I've love to run the latest kernel. :) [05:48] Since Boot Camp's BIOS stuff is magic (there's no user interface as far as I know), would it be possible to write a Linux utility that set the SATA controller to show up as an AHCI device (like a PC BIOS can do)? Maybe that's impossible or it wouldn't survive a reboot. I don't know much about these things. [05:48] sterwill, yes. [05:49] man setpci [05:49] It wouldn't survive a reboot [05:49] That was my worry. [05:49] mjg59, so do it in the initramfs. [05:49] ;-) [05:50] ohh [05:50] sounds magic [05:50] I understand the bind the kernel AHCI maintainers are in. Apple doesn't follow the rules, and they don't want to hack up the detection code because it may affect other uses of this controller (which were specifically assigned to run in "piix mode" or whatever the term). [05:51] Am I right in thinking that if the Apple firmware allowed boot-time configuration of the controller like a PC BIOS might, the card would be correctly detected via AHCI? [05:52] yes [05:52] That would depend on what configuration it allowed [05:52] all the PC BIOS does is poke config space and initialize the controller [05:52] Assume it has a "[X] AHCI mode" setting. I've seen SATA controllers have these options in PC BIOSes. === exoide [n=exoide@200.55.129.130] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [05:53] Hi, can someone give me some reference about the .symtab section in an ELF file?

I don't know much about it. I stopped building all my own Linux kernels back before boot-time RAM filesystems were used. :) [05:55] I know what the RAM fs is used for, but I don't know how to build in scripts/utilities. [05:55] kylem, Is that pdf the TIS specification 1.2? [05:55] kylem: dapper kernel is under your survailance? :) [05:56] ivoks, yeah [05:56] hmm but since it was already working correctly with the AHCI driver if I hacked in that thing in the ahic table if we did that setpci magic in initramfs the ahci driver would pick up the device and it would work just fine? ;-) [05:56] kylem: there are some funny stuff with serial ports [05:56] gicmo: Hope so. :) [05:56] gicmo_: If you did it early enough, yes [05:56] kylem: i can't get modem to work :/ [05:56] But less than ideal [05:56] ivoks, file a bug? i'll look at it after feisty kernel freeze.

[05:59] kylem, I've tried a lot of channel but nobody answer my question :-( [05:59] gicmo_: If it needs to be done, it should be done in the kernel [06:00] mjg59: fair enough [06:01] mjg59: Adding the ID to the AHCI list is bad for two reasons: it's hacky because Apple should be using the correct AHCI ID class in the first place; the controller can also be piix and maybe the user wants it that way. Is this right? [06:01] Just trying to get things straight for my own knowlege. [06:01] Yes === gicmo_ kicks apple [06:03] I had similar fun getting the sound card to work right.

[07:20] maybe i'm on glue. but i don't think so.
