amitkCarlFK: one thing you could do it install the kerneloops package so that oopses are reported upstream and to LP07:05
rc55Hi - I've just updated to the 2.6.27-generic kernel on Intrepid and it's broken Realtek 8139/810x Wired Ethernet access - it's quite severe - there is a bug reported but I think it might be severe enough to pull the update11:35
rc55Is there anything I can do to assist you guys here with it?11:38
darkknighthey i am a newbie to kernel programming and bug fixing.....can anyone provide info as how to learn kernel programming as soon as possible so that I can fix bugs13:24
amitkdarkknight: kernelnewbies.org is a good site to start learning kernel programming13:27
amitkwhen you have gathered sufficient info, you can help by looking through https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux to see if any of the bugs can be reproduced on HW you own.13:28
c64z0ttelhello14:01
c64z0tteli have some trouble with two nic's from realtek, one is on board, and i was not able to open a webpage14:03
c64z0tteli am using ubuntu 8.10 64bit14:03
c64z0tteli can ping, dns is also working, like ping www.google.com14:04
c64z0tteludp is working, tested via nc external_ip 999914:05
c64z0ttelbut tcp is not, i read something about the broken driver for r8168/9, i changed the driver, like written everywhere14:07
c64z0ttelbut it changed nothing14:07
c64z0ttelso i turned the internal nic off, and put a 8139too in the machine, but it changed nothing14:08
c64z0ttelso i am guessing, it has something to do with the kernel stack14:08

CarlFKis there  a place I can browse vanilla kernel source?18:32
CarlFKI need the url for vivi.c - found it once.. cant find it now 18:32
aboganiCarlFK: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=summary?18:47
CarlFKabogani: i have been surfing around there... cant find vivi.c 18:48
CarlFKI 'think' the main version is http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/file/50e4cdc46320/linux/drivers/media/video/vivi.c18:49
CarlFKbut that's probably a version ahead of what we are using 18:49
