[01:23] <pwnguin> is there a good place to learn about how acpi, supend etc all fit together?
[01:24] <pwnguin> my laptop's acting a bit funky, and id like to get some of the extended buttons doing something useful
[01:33] <crimsun> mjg59 (Matthew Garrett) blogged about it some time ago.  You may also wish to check his Ubuntu Live and Linuxconf presentations.
[01:34] <pwnguin> ive read the article, but it's really not too detailed
[01:35] <crimsun> "the article" referring to...?
[01:35] <pwnguin> mjg's article on linux acpi
[01:35] <crimsun> which article?
[01:35] <crimsun> he has blogged several times.
[01:35] <pwnguin> state of linux acpi
[01:38] <pwnguin> im not really interested in cstates etc, but more of the linux userspace side of thinsg
[01:38] <pwnguin> things
[01:39] <crimsun> can you be more specific than "userspace"?
[01:39] <pwnguin> the flow of acpi events from kernel to actions taken
[01:40] <pwnguin> mostly acpid, but also the scripts surrounding it
[01:40] <crimsun> I'm almost positive mjg59 has archived it somewhere.
[01:40] <pwnguin> well ive gone through both his livejournal and advagoto stuff and i dont think ive seen it =(
[01:41] <crimsun> well, aside from reading mailing lists, you'll just need to ask him.
[01:41] <pwnguin> which mailing lists do you recommend?
[01:41] <crimsun> (and there's always the code if you want to dive right in)
[01:41] <crimsun> the linux acpi one
[01:44] <pwnguin> as an example, i have a toshiba convertible tablet. i'd like to get, among other things, automatic conversion working
[01:44] <crimsun> conversion being auto-rotate (xrandr)?
[01:45] <pwnguin> basically
[01:45] <pwnguin> and because x is wierd
[01:45] <pwnguin> rotating the input
[01:45] <crimsun> so start with xev and go forward
[01:46] <crimsun> and acpi-listen
[01:46] <crimsun> s/-/_/
[01:46] <pwnguin> well, i think first i need to finish a patch to nv
[01:46] <pwnguin> as it happens, it doesn't appear to support the correct rotation in xrandr
[01:47] <pwnguin> it supports 90 and 270
[01:47] <pwnguin> but not 180
[03:20] <cynics> hi, guy, anyone can run feisty on a instel 965 chipset based notebook
[06:36] <thedarkbg1> hi guys
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> i have a question
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> i just put ubuntu 6.06 on my laptop
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> and the sound isnt working
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> i looked into the configuration
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> and it says no enabled in the configuration
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> not enabled*
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> so how do i enable it
[06:38] <thedarkbg1> ?
[06:46] <crimsun> not a support channel.  What audio hardware do you have?
[06:47] <crimsun> It's likely already supported in alsa-driver 1.0.14 (final, not RC).
[06:56] <thedarkbg1> well
[06:56] <thedarkbg1> as its laptop related
[06:56] <thedarkbg1> i come here
[07:01] <thedarkbg1> sorry had to restart
[07:01] <thedarkbg1> did a mass update
