_rubenBenC: the "4g/6g" issue that i have a box with 6G in it, of which only 4G is being seen (dual 1st gen opteron running 64bits gutsy)07:07
=== doko_ is now known as doko
Nafallo_ruben: just out of curiosity, how many banks and CPU-slots does that machine have? what machine is it?09:52
_rubenNafallo: 2 cpu sockets, 4 dimm slots (2 banks) per cpu socket .. HP DL145 G1 .. i removed 2G (making it 'symetric' again) because after upgrading to hardy it gave me kernel panics at boot up .. im gonna try with 8G later on10:25
Nafallohm. k.10:27
_ruben2 cpus and 2gb (2x1gb in one bank) did seem to work .. so the 'asymmetric-ness' shouldnt be a prob10:29
* _ruben heads to the basement to temporarily steal another 2G kit from another server10:32
=== ln-_ is now known as ln-
_ruben8G seems to work fine .. reinstalling gutsy 11:02

saispono one have error when building ubuntu-hardy-lum with openvz headers ?15:04
sorenBenC: Er... Did I send that virtual kernel module list thing to you yet, or did I just dream that I did? Like earlier today or something?16:08
BenCsoren: you dreamed it I believe :)16:08
sorenDang.16:08
sorenmutt apparantly dreamed it, too. I sent it to benc@ubuntu.com rather than the kernel-team mailing list, though.16:10
BenCah, heh16:10
BenCnot sure benc@ works...it would be bcollins or ben.collins16:10
sorenAh.16:10
BenC_ruben: If you are using a 32-bit generic kernel, you wont see past 4G16:11
BenC_ruben: either use 32-bit server kernel, or a 64-bit install16:11
soren_ruben: I asked _ruben about that yesterday, and he said he was running the amd64  server kernel.16:12
_rubenBenC: upgrading to 8GB 'fixed' it16:13
_rubenmust be some flakey hardware thing16:13
sorensounds like fun :)16:14
_rubensoren: virtual kernel module list .. ehh .. oh .. my request for the driver to be included?16:14
_rubenHP DL145 G1 is ancient stuff ;)16:14
soren_ruben: No, that's completely unrelated.16:14
_rubensoren: doh .. for some reason i thought you addressed it to me16:14
* _ruben goes out to buy glasses16:14
soren_ruben: Two seperate, but interwoven conversations. IRC is fun :)16:15
_rubenadd some interwoven braincells and double the fun :)16:15
sorenBenC: Do you want me to resend to you or the mailing list?16:15
_rubenand regarding my tulip driver request (-virtual kernel), that probably aint happen before intrepid i guess, if ever? ;)16:17
sorenIt'll be in Intrepid, at least.16:18
sorenIt's not out of the question to add it to Hardy in an SRU, is it? BenC?16:18
_rubensoren: ic16:19
amitksoren: let's make it three. did you have a chance to look at my git tree?16:19
sorenamitk: Yes. I'm not going to use it. :)16:20
sorenamitk: BenC would rather go in an entirely different direction.16:20
rtgsoren: its possible to enable tulip for the virtual flavours16:20
sorenrtg: ok, cool. I think we should, then. Apparantly, that's what Microsoft's virtualisation thingie emulates.16:21
rtgsoren: for just the -virtual flavour, correct?16:22
rtgI thinks its already enabled for others.16:22
_rubenrtg: it is, for -server atleast that i know16:22
_rubenhavent tested any other flavours16:23
_rubenshould look into which hardware hyper-v's accelerated nic uses .. its the legacy nic that uses the tulip driver16:24
_rubenthe accelerated one is some 10Gbps thingie16:24
amitksoren: and what is this other direction? I don't want to end up doing something just for lpia16:24
sorenamitk: He wants to take the server build and just "cherry pick" the modules from that and stitch it together to form a new .deb.16:26
amitksoren: hmm. That isnt useful for lpia16:28
sorenamitk: No, not at all.16:29
sorenI imagine, though, that your lpia work will be useful for all the other ports.16:29
mkrufkywhen do i need to submit drivers for intrepid?  16:30
mkrufkyer, i mean... "by when do i ..."16:30
mkrufkyi ask, because i am waiting for the last moment -- i'd prefer to send in the driver AFTER the kernel janitors do their cleanups in the -rc phase16:32
amitkmkrufky: beta freeze is 25th Sept: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseSchedule16:33
mkrufkyoh, then i have time... :-)   thanks, amitk16:33
amitkmkrufky: there is _never_ enough time :)16:33
mkrufky;-)16:34
rtgsoren: bug #25085716:45
sorenrtg: Oh, cool. Thanks. It's for HyperV, though, but apart from that..16:47
rtgsoren: oh well, no one else knows the difference :)16:47
sorenHeh :)16:48

BenCOk....kernel IRC meeting...17:02
BenCamitk, rtg, smb_tp: You guys awake and lucid?17:02
rtghuh? what?17:03
smb_tppartially17:03
BenCI don't have many topics for a meeting other than "Go fix bugs"17:04
smb_tpMe neither17:04
amitkBenC: ack17:04
BenCAnyone have anything they want announce, discuss, complain about?17:05
BenCamitk: wasn't the same without you and cking at the sprint last week...we'll all have to make up for it at UDS17:06
rtgBenC: maybe the plumber's conf instead of UDS17:07
BenCah, good idea17:07
kylemBenC, why are you guys doing UDS so late this year?17:08
=== mdomsch is now known as mdomsch_YOW
BenCkylem: to avoid thanksgiving17:09
rtgkylem: when Jane says jump, we all ask "Where should I land?"17:09
kylemBenC, oh right, your allhands thing.17:09
amitkBenC: my feelings exactly...17:09
BenCkylem: no allhands this year...I think it was put off until May after UDS17:10
kylemah.17:10
* BenC is glad they avoided thanksgiving17:10
BenCwould have killed attendance in the US...and since we will be in the US, that's pretty important :)17:10
kylemwild turkey and a bucket of kfc?17:11
amitkkylem: still based in Ottawa?17:11
kylemamitk, aye. how goes dude?17:11
BenCkylem: you should make UDS...call it "public relations" :)17:12
amitkkylem: good going. Perhaps you'll run into some of our folks at OLS this week.17:12
kylemBenC, maybe... escaping snow for mountain view is tempting.17:12
kylemamitk, yeah, tony espy is here at least.17:12
rtgkylem: track down Colin King and Stefan Bader and introduce yourself.17:13
amitkkylem: you saw him at the wireless mini-summit then?17:13
kylemi'm here now, yeah.17:13
* BenC loves how this digressed into a kylem reunion :)17:14
smb_tpwill be there this evening. any pub to meet. :)17:14
kylemsorry. ;-)17:15
BenCkylem: it's ok, gave us something to talk about :)17:16
* BenC has nothing to talk about and needs lunch now17:18
smb_tpOk, enjoy. :)17:18
* amitk needs dinner. So long folks...17:18
tormodhi, should l-u-m bugs now be filed against "linux" ? I don't see any l-u-m-2.6.26 on launchpad.19:27
rtgtormod: yep, LUM was sucked back into the Intrepid kernel package.19:29
tormodso we should move all l-u-m-2.6.24 bugs to "linux" ?19:30
tormodall that applies in Intrepid, that is19:30
tormodrtg, now that I've got you here :)  what about the prism2_usb/linux-wlan-ng updates?19:31
rtgactually, I'm surprised ogasawara hasn't already done that.19:31
rtgtormod: it was unclear if I needed to do more. it functions for Intrepid, correct?19:32
tormodrtg, the prism2/p80211 just got back into the kernel, but they are from February and needs updating.19:32
ogasawarartg, tormod: moving lum bugs to linux is on my todo list19:32
rtgtormod: I deal with too many versions of the kernel. Which one are you referring to?19:33
tormodrtg, and the linux-wlan-ng 0.2.9 has a pending merge.19:33
tormodthe normal intrepid kernel?19:34
rtgIntrepid is 2.6.2619:34
tormodrtg, yes19:34
rtgtormod: so there are 2 issues? 1) the wireless drivers in kernel need updating, 2) user space needs an update. correct?19:35
tormodrtg correct!19:35
tormodbugs 192772 and 245026 19:36
rtgtormod: for the kernel drivers, please post a patch to the kernel team mailing list. kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com, and either Ben or myself will pick it up.19:36
tormodrtg, last time you just pulled down from upstream19:37
* tormod just reassigned 245026 to "linux"19:38
tormodrtg as described in BOM19:38
rtgtormod: one moment. spousal interrupt.19:39
tormodNMI19:40
alex_joniheh19:41
rtgtormod: Intrepid is a little different. have the prism2/p80211 drivers been submitted during the 2.6.27 merge window?19:46
rtgIntrepid is different in that we are not yet backporting upstream wireless.19:47
tormodI am not sure if I understand. But prism2/p80211 is not part of the linux kernel.19:47
rtgtormod: right. I forgot that.19:49
rtgtormod: it looks like BenC copied the  prism2/p80211 Hardy LUM drivers into the Intrepid kernel package at ubuntu/misc/wireless. It would help me out if you could submit patches against the Intrepid package that updates those drivers.19:53
tormodrtg, hmm I don't have a kernel tree here to diff against.19:56
tormodhd space issue. can I get a subtree from git?19:57
rtgtormod: not as far as I know19:57
tormodhow much space does the whole git tree need?20:01
rtgrtg@dearborn:/usr3/ubuntu$ du -sh ubuntu-intrepid20:03
rtg634Mubuntu-intrepid20:03
rtgseems like a lot.20:03
tormodcan you give a tarball of the u/m/wireless tree?20:04
tormodit seems like BenC rearranged the directory structure quite a bit...20:06
_rubeni guess a 'bug' like this (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10424), cant be easily worked around other than patching the kernel right? :/20:31
infinityrtg: Does that new -proposed kernel include the hppa fix?20:34
rtginfinity: ought to.20:35
rtg_ruben: needs kernel source code change to fix SATA20:35
infinityrtg: Mmmkay.20:35
rtginfinity: has it actually built yet?20:35
infinityNope, but the hppa buildds were blocked over the weekend.  Let me smack it.20:36
_rubenrtg: guess i'll work around it hardware wise then ;)20:40
