| elmargol | I have installed 2.6.28 and 2.6.28-rc8 and somehow 2.6.28 can not find /lib/modules/2.6.28 :( | 09:50 |
|---|---|---|
| elmargol | Is kinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28 the valid command to create the initrd? | 09:51 |
| elmargol | my /root is encrypted ... | 09:51 |

| siretart | why is there no linux-image-debug-2.6.27-9-generic on security.ubuntu.com? `apt-cache madison linux-image-debug-2.6.27-9-generic` claims it to be produced from the source package linux_2.6.27-9.19, but it does not seem to be published at all! | 13:38 |

| DeSony | Hi, I want to know: In the boot process, does BIOS is loaded into the memory (RAM)? | 14:34 |
| DeSony | I mean, does BIOS in loaded from ROM to RAM at the boot time.?? | 14:35 |
| Keybuk | I believe that BIOS is executed directly from ROM | 14:35 |
| Keybuk | (well, flash ram) | 14:35 |
| DeSony | I am reading about kernel boot process. In one of the document it is given as follows: "Given the different uses of BIOS functions, the BIOS is made up of two parts: the POST code and runtime services. After the POST is complete, it is flushed from memory, but the BIOS runtime services remain and are available to the target operating system." | 14:39 |
| DeSony | what does it means "it is flushed from memory"? | 14:39 |
| Kano | hi apw , what do you want to do about the backlight problem? | 14:58 |
| lool | sconklin: I've sent the Poulsbo update as a patch against hardy-lum; it's pending moderation (it's 60 kB for a limit of 40) | 15:12 |
| lool | smb_tp_: ^ and that's post-A3 stuff of course | 15:13 |
| rtg | lool: hey, I know the moderator. | 15:15 |
| smb_tp_ | me too :) | 15:16 |
| lool | rtg: Happy to send it in a different form if 60kB is too big | 15:16 |
| sconklin | lool: I'm feeling quite a bit better today, I'll have a look | 15:16 |
| lool | sconklin: Glad about that; FYI I'm feeling awful, I think we swapped | 15:16 |
| rtg | lool: no problem. its done | 15:16 |
| smb_tp_ | lool, Well for hardy post 8.04.02 | 15:16 |
| sconklin | lool: Mine was viral, nothing to do for it except sleep | 15:16 |
| smb_tp_ | lool, but I will look into it | 15:16 |
| lool | smb_tp_: What actual date does that mean? | 15:17 |
| smb_tp_ | lool, The release is scheduled next week. So right after that | 15:17 |
| lool | smb_tp_: Ack | 15:18 |
| lool | thanks | 15:18 |
| lool | rtg: Thanks | 15:18 |
| lool | BTW folks, I massaged git-format-patch's output into an email; I'm sorry if the result is incorrect, and am happy to fix it if I messed up things | 15:19 |
| tjaalton | what kernel are the jaunty ports builders using? | 15:21 |
| lool | tjaalton: Perhaps something to ask infinity or lamont about | 15:23 |
| tjaalton | lool: ok, thanks | 15:24 |
| rtg | tjaalton: they are likely Hardy based. | 15:24 |
| tjaalton | rtg: ok.. I think it shouldn't matter either, as long as the current one is available | 15:26 |
| rtg | lool: an alternative to large patches on the mailing list is to request a pull from a git repo on zinc (or some other publicly accessible location) | 15:26 |
| tjaalton | regarding the xorg* ftbfs's | 15:26 |
| lool | rtg: Yeah, I don't have zinc access though; I was thinking that perhaps I should contribute some patches and then request access; in the mean time, I guess I can push to people.ubuntu.com or so | 15:28 |
| rtg | lool: its pretty easy to get an account on zinc. I think you just file an RT. | 15:29 |
| lool | "To request an account on this machine for working with Ubuntu's Kernel Team and its git tree, email Ben Collins. " says kernel.ubuntu.com | 15:29 |
| rtg | lool: who will just file an RT, but start with BenC2 anyway | 15:30 |
| lool | Understood | 15:30 |

| CarlFK | dmesg shows: [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: root=UUID=7a52d80c-2091-492f-b21a-f9c3174934c0 ro netconsole=@/,@192.168.1.155/ | 16:20 |
| CarlFK | but netconsole didn't get loaded | 16:20 |
| CarlFK | "because netconsole isn't included in your kernel" -- duh. | 16:28 |
| Kano | CarlFK: modprobe it | 16:30 |
| CarlFK | Kano: yeah, just trying to automate it. debugging a panic. | 16:30 |
| Kano | add a initramfs hook | 16:31 |
| CarlFK | i don't need it early - it's an app (dvswitch) - so some startup script is fine | 16:31 |

| rtg | apw: pong | 19:25 |
| apw | rtg, hi | 19:26 |
| apw | you back? | 19:26 |
| rtg | I've been giving the lpia trees some thought myself | 19:26 |
| apw | on the short term front i've just pushed up a version of the ubuntu-jaunty-lpia.git tree which fixes the dependancy problem | 19:27 |
| apw | and i've pushed up a new ubuntu-jaunty-lpia-lrm.git tree | 19:27 |
| apw | both of which i have compiled together in my PPA | 19:27 |
| apw | so i think they are at least in reasonable state | 19:28 |
| rtg | apw: ok. I'll have a look. I also have some thoughts about development and tree management, but I think I'll propose them on the mailing list | 19:28 |
| apw | would be nice to stop these being entirly sepearate if we can cope, as the lrm is actually unmodified, other than the mods to make it build for lpia alone | 19:29 |
| apw | it has 0 local modifications right now | 19:29 |
| apw | rtg, am going to purchase some food for dinner. will check in with you in about an hour to see if i need to do anything else with those lpia trees or if we can call them good | 19:33 |
| rtg | apw: don't sweat it 'cause it'll be tomorrow. gotta get CRDA packaged. | 19:33 |

| CarlFK1 | I need this to happen later: cat /etc/modules; netconsole netconsole="@/,@192.168.1.155/" | 20:12 |
| CarlFK1 | cuz that gives me: [ 19.952019] netconsole: no IP address for eth0, aborting | 20:12 |
| CarlFK1 | so where is the right place to put: sudo modprobe netconsole netconsole="@/,@192.168.1.155/" | 20:13 |
| apw | well it may even be after you login, so .. | 20:13 |
| CarlFK1 | this is to gether dumps for https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/317227 | 20:13 |
| ubot3 | Malone bug 317227 in linux "skb_over_panic skbuff.c:128 invalid opcode: 0000 [1] SMP " [Undecided,New] | 20:13 |
| apw | i would imagine netconsole must have some other mechanism to connect early? | 20:14 |
| CarlFK1 | late is fine - i need to run a user space app | 20:14 |
| apw | netconsole=[src-port]@[src-ip]/[dev],[tgt-port]@<tgt-ip>/[tgt-macaddr] | 20:14 |
| CarlFK1 | I just want it setup as part of the boot so I don't have to | 20:14 |
| CarlFK1 | <tgt-ip> isn't optional | 20:14 |
