[04:12] it was past the scary part on a previously-afflicted architecture [04:17] accepted, many thanks lamont [04:19] yep. built. :-) [04:25] hmm, i386 failed to build? [04:25] the last kernel upload, that is [04:25] -10.27 can't have failed yet [04:26] zul, will -10.27 have that patch i sent you earlier? maybe i got lucky [04:26] xhaker: uh no [04:27] .27 is nothing but the ftbfs [04:28] lamont, ok. === infinity kills the -10.26 build on artigas...

[05:33] lamont: that's what kyle was working on [05:33] so. really shouldn't have uploaded that. [05:33] kylem: sorry. [05:33] and everyone else is kind of stupid for approving it. [05:33] and while you're fixing zen, please fix debian/hppa/config too [05:33] s/zen/xen/ [05:33] especially given i was sleeping on the couch about 10 feet away [05:33] with my mobile phone [05:34] I think we were trying to let you sleep [05:35] well, i wasn't at the time it ftbfs. [05:35] anyway. wha tbroke now? [05:35] same bug as xen [05:35] -10.27 is top of my hppa-ia64.git tree [05:36] and dies in abicheck, because I suck [05:36] eh? [05:36] oh. [05:36] right. [05:36] ok, i'll just bump to 10.28 and upload. [05:36] i386 was ftbfs because of CONFIG_MSS. ditto hppa [05:36] yes. [05:36] i know, i got the email... [05:37] and I screwed up things for abicheck when I did -10.27 [05:37] yeah, it's fine. [05:37] i'd have made the same mistake probably. [05:37] but if you want the history, it's in my tree... :( [05:37] ok, i pulled the patch from your tree [05:38] and I had a -10.28 prepared, but hadn't committed it or uploaded yet... and now it's your baton. [05:40] lamont, there's nothing wrong with the commit though, right? it will succeed now? [05:42] right [05:43] ok, thanks. [05:43] what I changed but did not commit was: changelog (rename .26,27 to -9), and rename debian/abi/2.6.22-9.25 -> 27 [05:43] the odds are astronomically high that i'm goign to fuck this up. [05:43] want me to just upload a .28? [05:44] no, it's fine [05:44] why would you rename the abi? [05:45] there is no abi to compare it to [05:45] ah, good point. [05:45] as long as it's -9.27 for the previous in changelog. got it. [05:45] EOVERKILL [05:45] yeah, sorry, i should have nuked it when i was preparing it in the first place.

[06:06] ogra: ... [06:07] ogra: Which hardware? [06:07] i'm working on fixing up alsa on them. [06:07] slowly. [06:08] oh, right, I need to report my feisty-hates-usb bug [06:08] mjg59, kaluha specifically and there is a driver for sis7019 that we dont have but thats available as unlicensed source that needs various bits of the oss stack thats missing as well [06:08] ogra: Yeah, I think the "unlicensed source" bit is probably more of a problem [06:09] right [06:09] We shouldn't be distributing kernel options for the sole reason of letting someone breach copyright [06:09] i have it building fine here, but cant use it, its a shame [06:09] well, i think its up to the user and i want to enable them at least to make their HW work [06:11] ogra: we have worse - a GPL driver that we can't include becase of crazy firmware licensing: http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?dId=178&pId=38 [06:12] ogra: ah, right...we'll end up re-enabling oss where needed [06:12] amitk_, well, i dont care about inclusion since i wont be able to, but i care that the user can solve it himself .... [06:13] ogra: point taken [06:13] amitk_: 2.2(ii) seems to grant permission to redistribute the firmware? [06:14] mjg59: but not sell it, and check out the export/nuclear crack clause towards the end [06:16] BenC, i'll get a list and attach it to the bug .... for now kahlua is the most important one i know of, but i'm sure there are more, these embedded chipsets suck in that regard [06:16] elmo: It says that we can't sell the firmware, not that we can't sell the product it's incorporated into? [06:17] elmo: I suspect that the export stuff is a matter of law anyway. I'd go slightly further and suggest that we've never made any real guarantees about anyone's right to use anything in l-r-m [06:18] mjg59: if we sell an Ubuntu DVD with this on it, how is that not selling the firmware? where does the license make the distinction between the firmware and the product it's integrated into [06:18] mjg59: that export stuff is not a matter of law [06:18] "any party engaged in nuclear, chemical/biological weapons or missile proliferation activities " [06:19] " may not, in the absence of authorization by U.S. and local law and regulations, as required, be used by or exported or reexported" [06:19] is something I can't even parse, but under at least one reading seems to say 'in soviet russia, US law applies YOU' [06:20] elmo: That section starts "are subject to US export control laws" [06:20] If authorization by US and local law and regulations /isn't/ required, it sounds fine [06:21] I really don't see how you're reading it that way [06:22] ' In addition to the above' <- above being are subject to US export control laws [06:22] ' may not, in the absence of authorization by U.S. and local law and regulations, as required, [... a whole bunch of prohibitive restrictions] ' [06:22] ogra: ok [06:23] I read that as "You may not do these things without the authorization of US and local law (as required)" [06:23] Where there's no requirement, you may do them === bullgard5 [n=detlef@p54BF0216.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [06:26] elmo: The "You may not sell this" bit also claims "You may not distribute it", which is clearly at odds with 2.2 - the only way for that to make sense is for it to be fine to distribute or sell it as part of the licensee's product, but not on its own [06:26] Which is a restriction that we've had on other things in the past [06:26] err, like what? [06:27] oh, you mean selling in aggregrate [06:27] sure we've had that before [06:27] Yeah === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [06:27] but I don't buy the whole 'this is the whole sane reading of the license -> we'll use that' argument at all [06:27] we've been bitten by that before with e.g. pine [06:28] 2.2(ii) makes it clear that you can distribute as part of licensee's product, whereas 2.3(ii) states that you can't distribute the proprietary deliverables [06:28] and we've certainly got a history of rejecting internally inconsistent licenses [06:29] Heh. Have you guys asked for clarification? [06:30] I dunno - I haven't been dealing with them/don't know who is. amit? [06:31] 'All Derivatives of the Open Source Deliverables shall be licensed back to Marvell' is another interesting one [06:31] kylem: Old builds killed, new builds on the way. [06:31] thanks hot stuff. [06:31] elmo: Surely that's an inevitable consequence of them being GPLed? [06:32] not if I don't distribute it to them, it's not [06:33] Hm. Yes, I can see that being an issue. === tehk [n=tehk@c-69-249-157-157.hsd1.nj.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [06:48] elmo: mjg59: I haven't dealt with Marvell directly. I got a request from Pepper to include this driver. And since the license was too much for my comprehension of law, I asked around (mdz, elmo, rtg_) [06:50] but if you know who has done these sorts of negotiations before, we could take this forward [06:52] actually it was Mithrandir instead of rtg_ === bullgard4 [n=detlef@e179072130.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [07:11] BenC: maybe there should be a wiki page on patches from the community (ie what is needed, etc) === bullgard5 [n=detlef@e179072112.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [07:41] zul: basically it's the same as upstream kernel === bullgard4 [n=detlef@e179072112.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel === bullgard4 [n=detlef@e179072112.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [08:05] Anyone familiar with the TCP keepalive code?
