=== asac_ is now known as asac [08:17] hi! is the new hso-driver included in the intrepid kernels? [08:17] http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/919938?page=last [09:01] Wellark: the hso-driver is not in the current intrepid kernel source [09:02] cking: is it going to be included? [09:03] I'm working on network-manager and there are devices that need that driver [09:04] Wellark: we are still contemplating if Ubuntu will carry 2.6.27 for intrepid. If that happens, hso is already there. [09:04] currently we are at 2.6.26, but we have a 2.6.27-rc tree called ubuntu-next available for testing if you need. [09:04] but if you decide to stick with .26 will the hso-driver be included? [09:05] or is it too early to tell? [09:05] Wellark: it could be backported if it is a single driver. Wait another week to check if we make the move (probably will). Otherwise ping us again. [09:08] ok. great! [09:23] does ubuntu-next work with DKMS/nvidia? [09:29] apparently it should [09:41] wow, my laptop stays suspended with .27-rc3 [09:41] unlike with .26 where it resumes right away [09:52] tjaalton: looks like we have another supported for 2.6.27 :) [09:53] *supporter [09:56] what's the main concern about .27? not enough testing? [10:03] Wellark: that fact that .27 will probably get released _very_ close to our freeze [10:05] just send Linus an email.. :P [10:16] :D [11:37] amitk: indeed :) [13:15] Will the kernel for intrepid be .27 or .26 ? [13:15] <_ruben> not decided yet [13:17] Aha. When is this decision due? [13:19] <_ruben> within a week i think [13:19] Ok. Thanks :) [13:24] just add it to topic already :) [13:35] :> [13:48] hello [13:48] anyone knows something if similar to this: http://www.bitwizard.nl/remote_devices/ is being worked on nowadays? :P [13:49] for webcams specifically [13:50] uhm I should probably better ask in ##kernel [14:52] So far I have not seen one Nay on 2.6.27 for intrepid === BenC changed the topic of #ubuntu-kernel to: Ubuntu kernel development discussion ONLY | Kernel Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam | Latest kernel upload: 2.6.26-5.14 (based on 2.6.26 final) | Latest news: Possibly moving to 2.6.27 kernel for Intrepid/8.10. Decision within a week. | Next meeting: Aug 19, 16:00 UTC | Kernel Team machine: http://kernel.ubuntu.com [14:57] rtg: those xen patches are targeted for 2.6.27 assuming that it goes into intrepid [14:57] BenC: only one? [14:57] zul: I've seen none [14:58] BenC: well, you know I'm in favor 'cause I'm thinking about how to get 2.6.27 into Hardy. [14:59] BenC: did you have a change to review aufs? [14:59] While I am not so sure about 2.6.27 in Hardy, I think it a good ideao for Intrepid [14:59] laga: Yeah, going to sync it [14:59] BenC: using my patch or from upstream? [15:00] rtg: it would make life so much easier for somethings [15:00] laga: yours [15:00] yay [15:00] I guess now's a good time to install 2.6.27 on my laptop [15:01] BenC: I'm test building -rc4. Shall I push the rebase if it compiles? [15:03] rtg: I've already rebased it locally and pushed [15:03] BenC: I must have just missed it. [15:03] Forgot to push the -rc4 tag, so coming [15:07] rtg, smb_tp, cking, amitk: I think I'm going to assume that 2.6.27 will be going into intrepid and start preparing a package for upload [15:08] BenC: works for me. [15:08] BenC: ditto [15:08] BenC, good for me too [15:11] hey quick question, how can I have a particular upstream driver updated? [15:11] namely madwifi [15:11] err as in updated in linux-restricted-modules [15:11] crazy...BSD alone is not GPL compatible to the kernel [15:12] BenC: \0/ [15:12] the latest madwifi supports a class of netbooks that a lot of people would like to convert to ubuntu [15:12] poningru: madwifi is the latest upstream release [15:12] in hardy? [15:12] yes [15:12] we aren't syncing to svn repo [15:12] poningru: you probably need something from the madwifi trunk, not the release [15:12] yeah ofcourse [15:13] amitk, no iirc the latest from stable is the working one [15:13] its aspire one btw [15:13] checking [15:15] poningru: I'd test 2.6.27 and see if the ath5k/ath9k driver works for you [15:15] we are likely ditching madwifi to support those drivers instead [15:15] SWEET [15:15] cause I am pretty sure ath9k works [15:15] poningru: you must have an AR2425. [15:16] checking [15:16] damn it you are right madwifi stable is not .10.5.6 [15:16] thats the one that works [15:17] its called the ar5006EG [15:17] that would be ath5k, wouldn't it? [15:18] BenC: it might be 9k. Luis said that it supported one of the 5k chipsets. [15:18] ar5006EG is an AR2425. [15:18] they have some confusing model numbers [15:18] indeed [15:19] I should be getting one today or Monday, so I'll know soon for sure. [15:19] aspire one? [15:19] or the wifi card? [15:19] no, an AR2425 [15:19] wifi card [15:22] sigh I guess I will stick to my dkms solution for now [15:22] yeah I thought the .10.5 was the stable madwifi [15:24] poningru: not willing to try the 2.6.27 kernel packages? [15:24] well not for distribution [15:24] BenC, creating a no hassle ubuntu install for these netbooks [15:25] but yeah going to test out intrepid one of these days [15:26] and I guess get a .27 kernel for it [15:26] wait is intrepid going to have a .27 by default? [15:26] or .26 [15:26] poningru: we are currently testing .27 for Intrepid [15:28] oh sweet [15:28] rc3 just came out right? [15:28] * poningru checks kt [15:28] poningru: -rc4 [15:28] 0.0 [15:34] I shall test and file bugs! but first a ppa [16:29] time to reboot... [16:51] well...everything seems to be functioning well [16:52] ... famous last words? ;-) [17:04] * BenC goes to lunch === mkrufky is now known as mkrufky-lunch === mkrufky-lunch is now known as mkrufky === mkrufky is now known as mkrufky-away === mkrufky-away is now known as mkrufky
