KenSentMeI think there is a problem with the new 2.6.17-11 kernel along with nvidia kernel module. X won't start anymore and there are more people with this problem11:19

kylemmjg59, you are so full of the awesome. thanks!03:11
kylemmjg59, dscape ipw3945 is the one not-requiring the binary daemon, correct?03:11

kylemBenC, also, i'm thinking of switching feisty from doing MMCONFIG with fallbacks to whitelist MMCONFIG on some chipsets, but use DIRECT pci access by default, with fallback to BIOS. i've noticed quite a few bugs where turning on pci=nommconf fixes bugs. :(04:22

kylemfabbione, aside from the delay, how was your trip home?04:25
fabbionekylem: ok i would say...04:26
fabbionemanaged to sleep almost all the flight04:26
fabbionebut i did miss a penguin to cuttle...04:26
kylemyeah yeah, i'll ship it this week, relax a bit. ;P04:27
fabbionehahaha04:27
fabbionemight as well wait May at UDS04:27
fabbionereall04:27
fabbioneit's not worth shipping 04:27
kylemwell, netwinder with it.04:28
mjg59http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsvista/features/details/networking.mspx04:28
fabbioneup to you really.. 04:28
mjg59Find the "network mapping" section04:28
mjg59Wonder how it does that04:28
kylemhaze of bong smoke, etc.04:29
kylemUPNP probably04:30
fabbionenmap ?04:31
fabbionethere are small and simple tools to do stuff like that04:32
fabbioneeven one for linux04:32
mjg59Including working out whether something's the other side of a bridge or not?04:32
fabbionemjg59: last i used it it was about 4 years ago..04:32
fabbioneno idea what it can do now04:33
fabbionebut it's nothing different than HP OpenView discovery mechanism04:33
kylemdo the little linksys doohickeys to snmp?04:34
mjg59Doubt it04:34
kylemthought not.04:34
mjg59I guess it's either upnp or (possibly) spanning tree?04:34
kylemi wonder if i can use dmi to nix mmconfig... hmm.04:35
mjg59kylem: I'm sure you can, but I'm fairly sure you don't want to04:36
kylemright, i'd rather whitelist using it. heh.04:36
mjg59Windows still doesn't use mmconfig04:36
mjg59So I certainly wouldn't be unhappy disabling it by default04:36
kylemagreed04:36
kylemright now we do ANY, which does mmconfig -> direct -> bios fallbacks.04:36
kylemthe problem is we don't do a good job detecting broken mmconfig and so shit breaks in nasty ways. :(04:37
mjg59kylem: Bad news is that I'm going to have to feed you some slightly updated d80211 code04:39
fabbionemjg59: spanning tree won't help much alone..04:39
kylemmjg59, what's the good news?04:40
fabbioneanyway04:40
mjg59kylem: Give me a sec and I'll let you know how good bcm4311 support is now04:40
fabbionei am off to turn off N+1 too many candles on my bday cake and play with my son a bit04:40
fabbionecya on monday04:40
mjg59Just need to grab the firmware and swap the cards04:40
kylemmjg59, *hugs*04:41
mjg59Once that's done, I'll give the new ipw3945 code a test04:42
kylemthanks!04:42
mjg59Just need to find some screwdrivers...04:43
mjg59Jesus. Sony really don't make it easy to get at the mini-PCIe socket.04:44

navberwhat was the xen issue y'day05:06
navberfrom xensource05:06
navberBenC: ping05:07
mjg59Ok, so hal believes that I have no PCI devices05:09
mjg59Other than that, things look good05:09
navberdammit i want that link05:10
navber:D05:10
navberanyone recalls that ridiculous post on xensource?05:10
navberor was it devxnews05:11
mjg59Hm. Except I don't seem to be getting any incoming packets.05:13
navberok got it http://www.devxnews.com/article.php/365800105:13
navberwhat was the issue again ?05:13
navbersomething about virtualization05:13
mjg59navber: I have no idea what you're talking about05:14
mjg59Oh. Now it's started working.05:14
navberBenC and a few others were discussing it y'day05:14
mjg59kylem: So I'm getting ~340K/sec with bcm4311 now05:17
mjg59Which is much better than it used to be05:18
navberyou know during cross compilations the difficult bit is  building the cross compiler isnt it? ... but once its built then its a breeze05:20

BenCand I saw the mmconfig thing too..your fix sounds reasonable08:57
mjg59BenC: Did the new LRM get into the security upload?09:06
mjg59I've seen a couple of bugs that could be explained by it being missing09:06
BenCI'd have to ask pitti about that one09:07
mjg59BenC: Also, current git seems to break hal09:11
mjg59Updating hal to newer upstream code rectifies this09:11
BenCHow does the kernel break hal?09:11
