juanpaulhello, how do i clean the kernel workdir (aka make mrproper) without remove the debian utilities directory? I've downloaded the kernel via git.02:35
dholbachhello my Kernel Hacker friends!07:18
dholbachwhat would you think about running a session at Ubuntu Developer Week?07:18
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek/Prep still has some free slots and I'm sure people would be interested in learning more about what you do07:19
siretarttjaalton: and perhaps in the right channel ;)11:13
siretartBenC: any chance we can enable the ext4dev module? I couldn't mount a usb-hardrive of a from a friend of mine because of lacking ext4dev module in the kernel11:13
lagaBenC: what's the status on aufs?12:43

Wellarkso is the decision to move to .27 now final?14:06
rtgWellark: Alpha 5 will be released with .27. If no big problems crop up, then its likely to be final.14:08
Wellarkgreat! so we will have hso-driver \o/14:08
zulBenC: did you have a look at that request-pull I sent yesterday?14:21
saispopossible to test 2.6.27 at this time ?14:23
oussema-harbihi bros14:36
oussema-harbiis there a particular thing to do -besides make ;make modules;make install ;and upgrade-grub; - to make the new compiled kernel fonctionning  on hardy ?14:37
rtgoussema-harbi: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMaintenance14:38
oussema-harbithank you14:39
oussema-harbido i need to make a new initrd.img ?14:42
rtgoussema-harbi: updateinitramfs runs as part of the package install.14:43
oussema-harbiyes in fact14:44
oussema-harbithe problem is ,that everything works fine ,from configuration -i used the file /boot/config-`uname -r` , to grub update14:44
oussema-harbibut when i reboot ,i get a kernel panic : the kernel is not able to find the root device14:45
oussema-harbimean root partition ?14:45
oussema-harbii could think that i didnt put some drivers ,but as i am using the configuration of my actual kernel ,it should work !!14:45
rtgoussema-harbi: dunno. maybe your device IDs are hosed. Is this a Feisty to Gutsy issue?14:46
oussema-harbihardy14:46
oussema-harbiand for the device IDS ,i tried changing the line :14:46
oussema-harbikernel /boot/vmlinuz... root=UUID ... by root=/dev/sda2 14:47
oussema-harbiand it didnt work14:47
oussema-harbi dev/sda2 is my actual root partition14:47
oussema-harbi?14:48
rtgoussema-harbi: what exactly is it that you're trying to do, and how did you build the kernel?14:51
smb_tpoussema-harbi, have you checked all your names. You seem to have used the native make command. The kernel naming might bedifferent14:51
oussema-harbii am compiling the linux kernel14:51
oussema-harbiihere is what i did excactly 14:52
oussema-harbicd linux-source ;cp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic  ./14:52
oussema-harbimake14:52
smb_tpoussema-harbi, Not .config?14:53
oussema-harbimake modules14:53
oussema-harbiyes i dit it14:53
smb_tpmake oldconfig14:53
oussema-harbicp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic  .config14:53
oussema-harbithen make install14:53
oussema-harbithen upgrade-grub14:53
oussema-harbithen reboot14:53
oussema-harbismb: Ok am trying make oldconfig14:54
smb_tpoussema-harbi, Making the kernel that way gets a different naming scheme14:54
oussema-harbiyes ,but they are update in the menu.lst14:55
oussema-harbiand there is even a new device map14:55
oussema-harbiin /boot14:55
smb_tpoussema-harbi, how are the new files extensions? 2.6.24-3?14:55
oussema-harbi2.6.24.314:56
oussema-harbithe problem is that the kernel is unable to recongnize the root partition14:56
oussema-harbiit says Unable to mount rootfs on unknown device root=".."14:57
smb_tpoussema-harbi, That might also be a problem of not finding the ramdisk or using the right one14:57
oussema-harbiyou mean the kernel loads a primary filesystem on ram to load modules ... then mounts the real one ?14:59
smb_tpoussema-harbi, yes14:59
smb_tpoussema-harbi, Do you have a initrd.img-2.6.24-3 ?15:00
oussema-harbione second ,i check15:00
smb_tpoussema-harbi, If not, look at update-initramfs15:00
oussema-harbino dont have 15:00
smb_tpupdate-initramfs -c -k 2.6.24-315:00
oussema-harbiok it's working15:01
oussema-harbii ll update grub and reboot to try15:01
smb_tpoussema-harbi, ok, that should work better now15:02
oussema-harbii thought that mounting a primary filesystem then the real one ,is only done on embedded linux systems ...15:02
oussema-harbiTHANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU15:02
oussema-harbi:-[15:03
smb_tpoussema-harbi, Not anymore, I doubt you will find any distro that doesn't use an initial ramdisk nowadays15:03
oussema-harbithank you smb 15:04
oussema-harbii got to reboot now :-)15:04
fabbioneBenC: ping?15:16
BenCfabbione: on call...what's up?16:07
fabbioneBenC: are we set for .26 for intrepid or do you still need gfs1 urgently for -next ?17:18

fabbioneNafallo: i wish i had time to read all the topics in the channels i am.. 17:20
Nafallohehe17:21
fabbioneBenC: anyway for future references, redhat-cluster (source in main) has always the latest gnbd and gfs117:22
fabbioneBenC: i basically just copy it from there into your git tree :)17:22
BenCfabbione: ok :)17:24
fabbioneBenC: anyway.. tree for tomorrow...17:24

tormodrtg: hi, can you please look at bug #192772? it has been pending for a while.19:07
smb_tp:q19:11
rtgtormod: uh, this app space shit drives me nuts 'cause I don't know the mechanism for syncing with debian. How about just attaching a patch that I can apply and be done with it ?19:12
tormodrtg: I think there is a patch attached since July 3rd. But a sync is fine too.19:15
tormodrtg: re your swearing, I don't know who assigned to you :)19:16
rtgtormod: nor do I. which of the 7 patches do you applied?19:17
rtgs/you/you want/19:17
tormodrtg: the one in comment 27: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15769999/linux-wlan-ng_0.2.9%2Bdfsg-1ubuntu1.debdiff19:18
tormodrtg: by the way to request a sync, you subscribe the archive admins19:24
rtgtormod: I think its too late for a sync (from what I recall) since I've already uploaded a package.19:29
tormodrtg: no problem, thanks a lot19:30
tormodrtg: I still don't see your upload on launchpad, was it accepted?20:16
rtgtormod: I've multiple distractions today. it'll take me a bit.20:17
tormodrtg: I thought " since I've already uploaded a package" meant you already had?20:17

ZettoHi all, bug 144745 can easily be solved incluing a mudule in '/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist'23:01
Zetto*module23:01
Zettoor loading modules in the right order23:02
Zettothis bug persist since ubuntu 7.10 ... please, fix it23:02
Zettoivoks, 23:08
Zettocan you help me to solute bug 144745 ?23:08
ivoksabout?23:09
Zettobug 144745 can easily be solved incluing a module in '/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist'23:09
Zettois a module of a webcam ...23:09
Zettothis bug persists since ubuntu 7.1023:09
ivoksi'm not kernel guy23:09
Zetto;(23:09
Zettoivoks, is toeasy to solve this bug23:10
ivoksso you want to blacklist the zc0301?23:10
Zettono 23:10
ivoksthen what?23:11
ivokscause, that's the solution commented on the bug report23:11
Zettoi wanna only that it come in blacklist from a main instalation23:11
ivoksah...23:11
Zettoyes, commented ^^23:11
ivoksyou should really talk with kernel guys then23:12
Zetto* I commented23:12
Zettoyep23:12
Zettobut where they are ?23:12
smb_tpZetto, I am here. Just looked at the bug23:12
Zettosmb_tp, thanks23:12
smb_tpZetto, Generally the problem with blacklisting is that the module won't load normally. I'd rather find a solution to that dependency between those two...23:13
mjg59Two drivers claim the same USB IDs, and apparently only one of them works23:14
smb_tpmjg59, So we should fix the tables then23:14
smb_tpBetter than blacklisting in any case23:15
Zettosmb_tp, i think zc0301 have no utility23:15
Zettoi have this webcam23:15
Zettoand only with the zc0301 module, the webcam will not work23:15
smb_tpZetto, let me check those two drivers23:16
Zettook23:16
Zettosmb_tp, ok23:16
* Zetto will be back in less than 10 minutes23:23
* Zetto is back23:31
smb_tpZetto, Ok, I looked at both drivers and I would rather tend to remove usb id's from the zc0301 module than to blacklist it as a whole. Interestingly the gspa driver labels the device "Asam Vmicro". But this would be not the first case of vendors re-using the same vendor and product id for another product23:33
smb_tpZetto, If you could attach the output of "sudo lsusb -vv" to the report this might help23:34
Zettosmb_tp, ok, i will23:34
smb_tpZetto, thanks23:35
Zettosmb_tp, i already blacklisted zc0301, any problem ?23:36
smb_tpZetto, No, that will only read out the information from the usb-bus23:36

Zettosmb_tp, thank, now worked good, i will attach 23:39
smb_tpZetto, k23:39
Zettosmb_tp, finished23:41
smb_tpZetto, Ok, thanks. I'll see what can be done23:43
Zettosmb_tp, it will take a long time ?23:47
Zettot4g, Brazil ?23:48
t4gZetto: yeah23:48
Zettot4g, me too :P23:48
t4gZetto: cool :P23:48
Zettot4g, can you talk in private ?23:48
smb_tpZetto, It won't be that fast. Even if I would change the code now, there will be some delay until the next upload is done23:48
t4gsure23:48
Zettosmb_tp, ok, very thanks !23:49
smb_tpZetto, NP. Thanks for the info23:49
Zettosmb_tp, can you send me the link to the fix in bzr ?23:50
smb_tpZetto, I'll update the bug report with it, as soon as there is something to add23:51
Zettook, very very thanks ...23:51
Zettosmb_tp, this bug was in ubuntu since 7.10 ....23:52
smb_tpZetto, Yes I saw the kernel version of the initial comment. But there are many of them and sometimes less critical (and this really depends from which side you look) tend to hang there. Sorry23:55
