[09:52] <Kano> hi, why is the intrepid kernel for 686 only? a k6-2 would be working too when you use i586 or i586mmx
[14:12] <sven-tek> Hello kernel developers. Is there a chance to enable CONFIG_HID_FF (Force Feedback support) and drivers? Until now it is not set, i guess its not enabled because its in experimental state. But from my point of view it should be safe enough. I posted a bug report for this feature request recently, but there was no feedback at all.
[19:04] <mkrufky> Is Steve Langasek in here?
[19:06] <rtg> mkrufky: he is in London right now, probably off drinking beer by now.
[19:07] <mkrufky> thanks, rtg
[19:07] <mkrufky> i found him in #ubuntu-devel
[21:57] <mkrufky> what is the policy for driver submission for the intrepid kernel?
[21:57] <mkrufky> i have 1 small patch against xc5000 (patch will be in 2.6.27 and it applies cleanly against intrepid 2.6.26)
[21:58] <mkrufky> and i have to add the sms1xxx driver to intrepid as well.  sms1xxx will be included with 2.6.27
[21:58] <mkrufky> the current sms1xxx has some additional trivial cleanups.  for now, doesnt really pay to backport those into hardy lum
[22:00] <mkrufky> eh, i'll push them to my git tree and issue a pull request, but i'd like to know when is the deadline
[22:00] <mkrufky> (i'd prefer to wait for the last minute, in case sms1xxx gets any additional fixes in the linux-next tree before actual merge to 2.6.27)
