| lamont | BenC: 121978... does a -updates upload of lrm make sense for that? | 18:12 |
| BenC | lamont: yeah | 18:13 |
| lamont | BenC: want me to do it? | 18:13 |
| BenC | lamont: sure | 18:13 |
| lamont | and is there anything else that should go in? | 18:14 |
| BenC | lamont: for lrm, there's a bug about invisible files not getting removed in nvidia-glx packages | 18:19 |
| BenC | Bug #106217 | 18:20 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 106217 in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20 "Hidden file does not get removed when switching from nvidia-glx-new/nvidia-glx-legacy to nvidia-glx causing X not to start due to mismatch of versions" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/106217 | 18:20 |
| BenC | there's a patch | 18:20 |
| lamont | rock | 18:20 |
| lamont | applying provided patches is about my effort level today | 18:21 |
| lamont | BenC: the one that went to the kernel team last week? | 18:23 |
| BenC | lamont: that bug report has a patch to fix the hidden files remaining | 18:25 |
| lamont | right | 18:28 |
| * lamont notes in passing that his definition of "test" for this lrm upload consists of making sure it compiles on gutsy/i386 | 18:35 | |
| zul | sounds about right :) | 18:36 |
| * lamont then needs to debug his laptops video regression with gutsy | 18:38 | |

| zasf | hi all | 19:11 |
| zasf | I'd like to build latest fglrx driver | 19:11 |
| zasf | but (like every time) I have to fight with the kernel headers | 19:11 |
| zasf | it says that the UTS release doesn't match current version: 2.6.22.9 | 19:12 |
| zasf | in gutsy | 19:12 |
| zasf | why that? should kernel version be 2.6.22-14-generic? | 19:12 |
| zasf | should NOT kernel version be 2.6.22-14-generic? | 19:12 |
| Lutin | kylem or BenC : would you mind having a look at bug #129910 please ? | 19:21 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 129910 in linux-source-2.6.22 "tty[1-6] are active but display nothing in Gutsy" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/129910 | 19:21 |
| BenC | zasf: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic | 19:21 |
| zasf | BenC: I have that installed | 19:22 |
| BenC | Lutin: I don't have time to look at it yet | 19:22 |
| Lutin | BenC: ok | 19:22 |
| BenC | zasf: then you have some local problem, or fglrx has a broken build setup | 19:22 |
| BenC | zasf: maybe force the kernel directory somehow | 19:23 |
| BenC | Should point to /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.22-14-generic | 19:23 |
| BenC | zasf: are you building an old fglrx? | 19:23 |
| BenC | zasf: and why not use the one we include? | 19:23 |
| Lutin | (this bug is mistakenly shown as new, it's set as critical on initramfs-tools) | 19:23 |
| zasf | because 8.42.3 brings aiglx support :D | 19:24 |
| zasf | It could be my fault, but I make-kpkg modules_image doesn't work | 19:24 |
| maks_ | Lutin: 129910 is a .config story | 19:24 |
| zasf | The UTS Release version in include/linux/version.h | 19:24 |
| zasf | "2.6.22-14-generic" | 19:24 |
| zasf | does not match current version: | 19:24 |
| zasf | "2.6.22.9" | 19:24 |
| BenC | how does it get 2.6.22.9 as the current version? | 19:25 |
| zasf | I just remove the package and reinstalled it (linxu-headers-generic) | 19:25 |
| BenC | zasf: what does "uname -a" show? | 19:25 |
| zasf | # uname -a | 19:25 |
| zasf | Linux gutsy 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux | 19:25 |
| Lutin | maks_: don't catch why :/ | 19:25 |
| maks_ | Lutin: fb not build modular, BenC had been asked to revert that change irc | 19:26 |
| zasf | that happened before in feisty and edgy. I always have to do a combination of 'make-kpkg debian', make scripts, etc to get it working | 19:26 |
| zasf | and editing include/linux/version.h | 19:27 |
| BenC | maks_: s/revert/re-apply our local patch/ | 19:27 |
| zasf | I like installing kernel modules with "make-kpkg modules_image" and not using mod-ass | 19:27 |
| BenC | maks_: stock kernel doesn't let you build vga16fb modular | 19:27 |
| maks_ | /boot/config-2.6.23-rc9-amd64:CONFIG_FB_VGA16=m | 19:28 |
| Lutin | maks_: it's modular. the issue is that it's not in /lib/modules/whatever/initrd and that the modprobe option used to load the modules in the initrd scripts is different, from what I've read | 19:28 |
| Lutin | s/initrd/initramfs-tools/2 | 19:28 |
| BenC | maks_: maybe it's vesafb that can't be modular then | 19:28 |
| BenC | one of them we've been patching forever and a day | 19:28 |
| maks_ | yes we kicked the b0rked Xu vesafb patch :P | 19:31 |
| * Lutin doesn't understand if what happens to the fb in gutsy is wanted or not | 19:34 | |
| maks_ | Lutin my logs have this | 19:39 |
| maks_ | 21:22 <Lutin> maks_: yeah, but here is the point :) in ubuntu the scripts for an | 19:39 |
| maks_ | y *fb) module. which can't be found, as the framebuffer is not a module in gutsy | 19:39 |
| maks_ | :)21:22 <mjg59> Because somebody changed the config for no obvious reason | 19:39 |
| maks_ | 21:23 <mjg59> BenC: I thought you were changing that back? :) | 19:39 |
| maks_ | #ubuntu-kernel.2007-09-28.log | 19:39 |
| mjg59 | Yes, that was supposed to get changed back | 19:41 |
| Lutin | maks_: well now that's module, but stilln vesafb and fbcon aren't in /lib/modules/whatever/initrd , which still causes them not to be loaded, unless I'm mistaken | 19:44 |
| BenC | mjg59: yeah, rtg got the modular patch back in | 19:45 |
| maks_ | check /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/kernelextras | 19:45 |
| maks_ | Lutin also update-initramfs has a "-v" switch | 19:45 |
| maks_ | tells you exactly whats added to initramfs | 19:46 |
| Lutin | maks_: it tells me it doesn't load it in the initrd | 19:47 |
| maks_ | well then this hook is faulty | 19:51 |
| Lutin | maks_: not sure ... ${MODULESDIR}/initrd/* refers to /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/initrd, right ? | 19:54 |
| maks_ | Lutin have not the ubuntu hook under the eyes, but below there should be other stuff | 19:55 |
| Lutin | maks_: after that there's a case which loads some extra modules, depending on the content of ${MODULESDIR}/initrd/ | 19:57 |
| Lutin | hence my question :) | 19:58 |
| imbrandon | BenC, what is the policy about adding FS's to linux-backport-modules , as the name implied i assume it can be done post release ... | 19:58 |
| zasf | there must be something wrong in debian/ruleset/modules.mk, since it keeps saying that I have 2.6.22.9 | 19:59 |
| BenC | imbrandon: generally that package isn't for adding things, it's mainly for updating hardware drivers | 19:59 |
| * Nafallo wants to shrink an xfs :-/ | 20:00 | |
| BenC | imbrandon: what fs are you talking about? | 20:00 |
| zul | fatx probably | 20:00 |
| imbrandon | fatx , i have been working with zul to get the patches right, its being looked at upstream and fedora has it | 20:00 |
| Nafallo | hehe. imbrandon wants xbox format still ;-) | 20:00 |
| imbrandon | Nafallo, well thanks to zul we got it working ;) | 20:01 |
| zul | BenC: ive added the patch to linux-ubuntu-modules but not backport | 20:01 |
| Nafallo | boxbuntu :-P | 20:01 |
| imbrandon | BenC, if not thats cool, i can deal with just trying to get it in for hardy | 20:01 |
| imbrandon | i was just wondering | 20:01 |
| Lutin | maks_: yep, that's it. comes from fbcon and vesafb not being in /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/initrd | 20:02 |
| BenC | imbrandon: oh, we can get it in for hardy in linux-ubuntu-modules (backports-modules is for post-release updates that are too intrusive for linux-source/lum) | 20:03 |
| zul | BenC: ill send a patch tonight then | 20:03 |
| imbrandon | ahh sounds great, i was just hopeing ;) i'll keep poking zul then and we'll just target hardy | 20:03 |
| * zul is swiss cheese | 20:04 | |
| imbrandon | zul, btw i'll leave that .img file up too incase someone wants to test it without an xbox | 20:04 |
| imbrandon | at the same url | 20:04 |
| zul | sure | 20:04 |
| imbrandon | i was looking too fatx is VERY similar to fat32 | 20:05 |
| imbrandon | lol | 20:05 |
| imbrandon | to bad it couldent have "just worked"(tm) | 20:05 |
| JordiR | hello | 21:55 |
| JordiR | can somebody tell how can I blacklist a restricted driver? | 21:55 |
| JordiR | I mean, to not be loaded on boot time | 21:55 |
| JordiR | what is the file that I need to modify? | 21:56 |
| JordiR | Nobody knows it? | 22:04 |
| Lutin | /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-* ? | 22:06 |
| Lutin | (don't know, just guessing) | 22:06 |
| JordiR | I've found it googling it's /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common | 22:08 |
| JordiR | Thanks anyway | 22:08 |
| tonyyarusso | Hi, I was wondering if someone could please give an answer regarding a) The reasoning behind the changes that caused, and b) The most "proper" way to go about fixing Bug #129910. (I'd be very grateful to the person who gives me my consoles back...) | 23:47 |

| tonyyarusso | (Note the _17_ duplicates too) | 23:47 |
| Lutin | tonyyarusso: asked the channel before, got no real answer. although the causes of the bug are well known, there doesn't to be a hurry about fixing that bug | 23:51 |
| tonyyarusso | Lutin: :( | 23:51 |
| tonyyarusso | Well, I'll wait and see what I can learn for now at least. | 23:52 |
| Lutin | I'd be happy to work on a patch if needed, and even more to get a real answer. the fact that it got no answer while being set as critical for a month is quite disappointing | 23:53 |
| mjg59 | Remove vga= from your kernel command line | 23:53 |
| tonyyarusso | mjg59: That results in a completely unusable console resolution. | 23:55 |
| Lutin | mjg59: or fox on you system, I know. what I don't get is why no one in the team even bothered answering to the bug. if you don't want to support fb, I can't get why don't you tell it and close the bug | 23:55 |
| Lutin | fix* | 23:55 |
| tonyyarusso | mjg59: It works for an occasional cp or whatever, but trying to run irssi or anything else meaningful is a lost cause. | 23:56 |
