| Grackle | Hi, I have a new driver for a realtek device, and I'd like to add it to the ubuntu repositories. | 00:37 |
|---|---|---|
| Grackle | It's an RTL8187SE. The driver was released (well, procured) yesterday. It's GPL'd. I made some modifications to compile it for the ubuntu hardy kernel | 00:38 |
| Grackle | It now works... so... yeah. | 00:39 |
| Grackle | I've never done any work in a linux distribution development process, much less ubuntu's | 00:39 |
| * Grackle is looking for some help and guidance | 00:39 | |
| TheMuso | Grackle: I think it also wouldn't hurt sending an email to the kernel team mailing list, kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com so your message is seen. | 00:49 |

| stgraber | Looks like my custom dsdt isn't loaded on Intrepid, is it a known issue ? | 11:37 |
| stgraber | /proc/acpi/dsdt doesn't match the one in /etc/initramfs-tools/DSDT.aml | 11:37 |

| noelferreira | to eliminate the keys getting stuck and key repeat bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/124406 - i disabled ACPI in my boot loader. However without ACPI my computer is always changing this brightness level (like every second). So now i can't complete work with or without ACPI. My system is completely unstable. This happens since i upgraded to hardy heron beta. Even if i change Gconf-editor in order not to automaticall | 14:32 |
| noelferreira | y change brigthness level this happens. Please let me now a workaround for this. I used Ubuntu since 'always' and i don't want to change distro now. please let me now a workaround for this. thanks | 14:32 |

| Kano | hi BenC , rtg | 15:41 |
| Kano | rtg: still working on hardy? | 15:41 |
| rtg | Kano: yep | 15:41 |
| Kano | rtg: http://kanotix.com/files/kernel/unused-patches/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-2.6.24.uvcvideo.medion-e1210.patch | 15:42 |
| Kano | thats for hardy | 15:42 |
| Kano | this is the medium variant of the msi wind netbook | 15:42 |
| Kano | for the integrated webcam, needs a similar hack like all other hacks for some cards | 15:42 |
| Kano | [ 4348.883617] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device BisonCam, NB Pro (5986:0141) | 15:43 |
| Kano | when you use it | 15:43 |
| Kano | Medion Akoya mini E1210 is it called | 15:44 |
| Kano | http://www.aldi-sued.de/de/html/offers/2827_7018.htm | 15:45 |
| Kano | boots only with hardy .1 | 15:45 |
| rtg | Kano: how about sending a patch to akpm for the E1210? It should be in the uvc_ids[] array in drivers/media/video/uvc/uvc_driver.c | 15:47 |
| Kano | it is in that array, look at the patch | 15:48 |
| Kano | just an added entry with different id + comment | 15:49 |
| Kano | rtg: did you notice that uvcvideo is in 2.6.26-rc9? | 16:13 |
| rtg | Kano: See previous comment: ' It should be in the uvc_ids[] array in drivers/media/video/uvc/uvc_driver.' | 16:15 |
| rtg | Kano: that is the path in the kernel sources. | 16:15 |
| Kano | rtg: well that patch was for hardy lum | 16:15 |
| rtg | Kano: I realize that, but I also noticed when uvc was included in the main kernel. | 16:16 |
| lamont | rtg: btw, apt-get build-dep linux-source-2.6.26 fails on intrepid/sparc | 16:29 |
| Kano | rtg: do you know when rc9 will be merged? | 16:31 |
| rtg | lamont: whats missing? BenC has been doing the Intrepid stuff lately. | 16:33 |
| lamont | makekerneldump ish | 16:33 |
| * lamont doesn't have the error in front of him atm | 16:33 | |
| rtg | Kano: when BenC gets to it. He was on holiday this weekend. | 16:33 |
| lamont | E: Build-Depends dependency for linux cannot be satisfied because the package makedumpfile cannot be found | 16:34 |
| rtg | lamont: iirc, its waiting on a MIR. | 16:34 |
| Kano | lamont: wow you found that too ;) i had to fetch it from launchpad | 16:34 |
| lamont | rtg: universe is in the list though... | 16:35 |
| rtg | lamont: thats outside my area of expertise. we'll have to get BenC to comment. | 16:38 |
| BenC | lamont: makedumpfile was built on sparc it seems, and moved to main recently | 16:55 |
| BenC | lamont: oh wait, main linux package wont build on sparc anyway | 16:55 |
| BenC | it's not meant to | 16:55 |
| lamont | ah, ok | 16:55 |
| BenC | -rc9 is rebased and pushed | 17:32 |
| Kano | BenC: did you remove ubuntu/uvcvideo? | 17:32 |
| Kano | if not,please do | 17:33 |
| Kano | BenC: can you adopt this patch on your own: http://kanotix.com/files/kernel/unused-patches/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-2.6.24.uvcvideo.medion-e1210.patch | 18:14 |
| Kano | just a different -p option needed | 18:14 |
| Kano | in the right dir | 18:14 |
| BenC | "EE: 4181 symbols changed hash and weren't ignored" | 18:15 |
| BenC | rc8 to rc9...something core in the kernel must have changed | 18:15 |
| rtg | BenC: ABI bump time | 18:15 |
| zul | is it just me or this little weird in the server config file: | 18:46 |
| zul | CONFIG_XEN=y | 18:46 |
| zul | CONFIG_XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=m | 18:46 |
| zul | CONFIG_XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=m | 18:46 |
| BenC | zul: you don't think people would use a xen guest as a server? | 21:33 |
| BenC | well, everything from lum is now in intrepid kernel, with the exception of lirc | 21:34 |
| zul | BenC: no I wasnt expecting it :) | 21:41 |
| Kano | hi, it seems you are adding now extra drivers. do you want to add gspca too and maybe the ralink draft-n drivers (rt2860/rt2870) | 22:02 |
| Kano | gspca should the easy | 22:03 |
| BenC | gspca is already there | 22:09 |
| Kano | hmm, will look again | 22:10 |
| BenC | ubuntu/misc/media/gspcav1/ | 22:10 |
| mkrufky | BenC: did you have to patch au0828 / au8522 / xc5000 ? afaik, there was only 1 xc5000 patch that didnt make it into 2.6.26 | 22:14 |
| BenC | mkrufky: uh...what are those? :) | 22:25 |
| mkrufky | they're in hardy LUM | 22:26 |
| mkrufky | heh | 22:26 |
| mkrufky | if you didnt port them to the intrepid kernel, that's fine //// i'll submit them again when i get around to it | 22:27 |
| mkrufky | BenC: ^^ | 22:27 |
| mkrufky | BenC: so, those three are in the Hardy LUM ubuntu/media/au0828 | 22:27 |
| mkrufky | BenC: and afaik, 2.6.26 will have the same versions, except missing 1 change on the xc5000 | 22:28 |
| BenC | mkrufky: No, they must have showed up after I snapshot lum for intrepid | 22:28 |
| mkrufky | ah, that would explain it | 22:28 |
| mkrufky | so, i would say dont bother with the those three above.... if need be, i can port the missing change, but it shouldnt matter | 22:28 |
| mkrufky | and the other driver i added to LUM, sms1xxx -- that one i would also wait on merging to intrepid. once sms1xxx gets into mainline, i'll send you a pull request | 22:29 |
| Kano | BenC: http://kanotix.com/files/kernel/kernel-update-pack-generic-next/source/2.6.26-uvc_driver-medion-e1210.patch | 22:43 |
| Kano | uvc patch for 2.6.26 and medion webcam | 22:43 |
| Kano | could you please add it | 22:44 |
| mkrufky | Kano: its added already | 22:44 |
| Kano | mkrufky: when? | 22:44 |
| mkrufky | now, seriously..... if you just sent it to uvcvideo, it would have been done by now | 22:44 |
| mkrufky | and you wouldnt have had to ask a thousand times | 22:44 |
| mkrufky | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy-lum.git;a=commitdiff;h=cdca2d54267cf74787b8ff59b20a9c8fcfcca7d0 | 22:45 |
| mkrufky | done | 22:45 |
| Kano | mkrufky: that patch is for intrepid | 22:45 |
| mkrufky | anyway, i am just a developer -- i dont represent ubuntu | 22:45 |
| Kano | of course same patch, just differnt file | 22:45 |
| Kano | BenC: gpsca is not enabled | 23:22 |
| Kano | 100%, just compiled | 23:22 |
| Kano | there is no module gspca | 23:22 |
| tormod | I saw prism2_usb just got back into Intrepid. Can you please update it, as per bug 245026? | 23:32 |
| Kano | tormod: you are the one with the xserver repo, right | 23:36 |
| tormod | Kano: yes | 23:38 |
| Kano | do you package the normal ones too? | 23:39 |
| tormod | no, that would be tjaalton (on #ubuntu-x) | 23:40 |
| Kano | BenC: do you want some more fimeware to add? | 23:44 |
| Kano | http://machts.net/Cinergy_HT_USB_XE/xc3028-v27.fw | 23:44 |
| Kano | http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-usb-dtt200u-01.fw | 23:44 |
| Kano | these are definitely missing | 23:44 |
| mkrufky | Kano: when you locate the distribution license for the xceive firmware, please send me a copy | 23:46 |
| Kano | no idea where to find, maybe ask terratec | 23:51 |
