[12:59] <__dmr__> can anybody tell me how to append a custom identifying string to a kernel built with the debian/rules script from git?
[01:00] <zul> edit the top level makefile
[01:02] <__dmr__> set EXTRAVERSION?
[01:03] <zul> uh huh
[01:03] <__dmr__> thanks. will add to wiki.
[11:02] <abogani> BenC: Are you around ?
[01:30] <derjohn> hi, as I still miss linux-image-2.6.22-.*-xen in the amd64 repo of gutsy, I want to build the kernel myself. Usually I use make-kpkg for the job, but i read severa times about the "new building infrastructure" - do we now build kernel debs differntly (i.e. dpkg-buildpackage or such) ? ( zul ? )
[01:37] <jmg> derjohn: did you get your question answered?
[01:39] <xhaker> derjohn, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:49] <derjohn> well, I also asked here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/133986 . It looks like the package has been fixen, I can see the -xen kernel in i386 repo, but not in amd64 ....
[01:51] <derjohn> xhaker, thx for that link, that was exactly what I was looking for. But I still hope, the package will appear soon, so I dont have to complile myself ..
[01:51] <xhaker> in the topic
[01:51] <xhaker> Latest news: -rt and -xen kernels re-added
[01:52] <xhaker> it seems they are there
[01:52] <xhaker> yes
[01:52] <xhaker> oh.. amd64
[01:54] <xhaker> BenC, amd64-xen ?
[02:02] <zul_> next upload
[02:04] <xhaker> derjohn, ^^
[02:04] <xhaker> thanks zul_ 
[02:13] <derjohn> zul, whooohooo! c00l !
[02:13] <derjohn> someone might close https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/133986 then ...
[02:14] <derjohn> zul, ah, it's you ;) 
[04:29] <clever> my ubuntu kernel(2.6.25-29) keeps having kernel panics randomly
[04:29] <clever> and lvm is also locking up durring pvmove(2.6.15-28)
[04:31] <Chorus> clever - what does the kernel panic say?
[04:31] <clever> Chorus: checking
[04:31] <clever> i have it logged somewhere
[04:32] <clever> paste bining...
[04:32] <clever> damnit
[04:33] <clever> winblows doesnt want to help me:P
[04:33] <clever> doing everything it can to keep linux broken
[04:35] <clever> chorus: http://pastebin.ca/690270
[04:42] <clever> Chorus: thats just 1 of several panic msgs i have logged
[04:42] <clever> the lvm lockups produce no logs at all
[05:08] <slavik> question about the gutsy kernel, is it confirmed to support the w83267ghf super I/O chip for lm-sensors? (lm-sensors site says the code is in .21, but I would like to make sure that gutsy has it.)
[05:10] <zul> if it made it into linus kernel tree for .21 then it most likely made it into gutsy for .22
[05:11] <slavik> is it a bad idea to use the current gutsy kernel in feisty?
[05:12] <clever> ive tried using the 6.06 kernel in 7.04
[05:12] <clever> to see where a driver module bug came up
[05:12] <clever> but it wouldnt boot
[05:12] <clever> and the bug exists in all kernels in 7.04
[06:22] <bullgard4> When has been the 2.6.20 kernel, and when has been released the 2.6.22 kernel?
[06:27] <BenC> 2.6.22 was released about 2 months ago
[06:27] <BenC> 2.6.20 about 6 months prior
[06:50] <derjohn> BenC, EHLO! I have a question about ipw3945. I suxx to use that for notebooks that suspend and resume. I saw iwl3945 already in 2.6.22 which does not need the regulatory daemon. But iwl.* is quite buggy in 2.6.22, there were lots of changes in 2.6.23. Is there any change that ubuntu backports it or includes the driver from intel's website (which should be very close to what 2.6.23 has ...)
[07:09] <BenC> derjohn: we're looking into the newer iwlwifi driver, but it requires some tricky things because of dependency on newer mac80211 stack
[07:12] <derjohn> BenC, fine that there is already progress, so I dont have to file a buglet. Maybe you should take 2.6.23 and rename the versionstring to 2.6.22-ubusuperbackport and save lots of work? *g* </Just Kidding> thanks for you effort ....
[07:14] <derjohn> BenC, btw, about notebooks: Is there a plan to bring queueprotect out of the box? I think several notebooks and hdds support thinks similar to hdaps. It would be sad if users like me would have to recompile only for that feature. how to you guys solve that on your notebooks?
[07:50] <bdmurray> BenC: So some 2.6.22 bugs for Wednesday?
[08:03] <BenC> bdmurray: yeah
[08:04] <zul> the netboot installer is neat
[08:08] <paran> BenC: what is problems with pulling in a new mac80211 subsystem together with iwlwifi? lots of other modules that use it and so might break, or something else?
[08:10] <BenC> paran: exactly that
[08:11] <BenC> the in-kernel mac80211 is used by a few other drivers, and too big of a risk to just up it to a completely new API
[08:21] <paran> BenC: as I suspected. but it sounds like you have some plan, the "tricky things" you mentioned? having a new iwlwifi-driver would be good as basicly all new laptops seem to have intel 4965agn wifi :)
[08:22] <BenC> paran: were aware of this, but current 4965 works and we don't want to risk degrading that, or other things in order to update it :)
[08:22] <BenC> especially just a little more than a month before release
[08:23] <ivoks> please don't :) ipw3945 untill yesterday didn't work :)
[08:24] <paran> BenC: off course, I am only curious :)
[08:25] <BenC> we wont be switching 3945 support to iwl
[08:25] <BenC> gutsy will support 3945 through ipw3945
[08:32] <paran> by the way I just installed 2.6.22-11 and is again without debug packages. I have put a patch on LP here if somebody could take a look: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/92553
[08:55] <lamont> BenC/amitk: you saw my pull request for hppa abi files?
[08:56] <BenC> lamont: yeah, my fault, I had taken hppa out of my getabi script
[09:03] <lamont> ah, ok
[09:04] <lamont> http://buildd.mmjgroup.com/gutsy-stage0/ is a good base for it if the kernel isn't in ports.u.c...  and I'm working on getting that done this week, to make everyone's life easier
[09:04] <lamont> ( I uploaded -11.32hppa1 to gutsy-stage0, so as long as the files are there in -11.33, I don't need a special upload just for that...)
[09:51] <bdmurray> My laptop has stopped suspending and hibernating is 'pmi action' a good alternate way to test?
[09:52] <IntuitiveNipple> bdmurray: Usually I do it from a virtual terminal....
[09:53] <IntuitiveNipple> ... edit /etc/acpi/sleep.sh and add "set +x" to the top of the file (to enable reporting of script commands)
[09:53] <IntuitiveNipple> then from the terminal I do "sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh force | tee /var/log/sleep.log
[09:53] <IntuitiveNipple> It helps to capture the point where things get mixed up
[09:55] <IntuitiveNipple> The recent updates have fixed the problems I was seeing with suspend, and the snd-hda-intel issues too
[10:01] <IntuitiveNipple> lamont: Which bit?
[10:10] <slavi1> is there a problem with 2.6.20-16 kernel in feisty and usb keyboards?
[10:24] <derjohn> BenC, did I get it right that the iwl won't make it into gutsy? (but lateron?)
[10:45] <BenC> derjohn: no, iwl is already in gutsy, but it's not new enough to support 11n, just a/b/g for 4965 chips
