[16:27] <draik_> Hello all. My computer seems to freeze every so often, always within 5-7 minutes. It varies; boot, login prompt, KDE splash, login, and minor usage (yakuake and kwrite).
[16:27] <draik_> Right now, it just froze on the KDE splash screen. I got the image of the hard drive, but the 2 following images are still blurry.
[16:33] <draik_> I am on Intrepid with 2.6.27-12-generic
[19:18] <steve_baker> i'd like to change a driver to load as a module instead statically linking
[19:18] <steve_baker> but make menuconfig will not let me change the option
[19:18] <steve_baker> it doesn't give an error or warning, just doesn't change
[19:19] <steve_baker> it looks like this:   -*- Sonics Silicon Backplane support
[19:20] <steve_baker> i know its a noob ?, sorry, i just haven't had any luck finding an answer
[19:21] <mjg59> steve_baker: Something that depends on that module is built into the kernel
[19:21] <steve_baker> makes sense
[20:21] <steve_baker> is there an easy way to navigate to a config option in menuconfig if you know its identifier, i can't seem to find SSB_POSSIBLE anywhere in menuconfig :(
[20:34] <tcole> hello
[20:35] <tcole> I've got a kernel bug with a patch and everything that's been sitting there for at least a month now

[22:07] <heywood> hello all
[22:26] <heywood> anyone know the difference between disabling hyperthreading by passing "noht" to grub at boot time, as opposed to issuing "echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/node/node0/cpu2/online" in /etc/rc.local?
[23:32] <JanC> I guess, you mean passing noht to the kernel from within grub?
