johanbrAccording to the topic, the latest kernel upload seems to have been in progress for about a month now. :)02:16
pwnguinseems true02:16
pwnguinat the moment, the package "linux" holds the 2.6.24 kernel02:17
pwnguinbut im missing a few restricted drivers and iwl02:17
johanbrIt does? My mirror doesn't have a 2.6.24 kernel at least.02:17
pwnguinin hardy?02:18
pwnguinapt-cache show linux02:18
pwnguinoh02:18
johanbrRight. No 2.6.24 kernel.02:18
pwnguingood point02:18
pwnguinapt-cache show 2.6.24 does show up though02:19
johanbrOh, never mind. I'm stupid. Found it.02:21

imbrandonBenC: ping, how much trubble ( or what do you need from me to make is easier/faster ) to get "omfs-source" from the archives into l-u-m06:00

Kanocould someone tell me how to check for the kernelversion used in a rules.modules file?08:42
Kanoi have got KVER in there as var...08:44
Kanook, found a solution for that, but that only fixes things for 2.6.23 (avm drivers)10:17
=== andres__ is now known as andres
gaspathere's someone with slub/slab experience? i want to understand when to use the first, when the latter...10:41
andresgaspa: Except for bugs in slab I dont think there are many valid reasons using slab.10:57
andresReplace first slab with slub.10:58
gaspaandres: there are no cases in which slab if more efficient?10:58
andresMaybe there are some, but not out of architectural reasons.11:00
andresAnd be aware that there were some bugs making slub way much slower in 24-rc? releases.11:02
pittiBenC: so, maybe I'm confused13:44
pittiBut https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/57233/comments/1213:44
ubotuLaunchpad bug 57233 in linux-source-2.6.15 "Minor revision 2.6.15-26 doesn't detect attached SCSI disks to LSI 1030ST" [High,In progress] 13:44
pittiseems to indicate that this bit was a regression:13:44
pittilinux-source-2.6.15 (2.6.15-51.63) dapper-proposed; urgency=low13:44
pitti * megaraid: Move AMI/Megaraid3 IDs from megaraid_mbox.ko to megaraid.ko13:44
pitti * megaraid: Move AMI/Megaraid3 IDs from megaraid_mbox.ko to megaraid.ko13:44
pitti    - LP: #5723313:44
pitti(oops, sorry for the double line)13:44
pittiBenC: ah, so you do plan to back out that change to get back to the current dapper-security behaviour, and fix the bug in lbm instead?13:45
BenCpitti: right13:45
pittiok, then I just misunderstood you13:45
pittiBenC: ok, so the backing out of this bit should be easy and do little harm, right?13:46
BenCpitti: right, now we're on track :)13:46
pittilet's hope that Vide tests the new lbm then13:47
pittiBenC: but unless you have some other showstoppers, shall we get this uploaded and new CDs built for testing?13:48
BenCpitti: I think that's a good idea, ppl can test in the meantime13:48
BenCpitti: I'll get the uploads done once I've had a cup of coffee13:49
pittiBenC: enjoy, and thanks13:49
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
BenCpitti: lbm-2.6.15 is in dapper-proposed awaiting approval15:47
pittiBenC: nudged, thanks15:50
BenCpitti: I'm checking if this megaraid change breaks ABI, after that I'll upload16:17
pittiBenC: *crossing fingers that it won't* :)16:17
=== Traxer is now known as Traxer|on
=== Traxer|on is now known as Traxer
=== _fs is now known as fs
BenCpitti: good news, no change in ABI17:14
pittiphew17:14
pittiBenC: so, dapper.2 meeting in 5?17:54
BenCpitti: yeah17:54
pittiBenC: ah, I know why I didn't notice the mpt symbol error in my existing dapper install20:01
pittiBenC: in d-i, it prefers the driver from lbm, but in an installed system it prefers the one from linux-image20:01
pittiBenC: at least I get 3.03.04 loaded20:02
pittiBenC: that's both in my permanent dapper vmware as well as the one I just test-installed20:05
pittiBenC: modules.dep does not have any "/updates/" in it; after a depmod -a it has20:07
pittiBenC: might the reason be that the one in /updates had the faulty symbols?20:13
BenCpitti: make sure depmod -a is run, and update-initramfs -u afterwards20:14
pittiBenC: right, after depmod -a I get the new version20:16
pittiBenC: my concern is, if in a fresh install the old version is used, then that sounds like a bug?20:16
pitti(i. e. the default modules.dep is wrong)20:16
BenCpitti: lbm should be running depmod, and update-initramfs, at least it did on my system20:17
* pitti upgrades to the new lbm in -proposed and tests further20:17
maks_BenC: initramfs-tools in unstable has pretty stabilized20:23
maks_so if you wana go for long term support a merge would be cool20:23
maks_can lend my eyes to the resulting diff20:23
maks_:)20:23
pittiBenC: ah, after upgrading to new lbm I get 3.03.09 by default on boot, so that looks good20:24
pittiBenC: I'll test it again tomorrow when it's on the CD (the modules.dep issue)20:24
pittiBenC: hmm: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/56885/comments/6 :(20:38
