| laga | so, i just send the patches as attachments to the list? | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| smb_tp | laga, could it be that patch 1/6 is missing? | 01:23 |
| laga | it's stuck in moderation | 01:23 |
| laga | i forgot to add it, then sent another mail which is stuck now | 01:23 |
| laga | 5/6 has a wrong subject line - it's past 2am here :) | 01:23 |
| laga | G'night | 01:23 |
| smb_tp | laga, ah ok. yeah I figured that out. Und auch die Uhrzeit. ;-) | 01:24 |
| abaqueiro | hello, I have this problem: I installed Ubuntu Server for sparc, I have 2 disk (hda, hdd) both with four partitions, the partitions 1º are only unused 8 Mb partitions, the partitions 2º are about 512 Mb, and I created a Raid1 device for the swap, the partitions 4º about 19Gb in both disk are for a RAID1 device, wich contain a ext3 filesystem (including /boot), ubuntu instalation was ok, until the instalation of silo, where it says there was an | 05:49 |

| * BenC likes the new ABI blacklisting | 15:31 | |
| BenC | I can't remember the last time we've been able to do 4 mid-development kernel uploads without bumping the ABI | 15:31 |
| === _fs is now known as fs | ||
| laga | BenC: have you seen the aufs patch? ;) | 17:06 |
| BenC | laga: Yeah, I'll review it over the weekend | 17:08 |
| BenC | laga: thanks...Have you tested that it actually works? | 17:08 |
| laga | yes. | 17:09 |
| laga | not on a live disk, but it boots my diskless client | 17:09 |
| laga | it looks like i'm not supposed to set config options to "n", they need to be undefined instead. i'll send another patch to fix that. | 17:10 |
| BenC | laga: to make it easy, run "debian/rules updateconfigs" | 17:13 |
| BenC | that's what I'll end up doing afterwards anyway | 17:13 |
| adamwood | Hi, I just attached a patch to launchpad bug #242448, I hope it's helpful | 18:40 |
| rtg | kirkland: '<adamwood> Hi, I just attached a patch to launchpad bug #242448, I hope it's helpful' | 18:56 |
| kirkland | rtg: adamwood: hiya, let me reboot ... messages here are logged by my proxy | 18:56 |
| kirkland | adamwood: hi, do you have a kernel built that I can try? | 19:02 |
| kirkland | rtg: or perhaps you have one? | 19:02 |
| adamwood | kirkland:Hi, I have a 2.6.24-21-generic .deb if you want it | 19:02 |
| rtg | kirkland: no, I was just looking at his patch. part of it at least is already in Hardy, so I'm not sure what he's got for sure. | 19:03 |
| kirkland | adamwood: please | 19:03 |
| adamwood | kirkland:give me a min to upload it somewhere | 19:03 |
| kirkland | adamwood: which arch? | 19:04 |
| kirkland | adamwood: I'm going to install a new kvm | 19:04 |
| adamwood | i386 | 19:04 |
| kirkland | k | 19:04 |
| rtg | adamwood: I'm totally confused by your explanation in the bug report. you are referencing commits that are already in Hardy. How did you assemble your patch? | 19:06 |
| adamwood | rtg:the commits are from around the 2.6.25-rc3 tag so they're not part of the Ubuntu- tags as far as I could tell. | 19:07 |
| rtg | adamwood: they are from the Hardy tree. How can they be 2.5.25-rc3? | 19:08 |
| adamwood | rtg:something that confused me too, but running git tag -l on the hardy tree lists a lot of extra tags I was surprised to see. | 19:09 |
| rtg | hmm, I wonder if someone pushed all of their fetch info from upstream. | 19:10 |
| adamwood | rtg:I first downloaded the ubunut-hardy tree a couple of days ago so I don't really know, I just muddled through ;-) | 19:10 |
| ogasawara | adamwood: I'm seeing the same one freshly cloned ubuntu-hardy trees | 19:15 |
| ogasawara | s/one/on/ | 19:15 |
| adamwood | ogasawara:I hope that means I'm looking a little less stupid ;-) | 19:15 |
| rtg | adamwood, ogasawara: lemme see if I can clean things up. the LP message makes more sense. | 19:15 |
| ogasawara | adamwood: heh, I thought I was going crazy for a while | 19:16 |
| adamwood | kirkland: http://www.xephi.co.uk/files/linux-image-2.6.24-21-generic_2.6.24-21.41_i386.deb | 19:18 |
| adamwood | rtg:sorry if I've given you some extra work there, i just assumed the full tree was supposed to be included | 19:19 |
| rtg | adamwood: t'aint your fault. | 19:21 |
| smb_tp | rtg, ogasawara, adamwood: the one could have been me when I pushed the re-worked head | 19:22 |
| rtg | adamwood: for future reference, the preferred way to backport a patch is to 'git cherry-pick', then resolve conflicts, etc. That way you preserve the provenance of the upstream patch. | 19:25 |
| adamwood | rtg: thanks, I thought something like that which is why I linked to the sources, but I doubt applying the second patch I listed would be a good idea. | 19:26 |
| rtg | adamwood: you're right about the second one. | 19:26 |
| rtg | smb_tp: assume the Hardy repo is offline for a bit. | 19:28 |
| adamwood | rtg: there's only a 1 line change of any use in it anyway. Hence my patch just to keep things simple even though I knew it wasn't the best way to handle it | 19:28 |
| kirkland | adamwood: you don't happen to have an amd64 deb, do you? | 19:34 |
| adamwood | kirkland: not ready made but I could probably build one tomorrow | 19:35 |
| kirkland | adamwood: okay, let me get a fresh vm | 19:36 |
| adamwood | kirkland: I'll be going afk shortly (it's been a long day ;) ) but it can't be too hard to find my e-mail address on launchpad if you need me to build a different arch | 19:38 |
| kirkland | adamwood: okay, thanks | 19:38 |
| kirkland | adamwood: i'll update the bug status | 19:38 |
| adamwood | kirkland: let's hope i'm not wrong then | 19:39 |
| * adamwood is back | 19:41 | |
| soreiser | hi there, i would like to know why "all_generic_ide" is not working with hardy. i really need it to make my old pc working. thanks | 21:37 |
| Tallken | soreiser: it works, at least worked with server version | 21:38 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: what's the error you're getting? | 21:38 |
| alex_joni | on some systems I used to use all_generic_ide, but then switched to irqpoll to make them work | 21:38 |
| Tallken | soreiser: have you tried -- generic.all_generic_ide=1 | 21:39 |
| Tallken | ? | 21:39 |
| soreiser | Tallken, alex_joni just tried with ubuntu-server and ubuntu (8.04) and simply it does not work (i can see many I/O errors from dmesg loading). it works on xubuntu 7.10 instead :-/ | 21:39 |
| soreiser | Tallken no, should i try that too? | 21:39 |
| Tallken | why not? | 21:39 |
| Tallken | soreiser: add "generic.all_generic_ide=1" and hope for the best | 21:40 |
| soreiser | Tallken, alex_joni i forget to say that it does not work only with livecd/install cd | 21:40 |
| soreiser | on grub it works | 21:40 |
| Tallken | ah | 21:40 |
| Tallken | don't know then :/ | 21:41 |
| soreiser | ah and "generic.all_generic_ide=1" if i dont mistake i have already tried also this, some time ago | 21:41 |
| Tallken | the livecd boot system acts weird now and then | 21:41 |
| soreiser | also all_generic_ide=1 <-- about this i'm sure | 21:41 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: try the irqpoll option too | 21:41 |
| alex_joni | can't hurt | 21:41 |
| soreiser | alex_joni does is serves to my ide-problem? :-/ 'cause i have an old motherboard with the 34gb limit block and i need to get rid of it (all_generic_ide does :)) | 21:43 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: probably not | 21:44 |
| soreiser | the problemTallken how can i install hardy-server on my old pc if that parameter not woks? is there any workaround? | 21:44 |
| soreiser | alex_joni irqpool has to do with hdd too? 'cause that pc is now down and i wuold like to be sure that it works to dont wait half hour for it to wake up uselessly ;) | 21:45 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: I was bitten by this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/206635 | 21:45 |
| soreiser | this is what i get if all_generic_ide is not added: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/6454122/A%3A%5Cdmesg.txt | 21:47 |
| soreiser | see under, all those I/O errors | 21:48 |
| soreiser | alex_joni | 21:48 |
| soreiser | alex_joni excuse me, have you read when i wrote the problem is only for the livecd? have you any idea/workaruond? | 21:49 |
| soreiser | ah, i forgot: on xubuntu 7.10 the parameter worked, on ubuntu 7.10 did not (livecd both i mean) what do you think about? | 21:50 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: I would still try to add irqpoll and all_generic_ide as boot params for the LiveCD | 21:50 |
| soreiser | alex_joni both? | 21:51 |
| soreiser | or just irqpool? | 21:51 |
| soreiser | *poll | 21:51 |
| alex_joni | yes.. did you read the bug link I pasted? | 21:51 |
| alex_joni | both | 21:51 |
| soreiser | sorry no i didn't read it so much, 'cause i wanted to search the laucnhpad report i already did sorry ;) ok i'll try it tomorrow then if i'll got troubles i will return here :) | 21:53 |
| soreiser | ah alex_joni: <soreiser> ah, i forgot: on xubuntu 7.10 the parameter worked, on ubuntu 7.10 did not (livecd both i mean) what do you think about? <-- | 21:54 |
| alex_joni | soreiser: not familiar with xubuntu's livecd | 21:55 |
| alex_joni | and neither with ubuntu's 7.10 | 21:55 |
| soreiser | alex_joni okey thank you anyway i'll try it tomorrow thanks again :) | 21:57 |
| alex_joni | np.. | 22:00 |
| soreiser | ;) | 22:01 |
| rtg | kirkland: when it is done building http://ppa.launchpad.net/timg-tpi/ubuntu will have a kernel with the ecryptfs patch from upstream e4465fdaeb3f7b5ef47f389d3eac76db79ff20d8 | 22:14 |
| kirkland | rtg: awesome, i have had a hell of a time getting an i386 vm up and running | 22:15 |
| rtg | kirkland: I'm outta here a bike ride. have a good weekend. | 22:15 |
| kirkland | rtg: nice! | 22:15 |
| kirkland | rtg: i bought a road bike yesterday | 22:16 |
| kirkland | rtg: Canondale | 22:16 |
| rtg | mine's a canondale too, but its a 15 year old F700 mountain bike. still works good. | 22:16 |
| rtg | the thing I like about mountain biking is that there are no cars to run me over. | 22:17 |
| kirkland | rtg: i hear ya, this thing still scares me shitless | 22:17 |
| rtg | kirkland: like when you forget to unclip at a stop light? | 22:18 |
| kirkland | rtg: yeah, and doing 50mph down hill (well, i haven't done that yet) | 22:18 |
| kirkland | rtg: but it will scare me | 22:18 |
| rtg | kirkland: yeah, well be careful. gotta go. | 22:19 |
| godlygeek | can anyone here explain to me how key presses on the keyboard get mapped to keycodes by the kernel? | 22:45 |
| mjg59 | godlygeek: There's a table in drivers/input/atkbd.c | 23:00 |
| mjg59 | godlygeek: There's a table in drivers/input/keyboards/atkbd.c | 23:00 |
| godlygeek | maybe i'm missing something... | 23:05 |
| godlygeek | what's the distinction between keycode and scancode? | 23:06 |
| mjg59 | scancode is what the hardware generates. keycode is what it gets turned into. | 23:06 |
| mjg59 | keycodes are things in /usr/include/linux/input.h | 23:06 |
| godlygeek | ah, ok. i had them flipped in my head... | 23:06 |
| godlygeek | i'm going to try very hard to figure out how to get a sysrq button press on my macbook... | 23:07 |
| godlygeek | because not being able to use magic sysrq is absolutely killing me... i'd love to be able to cleanly unmount my disks when i crash... heh | 23:07 |
| godlygeek | one last thing.. if two key presses generate the same scan code (with showkey -s), this means that they look exactly the same to the kernel, since showkey -s does absolutely no translation... right? | 23:12 |
| mjg59 | They should, yes | 23:13 |
| godlygeek | ok. mac docs say that fn-shift-f11 is printscrn on windoze, but that definitely doesn't do anything different from regular-old f11 here. | 23:13 |
| mjg59 | Oh! USB is different. | 23:14 |
| mjg59 | Entirely different. | 23:14 |
| mjg59 | Showkey will probably lie to you when it comes to the raw scancodes, since there aren't any | 23:14 |
| mjg59 | They're already abstracted by the HID protocol | 23:14 |
| godlygeek | i take it the internal keyboard in mac laptops are USB, then? | 23:14 |
| godlygeek | never knew that. | 23:14 |
| mjg59 | Yup | 23:16 |
| godlygeek | ok. well, pointers to what i should read up on to try to further my goal, then? | 23:16 |
| mjg59 | Not sure. I'm really not sure how the sysrq stuff is implemented, I'm afraid. | 23:17 |
| godlygeek | well, from what i can see, whenever the kernel gets a keycode it checks if it's for SYSRQ, if it's down, whether alt was pressed, etc, and waits for a new keycode for function to do... | 23:17 |
| godlygeek | so, that all makes perfect sense, except that my keyboard never gives it any scan codes that match the keycode for SYSRQ | 23:18 |
| godlygeek | so, it ought to be no different from the general question of "how do i make key XXX send keycode YYY" | 23:18 |
| godlygeek | except that it needs to be done on the lowest level possible, of course. :) | 23:19 |
| chris_goe | does anyone know why CONFIG_MD_RAID10 is not selected in hardy's kernel image? | 23:50 |
