jsawor how to avoid that the ata subsystem probes harddisks/loads the pdc202xx driver...?12:33
aboganijsaw: Put the name of the driver in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist12:36
jsaweh, boot-CD?12:36
jsaw(I'm trying the Feisty-Beta,i386,alternate)12:36
jsawah, ic12:37
jsawmount image, edit... ?12:37
aboganijsaw: It is a very rough way(but works): debootstrap12:38
jsaw...damn...12:38
jsawbtw, will the 2.6.20 be the final kernel for end of April, or is there a chance for 2.6.21, even rc?12:39
jsaw(because the sx6000 issue seems to be related to commit ca4266359d0c1199af088447f209ab5bcc32a989, http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/ChangeLog-2.6.21-rc4)12:43

thotzBenC: Am I correct: We only do not want to release the 96xx driver because it does _not_ appear on the nvidia driver download page? Or have I misunderstood something yesterday?05:07
BenCthotz: no decision is made yet, we are actually discussing what we are going to do05:07
thotzBenC: I have contacted nvidia support. I can send you the answer they gave me about this driver. I think this will be supported through nvidia as a "new" legacy driver. sending you the mail...05:09
BenCthotz: thanks, that's useful information05:10
thotzBenC: This should give you the answer :-)05:11
BenCthotz: +10 points for following up with the vendor, thanks :)05:11

mvohi kernel team! I'm currently working on making sure in the release upgrader that a new kernel is installed. I got some reports that didn't happen during a upgrade (they were left with 2.6.17 that didn't boot anymore for some reason). what is the most sensible thing to check against? linux-image-generic? this seems to be ok for amd64 and i386, but what about the other arches?07:21
=== m0rg0th [n=manugarg@219.64.120.181] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
mvoBenC, kylem: do you have a opinion about the kernel upgrades handling?07:39
kylemi don't think we renamed any flavours for feisty07:40
BenCmvo: they need one of the linux-image-* or linux-* or linux meta-packages installed07:40
BenCmvo: In most cases, linux-image-generic, the linux-generic will include the lrm stuff07:40
BenClinux for amd64 and i386 is just the same as linux-generic07:41

mvook, thanks. I will ensure that its linux-image-generic if possible 07:45
mjg59mvo: -386 is also acceptable on i38607:46

mvo[Arch-powerpc] 08:29
mvoKernel=linux-image-generic08:29
mvo ^--- does that make sense on ppc as well? 08:29
mjg59mvo: linux-image-powerpc08:31
mjg59mvo: I'm a little worried about this approach - what about machines using server or bigiron kernels and so on?08:31
mjg59There isn't a right kernel per architecture, as such08:31
mvomjg59: I can give it a list, this is the approach I plan08:32
mjg59mvo: In that case, just check what packages are built from linux-meta?08:32
mvomjg59: but I'm open for suggestions of course. I want to ensure that after the upgrade there is a updated kernel as well08:32
mjg59Installing a -generic kernel on a system that's been using -386 may break stuff08:33
mjg59And installing a -powerpc kernel on a system that's running -powerpc64 isn't a good plan08:33
mvoright. I'm trying to solve the case if the user does not have any linux-image-$flavour package installed (but just linux-image-$ver-$flavour),  does it make sense to auto-install linux-image-$flavour (+ dependencies) in this case?08:36
mjg59If $flavour is the same in both cases, yes08:36
mvothe idea with the kernel-arch-list was to check if any of the kernels is installed, fine do nothing. otherwise do something08:36
mvook, I think that is the better approach then08:37
mjg59$flavour is probably best taken from the running kernel, if possible08:37
mvothat should be possible, yeah08:38

bdmurrayBenC: ping11:27
BenCbdmurray: yo11:27
bdmurrayI'm probably late to the party about the nvidia drivers, bug 96430 but one comment mentioned restricted-manager in it.11:28
bdmurrayThat seems like it could be an issue to me.11:28
BenCIt wont be11:29
bdmurrayOkay, the restricted-manager won't recommend the nvidia driver for "legacy" cards?11:30
BenCpitti, mvo and I already discussed the implementation and it will actually be invisible to users whether they are using 9631 or the 9755 driver11:30
bdmurrayokay, cool.  I am late then.11:30
