MithrandirBenC: ps3-kboot> uh, another copy of the linux kernel in the archive?12:12
varkatopecan i ask for a specific kernel driver module availability in feisty here?12:13
cjwatsonMithrandir: it's necessary unfortunately - kboot doesn't work with 2.6.20 yet12:16
cjwatsonBen tried fairly hard to make that work12:16
Mithrandircjwatson: hm, but it doesn't seem to actually build the kernel at any point?12:16
Mithrandirsorry, it does.12:17
MithrandirI guess he'll want this in main too?12:17
cjwatsonyeah, it's needed for PS3s12:19
cjwatsonI think Ben's still working on making it work with 2.6.2012:19
Mithrandirok.12:19
MithrandirI'm not happy with it, but I see the point of it not working with 2.6.20 yet.  I wonder if having a policy that such packages should build-depend on the current linux-source and then ship the patches to go down to the version they want, then building with that would make sense or just be utterly insane.12:20
cjwatsonI think the patch might well be about as big as the kernel, so I don't see the point in this kind of case12:21
cjwatsonthe only result of that would be that it would be a lot less comprehensible12:22
Mithrandirextra incentive to get stuff working for the latest kernel because of the pain involved. :-)12:22
cjwatsonI understand the incentive, but I think the method is misplaced12:22
varkatopewhere to ask/look if a specific chipset is supported by the kernel of feisty fawn?12:25
cjwatsonvarkatope: look> apt-get source linux-source-2.6.20, debian/config/wherever; ask> bug report on linux-source-2.6.2012:27

dokobug 8985101:48
doko<fabbione> doko: the heartbeat problem might be a missing kernel header..01:48
doko<fabbione> ia64: checking for linux/icmpv6.h... no01:48
doko<fabbione> i386: checking for linux/icmpv6.h... yes01:48
doko<fabbione> doko: ^^ this one is the problem for sure.. you can see in the i386 build log that it then builds IPv6addr01:48
fabbionedoko: i said probably.. you need to check the header packages01:49

Keybukzul: why does Xen need such an old kernel version?03:33
mjg59Because Xen isn't in the main kernel tree?03:33
zulKeybuk: Xensource doesnt even track the latest kernels and the one we have is from redhat03:34
Keybukright, I just mean has there been some known difficulty updating it to 2.6.20 or is it just that nobody's tried yet03:34

zulKeybuk: there is some dificulty because of the workqueue changes and the paravirt-ops changes but opensuse only ported to 2.6.20 very recently and its not really tested yet03:35
zulquintela from redhat is still in the process of porting 3.0.3 to 2.6.2003:35
Keybuk*nods*03:35
zuland Im in the process of porting xen-unstable from 2.6.18 to 2.6.2103:36
Keybukthe reason that check is there is because we had some problems getting the feisty udev to work with older kernels than 2.6.1903:36
Keybukthat could be fixed now though03:36
zulcool03:36
KeybukI'll investigate and see whether we can't drop that back to a minimum 2.6.17 dep03:36
zulthat would be nice for the xen users who still want to use their compiled kernels as well03:37
KeybukI'm not sure how broken feisty would be with an older kernel though03:37
Keybukthings like apport might not work, and may fail badly03:38
zultrue..Im hoping for feisty to base it off the proper kernel03:38
zulmjg59: I doubt Xensource is looking for inclusion now03:42
kylemxensource are <censored by the CoC>03:42
zulheh...a bunch of <censored by the CoC>? :)03:43
kylemjeremy has been doing a decent job getting xen-paravirt up to snuff.03:44
kylemi'd be happy to do a backport in my spare time if you need help.03:44
zulkylem: sure I was toying around with it this weekend03:44

KazzHey, does anyone know if there are problems with LDM (for accessing windows dynamic disks)?  It's part of the kernel, so I hope you don't mind me asking here...it seems to be compiled in, but it doesn't seem to be doing its job.11:12
KazzIt wasn't working with 2.6.17-10-generic and it's still just showing everything as 1 SFS partition with -11 too when it should be showing the individual partitions inside of the "dynamic disk".11:14
