hwildedo the kernel wireless modules attempt to associate to any open network on boot?01:12
hwildecoworker observed it on the client  "I was running iwconfig every second. It shows the free wifi at that point, but by the time everything is loaded we are on the correct ssid. "01:12

baron1984I've uncovered a ploy between Foxconn and Microsoft02:27
baron1984Microsoft has apparently gotten Foxconn to write bad DSDT tables just to pass to Linux02:27
baron1984while Windows gets the valid ones02:27
baron1984when I override the DSDT with my custom version, it fixes most ACPI related problems02:28
baron1984and I think kernel 2.6.26+ my DSDT table would fix it completely02:28
hwildeI have crappi ACPI problems02:28
hwildehow do you get a custom version02:29
baron1984they have their BIOS set to pass Linux a bogus DSDT table, I changed it so it passes Linux the same one it gives Windows XP/Vista02:29
baron1984you have to pull your DSDT table, disassemble it, rewrite sections of it yourself02:30
hwildeok how02:30
hwildegimme02:30
baron1984recompile it, and make a boot image set to use that02:30
hwildedo you have any links or resources confirming any of this02:30
baron1984it varies depending on your BIOS02:30
baron1984I can't just give you mine02:30
hwildehow would I find mine hten02:32
hwilde"pull your DSDT table"    how 02:32
hwildeand how does the bios know if its linux or windows02:35
hwildesounds bogus02:35
baron1984hwilde: The tables are passed to the OS02:59
baron1984which runs it as a program02:59
baron1984it's in assembler language and OS independent03:00
baron1984it then initializes it's ACPI implementation based on what the BIOS gave it03:00

baron1984`are there currently many known, non-acpi related problems, regarding a hang on rebooting right after the "Will Now Reboot" message?08:17
baron1984`this seems to affect hardy and intrepid, but only after you have used suspend in that session08:17

johanbrrtg: You marked bug #183033 as "fix committed" for Intrepid. Are you sure that's right? I couldn't find the patch in the git tree, and it's definitely not in 2.6.26-4.11-generic.15:09
elmo /go soren 15:10
sorenelmo: ?15:11
elmosoren: nothing, I wasn't talking to you - (mis)leading space and tab completion gone mad (nick vs. channel)15:12
sorenelmo: Oh :)15:12
rtgjohanbr: looks to me like its in Intrepid, at least the patch that was attached by Mario is in Intrepid.15:17
johanbrrtg: Really? 2.6.26-4.11-generic shows the same "one core stuck at max frequency after resume" behaviour that the early hardy kernels had.15:18
rtgjohanbr: look at the code. as far as I can tell, that patch has been applied.15:20
johanbrrtg: I don't have a complete dev environment on the machine I'm using right now, but I don't see the patch when browsing the git logs. And if it's there, it doesn't seem to have any effect. Anyway, I'll have a closer look over the weekend.15:31
johanbrrtg: I just had a look and I don't think the patch has been applied.16:22
johanbrI'm comparing http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git;a=commitdiff;h=8a8edfd73da81c311e15ffba945a7b8eeb7f992f (the patch) with http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git;a=blob;f=drivers/acpi/executer/exconfig.c;h=39d7421905840f1437c5408d2e4fe47e31f8b68d;hb=HEAD16:23
johanbrIf you look at the latter link around line 324, it's pretty clear that the patch is not there.16:25
rtgjohanbr: hmm, it appears that you are correct. I'll see about getting this one upstream.16:31
rtgjohnin the meantime I'll get it applied to Intrepid.16:31
rtgjohanbr: damn tab completion.16:32
johanbrrtg: Great. Thank you.16:33
johanbrrtg: Oh, and there's an upstream bug at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1073417:03

joumetalCould patches in bug 249135 be related to bug 251344?22:06
joumetallatest -generic and -rt kernels in hardy are affected. Any intrepid kernel is not affected.22:08
joumetalseems that many users are willing to help but they have no ideas but add me too comments.22:09
rtgjoumetal: looks like a possibility. I'll contact the author to see what he thinks.22:29
