[12:56] <zul> wish us luck..
[01:33] <Nafallo> zul: with? :-)
[05:30] <dfgas> how do i upgrade to the newest kernel, i am using dapper
[05:30] <dfgas> or is there a config.gz somewhere like on debian?
[05:55] <pmjdebruijn> dfgas, you shouldn't use non-supplied kernel if it's not absolutely nescesary, with that said...
[05:55] <pmjdebruijn> dfgas, look in /boot
[06:04] <mkrufky> hello, folks
[06:05] <mkrufky> i installed feisty last night... i was happy to find that certain firmware for v4l and dvb devices are now included with the distro
[06:05] <mkrufky> however, there is 1 firmware image missing, that is needed for my device drivers... "dvb-usb-bluebird-01.fw"
[06:06] <pmjdebruijn> mkrufky, did you already file a bug?
[06:06] <mkrufky> i have received permission from DViCO for public distribution of this firmware, and it is perfectly legal for ubuntu to package it
[06:06] <mkrufky> i did not yet file the bug, thought i'd jump in here and ask first
[06:06] <mjg59> mkrufky: Best bet would be to file a bug with a link to the firmware and a link to the permission statement
[06:07] <mkrufky> fyi, im not a user of this driver -- i am the author, and i assembled the firmware and put it onto linuxtv.org for distribution
[06:07] <mkrufky> ok, i will do so.  thanks
[06:07] <mkrufky> hmm, permission statement?
[06:07] <mkrufky> all i have is an email from the CEO from the company saying "yeah, sure... you can host the firmware and distribute it -- no problem."
[06:08] <mjg59> mkrufky: Hm. Does he say that other people can distribute it?
[06:08] <mkrufky> he said that it is freely distributable
[06:09] <mkrufky> did not impose any limits on WHO may distribute it
[06:09] <mjg59> Ok
[06:10] <mjg59> If you could quote that in the bug, that would help
[06:10] <mkrufky> OK
[06:10] <mkrufky> as of now, users can download the firmware using the dvb_get_firmware script included in the kernel source
[06:10] <mkrufky> but i dont think that script is included in the stock distro
[06:10] <mkrufky> anyway, i will file the bug, thanks
[06:14] <tuxmaniac> Does all the Intel machines have the VT extension?
[06:14] <tuxmaniac> I mean the modern ones.
[06:18] <mjg59> Celerons don't
[06:18] <mjg59> As far as I know
[06:25] <kylem> mjg59, have they revved the celeron for core yet?
[06:26] <mjg59> Dunno. Thought so.
[06:26] <mjg59> Ah, not yet
[06:26] <mjg59> June
[06:26] <kylem> right.
[06:26] <mjg59> http://www.vr-zone.com/?i=4657
[06:27] <mjg59> Oh, Celeron M 520 might be Core
[06:30] <JanC> "yay!" for useful product names...
[06:30] <JanC> (not)
[08:44] <fabbione> kylem: ping?
[08:44] <kylem> pong
[08:44] <fabbione> hey dude
[08:44] <kylem> s'up?
[08:45] <fabbione> can you give feisty this love: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mfasheh/ocfs2.git;a=log;h=2.6.20_fixes please?
[08:45] <fabbione> it's a set of ocfs2 fixes for .20
[08:45] <fabbione> we got them from Oracle
[08:45] <fabbione> and passed already their QA tests
[08:45] <fabbione> already included in .21 git
[08:45] <kylem> yeah, i guess so. ben's asked me to hold off uploading until he's back, but i'll queue them.
[08:46] <fabbione> i am ok if you can queue them in the git repo
[08:46] <fabbione> i could do it too... i am just, ya know.. lazy during holidays
[08:46] <kylem> slacker.
[08:46] <kylem> ;o)
[08:46] <kylem> the fixes look ok.
[08:46] <fabbione> yeah just make sure to grab the branch :)
[08:47] <fabbione> thanks a lot dude
[08:47] <kylem> np.
[08:47] <kylem> enjoy the rest of your holiday.
[08:48] <fabbione> we might need some GFS/GFS2 updates too.. but i will check on monday. Given that RHEL5 is going out next week, i need to see what they are releasing as stable
[08:48] <fabbione> and sync
[08:48] <fabbione> thanks.. i am indeed having some fun
[08:52] <ivoks> is there any chance to get updated 3w-9xxx in dapper?
[08:52] <ivoks> i've sent patches to mailing list
[08:52] <ivoks> (i'm just wondering if that is possible at all)
[08:53] <kylem> ivoks, possibly in -proposed. i think i have your patches queued in the next 'round of updates.
[08:54] <ivoks> oh, great
[10:56] <zul> afternoon...false alarm..:)
[11:16] <mkrufky> mjg59: re: missing firmware....  what should i file the bug against?
[11:16] <mjg59> linux-source-2.6.20
[11:16] <mkrufky> ok, thanks
[11:26] <mkrufky> Bug #90723 filed.
[11:57] <lifeless> anyone around? I've got a query about hardware suport for dell 745 hardware
[11:58] <mjg59> It's a, uh, dell?
[11:58] <lifeless> yeah
[11:58] <mjg59> So...
[11:59] <lifeless> so theres a uni that has a bunch of these machines, were running debian, a friend of mine pointed their tech guy at me
[11:59] <lifeless> apparently debian hates them, fc6 runs text mode only, no networking
[11:59] <lifeless> I think its the optiplex 745
[12:00] <lifeless> I'm going to put them in contact with riched as an education site, but knowing if we already work would be great.
[12:00] <lifeless> http://admin.utep.edu/Default.aspx?tabid=40677
[12:00] <mjg59> Graphics will be vesa only right now
[12:00] <lifeless> thats not the same uni, but is probably the right specs
[12:01] <mjg59> Oh, no
[12:01] <mjg59> They're available in either Intel or ATI form
[12:01] <lifeless> oh
[12:01] <lifeless> sounds like you know about them already :)
[12:02] <mjg59> Ethernet should work fine in feisty
[12:02] <lifeless> is it vesa for both builds ?
[12:03] <mjg59> No
[12:03] <lifeless> ati - vesa, intel - i900 driver ?
[12:03] <mjg59> Yes
[12:04] <lifeless> the installer drops back to vesa IIRC, so it should be 'just works' either way ?
[12:04] <mjg59> Correct
[12:08] <lifeless> thank you very much
[12:08] <lifeless> think the SATA controller is supported ?
[12:08] <mjg59> Should be
[12:09] <kylem> holy shit, how did it get to be 6pm.
[12:09] <lifeless> it comes after 5pm.
[12:09] <kylem> hmm. -ECHAN.
[12:09] <kylem> lifeless, i have no recollection of it being 5pm. :)
[12:13] <lifeless> why does FF hate me
[12:14] <lifeless> ECHAN too
[12:16] <lifeless> mjg59: one last question
[12:16] <lifeless> for core2duo, is the EMT64 cd the right one ?
[12:16] <mjg59> amd64, yes
[12:16] <mjg59> Unless you want flash
[12:16] <lifeless> right
[12:17] <lifeless> but these machines are fundamentally 64bit
[12:17] <lifeless> cool
