| soleblaze | I'm trying to create a custom kernel for ubuntu. I created a config.aoa file for it and stuck it in debian/config/i386 .. it ran all the way and then gave me an ABI file not found error.. how do I create the ABI files? | 02:55 |

| jernst | hello, can someone tell me on what mainline rc is based linux-image-generic 2.6.27.5.5 ? | 06:54 |
| === nm-rocker is now known as asac_ | ||

| Ng | what determines the power/level state of a USB device (wrt sysfs)? | 11:47 |
| Ng | I have a fingerprint scanner in my laptop which I have precisely no intention of ever using. it gets a bit warm and its power/level is "on". If I set that to "auto" it cools down | 11:47 |
| Ng | similarly I have a USB webcam in the lid of my laptop which I basically never use, so I set that to "auto" too and it still works, so I'm curious why things aren't set to auto automatically | 11:47 |
| Ng | (e.g. /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb4/4-5/power/level is the camera's state) | 11:48 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| Ng | oh right, it's because usb devices suck and don't always implement usb power management :/ | 11:52 |
| amitk | Ng: usb autosuspend doesn't always work as you have figured out. So the default of 'auto' caused lots of breakages in 2.6.23-24 | 11:56 |
| Ng | sucks | 11:58 |
| Ng | I hope hal grows the ability to whitelist suspendable devices, but rc.local will do for now :) | 11:59 |
| amitk | Ng: yeah. rc.local is my collection of powertop recommendations :) | 12:01 |

| CarlFK | smb_tp: morning. as a workaround so that my box will boot when on battery, can the 170 second timeout be set via a kernel param? | 17:11 |
| BenC | Hey everyone, I know there's supposed to be a meeting this week here | 17:13 |
| BenC | but this is basically to inform everyone that our meetings are moving to #ubuntu-meeting at 17:00 UTC on Tue's | 17:15 |
| ogra | oh, you hold them here ? | 17:15 |
| ogra | :) | 17:15 |
| zul | is there one today? | 17:16 |
| rtg | zul: whats up with xen in Intrepid? Is it OK? | 17:16 |
| zul | rtg: just trying to package it now | 17:17 |
| rtg | zul: is that a separate tree? | 17:17 |
| zul | rtg: yep | 17:17 |
| zul | I should be pushing it to the git repo today if you want to have a look at it | 17:18 |
| rtg | zul: so, you're doing your own uploads for taht? | 17:18 |
| zul | rtg: in theory yes | 17:18 |
| rtg | zul: whats the theory part? | 17:18 |
| zul | rtg: I have to talk to dendrobates about it still | 17:18 |
| zul | and he is sick right now afaik | 17:18 |
| rtg | zul whats the issue? | 17:19 |
| zul | rtg: the only issues right now is that Ive heard that we are going to pass it off to you guys once the main bits are done (ie security patches) but I havent heard anything else | 17:20 |
| zul | rtg: the issue with the packaging right now is just generating the ABI | 17:20 |
| rtg | zul: ok, that is not unexpected. | 17:20 |
| rtg | zul: ABI is always a pain | 17:21 |
| zul | rtg: tell me about it | 17:21 |
| zul | rtg: ill bug you about it in a bit | 17:22 |
| rtg | zul: ok | 17:22 |

| zul | rtg: ping | 19:23 |
| rtg | zul: pong | 19:31 |
| zul | rtg: have you seen the way linux-rt package their kernel they basically take the debian directory fetch the linux-source from the archive and then patch and it build it, its quite neat Im going to use the same idea | 19:32 |
| rtg | zul: seems reasonable. | 19:32 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, I do not know of any way to reduce this timeout. However, as a workaround until the real problem is found, you might use "nohz=off highres=disabled". unfortunately this reduces battery time. | 19:44 |
| CarlFK | smb_tp: shucks. thanks | 19:51 |
| smb_tp | tjaalton, ping. Did you get the emails I sent you? | 20:10 |
| tjaalton | smb_tp: yep, need to try the packages tomorrow | 20:27 |
| smb_tp | tjaalton, Ok, no hurry. It was just so quiet I wondered I had the right mail address... | 20:27 |
| tjaalton | smb_tp: heh, yeah it worked alright | 20:29 |
| smb_tp | tjaalton, Ok, cool. :) | 20:29 |
| zul | rtg: i have the kernels built Ill upload them to my ppa and to my git tree as well | 21:21 |
