[08:03] <abogani> amitk: Are you around? May i disturb you with a couple of simple questions?
[08:03] <amitk> abogani: yes?
[08:04] <abogani> amitk: about https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2007-December/001948.html
[08:05] <abogani> amitk: Should i provide patches for enable building fo the rt flavour and for add rt packages into control file?
[08:06] <amitk> abogani: if you can provide those patches, it will speed up the process. Otherwise one of us will have to spend time enabling and testing the build.
[08:07] <abogani> amitk: Ok. I start working on.
[08:08] <amitk> abogani: thanks
[08:16] <abogani> amitk: Thank you.
[08:32] <abogani> amitk: Mhhhh. Seems to me that http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=debian/binary-custom.d/README is outdate...
[09:00] <amitk> abogani: you are right. While moving to the new tree, one of my patches has gone missing. It should be like this: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-gutsy.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=debian/binary-custom.d/README
[09:05] <abogani> amitk: I have a doubt. For add a custom kernel this link say to edit debian/rules.d/ARCH.mk file but seems to me that only necessary change is in debian/rules.d/0-common-vars.mk at line 92 (all_custom_flavours). 
[10:13] <abogani> henrix: Hi Luis, Good news: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2007-December/001948.html
[10:17] <henrix> abogani: hi! just saw the mail in the list :)
[10:17] <henrix> abogani: that's nice ;)
[10:17] <henrix> I'll just clone it ;)
[10:21] <abogani> henrix: I already do a short test on my i386 (x86_32) desktop and it works fine.
[10:23] <henrix> abogani: tonight I'll try it on my laptop and maybe on a amd64. I'll let you know if I have any problem
[10:26] <abogani> henrix: Ok. Thank you.
[10:27] <henrix> abogani: np :)
[11:07] <abogani> Someone could suggest me where i can buy Ubuntu pre-installed systems? Or at least deliver their products in Italy? I'm live in Italy.... Thank you!
[11:13] <gaspa> abogani: good question. :)
[21:05] <austen> Good afternoon. Hoping someone here can help me with why 7.10 i386 desktop edition kernel dies on boot up after install, as well as from the install CD directly.
[21:06] <austen> Getting "BUG: ubable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000" with a further "abnormal exit from /sbin/modprobe"
[21:07] <austen> Boot sequence ends with /root/device does not exist.
[21:39] <superm1> the 2.6.22 ubuntu kernel can't recognize lzma compressed squashfs filesystems can it?
[21:42] <mjg59> No
[21:45] <superm1> that would explain some things then.  lzma appears to be the default for mksquashfs as of hardy
[21:45] <superm1> when will 2.6.24 go active as default for hardy then?
[22:19] <austen> I have a question about the difference in IDE support between 2.6.17-i386 and 2.6.22-14-i386 kernels. The kernel that ships standard with 7.10 fails to mount my root partition, saying "ALERT! /dev/hda1 does not exist..."
[22:25] <austen> Hmmn.. 2.6.20 seems to boot...
[22:25] <Nafallo> austen: #ubuntu
[22:25] <Nafallo> austen: this is not a support channel
[22:26] <austen> Yeah... Tried there.. Sorry for bugging you.
[22:37] <jayson_r> anyone active in here?
[22:49] <Nafallo> no
[22:51] <jayson_r> I was just wondering how to get involved with the kernel team - it's my biggest area of interest - although I'm not a 'coder' I would love to learn more about making the configs, building the packages, etc, as well as testing out new builds and filing bug reports, etc. - that is if you have room for a 'student' on the kernel team...
[22:52]  * Nafallo waits for one of the employees to answer that one.
[22:53] <jayson_r> So, I take it from that answer, only Employee's work on the Kernel? If so, that's cool - I just thought I would ask :-)
[22:53] <Nafallo> no
[22:53] <jayson_r> oh ok.
[22:53] <Nafallo> that's not the case, but "student" sounds like you want a teacher.
[22:53] <henrix> jayson_r: you can start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[22:53] <jayson_r> Well, I need 'direction' - I don't know where to start
[22:54] <jayson_r> henrix: Thanks!
[22:54] <henrix> (no, I am not a Canonical employee :) )
[22:55] <jayson_r> henrix: I know that much - I know the mechanics of how to complie a kernel, etc., just need direction on how to get involved and contribute back to the distro
[22:55] <henrix> jayson_r: ok, so you just need to follow the links on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam
[22:56] <henrix> jayson_r: ah! and you can also create an account on LP and take a look on bug reports ;)
[22:57] <jayson_r> henrix: THATS the info I was looking for - thank you so much - BTW, I'm already on LP https://launchpad.net/~jayson-r 
[22:57] <henrix> jayson_r: np ;)
[22:57] <henrix> jayson_r: good luck then :-)
[22:58] <jayson_r> henrix: Thanks again!
[23:50] <zul> jayson_r: no anyone can work on the kernel, bug triaging is a good place to start 
[23:51]  * Nafallo count zul as employee ;-)
[23:51] <zul> Nafallo: no im not
[23:52] <Nafallo> zul: yes you are. but not of that company :-)
[23:55] <jayson_r> Thanks guys - I just joined the Kernel Bugs team in LP
[23:56] <jayson_r> So, I assume I look through https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bugs and find something I can fix?
[23:56] <lamont> BenC: is the logic that anyone who wants to be on kernel bugs deserves it?
[23:57] <lamont> :-)
[23:57] <lamont> BenC: doing the installs on on the christmas presents today, fwiw
[23:57] <lamont> so, uh, christmas is gonna be late
[23:57] <zul> jayson_r: sure i would just go through the kernel team docs to see if the bug reports provide enough information first
[23:59] <jayson_r> zul: reading through docs as we type
[23:59] <zul> jayson_r: cool
