| goldphish | Is there a way to use menuconfig to configure a kernel and still use debian/rules to build it? | 02:37 |
|---|---|---|
| johanbr | goldphish: I usually run menuconfig (or whatever) first and then do "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd kernel_headers kernel_image". | 02:45 |
| goldphish | I tried that but then linux-restricted-modules and linux-ubuntu-modules fails in random ways | 02:47 |
| goldphish | This whole process is way more complex than it needs to be. All I was is a single module that debian was too stubborn to include in their kernel. (it's in the vanilla) | 02:48 |
| johanbr | goldphish: So just build that single module, then. | 02:55 |
| goldphish | how? | 02:59 |
| johanbr | Which module is it? | 03:00 |
| goldphish | keyspan | 03:00 |
| goldphish | it's in the kernel source | 03:01 |
| goldphish | so there is no seperate package for it | 03:01 |
| goldphish | there was some political drama over licensing and Debian decided not to include it. Everyone else is fine with it | 03:01 |
| mjg59 | goldphish: That implies that this isn't really the right place to be asking... | 03:02 |
| goldphish | mjg59: why not? | 03:02 |
| mjg59 | Or is it also disabled in Ubuntu? | 03:02 |
| mjg59 | We don't use Debian's kernels | 03:02 |
| goldphish | yeah | 03:02 |
| goldphish | whoops, I meant to say it's not included in Ubuntu kernels either | 03:03 |
| goldphish | but the problem originated with Debian | 03:03 |
| johanbr | There is a module named keyspan in the Feisty kernel I'm running right now. | 03:03 |
| goldphish | interesting; it's missing in the gutsy kernel | 03:04 |
| goldphish | aka 2.6.22-14-generic | 03:04 |
| johanbr | Bug report, including a link to a deb someone built: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/132106 | 03:06 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 132106 in linux-source-2.6.22 "[gutsy] keyspan serial adapter not detected" [Low,Triaged] | 03:06 |
| goldphish | nice | 03:07 |
| shenki | how would one go about finding what git revision a released kernel comes from? | 04:44 |
| goldphish | I created a kernel using make-kpkg. How do I go about rebuilding linux-restricted-modules? It wants to build for "flavours" though there really isn't one | 05:38 |

| crispin | BenC__: I'm trying to get the fusion driver working in dapper on a Sun x4100, but have found what I think is a bug in the linux-backports-modules package - the mutex_init() wrapper calls sema_init(..., 0), that locks up the booting for me | 16:52 |
| crispin | shouldn't it be sema_init(..., 1) ? | 16:52 |
| BenC__ | crispin: that's possible...any chance you could test that? | 16:53 |
| === BenC__ is now known as BenC | ||
| crispin | yeah, it boots | 16:53 |
| crispin | (with 1) | 16:53 |
| BenC | does the driver work though? | 16:53 |
| crispin | not quite - it claims I have a 'generic sg1 type 0' scsi device | 16:53 |
| crispin | it doesn't find the partitions | 16:54 |
| crispin | with the 0 in the sema_init it locks up after a line like: "scsi0: ioc0: LSISAS1064: FwRev=...., Ports=1, MaxQ=511, IRQ=16" | 16:55 |
| Kano | hi, did somebody test a kernel with # CONFIG_IDE is not set | 17:03 |
| Kano | thats the one and only way to boot for some systems | 17:03 |
| Kano | kanotix thorhammer rc7 uses this kind of kernel, modified 2.6.24-3 kernel, patched to 2.6.24-rc6-git7, additional dmraid patch and secperm | 17:05 |
| Kano | samsung x65 can not boot with a "generic" kernel | 17:06 |

| === \sh_away is now known as \sh | ||
| BenC | lamont: yes, thanks...I'm hoping to get time today to mess around with it | 18:42 |
| lamont | BenC: ok. the machines both think that they're $mumble.lamont, and fetch an addr from dhcp | 18:59 |
| lamont | and if you want, I have mac addrs | 19:00 |
| BenC | np, I have open dhcp on my lan | 19:00 |
| rtg | BenC: I see that ia64 has section conflict errors similar to powerpc64-smp | 19:09 |
| BenC | rtg: yeah, starting to sound like a 64-bit issue, but sparc64/hppa64 seem unaffected | 19:10 |
| BenC | rtg: possibly forcing gcc-4.1 would be a good idea on ia64 (which I can test once I get this new ia64 up and running) | 19:10 |
| rtg | BenC: sounds good. | 19:11 |
| BenC | rtg: somehow the linux-headers-2.6.24-x-powerpc64 package needs to depend on gcc-4.1 | 19:11 |
| BenC | rtg: so we don't have to force that build-dep in lum/lrm/lbm | 19:12 |
| BenC | which is what I did temporarily | 19:12 |
| rtg | BenC: right. | 19:14 |
| rtg | BenC: should hppa64 have the same Build-Depends as powerpc64 in linux-headers? For example, gcc-4.1-hppa64 [hppa] and binutils-hppa64 [hppa] | 19:27 |
| BenC | rtg: yeah, it should | 19:27 |
| BenC | then we can remove those hardcoded build-deps from lum/lrm/lbm too | 19:27 |
| rtg | BenC: well, we'll have to futz with the kernel arch Makefile for hppa in order to ensure it uses the correct compiler. | 19:28 |
| BenC | rtg: no, it is already setup that way | 19:29 |
| bluefoxicy | Are Ubuntu kernel modules digitally signed such that they will load if Ubuntu boots with "enforcemodulesig" | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | BenC: I've got a new lrm readyish with updated fglrx & nvidia-glx-new (stable releases). I've been running the new nvidia for over a week now without too much trouble | 22:32 |
| tjaalton | but there's a bug report about nvidia not being uninstallable that I need to check before I'd upload it | 22:34 |
| tjaalton | if you don't mind me doing that, I mean | 22:35 |
| tjaalton | fglrx 7.12 seems to have some issues with widescreen resolutions though, but on the other hand the current version leaks memory | 22:46 |

| Kano | tjaalton: well best wait for 8-1 | 23:16 |
| tjaalton | Kano: no idea what the marketing name is, but apparently 8.45 is the next "traditional" version | 23:20 |
| Kano | i know | 23:20 |
| Kano | i still would prefer 8.39.4, because gl2benchmark works with it | 23:21 |
| Kano | and googleeath too | 23:21 |
| tjaalton | we have 8.43 already | 23:21 |
| Kano | but thats a crappy version | 23:21 |
| tjaalton | they all are :) | 23:22 |
| Kano | 8.40 had that googleearth bug | 23:22 |
| Kano | all newer can not render correctly | 23:22 |
| tjaalton | besides, whatever the version, it needs to work with 2.6.24rc kernel and xserver-1.4 | 23:22 |
| Kano | it does | 23:22 |
| Kano | my script can show it to you ;) | 23:23 |
| tjaalton | no point to go back | 23:23 |
| Kano | http://kanotix.com/files/install-fglrx-debian.sh | 23:23 |
| Kano | install-fglrx-debian.sh -v 8.39.4 | 23:23 |
| Kano | it can install ANY version | 23:23 |
| Kano | for 2.6.24 down to 8.39.4 | 23:23 |
| BenC | tjaalton: excellent, thanks | 23:24 |
| tjaalton | BenC: great, I'll upload it tomorrow, but without the new ati as it seems to have issues with latest 2.6.24rc's and some widescreen resolutions.. | 23:24 |
| Kano | and with 7-11 and below with firegl cards ;) | 23:25 |
| Kano | until you patch it and replace the control file | 23:25 |
| Kano | btw. with my new thorhammer iso you can do funny things like: fglrx=v:8.39.4 to dl and install that specific driver on the fly | 23:32 |
| Kano | also it has CONFIG_IDE unset.. | 23:33 |
| Kano | it seems you have fear to use this | 23:33 |
| Kano | but it is the best fix to get around some issues like samsung x65 and a nforce 430 board that has only problems with 2.6.24 generic (but not 2.6.22) | 23:34 |
| Kano | http://kanotix.com/files/thorhammer/kernel-2.6.24/linux/linux_2.6.24-3.5+c0.kanotix.1.tar.gz | 23:36 |
| Kano | patched up to 2.6.24-rc6-git7 - extra patches the custom kernel way | 23:36 |
| Kano | all ubuntu standard kernels disabled | 23:37 |
| Kano | also i set the default to concurrency level 4 | 23:39 |
| Kano | for faster compile with standard pbuilder | 23:39 |
| Kano | 1 is a bad fallback | 23:40 |
