mjg59bullgard4: I don't understand the question09:24
bullgard4mjg59: In http://advogato.org/article/913.html you have written: ""The user presses the power button. The system switches on, jumps to the BIOS start address, does a certain amount of setup (programming the memory controller and so on) and then looks at the ACPI status register. This tells it that the machine was previously suspended to RAM." I asked: "Where can I find the ACPI status register in Ubuntu 7.04 using the 2.6.20-16gener09:36
mjg59bullgard4: Yes, and I don't understand the question09:37
mjg59The register is part of your hardware, not the software09:37
bullgard4ACPI 3.0b Specification gives an 'Intel Architecture SetSleepingState example' where it clears the wake status by aserting a bit in the PM1a_STS status register. Where is the equivalent code to be found in Ubuntu 7.04? 09:50

iwjCan I talk to someone about DKMS ?04:40
kousotu!ask04:41
kousotuof coursethe damn bot ain't here...04:41
kousotuiwj: just start your question, someone wil most likely answer you04:41
iwjI know what you mean but I really don't know anything about DKMS.  I need to know what the kernel guys think of it ...04:41
iwjIn particular, apropos of bug 121676.04:43
rtgiwj: bug BenC. I'm sure he has some comments.04:45
BenCiwj: the kernel guys are pushing it :)04:48
iwjBenC: ^04:48
iwjAh, hello.04:48
BenCiwj: we need it to help support third-party modules04:48
BenCfrom OEMs and such04:48
zulits still sitting the revu right now04:49
iwjSo what's the state of this package ?  Is there a package ?04:49
iwjAh.04:49
BenCit's in universe revu04:49
zulno one on the motu team has looked afaik i can take a look at it hopefully tonight04:49
zulor get someone to review it04:50
BenCyeah, we'd like it to be in universe for gutsy04:50
kousotuI'm glad the Ubuntu kernal is so forgiving lol04:50
BenCwould be nice if debian would take it so we can just sync it04:50
rtgBenC: actually we'd like it to be in main for Gutsy (if that is possible)04:50
BenCrtg: at the very least in universe, so it's installable04:51
BenCsince it wont be in by default, there's not much point in having it in main right now04:51
zulim getting someone the motu team to do a quick review and ill try to ram it in04:52
kousotuisthere any wat to have transparency autoset?04:55
zuliwj: its getting reviewed shortly04:55
iwjExcellent, thanks.04:56
xhakerBenC, next ATi driver with AIGLX support, did you know about it already?04:58
rtgzul: Whom specifically is reviewing the DKMS package? I want to keep track of this issue.05:01
zulrtg: bddebian05:02
zulrtg: comments will appear at http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=18905:02
rtgzul: thanks.05:02
zulrtg: you can bug him if you want :)05:03
zulrtg: first review done http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=18905:18

eagles0513875j/w what is the programming language used by the kernel is it c++ or something else05:44
mjg59eagles0513875: Erm. We ship bcm43xx.05:44
mjg59We have done for two years05:44
mjg59We can't ship the firmware, so you won't get out of the box support05:44
eagles0513875what u mean05:45
mjg59I mean, the driver you're asking us to include has been in Ubuntu for two years05:46
eagles0513875really what repository05:47
mjg59It's part of our kernel image05:47
eagles0513875ok for some reason my doesnt work out of the box05:47

bdmurrayzul: I ran across bug 135760 and was wondering what happens next with a bug like that08:34
zulwhich one is that?08:35
bdmurrayone where you recommend that they boot with "pci=assign-busses" and it fixed their issue08:36
zulmaybe there is a blacklist i have to check08:36
zulbdmurray: ask for the output of sudo dmidecode and we can black list it08:37
bdmurrayzul: okay, how does that work?08:37
zulbdmurray: basically the kernel checks a table for a hardware vendor and takes approiate action08:38
bdmurraysome kernel options can have negative side effects though like acpi=off - right?08:39
zulyep08:40
zulbdmurray: basically ask the output of dmidecode and I can get it blacklisted for him08:42
bdmurrayzul: Right, I've asked08:45
zulgreat dont forget to assign the bug to me ;)08:45
