crimsunTheMuso: in jaunty's new PM world, we should investigate handling legacy (non-PM-enabled) sound modules for suspend (& resume) by unloading+alsactl store (& loading+alsactl restore) as per Takashi's recent e-mail on alsa-devel.  (Yes, the drivers should be updated, really...)01:04
crimsunthere's some elbow grease involved, but I'm happy to look into it this cycle01:05
TheMusocrimsun: Ok, I'm happy to help where necessary.,01:08
TheMusocrimsun: I've also been attempting to play with a managable source package for alsa modules in a separate package. Haven't really come up with anything yet, short of using the script in alsa-driver to copy the files into alsa-kernel from a git tree.01:08
TheMusocrimsun: In that case, I'll subscribe to any pm related specs.01:10
zoopsterIf a kernel bug affecting ubuntu has been fixed upstream how can I get my hands on a compiled kernel with the patch to test?02:01
TheMusozoopster: It depends on what version of the kernel the bug was fixed in. If its part of 2.6.27, then likely enough it may be included in a future kernel update for intrepid.02:24
zoopsterTheMuso: thanks. the patches were put upstream for 2.6.27 and launchpad shows fix released from upstream...was unsure how that trickled down and how long that took. I didn't want to recompile a kernel with the patches if that was already done somewhere else02:27

tseliotamitk: I forgot to send a message (which reports a problem with the headers of kernel 2.6.28) with my @ubuntu.com alias and therefore it's waiting for moderation11:45
amitktseliot: I don't have moderator access of the list. You might have to wait for BenC or rtg.12:00
tseliotamitk: ah, ok, thanks12:01

snowblinkhi - can I ask why dapper's latest kernel package appears to be 2.6.15.54, but contains 2.6.15.53?12:14
smb_tpsnowblink, where did you find 2.6.15.54?13:26
snowblinksmb_tp, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz13:30
smb_tpsnowblink, This is the version number of the linux-meta package. The upload counter is just incidentally one above the counter of the kernel image itself13:38
snowblinksmb_tp, ah ok. Thanks - it was a little confusing.13:40
smb_tpYes, normally this number is much smaller than that of the kernel itself, but for some odd reason it jumped to this area some time ago. Now both are quite close which is a bit confusing13:41
tseliotrtg, amitk: is what I reported in the mailing list a known problem?15:09
rtgtseliot: I'm just looking at it. I think its likely a packaging problem.15:10
tseliotrtg: ok, that would be good news15:11
_rubenfrom what i've seen the asm/ dir got butchered in .28 (or .27 already perhaps) .. seen its implications in various out of tree modules15:12
_rubenwhich isnt an ubuntu specific thing, but upstream change15:12
tseliot_ruben: if this is true then other files should not include headers from asm15:13
_rubenwell, its not completely gone, but lots of stuff has been (re)moved (to other places) .. i dont know any details, just an observation :)15:14
tseliotah, ok15:14
rtgtseliot: I think I have to agree with _ruben. it looks like stuff has really moved around.15:20
tseliotrtg: shall I file a bug report then?15:20
rtgtseliot: its not really a bug per se, its more of a third party module problem. don't you think?15:21
rtgI guess you could file a bug against nVidia15:21
tseliotrtg: but the compilation test only includes this:15:22
tseliot#include <linux/version.h> #include <linux/utsname.h>15:22
tseliotand this fails15:22
tseliotI don't think it's nvidia specific15:22
tseliotrtg: example: /lib/modules/2.6.28-1-ub-generic/build/include/linux/sched.h:48:36: error: asm/param.h: No such file or directory15:23
rtgtseliot: hmm, that does seem straightforward. I wonder if BenC knows 'cause I haven't followed the .28 development cycle very closely.15:23
tseliotok15:24
BenCtseliot: are you sure you are using standard build procedures?15:26
BenCtseliot: are there broken symlinks in there?15:27
tseliotBenC: I'm using Nvidia's makefile as usual. Nvidia's conftest.sh tries to build the test file with cc -D__KERNEL__ -DKBUILD_BASENAME="#conftest12386" -DKBUILD_MODNAME="#conftest12386" -nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.3.2/include -I/lib/modules/2.6.28-1-ub-generic/build/include/asm/mach-default  -I/lib/modules/2.6.28-1-ub-generic/build/include -o conftest12386 conftest12386.c15:30
BenCtseliot: looks like an nvidia bug15:30
BenCtseliot: it's missing -I/.../arch/x86/include15:31
BenCtseliot: note, fglrx built fine with latest header packages...I didn't test nvidia15:31
tseliotBenC: ok, let me try again15:32
rtgBenC: apw and I were wondering why the build number isn't exposed in /proc/version ?15:46
rtgif it were, then we could drop /proc/version_signature15:47
apwi presume its not in the main version number to maintain the location of the modules through a complete abi cycle15:49
tseliotBenC: I get this error: http://pastebin.com/m7302cc4b15:55
tseliotBenC: nevermind, I had to add .../arch/x86/include/asm/mach-default too16:15
tseliotI'll report the problem to NVIDIA16:15
tseliotthanks for your time16:15
lamonthow do I get a cli kvm host to keep running when the window is iconified or on a diff workspace???16:35
rtgsoren: ^^^16:37
cjbHi, something between intrepid 2.6.27-2 (which works fine) and 2.6.27-7 gives me two-second lag on my ssh connections on an otherwise fast (500KB/sec) cable line.  Anyone know anything about that?16:43
cjbHTTP seems unaffected.  It's quite odd.16:43
rtgcjb: 'GSSAPIAuthentication no' ?16:44
cjb /etc/ssh/ssh_config says GSSAPIAuthentication yes16:45
rtgcjb: try setting it in ~/.ssh/config16:45
cjbSo I guess not.  Does that have some recently-regressed kernel interaction, then?16:45
rtgcjb: not to my knowledge16:46
cjboh, ok.16:46
rtgapw: I noticed actual activity in Linus' repo this morning, so he must be back from scuba diving.17:36
apwrtg wondered why he was so quiet, having a holiday, outrageous17:37
lamontdamn fiordland17:54
lagalamont: he was in maui apparently18:26
