doctormoJanC: So I've managed to get it working one way, I've been picking apart the serial code coming out of the wine program, but that isn't being sent to the usbtty0 correctly by slsniff00:56
JanCI only found those 2 using google, have no experience with them  ツ00:57
JanCalso, from what I've read from somebody using cu & tee on a BSD system (which could work too, in theory), it's not always easy to get timing right with serial devices00:58
JanCBTW: I googled for "linux serial tee"00:59
JanCthere might be more to find if you do00:59
JanCdoctormo: ^^^01:00
doctormoJanC: Thank you so much for your help01:05
doctormoJanC: I remeber back in the past using a program which would output any and all open file handles.01:06
doctormoPerhaps that would work in the case, but I forget what the program was called.01:06
JanClsof ?01:06
doctormoJanC: sort of but it worked a bit like xargs, where you'd specify the command to execute as an arg01:07
JanCprobably a wrapper script or something?01:08
JanCbased on lsof -p ?01:10
doctormoJanC: it was probably lsof with some specific options01:12
Luredo we cherry-pick also from non-linus git's? there is one quirk in sound-2.6.git - see bug 28583410:00

apwLure, as a general rule we try and pick stuff which is in or definatly going to linus' tree10:26
apwif the quirk is likely to go upstream and is clean and self-contained we do consider them at times10:26

Lureapw: will first test in ppa and then talk with audio guys what they think11:30
Lureapw: thanks for info11:31
wgrantCan we get a more recent aufs into Jaunty?11:49
apwthe maintainer was talking about updating it12:01
elmargolI have found a ubuntu related regression. Is there a tag or something in order to mark the bug?12:17
Keybukapw: floppy patch accepted upstream into -mm12:20
apwKeybuk, good news indeed12:20
smb_tpelmargol, several, depending on where the regression is. For a regression between releases regression-release, if its in a -proposed pocket regression-proposed or regression-update if the regression made it into updates12:21
apwi am likely to sru that to intrepid today, as it has lots of good positive feedback12:21
apwsmb_tp, or regression-potential if its in jaunty (i believe)12:21
elmargolsmb_tp: it is a gregression between the ubuntu intrpid kernel and the mainline kernel12:21
Keybukapw: I'm going to fire off the rest of the alias patches today12:21
KeybukKay and I found a few more12:22
smb_tpapw, Was about to ask12:22
smb_tpelmargol, Hm, is it working in Hardy?12:22
apwawsome indeed.  i am guessing we'll sru the ones people find a problem wth now for intrepid12:22
Keybukthey've all gone from modprobe conf files12:23
Keybukso there's only a regression if you delete them ;)12:23
Keybukmy big goal for today is to get m-i-t 3.7 pre finally uploaded12:23
elmargolsmb_tp: No. 2.6.27-11-generic is affected 2.6.27-02062719-generic <- works perfect bug #10321012:23
ubot3Malone bug 103210 in linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22 "ipw3945 Wifi connection is very slow" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/10321012:23
smb_tpI would tend to call that not a regression. Since for a regression it must have worked before with a Ubuntu release kernel.12:26
elmargolThe short descripton is. I connec to a wireless network and starty downloading a file... After 100-200MB de downloads drops from 1,7MB/s to 100kb/s... If I reconnect I get 1.7MB/s for another 100MB12:26
smb_tpIf it was working well in Hardy but got worse with Intrepid it would be regression-release12:26
elmargolIsn't it still worth investigating? since it works using the mainline kernel?12:27
smb_tpelmargol, sure might be that12:28

smb_tp    iwlwifi: scan correct setting of valid rx_chains12:28
smb_tpwhich came in with 2.6.27.19, otherwise the -proposed kernel for intrepid has the stable fixes up to 2.6.27.18. 12:30
smb_tpSo probably if you try proposed and it works not, then it is pretty much cornered for that. If you can update the bug with that info, we can get a test kernel that has this additional patch and you could verify this helps12:31
elmargolsmb_tp: it chould work on jaunty?12:31
smb_tplemme see12:32
smb_tpThat patch went into Jaunty, so it should work there, too12:33
elmargolOk. i try the alpha and let you know12:35
smb_tpelmargol, but the patch itself is simple and should be easy to SRU, with a test kernel to try.12:35
smb_tpelmargol, Would it be possible for you to have the kernel and lrm from proposed enabled and installed? Then I could provide a test kernel based on that12:37
elmargollrm?12:37
elmargolsmb_tp: if you point me to a build i chould try i can do that12:38
smb_tpelmargol, linux-restricted-modules (since the kernel from -proposed has a different abi it requires some dependant packages to be upgraded). Actually you could activate my ppa to get the right base and then replace the kernel later by a test version.12:40
smb_tpMy PPA is at https://launchpad.net/~stefan-bader-canonical/+archive/ppa12:40
elmargolsmb_tp: sure... give me the ppa and i try it12:44
elmargolsmb_tp: sure... give me the ppa and i try it12:44
smb_tpelmargol, The PPA is the one above 12:45
smb_tpas a base.12:45
elmargolplease repost I had a disconnect12:45
smb_tpupdated kernel will follow as soon as compiled12:45
smb_tpah ok12:45
smb_tp<smb_tp> My PPA is at https://launchpad.net/~stefan-bader-canonical/+archive/ppa12:45
elmargolsmb_tp: there are only linux* packages?12:48
smb_tpelmargol, correct. Just to get an updated Intrepid kernel12:48
elmargolok installing now12:48
smb_tpelmargol, It seems that patch is already in there.12:49
smb_tpCame in as a SRU for bug 33090212:49
ubot3Malone bug 330902 in linux "[Intrepid] Update kernel to Linux 2.6.27.18" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/33090212:49
smb_tpAh, sorry. That was fixed in stable 2.6.27.18, so try that. If that works it is already in progress of being released12:51
elmargolok i download the packages from your ppa and reboot12:51
smb_tpk12:51
elmargolsmb_tp: i monitor this a day and report back to you12:59
elmargolhave to go to work now12:59

heywood123hello all16:36
heywood123anyone here particularly familiar with hyperthreading?16:38
heywood123i'm trying to figure out the difference between passing "noht" to the kernel at boot time...16:43
heywood123and putting something like "echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online" in rc.local16:43
heywood123are these equivalent?16:44
anubhavheywood123:noht  is no longer supported16:51
heywood123anubhav: that's very useful -- thanks. do i have the syntax of the other command correct?16:52
heywood123if so i'll just do some testing with it on and off to see if it makes any difference16:52
elmargolsmb_tp: your kernel seems to fix my network problems... 16:54
anubhav heywood123:yup16:55
heywood123@anubhav: sweet. thanks for the clarification!16:55
smb_tpelmargol, Great. One less to go. Can you update the bug with your results (which kernel worked) and I do the rest?16:56
anubhav:)16:56
elmargolsmb_tp: i copy one more file to be sure and comment to the bug16:56
smb_tpOk, sure. Thanks16:57
elmargolit did only take 1,5 years in order to fix this problem xD16:57
smb_tpheh, quite a long time16:58
