BenCmjg59: it's part of a patchset I sent kyle for inclusion12:30
kylemyeah, clearly it's all my fault.12:33

mjg59BenC: Is there any way to determine which patches were in feisty and aren't currently in gutsy?12:39
BenCkylem: wasn't pointing fingers, just letting him know that the patch wasn't lost12:40
BenCmjg59: yeah, it's basically the file I sent to kyle12:40
BenCmjg59: forwarded to you12:41
mjg59Thanks12:41
BenCmjg59: when is toshiba_acpi stuff going to get into mainline? :)12:44
mjg592312:44
Nafallokylem: I've bought the laptop earlier this evening. will let you know how the Intel-stuff works out :-)12:44
kylemNafallo, if it doesn't work, it's my job to make it, so feel free to ping me12:45
Nafallokylem: I know, and I will :-)12:45

zul_BenC: ping12:54
BenCzul_: yo12:54
=== Nafallo holds both thumbs that zul will say something about openvz :-)
zul_BenC: there is problem in the i386 config PAE is not enabled the hypervisor needs that or it will a kernel mismatch when booting12:55
BenCpkl_: ^^12:55
zul_freaking nickserv12:56
mjg59Haven't we been over the PAE on i386 thing many, many times before?12:59
BenCmjg59: this is a xen specific config/flavour12:59
BenCat least I hope that's what zul meant12:59
zul_yep it is12:59
zul_besides its the generic flavour renamed i38601:00
BenCsure you wouldn't rather use -server redone for -xen?01:00
BenC-server already has PAE01:00
zul_arent there drivers missing from -server?01:01
BenCno, right now it's basically -generic with HZ=100 and no preempt01:01
BenCplus a little bump is cpu target (686 as opposed to 586)01:01
zul_doesnt matter to me then01:02

zul_oh when are those policies going to be on the wiki?01:04
Nafallozul_: are you doing openvz btw? :-)01:04
=== OGDA [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.223.234.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
zul_Nafallo: no01:05
Nafallozul_: you got any idea if someone is? :-)01:05
zul_Nafallo: probably the openvz guys, i really dont have time for it 2 virtualizations are enough for me01:06
Nafallozul_: sounds sensible enough :-)01:07
NafalloI might need it for work, but I hope I can avoid maintaining a patchset :-P01:07
pkl_zul_ bummer01:10
pkl_zul_: the config.generic flavour has HIGHMEM4G and not CONFIG_X86_PAE.  I made sure the config matched that.  Why isn't that appropriate?01:11
kylemxen only supports pae, afaik.01:12
pkl_kylem/zul_: so the xen flavour with PAE will only run on the server kernel?01:13
zul_pkl_: you CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G enabled01:13
zul_pae is default you can build it without pae but it would suck01:13
pkl_zul_: sorry, just checked, I had CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G01:14
zul_pkl_: yep no probs01:15
BenCpkl_: xen guest kernels only run under a xen dom0 kernel, and I think it's dom0 that needs pae01:15
zul_yep01:15
kylemanyway, bob dylan. l8rs.01:16
zul_oh yes bluesfest have fun01:16
BenCbut since the xen/config.i386 is both dom0 and domU, just make that config PAE and we're good01:16
BenCkylem: later01:16
=== doko [n=doko@dslb-088-073-106-070.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
pkl_zul_: adding HIGHMEM64G/X86_PAE is no problem.01:17
zul_pkl_: thanks01:17
pkl_zul_: in your patch you had both -pae and non pae i386.configs, and so I figured no-pae configs worked on xen.01:18
zul_they do if the dom0 is built without pae 01:19
zul_we had both in feisty 01:19
pkl_zul_: the xen/config.i386 config is both dom0 and domU?  And so it would work with no pae?01:20
zul_its bit dom0 and domU but dom0 needs PAE in order to boot01:21

zulpkl_: correct but distros such as fedora and opensuse still supports it02:15
pkl_zul: yeah, but I couldn't remember having to use a PAE enabled dom0.   You were saying dom0 had to be PAE enabled. 02:17
zulwhich kernel did you use?02:18
zulsorry crabby baby02:18
zuldom0 is pae enabled by default under 3.102:20
pkl_zul: I haven't played about with xen for many years.  2004/2005?  When was it first released?  It seemed something interesting when it got first released, but I never got time to play around with it afterwards.02:20
zulah well you probably used the defaults but anyways..02:21

zulpkl_: ie: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen-source-2.6.17/+bug/6509602:35
pkl_zul: yeah, but that's because there was a mismatch between dom0 and domU, dom0 was PAE, and domU wasn't.  He was using the server flavour.02:38
zulyou can use the dom0 kernel as a domU kernel, thats the way we do it and debian does the same way now02:40
zulthats the way weve done it since edgy as well02:40

yulinthe patches in the two packages organized by what? time? effect? branch?08:01
yulinour product will use 2.6.20 kernel for several monthes, but we often faced new hardwares such as southbridge, chipset, should i use the patches in -mm?08:05
yulinNow i used the kernel source from feisty, where i can get the patch of ubuntu-kernel?08:07
crimsunwe don't carry broken-out patches.  Please see http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/08:14

Kanoin the kernel right now are only the amd boards, but the problem happens on the intel version too.06:18

Kanoa similar thing for the 2nd patch. it only adds another pcmcia card06:20
Kanoask locsmif06:20
