| Q-FUNK | I started getting this since upgrading to Hardy, on one particular piece of hardware. | 17:00 |
| Q-FUNK | related to bug #241307 on LP | 17:01 |
| Q-FUNK | I have no idea how to decode that ksoops message or how to solve it. | 17:02 |
| Q-FUNK | would anybody know? | 17:02 |
| mjg59 | Q-FUNK: Having the previous lines would help a great deal | 17:05 |
| mjg59 | But I'd guess bad hardware | 17:06 |
| Q-FUNK | mjg59: I doubt that. reverting to the gutsy kernel fixes it. | 17:07 |
| mjg59 | Hm | 17:07 |
| mjg59 | Well, it really needs more of the backtrace | 17:07 |
| Q-FUNK | mjg59: I welcome instructions on how to get that | 17:08 |
| Q-FUNK | right now, the hardware freezes right at that point. | 17:08 |
| mjg59 | Boot in a higher resolution? | 17:08 |
| Q-FUNK | hm. that, I can try. just a sec. | 17:09 |
| Q-FUNK | mjg59: no can do, it seems. this doesn't have a normal bios. it boots in plain VGA by defualt. | 17:30 |
| mjg59 | Pass vga= to the kernel? | 17:30 |
| Q-FUNK | it seems thta it oopses before it gets around parsing that | 17:31 |
| Q-FUNK | the only bit that remains understandable to me is that it's preciselt related to boot options. | 17:32 |
| mjg59 | If it oopsed before it got that far you wouldn't get an oops | 17:33 |
| Q-FUNK | hm | 17:37 |
| Q-FUNK | it says something there about some unknown boot option. what is it? | 17:38 |
| mjg59 | Nothing | 17:39 |
| mjg59 | It just usually ends up at the bottom of a backtrace | 17:40 |
| JanC | can't you use a serial link to debug such things (to get all the messages)? | 17:44 |
| Q-FUNK | no serial port here | 17:53 |

| pottytheshitter | I ask that the kernel devs add ext4 for intrepid | 21:52 |
| === pottytheshitter is now known as kernelmode | ||
| kernelmode | wow lazy kernel devolpers | 22:00 |
| JanC | hint: like most other people the kernel developers are not paid to work during the weekend | 22:06 |
| JanC | and ext4 is still experimental & considered unstable AFAIK | 22:07 |
| kernelmode | so other big distros include it | 22:07 |
| JanC | that's their responsibility | 22:10 |
| kernelmode | Guess what if you ubuntu-devs consider ext4 unstable you should really remove reiserfs | 22:11 |
| JanC | I think Ubuntu doesn't want to take the risk that people who don't know that it is still unstable loose data after an upgrade... | 22:11 |
| JanC | reiserfs has a stable on-disk format, I think ext4 doesn't have that yet? | 22:12 |
| kernelmode | ahh i see the kernel devs dont want to make there kernel version even more unstable | 22:15 |
