[02:39] <pkh> i'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?)

[02:42] <pkh> zul, 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...
[02:43] <pkh> i find anything more complicated than 'how do I enable desktop effects' or 'how do I play a dvd' are too in depth there...
[04:53] <fuzzy> is 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] <fuzzy> headers aren't going to be enough alone
[05:29] <pkh> what 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...)

[06:44] <fdv> FuzzyB: are you looking for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile ?
[06:44] <FuzzyB> i think that will work thanks fdv
[06:46] <fdv> FuzzyB: np. let me know if you find out how to add something to EXTRAVERSION using the debian/rules approach :)
[06:47] <FuzzyB> i will right now i'm trying to get something sane with open-iscsi+xen for open solaris iscsi targets to work correctly
[06:47] <fdv> I don't envy you ;)
[06:49] <FuzzyB> nor does anyone else that's already seen the answer to my bug query on the open-iscsi mailing lists
[06:49] <FuzzyB> and i guess the bug is very minor
[06:50] <fdv> :(
[06:51] <FuzzyB> yea
[06:51] <fdv> I 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..
[07:24] <fdv> FuzzyB: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild might also come in handy, btw
[07:25] <FuzzyB> thx
[07:25] <FuzzyB> i think this is going to work though
[07:25] <FuzzyB> i found what i was missing
[07:25] <FuzzyB> apt-get source .......
[07:25] <fdv> great :)
[07:25] <fdv> I don't think there's a simple way to avoid name clashes, though..
[07:26] <fdv> but if you're building a custom kernel anyhow, that might be of no consequence
[07:27] <FuzzyB> i don't want to do that
[07:27] <FuzzyB> i just want enough of the current running kernel to compile these modules correctly
[07:28] <fdv> ah, right
[07:28] <fdv> so you're not even going to use it :)
[07:28] <FuzzyB> i hope not
[07:28] <fdv> (or run it)
[07:28] <FuzzyB> i will if i need too
[07:29] <FuzzyB> but frankly i'm trying to be as un custom as possible
[07:29] <FuzzyB> if i can just build the binaries i can post them with my howto

[11:59] <abogani> @seen BenC
[12:00] <zul> probably not up yet
[12:13] <zul> cool http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2007/11/1/377768
[12:13] <Kano> hi, why did nobody answer to the mailinglist suggestion of the raid 5 patch
[12:20] <Kano> there ARE lots of bug entries already
[12:20] <Kano> not from me,but they are there
[13:33] <Daviey> Is the roundtable currently happening?
[13:41] <Nafallo> Daviey: Fujitsu said he was on that, so yea.
[13:45] <zul> BenC: have a look at that link I sent earlier to #-kernel it might able to help out for debugging suspend issues
[13:45] <BenC> didn't see it
[13:46] <zul> ill resend it when I get back up to my desk
[13:46] <BenC> zul: did you see where xen paravirt is an option in 2.6.24-git?
[13:47] <zul> BenC: not really...but no other distro is using xen paravirt for 2.6.24 (ie novell,redhat)
[13:47] <BenC> No, I mean it's in the kernel upstream
[13:48] <zul> yeah, I am saying that no distro is shipping it
[13:48] <zul> its not in the paravirt-ops options?
[13:49] <Daviey> BenC: 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?
[13:50] <BenC> Daviey: it's in progress
[13:50] <Daviey> woot
[13:51] <Daviey> thanks
[14:07] <zul> BenC: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2007/11/1/377771 <-- this iw what I was talking about
[14:19] <zul> whoever blew there nose not do it into the speaker so my eardrums do rupture again, thanks
[21:24] <sioux> hi folks
[21:24] <sioux> little problem with rt kernel
[21:25] <sioux> no build folder in /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-rt
[21:25] <sioux> I can not compile kernel modules
[21:27] <mjg59> Have you installed the headers?
[21:28] <sioux> yes
[21:28] <mjg59> Hm
[21:28] <sioux> nvidia is ok
[21:29] <sioux> sudo make clean and sudo make distclean under /usr/src/v4l-dvb$  is ok
[21:30] <sioux> but sudo make ko
[21:30] <sioux> File not found: /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-rt/build/.config at ./scripts/make_kconfig.pl line 32, <IN> line 4.
[21:30] <sioux> with non rt kernel is ok
[21:31] <sioux> :-(
[21:32] <sioux> the problem is saa7134_dvb: Unknown symbol videobuf_dvb_unregister
[21:34] <sioux> sudo modprobe saa7134_dvb gives Invalid module format
[21:34] <sioux> so I need to recompile all saa7134 modules for rt kernel
