8 changes from you in my latest pull from your k.o tree...that correct?03:57
BenCHEAD SHA: 80b8e66e4b7ed12b8918c4440e37fd0bc898bd1503:58

mjg59BenC: You never seem to have committed the patch I sent that adds support for the Apple webcam04:01
BenCmjg59: It will go into edgy-updates, I didn't have time to add it before release because of kernel freeze04:01
mjg59BenC: Sorry, to feisty04:01
mjg59Or am I just missing it in the log?04:01
BenCmjg59: nope, it's missing...it wasn't in the mactel patches, is it separate?04:02
mjg59Yeah04:02
BenCok, I'll find it04:02
mjg59Should really try to push that one upstream04:03
BenCkylem: Well, I pulled from yours on k.o and got no more updates, so hopefully it's all good :)04:03
mjg59I added the code for the firmware loading04:03
kylemBenC, what's the top commit?04:03

kylemweird.04:04
mjg59BenC: Oh, I like what you've done with the ubuntu directory04:05
mjg59BenC: That's for external drivers?04:05
BenCmj59: Yep...I no touchy touchy the stock code, except in rare cases04:05
mjg59Nifty04:05
=== BenC just noticed today that up-apic-off-by-default was not enabled in edgy
BenCwhich only affects the -386 kernel, so probably not important04:06
mjg59apic basically works nowadays04:07
kjetilk_BTW, I had this backport wish the other day: https://bugs.launchpad.net/products/edgy-backports/+bug/7397704:08
BenCyeah, I'm going to back out the patch I have been carrying for that04:09
kjetilk_where I was referred to the kernel maintainers04:09
kjetilk_I could have sworn I just heard sound from the box, but I'm not sure :-)04:09
BenCkjetilk_: Don't think backporting alsa for edgy will ever happen04:10
BenCkjetilk_: we're little more than 4 months away from feisty release, people can wait :)04:10
BenCtoo much work just to save a couple months of waiting04:10
kjetilk_hehe, right :-)04:10
kylemkjetilk_, support for that is in edgy-updates.04:11
kylemit's already been backported.04:11
kjetilk_kylem: oh, cool04:11
kjetilk_hmmm, so I need to have both that backport and the ipw3945 fix...04:13
kjetilk_uhm, I couldn't find kernel packages on http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy-backports/allpackages04:16
