mateuszHi, Is ubuntu kernel patched with hdaps_protect ?14:49
amitkmateusz: is that part of tp_smapi?14:54
mateuszamitk: no14:56
amitkmateusz: then file a bug, mark it as wishlist and describe why it should be in Ubuntu14:58

ubotuLaunchpad bug 139881 in linux-source-2.6.22 "hdaps_protect patch to enable disk head parking on thinkpads" [Wishlist,Won't fix] 15:02
mateuszthe bug is already there15:02

ubotuLaunchpad bug 97655 in linux-source-2.6.20 "dmraid45 target please" [Wishlist,Won't fix] 15:05
Kanortg: what about that patch15:05
amitkmateusz: it has been rejected for Ubuntu hardy, please read Ben Collins' comment15:06
mateuszok.. then can someone provide patch for Ubuntu users that applies on ubuntu kernel?15:08
amitkmateusz: you should comment on the bug or ask the original patch submitter to do that.15:10
mateuszamitk: patch submitter is debian user.. and patch doesnt applay on 2.4.22 ubuntu kernel15:12
amitkmateusz: unfortunately, we can't help you here. It isn't a patch that is supported by the kernel-team.15:13
Kanortg: btw. there will be an updated aufs for 2.6.24 soon15:17
Kanobut i think you have enough to do for now *g*15:17
Kanobbl15:17
mateuszamitk: well someone said that tp_smapi will be in ubuntu.. and hdapsd hdaps-utils are already in gutsy.. they're useless without hdaps_protect15:18
lagamateusz: that discussion already is in the ticket15:18
_MMA_Maybe I'm out of the loop but where is BenC?15:18
mateuszlaga: but why you're willing to put tp_smapi in ubuntu kernel and also saying me that hdaps_protect is not your team job ? 15:19
lagamateusz: i'm not part of the kernel team15:20
mateuszlaga: hdapsd + tp_smapi + hdaps_protect is needed for this to work15:20
mateuszbut someone said tp_smapi will be next week in ubuntu kernel15:20
mateuszit wont work either without hdaps_protect15:20
mateuszamitk: ?15:23
* laga must have gotten something mixed up then15:23
smbmateusz: I added the tp_smapi drivers to lum. With hdaps_protect you mean the hdaps driver from tp_smapi or another one?15:24
amitkmateusz: smb here is looking at the integration of tp_smapi. One of the reasons to integrate it was for finer grained battery charging control.15:24
mateuszsmb: I think about  queue freeze support for ATA15:25
mateuszsmb: aka hdaps_protect15:25
mateuszsomething diffrent than hdaps driver and tp_smapi15:25
mateuszamitk: ok I understand...15:27
mateuszamitk: istead of acpi ?15:27
smbmateusz: I have a quick look at the bug you mentioned, to get myself updated15:27
amitkright15:27
smbmateusz: No, additionally15:27
smbmateusz: I just looked at the hdaps_protect patch, and I must agree with ben. It touches quite a lot different places (especially ll_rw_blk.c) to simply include it. The tp_smapi and the hdaps driver there can just be added to lum without them beeing active.15:37
mateuszsmb: Zhenech says, that patch for 2.6.24 sometimes doesnt work.. system breaks.. but for some RC its fine...15:41
smbmateusz: For patches like that it is better to have them at least in the -mm tree and then moving to mainline.15:51
amitkmateusz: have you talked to patch author on why the patch is not upstrea>15:53

Kanoamitk: apm_32 missing (tested server target)19:10
amitkKano: what is apm_32?19:45
mjg59The apm module got renamed apm_32 in .24 by accident19:46
mjg59It was going to be changed back, but I don't know if that's happened in stable19:46
Kanoamitk: you never seem to compile your kernel ;)19:47
amitkmjg59: it was fixed in 2.6.24.119:47
amitkKano: we do, but not on your schedules :)19:47
salty-horsewill the recently discovered user->root exploit be patched soon? should I worry?19:50
rtgsalty-horse: it will be upload later this afternoon.19:51
rtgs/upload/uploaded/19:51
salty-horseIf all services/ports are closed, and I don't run unknown binaries, should I be safe?19:51
rtgsalty-horse: Given that its an exploit that has existed since 2.6.17, you ought to be OK for the next few hours.19:53
salty-horseyeah, but I thought it was "in the wild" only recently :D19:53
rtgwell, its certainly becoming more well known in the last few days.19:54
JanCsalty-horse: you can always kick untrusted local users off your machines  ;-)19:56
salty-horseI'll have to rig some alarm system first :)19:57
Kanortg: ok is maybe wrong as the exploit is new. can be dangerous for multiuser systems19:58
