pkhi'm trying to update the current sierra usb-serial driver and running into some problems -- if this is the wrong place, then sorry (and could you suggest a more appriate channel?)02:39

=== chuck_ is now known as zul
pkhzul, any chance of a really quick qn here?  the build is failing in the jiffies.h include file before even getting to the main sierra code...02:42
pkhi find anything more complicated than 'how do I enable desktop effects' or 'how do I play a dvd' are too in depth there...02:43
fuzzyis there a howto somewhere that will show me how to basically rebuild the linux source tree for gutsy in /usr/src so I can use it to compile a module?04:53
fuzzyheaders aren't going to be enough alone04:53
pkhwhat is the procedure to get later versions of a kernel driver (sierra.c) included in the ubuntu kernel?  it's at 1.0.6 but 1.2.5c is the latest.  i've successfully built and used 1.2.5c (and added a new model to it's list -- which I need to find out how to get my changes included as well...)05:29
=== fuzzy_ is now known as FuzzyB
fdvFuzzyB: are you looking for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile ?06:44
FuzzyBi think that will work thanks fdv06:44
fdvFuzzyB: np. let me know if you find out how to add something to EXTRAVERSION using the debian/rules approach :)06:46
FuzzyBi will right now i'm trying to get something sane with open-iscsi+xen for open solaris iscsi targets to work correctly06:47
fdvI don't envy you ;)06:47
FuzzyBnor does anyone else that's already seen the answer to my bug query on the open-iscsi mailing lists06:49
FuzzyBand i guess the bug is very minor06:49
fdv:(06:50
FuzzyByea06:51
fdvI guess my problem is slightly more mainstream. moving to SLUB caused 2.6.22-14 to break suspend with the fglrx module (ati GPUs), which I guess affects most thinkpad users..06:51
fdvFuzzyB: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild might also come in handy, btw07:24
FuzzyBthx07:25
FuzzyBi think this is going to work though07:25
FuzzyBi found what i was missing07:25
FuzzyBapt-get source .......07:25
fdvgreat :)07:25
fdvI don't think there's a simple way to avoid name clashes, though..07:25
fdvbut if you're building a custom kernel anyhow, that might be of no consequence07:26
FuzzyBi don't want to do that07:27
FuzzyBi just want enough of the current running kernel to compile these modules correctly07:27
fdvah, right07:28
fdvso you're not even going to use it :)07:28
FuzzyBi hope not07:28
fdv(or run it)07:28
FuzzyBi will if i need too07:28
FuzzyBbut frankly i'm trying to be as un custom as possible07:29
FuzzyBif i can just build the binaries i can post them with my howto07:29

zulprobably not up yet12:00
zulcool http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2007/11/1/37776812:13
Kanohi, why did nobody answer to the mailinglist suggestion of the raid 5 patch12:13
Kanothere ARE lots of bug entries already12:20
Kanonot from me,but they are there12:20
DavieyIs the roundtable currently happening?13:33
NafalloDaviey: Fujitsu said he was on that, so yea.13:41
zulBenC: have a look at that link I sent earlier to #-kernel it might able to help out for debugging suspend issues13:45
BenCdidn't see it13:45
zulill resend it when I get back up to my desk13:46
BenCzul: did you see where xen paravirt is an option in 2.6.24-git?13:46
zulBenC: not really...but no other distro is using xen paravirt for 2.6.24 (ie novell,redhat)13:47
BenCNo, I mean it's in the kernel upstream13:47
zulyeah, I am saying that no distro is shipping it13:48
zulits not in the paravirt-ops options?13:48
DavieyBenC: I tried the 2.6.24 tree yesterday, and it's still very much 2.6.22 .  How soon do you think the rebasing will really kick off?13:49
BenCDaviey: it's in progress13:50
Davieywoot13:50
Davieythanks13:51
zulBenC: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2007/11/1/377771 <-- this iw what I was talking about14:07
zulwhoever blew there nose not do it into the speaker so my eardrums do rupture again, thanks14:19
siouxhi folks21:24
siouxlittle problem with rt kernel21:24
siouxno build folder in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-rt21:25
siouxI can not compile kernel modules21:25
mjg59Have you installed the headers?21:27
siouxyes21:28
mjg59Hm21:28
siouxnvidia is ok21:28
siouxsudo make clean and sudo make distclean under /usr/src/v4l-dvb$  is ok21:29
siouxbut sudo make ko21:30
siouxFile not found: /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-rt/build/.config at ./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 32, <IN> line 4.21:30
siouxwith non rt kernel is ok21:30
sioux:-(21:31
siouxthe problem is saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol videobuf_dvb_unregister21:32
siouxsudo modprobe saa7134_dvb gives Invalid module format21:34
siouxso I need to recompile all saa7134 modules for rt kernel21:34
