Thanks a lot! :-) [10:45] I got an nVidia graphics card, and when I boot using kernel 2.6.24-12, the virtual console is blank (can only see the cursor), and Xorg doesn't work, nor does sound, I use nvidia-glx-new. So I have to use the 2.6.24-11 kernel & downgrade nvidia-glx-new in order to make my laptop work [10:47] AnAnt: install linux-generic [10:49] tjaalton: is that supposed to bring in another package ? [10:49] tjaalton: both linux-image-generic & linux-restricted-modules-generic are up to date [10:49] asac: I am the one who is quotted on this thread : http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/27726 [10:51] AnAnt: ok, so file a bug [10:59] ok [11:03] tjaalton: btw, there is a bug I filed a year ago, and it still didnt get fixed (bug #146151) [11:03] Launchpad bug 146151 in linux-source-2.6.24 "pcspkr module causes hangup on HP Pavilion dv6391 when system beeps" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/146151 [11:05] rzr: hi. [11:05] thanks [11:06] rzr: do you know about an ubnutu bug about this? [11:07] so, is there something I should do (subscribe someone or put some tag) to make developers look at it ? [11:07] rzr: maybe include the link to that thread in your mail. [11:07] asac: this patch is included in kernel package i think [11:07] ah ok. [11:08] mailed [11:08] thx [11:09] but andrew morton help to get it upstream [11:10] btw, ubutunu violated debian policy when the accepted a patch upstream refused :) [11:13] asac: [11:13] * acpi: DSDT from initramfs patch [11:13] - GIT-SHA 7b650b00d82ec5c80452b2f99de1cfdbae2a465b [11:14] most /usr/share/doc/linux-image-2.6.20-16-386/changelog.Debian.gz [11:14] that's this one [11:15] AnAnt: that bug is less than six months old [11:15] tjaalton: oh, yes I meant that I filed it in 2007, sorry [11:25] tjaalton: so, is there anyone looking at that bug or not ? [11:30] Good morning peeps [11:30] AnAnt: don't know, I'm not :) [11:34] Morning BenC [11:40] BenC: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/27726 [11:40] morning [11:43] amitk: that rocks! [11:43] yay for intrepid not needing us to carry that patch around any more [11:45] that patch is a bugger, see discussions with hch rzr [11:45] and seens when does ubuntu ever care about upstream quality of a patch rzr :P [11:46] Len's suggestions for fixes are a good idea too === rzr is now known as rZr [11:56] BenC: regarding bug #146151 , I suspect that the problem is actually connected to apic [11:56] Launchpad bug 146151 in linux-source-2.6.24 "pcspkr module causes hangup on HP Pavilion dv6391 when system beeps" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/146151 [11:57] * BenC wonders why things are assigned to linux-source-2.6.24 [11:57] that src doesn't even exist [11:57] BenC: what should it be assigned to then ? [11:57] linux, like it already is [11:58] the linux-source-2.6.24 target is invalid [11:58] ok === Traxer is now known as Traxer|on === Traxer|on is now known as Traxer [12:02] AnAnt: hmm...pcspkr being loaded isn't terribly uncommon...what is uncommon is that the system beep uses pcspkr instead of your built-in audio [12:03] BenC: well, I don't mind that the system beep uses pcspkr, since my laptop seems to have a PC speaker somehow [12:03] AnAnt: It's not a matter of you minding, it's that it shouldn't by design :) [12:04] BenC: the problem is that if I boot without 'noapic' this pcspkr causes a freeze when used [12:05] AnAnt: Ok, that sounds like a completely different issue then...can you pastebin /proc/interrupts (when booted without noacpi)? [12:05] BenC: sure, I'll have to reboot though [12:06] BenC: anything else ? [12:06] BenC: I've got a new l-r-m ready with fglrx 8-3, should it need some FFE handling? [12:07] fixes at least two bugs from the list [12:07] tjaalton: No, go ahead and upload [12:07] BenC: thanks, will do [12:07] tjaalton: thanks [12:07] tjaalton: just make sure it is well tested because it will be in beta :) [12:08] BenC: rebooting... [12:08] BenC: people have tried it and confirmed that those bugs are fixed, but surely it'll have some issues still (as always) :) [12:13] BenC: I booted without noapic, here's /proc/interrupts: http://pastebin.com/m71747744 [12:15] AnAnt: nothing jumps out...I'd suggest trying some of the acpi debug stuff that can be found on the wiki [12:16] BenC: what wiki ? [12:17] wiki.ubuntu.com of course :) [12:17] acpi debug or apic debug ? [12:18] BenC: acpi debug or apic debug ? [12:19] might as well check both [12:20] I can't find anything about apic debug [12:23] AnAnt: you could boot with apic=debug and pastebin that dmesg output [12:23] AnAnt: also (separately) you could try booting with nolapic and see if just that fixes the problem [12:25] ok [12:34] BenC: dmesg output when booting with apic=debug : http://pastebin.com/m75254cb [12:34] BenC: when I use nolapic, Xorg doesn't work (I use an nvidia-glx-new) [12:39] BenC: sorry, laptop crashed [12:39] BenC: I booted now with noapic to avoid that [12:49] BenC: did I miss anything ? [13:14] does Ubuntu have any intention of using POSIX Filesystem Capbilities [13:15] since it's a now mainline feature and can reduce the amount of applications needing root durastically... it only seems logical to have it set up by default [13:16] yet: [13:16] mhare@inspire:~$ cat /boot/config-2.6.24-12-generic | grep FILE_CAPABILITIES [13:16] # CONFIG_SECURITY_FILE_CAPABILITIES is not set === BenC changed the topic of #ubuntu-kernel to: Ubuntu kernel development discussion ONLY | Kernel Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam | Latest kernel upload: 2.6.24-12.21 | Latest news: 2.6.24 Release in Hardy | Next meeting: Mar 11, 17:00 UTC | Kernel Team machine: http://kernel.ubuntu.com [13:28] NthDegree: that's a better question for the security team [13:28] BenC: ah.. #ubuntu-security i'm guessing right? [13:29] yeah [13:29] btw if I managed to get it to compile as a module could I theoretically compile it from the Ubuntu source and load it into an Ubuntu-packaged kernel? [13:29] as in so that I can have the nice supported Ubuntu kernel but have the extra feature still [13:29] security caps can't be modules anymore, IIRC [13:30] oh yeah... that's why Dazuko is having problems [13:30] forgot about that :$ [13:31] BenC: thanks =] [13:31] np === kylem_ is now known as kylem [14:28] BenC: so what else should I do ? === soren is now known as soren_not_joking === soren_not_joking is now known as soren_joking === soren_joking is now known as soren === \sh is now known as \sh_away === Traxer is now known as Traxer|on === Traxer|on is now known as Traxer === cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson === asac_ is now known as asac [20:11] hello, can anybody help me with the following: when i attach to process via ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS,...) the process i attached to hangs up completely [20:12] i have following options set: int options = PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK | PTRACE_O_TRACEVFORK | PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC | PTRACE_O_TRACECLONE | PTRACE_O_TRACEVFORKDONE ; [20:12] when i exit my tracer program, the process i attached to resumes normal operation.... === \sh_away is now known as \sh === smb is now known as smb_away === \sh is now known as \sh_away [22:43] hello [22:46] someone here?
