| fransman | What kernel git is used for ports in jaunty ? | 13:56 |
|---|---|---|
| persia | fransman, There's three trees. One for i586/amd64/armel, one for hppa/i486/ai64/powerpc/sparc, and one for lpia. Look for ubuntu/ubuntu-$release(-ports|-lpia) from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git | 14:03 |
| fransman | Ok i'll go for the sparc thanks | 14:04 |
| persia | That's definitely -ports then. | 14:04 |
| fransman | sure it is | 14:05 |
| fransman | strange there a ubuntu-intrepid-ports.git but non for jaunty yet | 14:13 |
| fransman | how did they build the Alpha version then | 14:14 |
| persia | Probably using the same kernel. | 14:19 |
| persia | Hrm, no there is a new kernel in jaunty. | 14:21 |
| fransman | So the only question is from what git repro they extracted it? | 14:23 |
| persia | From https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ports it appears the uploader was NCommander, which would suggest that mcasadevall/ubuntu-jaunty-ports-1.1.git might be the right tree. | 14:23 |
| fransman | cool, nice direction | 14:24 |
| persia | Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be in-channel now: I've asked him to join, but can't promise he's currently in front of his IRC client. | 14:24 |
| persia | You might try one of the other ubuntu-jaunty-ports trees as well. Nothing seems much more recent to me though. | 14:25 |
| fransman | thanks for your support so far | 14:27 |
| NCommander | persia, you summoned me? | 19:23 |
| fransman | NCommander: what kernel git is used in Sparc for the latest alpha? | 20:33 |
| NCommander | ports | 20:33 |
| NCommander | Not the main kernel | 20:33 |
| fransman | true but what ports | 20:33 |
| fransman | because it wasn't clear to me | 20:34 |
| fransman | i didn't find a ubuntu-jaunty-ports.git | 20:35 |
| NCommander | fransman, its currently out of ncommander/ubuntu-jaunty-ports, or something like that | 20:36 |
| NCommander | We're redoing the ports tree at the moment to autorebase against mainline kernel, so that branch is dated | 20:36 |
| fransman | so i have to wait for a week | 20:37 |
| NCommander | pretty much, but we have no real means to test SPARC kernels | 20:38 |
| NCommander | (no hardware) | 20:38 |
| NCommander | If your interested in helping improving SPARC, I'd love to have some overall help | 20:39 |
| fransman | but there a build bot isn't it? | 20:39 |
| NCommander | the buildds aren't accessible | 20:40 |
| NCommander | I have access to a SPARC box to make sure the kernel builds | 20:40 |
| NCommander | Booting is another story | 20:40 |
| fransman | ha ha ha | 20:40 |
| fransman | nice | 20:40 |
| fransman | Can we create a auto build script, that does testing at night? | 20:42 |
| fransman | I know there something like this story needed for the general kernel-sparc list as well | 20:44 |
| fransman | And I am sure DavidM builds at night | 20:45 |
| fransman | but that's not Debian/Ubuntu oriented at all | 20:45 |
| NCommander | well, having an autobuild system is tricky | 20:46 |
| NCommander | We need a devirtualized PPA to do that | 20:46 |
| * NCommander glances at lamont | 20:46 | |
| NCommander | And Canonical is very hestitant to give one of those out | 20:47 |
| * fransman hides with 6 sparc box around | 20:48 | |
| NCommander | O_O; | 20:53 |
| NCommander | give me one :-) | 20:53 |
| * NCommander runs | 20:53 | |
| fransman | I am sure we can find one on ebay for you ! | 20:54 |
| NCommander | That requires me having money | 20:55 |
| * NCommander notes Ubuntu's IA64 builders were eBay specials. | 20:55 | |
| fransman | So we need to look for some sponsors as well | 21:02 |
| fransman | that can't be the bumps of the road | 21:05 |
| NCommander | fransman, TheMuso will handle any uploading needs | 21:05 |
| fransman | thanks going to bed | 21:58 |
