[00:10] maxb: Not that I know of, but it certainly wouldn't be hard to whip one up, simply by pulling the version with a sed regexp. [01:06] hello [12:38] maxb, our tree should already carry the tags [12:39] there is a script which is used in early release which could be adaped to do it, called retag [12:39] but if you are using our git trees the git tags should already be on them [12:39] Yes, but I'd like to emulate whatever you do when I make myself a private build :-) [12:40] tagging is manual as we release === Kamping_Kaiser is now known as VK5FOSS === VK5FOSS is now known as Kamping_Kaiser [13:14] morning. [16:28] I have a problem with intrepid not booting because the initrd is not generated correctly... is this the right channel? [16:32] monreal: what is incorrect about it? [16:33] rtg: ok, well, this morning it did not boot... says "udevadm trigger is not permitted while udev is unconfigured." right at the beginning [16:34] I googled for this but the only real match does not help [16:34] hmm, seems like it might be a Keybuk question. [16:34] monreal: was this after an update? [16:34] this sounds like you rebooted *mid* update [16:35] hard to say, the machine ran for some days [16:35] Keybuk: don't think so [16:35] or something called update-initramfs without a dependency on initramfs-tools (!!) [16:35] monreal: can you boot an older kernel? [16:35] well, I can boot the system with an old kernel and the old initrd [16:36] .27-9 [16:36] apw: here [16:36] I lot wifi [16:36] and seem not the only one [16:36] monreal: good, do that, then run 'update-initramfs -u' [16:36] you lost wifi how? [16:36] you mean if you boot with the rfkill on, and then turn it off ?

[16:38] monreal: probably, but your _are_ living on the bleeding edge. [16:38] I'll wait for a new kernel bump [16:38] if you weren't using lbm before you could deinstall that i believe [16:38] do guys have a time line? so I boot into -7 until then [16:39] rtg: bleeding edge? this is intrepid... [16:39] BUGabundo, did you have linux-backports-modules before i asked you to install it? [16:39] if not then i believe just removing it should sort you out [16:39] let me check [16:39] monreal: oh, I guess I assumed Jaunty.

[16:42] apw: no idea! [16:42] need to check aptlog [16:42] is there a way to extract the initrds? I have a good and a bad .27-9 initrd, maybe the difference would tell what's wrong?

Doh. [16:55] apw so in the mean time removing it should fix it?

[16:57] at work.. busy [16:58] that's why I needed it working [16:58] strange... it was working fine, I upgraded as I do every day... still worked [16:58] then when I tried to reconect to wifi... no more! [17:01] BUGabundo, strange indeed [17:05] apw: Whats the status of getting the HDMI patches into the kernel for the dell hardware we have/are working with? [17:07] i thought the stuff kernel side was already in [17:07] mayhaps i miss remember [17:08] apw: afaik there were patches that Mario pointed out to you that needed to be applied. [17:08] they got applied somewhere i thought [17:09] perhaps it was just a ppa kernel, hmmm [17:09] TheMuso, the short answer is i don't know for sure [17:09] and i need to go find out [17:09] apw: Just checking, but I don't think so, as I have a separate branch locally that I rebase against mainline with, and the patches always have to be applied. [17:10] apw: i.e I have to apply the patches every time I want the latest jaunty kernel for the dell I have access to currently. [17:10] TheMuso, is that branch somewhere i can see it, be good to compare it to anything i find [17:10] apw: No, once I rebase against latest Jaunty I can push a tree to zinc if thats helpful. [17:10] TheMuso, that would be perfect [17:10] ok will do so shortly. [17:12] TheMuso, sorry to be vague, i have 71 branches in my jaunty tree alone and some things slip through the cracks [17:12] apw: np [17:22] apw: git://kernel.ubuntu.com/themuso/ubuntu-jaunty.git has the hdmi related patches rebased on top of latest jaunty mainline in git./ [17:26] apw: I'll take care of the Jaunty HDMI stuff. [17:26] rtg ... ok [17:28] apw: how did all of these patches get your SOB without going into Jaunty? [17:28] i assume they are signed off by me in the branch that i have here [17:28] TheMuso, where did you get your patch stack from [17:28] me ? [17:29] i did the collection of the patches a long time back and we made test kernels [17:29] i would have signed them as i pulled them into my branch ready for pushing to jaunty [17:29] apw: I guess that wuold explain it [17:29] i assume that part is the bit which was missed [17:29] apw: I asked Mario about the HDMI patches, and he referred me to a tree of yours if I remember correctly. [17:29] then that all fits with my expectation [17:30] TheMuso: I assume this stuff is tested to work? [17:30] i was going to compare the two, but as i assume TheMuso has actually tested this pile, i would tend to use his [17:30] rtg: Yes, I've been rolling hdmi enabled kernels every jaunty kernel upload for use on the dell notebook I currently have, and yes HDMI is working. [17:30] TheMuso: cool, I'll pull it === pgraner is now known as pgraner-afk [18:21] do we copy modules.order into /lib/modules/blah ? [18:25] Keybuk: never seen that file. [18:25] it's in the top-level of the build afterwards [18:25] the word would me made of more kittens if you could include that in the kernel package in the /lib/modules/blah directory [18:26] something new with Jaunty that I've not noticed? [18:26] no, turned up about a year ago upstream, [18:26] it's a file containing the order that modules would be linked into the kernel had they been built-ins [18:26] modprobe will load modules in that order when multiple ones match [18:26] ie. the modprobe order for a MODALIAS and the built-in order will match [18:26] rather than being random [18:28] Keybuk: there appears to be one in each subdirectory that creates a .ko. Do you want them all? [18:28] no [18:29] just the top-level one [18:29] the kernel cats them all together as part of MODPOST [18:29] there it is, couldn't see it for the forest. [18:31] by the way, what is the correct next step for bug #300143? [18:31] Malone bug 300143 in linux "tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/300143 [18:34] apw: you remember how we were looking into the problem of making built-in modules show up somehow to modprobe [18:34] apw: it turns out that the kernel almost but not quite does this already [18:34] e.g. /sys/module/printk :p [18:34] it just looks like certain modules aren't showing up [18:34] (like ata_piix) [18:43] Keybuk: how is modules.order going to be affected by external build like LBM ? [18:51] my question's been answered elsewhere, but thank you [18:51] I'll submit the patch properly [18:59] rtg: doesn't LBM install into updates? [19:00] Keybuk: yep, but it also pre-empts module load order when /etc/modprobe.d/conf is set. [19:01] Keybuk: depmod.d that is [19:11] how do you mean? [19:12] Keybuk: /etc/depmod.d/ubuntu.conf controls search order, which seems to preempt the order defined in modules.order [19:13] exactly [19:13] so if you have something in LBM, it'll be in updates, so preferred [19:14] Keybuk: yep. [19:14] isn't that desired? [19:14] Keybuk: yes, which is why I asked if modules.order would have any affect in that case. If not, then I'm ok with it. [19:16] great [19:17] Keybuk: different topic. is it OK to make kexec-tools depend on initramfs-tools ? [19:17] I can't see why not [19:18] k [20:22] is this the kernel?
