[12:46] <crimsun> err, am I supposed to be getting error spew when attempting to checkout ubuntu-edgy-updates.git?
[12:47] <crimsun> (checking out ubuntu-2.6.git completes successfully)
[12:54] <crimsun> hmm, I guess so, since checking out ubuntu-edgy completes successfully, too. Probably the "shouldn't see" privilege. :)
[01:02] <qt> test
[01:02] <qt>  Hi all. How do I tell what kind of phy device my onboard 3Com 3C910 chip is attached to?
[02:32] <zul> morning
[02:40] <ChrisBradley> does anyone here work with the module assistant?
[04:53] <BenC> kylem: ping
[04:54] <kylem> yo dude
[04:54] <BenC> how's things?
[04:54] <kylem> good good
[04:54] <kylem> finally feeling a bit better
[04:54] <kylem> trying to take care of some administriva atm.
[04:55] <BenC> good deal
[04:55] <BenC> when you get back to kernel stuff, feel free to upload your -proposed stuff if you want
[04:56] <tepsipakki> does that include the tg3 backport for dapper, among other things?-)
[04:57] <kylem> okie doke
[04:57] <kylem> tepsipakki, yeppers
[04:58] <tepsipakki> kylem: sweet :)
[05:27] <zul> oh xensource how much i despise you sometimes
[06:00] <Mithrandir> BenC: any plans on fixing the resume/switch_console stuff that mjg59 asked you about a month ago?
[06:09] <BenC> Mithrandir: Yeah, working on it now
[06:09] <Mithrandir> great, thanks.
[06:12] <BenC> kylem: Am I remembering right that you had a patch for feisty for bug #36885?
[06:12] <BenC> https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/36885
[06:12] <BenC> shit, wrong bug
[06:12] <BenC> https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/33950
[06:12] <BenC> that one
[06:14] <kylem> yeppers.
[06:14] <BenC> kylem: Is it in your git, or is there a patch?
[06:14] <kylem> i think it's in git.
[06:14] <kylem> i'm not quite sure what do to with it, since you said that people were expecting different things.
[06:15] <BenC> it's an oddball bug, but I think we're stuck keeping things the same as dapper/edgy
[06:15] <kylem> k.
[06:15] <kylem> http://people.ubuntu.com/~kyle/hdaps_invert_no_smapi_feisty.diff
[06:16] <BenC> would be nice if the axis was configurable at runtime instead of this stupid table of hope-it-works-for-everyone crap
[06:16] <BenC> kylem: thanks
[06:16] <kylem> hmm, could fairly easily make it a sysfs attribute if you want
[06:17] <BenC> it's not possible to have more than one of these devices in a system is it?
[06:17] <kylem> i would doubt it.
[06:17] <kylem> unless the driver eventually becomes some kind of generic thing.
[06:17] <BenC> yeah, sysfs changeable axi configuration would be nice then
[06:18] <kylem> should be fairly easy.
[06:19] <BenC> basically add separate x/y axis inversion and make then both module_param's
[06:21] <BenC> kylem: I'm willing to drop the dmi table if we can configure it
[06:22] <kylem> hrm.
[06:23] <BenC> well, drop the dmi table changes we have in dapper/edgy in favor of this
[06:23] <BenC> leave what's there
[08:41] <BenC> Mithrandir: ping
[08:42] <Mithrandir> hi BenC 
[08:42] <BenC> Mithrandir: Hey, can you let me know if ata_piix still doesn't work for you on 2.6.20-3?
[08:42] <BenC> re: bug #64433
[08:43] <Mithrandir> BenC: oh, I probably never had the problem, but it was marked as fixed by the kernel upload and it was a targetted bug, so I closed it (it shows up in my listings, which gets annoying)
[08:44] <BenC> It's re-targetted to 2.6.20 for some reason, probably because I removed the patch
[08:45] <BenC> Mithrandir: Sorry, I misread it as you having the same issue
[08:45] <BenC> I'll close it, I'm pretty sure ata_piix is the right driver, and works now
[08:45] <Mithrandir> it was added to 2.6.19 by Christian Kellner
[08:45] <mjg59> BenC: If both ata_piix and ahci can drive the chip (which they almost certainly can), ahci is preferable
[08:46] <BenC> mjg59: Just wondering why 0x268{1,2} are in ahci and 0x2680 is specifically in ata_piix
[08:46] <BenC> just seems like someone made a conscious decision
[08:47] <BenC> or maybe it's just been overlooked
[08:47] <mjg59> It's quite possible that > 0x2680 no longer have piix-compatibility
[08:47] <mjg59> But that doesn't explain why it isn't in ahci
[08:47] <mjg59> It's an utter mess. 
[08:47] <mjg59> We probably ought to be keying off the device class - that ought to be different for ahci devices
[09:16] <BenC> mjg59: ping, bug #75305
[09:16] <BenC> does it work with 2.6.20-3?
[09:17] <mjg59> BenC: Haven't had a chance to try
[09:35] <BenC> Mithrandir: pm/console fix is in git now
[09:35] <Mithrandir> BenC: great, thanks.
[09:36] <BenC> Mithrandir: When's the latest I can upload a new kernel to not much with Herd 2 for you?
[09:36] <BenC> s/much/muck/
[09:36] <Mithrandir> BenC: preferably before next week.
[09:38] <BenC> can do
[10:56] <gnomefreak> BenC: are you around for a minute. i have a bad initramfs-tools bug and can use advice if you have any
[10:56] <BenC> is it the ide-generic bug?
[10:57] <gnomefreak> kernel no boot
[10:57] <BenC> probably
[10:57] <gnomefreak> i get a mdadm error 
[10:57] <BenC> add ide0=noprobe ide1=noprobe to command line
[10:57] <gnomefreak> its only 2.6.20
[10:57] <BenC> see if that fixes it
[10:57] <gnomefreak> add that to boot options?
[10:58] <BenC> initramfs-tools wont update any initrd's except the newest one when updated
[10:58] <BenC> yeah
[10:58] <gnomefreak> ok gonna try this
[11:16] <gnomefreak> BenC: doesnt fix it it still wont boot
