[02:38]  * lamont2 wonders why this stupid machine doesn't like to read DVDs
[02:39] <lamont2> and somehow I bet that upgrading from -14.46 to -14.47 won't make a diff

[13:36] <Kano> hi, could somebody fix the rt73 driver in 2.6.24?
[13:37] <Kano> also why is always 1 the default for
[13:37] <Kano> + # Oh hell, give 'em one
[13:37] <Kano> + ifeq ($(CONCURRENCY_LEVEL),)
[13:37] <Kano> + CONCURRENCY_LEVEL := 1
[13:37] <Kano> + endif
[13:37] <Kano> i would prefer 2 or 4
[13:38] <Kano> multicore cpus are standard
[19:12] <bdmurray> mdomsch: I have a question about the dell firmware updates
[19:12] <bdmurray> mdomsch: there doesn't seem to be a bios for the dimension 9150 is there a reason it is missing?
[19:28] <mdomsch> bdmurray, what does 'getSystemId' return for that system?
[19:28] <mdomsch> and is it an AMD?
[19:37] <bdmurray> mdomsch: Error getting the System ID
[19:37] <bdmurray> and it is an Intel
[19:42] <mdomsch> eww
[19:42] <mdomsch> hm, try running as root
[19:43] <bdmurray> that helped ;) - System ID:    0x01D1
[19:45] <mdomsch> ok, then run the whole aptitude line, being sure you're root when you execute bootstrap_firmawre
[19:50] <bdmurray> I received lots of "Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched"
[19:55] <bdmurray> mdomsch: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3291/
[19:59] <mdomsch> bdmurray, :-( 
[19:59] <mdomsch> no, that won't work
[19:59] <bdmurray> mdomsch: that's what I thought too
[20:00] <mdomsch> sudo aptitude install $(sudo bootstrap_firmware -a)
[20:00] <mdomsch> notice the second sudo
[20:00] <mdomsch> that's critical
[20:00] <bdmurray> could you update the wiki then?
[20:00] <mdomsch> (I understand why people don't like 'sudo bash, ...'
[20:00] <bdmurray> http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware#Downloading_firmware
[20:01] <bdmurray> oh, that's right
[20:01] <bdmurray> the wiki assumes that you are root right?
[20:01] <mdomsch> yeah...
[20:01] <mdomsch> yeah
[20:01] <mdomsch> that's why I don't put 'sudo' in front of all those lines
[20:02] <mdomsch> you're not the first to have run into this - it happens pretty often
[20:02] <mdomsch> so I need some way to highlight _hey - run all these in a 'sudo bash' shell first..._
[20:02] <bdmurray> and it isn't the first time I have run into either
[20:03] <bdmurray> maybe if you put a prompt there it would be clearer
[20:03] <bdmurray> root@bob:# or something
[20:03] <mdomsch> yeah, I wanted something that could be cut-n-pasted into a script
[20:03] <mdomsch> or a shell directly
[20:05] <bdmurray> so now I should have a new firmware in /usr/share/firmware/bios/ ?
[20:05] <bdmurray> and update_firmware will install it?
[20:08] <mdomsch> yes
[20:09] <bdmurray> I don't actually have a /usr/share/firmware directory
[20:10] <mdomsch> hmm, did aptitude download a system-bios-* package?
[20:10] <bdmurray> It doesn't seem that way
[20:12] <mdomsch> you should have gotten system-bios-dxp051_0.a07-1_all.deb
[20:15] <mdomsch> because that's what provides system-bios-ven-0x1028-dev-0x01d1  which is what the aptitude + bootstrap_firmware command requests
[20:16] <bdmurray> okay, I think I have a better understanding of how it is supposed to work and will try and work it out
[20:17] <mdomsch> sudo bootstrap_firmware -a  should  include a system-bios-* line in it
[20:17] <mdomsch> in its output that is
[20:17] <mdomsch> if it doesn't, that's bad
[20:18] <mdomsch> that comes from the firmware-addon-dell package being installed
[20:20] <bdmurray> I seem to be having some troubles with the wget .. bootstrap.cgi bit but those may be related to aptitude
[20:24] <mdomsch> again, you need to run the output of bootstrap.cgi into a sudo bash shell
[20:25] <mdomsch> it configures /etc/sources.list.d/ entries and GPG keys for same
[20:25] <bdmurray> yeah, I got that bit down now
[20:25] <mdomsch> if that didn't run, then you won't be hitting linux.dell.com to look for packages
[20:34] <bdmurray> I've narrowed it down to dell-repository-keys being untrusted
[20:38] <bdmurray> and I have the libsmbios gpg-key installed
[20:39] <mdomsch> bdmurray, apt-key list shows the libsmbios signing key?
[20:39] <bdmurray> yeah, I'm on hardy by the way
[21:05] <bdmurray> mdomsch: Am I doing something wrong?
[21:05] <mdomsch> bdmurray, pls pastebin exactly what you've typed so far
[21:05] <mdomsch> it should be as simple as I describe on the web page
[21:06] <mdomsch> firmware-addon-dell is installed from the hardy repo, as is firmware-tools
[21:06] <mdomsch> only system-bios-* should come from the linux.dell.com repo
[21:08] <bdmurray> mdomsch: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/3292/
[22:00] <mdomsch> bdmurray, ok, I see your problem
[22:01] <mdomsch> It seems the dell-repository-keys package and dell-firmware-repository, dell-software-repository packages aren't getting installed
[22:02] <mdomsch> because aptitude is throwing up a prompt that the shell script doesn't expect, and thus the piped input fails to acknowledge the prompt
[22:02] <mdomsch> soren, no dell-firmware-repository package
[22:02] <mdomsch> (ooops, nick completion error)
[22:02] <mdomsch> so nothing for bootstrap_firmware to find
[22:06] <bdmurray> mdomsch: so I could work around it by manually installing those then?
[22:06] <mdomsch> yeah
[22:06] <mdomsch> seems I should make the aptitude calls take --assume-yes
[22:09] <mdomsch> ok, bootstrap script now uses --assume-yes
[22:09] <mdomsch> so just try that again
[22:09] <bdmurray> okay, will do thanks
[22:09] <mdomsch> hang on, let me push that...
[22:13] <mdomsch> bdmurray, ok, try now
[22:20] <bdmurray> mdomsch: it is still aborting because they are untrusted
[22:28] <\sh> guys, important problem for everybody using hardy and xfs partitions:) please have a look at bug #180157 thx :)
[22:28] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 180157 in linux "XFS root filesystem - install fails with "noexec or nodev" error" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/180157
[22:39] <mdomsch> arrgh
[22:39] <mdomsch> not sure how to solve that in bootstrap then
[23:15] <mdomsch> bdmurray, I'm upgrading my test box to hardy, and will try to find time this weekend to come up with something.
[23:15] <mdomsch> maybe it'll be:
[23:15] <mdomsch> wget -O bootstrap.sh http://...
[23:16] <mdomsch> sudo bash bootstrap.sh
[23:16] <mdomsch> (hit Y when prompted)
[23:16] <mdomsch> worst case that'll be it...
[23:16] <mdomsch> poke me on Monday if I don't have it fixed
[23:19] <turbotorben> hi
[23:19] <turbotorben> is it possible to get a uvesafb framebuffer working with the latest ubuntu kernel?
