[13:56] <fransman> What kernel git is used for ports in jaunty ?
[14:03] <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
[14:04] <fransman> Ok i'll go for the sparc thanks
[14:04] <persia> That's definitely -ports then.
[14:05] <fransman> sure it is
[14:13] <fransman> strange there a ubuntu-intrepid-ports.git but non for jaunty yet
[14:14] <fransman> how did they build the Alpha version then
[14:19] <persia> Probably using the same kernel.
[14:21] <persia> Hrm, no there is a new kernel in jaunty.
[14:23] <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.
[14:24] <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.
[14:25] <persia> You might try one of the other ubuntu-jaunty-ports trees as well.  Nothing seems much more recent to me though.
[14:27] <fransman> thanks for your support so far
[19:23] <NCommander> persia, you summoned me?
[20:33] <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
[20:34] <fransman> because it wasn't clear to me
[20:35] <fransman> i didn't find a ubuntu-jaunty-ports.git
[20:36] <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
[20:37] <fransman> so i have to wait for a week
[20:38] <NCommander> pretty much, but we have no real means to test SPARC kernels
[20:38] <NCommander> (no hardware)
[20:39] <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?
[20:40] <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
[20:42] <fransman> Can we create a auto build script, that does testing at night? 
[20:44] <fransman> I know there something like this story needed for the general kernel-sparc list as well 
[20:45] <fransman> And I am sure DavidM builds at night
[20:45] <fransman> but that's not Debian/Ubuntu oriented at all
[20:46] <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 
[20:47] <NCommander> And Canonical is very hestitant to give one of those out
[20:48]  * fransman hides with 6 sparc box around
[20:53] <NCommander> O_O;
[20:53] <NCommander> give me one :-)
[20:53]  * NCommander runs
[20:54] <fransman> I am sure we can find one on ebay for you !
[20:55] <NCommander> That requires me having money
[20:55]  * NCommander notes Ubuntu's IA64 builders were eBay specials.
[21:02] <fransman> So we need to look for some sponsors as well
[21:05] <fransman> that can't be the bumps of the road 
[21:05] <NCommander> fransman, TheMuso will handle any uploading needs
[21:58] <fransman> thanks going to bed
