[12:19] <penguin42> hi, I filed a bug - 106665 that got fixed by the -27 fix; what's the best way to close it?
[12:20] <gnomefreak> penguin42: mark it fix released with comment says fixed in ....-27 kernel
[12:20] <gnomefreak> or restricted-modules or whatever it was fixed in
[12:20] <penguin42> ok will do
[12:20] <penguin42> main kernel - it's an amd pata hanging the machine solid
[12:31] <holycow> hey guys
[12:31] <holycow> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/107271
[12:31] <holycow> anyone have a clue why ata2 interface would be acting slow?
[12:32] <holycow> the system seems to be restarting it every so often and locking up the entire laptop for about 30 seconds at a time or so
[12:37] <penguin42> After the rush of the initial release is out of the way can we expect updates to fix low priority bugs if the fix is already committed but not released? (#92171 unusuably quiet sound on Intel chipsets affects me)
[12:16] <holycow> hey guys
[12:17] <holycow> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/107271
[12:18] <holycow> would anyone know what subsystem talks to the ata2 interface and why it might be responding 'slowly'?
[12:18] <holycow> is there anything i can do to test further and help the bug hunt?
[04:42] <crimsun> err, ubuntu-feisty.git has a completely different EXTRAVERSION from release
[04:57] <poningru> so I had a quick question
[04:57] <poningru> re: Intel's pat
[04:57] <poningru> is that open?
[04:58] <poningru> does amd implement that in their mem controllers?
[05:36] <fabbione> BenC: ping?
[05:36] <BenC> fabbione: yo
[05:37] <fabbione> BenC: hey dude... usual question of doom... generic kernel up to 8 CPU? server up to X??? and bigiron up to 64?
[05:37] <fabbione> BenC: preparing some slides.. brain is melting /me can't remember
[05:38] <kylem> rgrep NR_CPUS debian/config/amd64
[05:38] <kylem> debian/config/amd64/config.generic:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8
[05:38] <kylem> debian/config/amd64/config.server:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64
[05:38] <BenC> 8, 8, 64 (generic, server, bigiron)
[05:38] <fabbione> ok thanks
[05:38] <BenC> for i386
[05:38] <kylem> we should probably bump .generic to 16.
[05:38] <fabbione> and sparc to 64 at least
[05:38] <BenC> there was a problem with sparc being set to 64
[05:39] <BenC> I forget what it is
[05:39] <BenC> maybe davem remembers
[05:39] <fabbione> BenC: it was the amount of CPU structs allocated at boot, but i think that was solved
[05:39] <fabbione> in any case that needs to be fixed for N2
[05:40] <fabbione> amd64/config.server:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64
[05:40] <fabbione> i386/config.server:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8
[05:40] <fabbione> i386/config.server-bigiron:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=64
[05:40] <fabbione> hmmm
[05:40] <fabbione> perhaps we should allign those too
[05:41] <BenC> the only bad thing about i386 server is that some people might want to use it on 64-bit hw
[05:42] <BenC> but the usual there is 2xquad-core, so 8 is fair enough...I think i386 server-bigiron should probably go away
[05:42] <BenC> we have zero testing with it
[05:42] <kylem> maybe if you ask nice, for christmas... ;-)
[05:42] <BenC> most people are doing dual/quad core stuff with x86_64 anyway
[05:43] <BenC> kylem: are you going to be my secret santa? :)
[05:43] <kylem> sure.
[05:43] <kylem> parisc cpus for everyone!
[05:43] <kylem> ho ho ho
[05:43] <BenC> haha
[05:43] <fabbione> ahah
[05:43] <fabbione> BenC: no you don't.... you want a N2
[05:43] <BenC> and a colo room built in my barn for it
[05:43] <fabbione> it's faster than an e10k
[05:44] <fabbione> kylem: i have a phone call with our pusher on monday and ask for updates
[05:44] <kylem> nice.
[05:44] <BenC> fabbione: no, I really want a computer the size of fridge
[05:44] <BenC> size does matter :P
[05:44] <fabbione> BenC: dude.. the e10k is much bigger than a 19" rack
[05:44] <fabbione> it's like 40x45" or something
[05:44] <kylem> if it arrives over uds i'll have to teach my sister to hook it up in my new house.
[05:44] <BenC> ok, an industrial fridge
[05:44] <thom> i want an M9k
[05:44] <fabbione> and you need something 10kW to power it on
[05:45] <fabbione> BenC: 10kW from at least 5 different 2kW lines 
[05:45] <fabbione> your cows can't bike that fast to produce all that energy
[05:47] <BenC> fabbione: the bulls might if I taunt them with the heffers
[05:48] <fabbione> ehhee
[05:48] <thom> some kind of bungee cord and treadmill arrangement
[06:19] <kylem> fabbione, WOOT
