[13:02] <bjoern_>  I have built the new 2.6.29 kernel, but the generated debian packages are too big. I used the following command: make-kpkg --initrd --revision atl1c binary
[14:28] <maxb> Hi, can someone point me to whereever it is defined that some wifi channels are not allowed for IBSS ?
[16:53] <hmh> Guys, I am the upstream kernel maintainer for the thinkpad-acpi driver, and users are asking me to produce patches for the ubuntu kernels for the testing releases...
[16:53] <hmh> which kernels are these, and what are their git trees?
[16:54] <hmh> That would allow me to release patches for ubuntu kernels as well as for mainline (since you guys already include some backports, including of thinkpad-acpi, the mainline patches often don't apply on top of regular ubuntu kernels)
[16:54] <mjg59> hmh: The git trees are all on kernel.ubuntu.com/git
[16:54] <hmh> mjg59: yeah, that I know :)
[16:54] <mjg59> Oh, right. karmic is the next release.
[16:55] <hmh> what I don't know, being no Ubuntu user, is which ones are the ones for the official kernel releases for the active ubuntu versions...
[16:55] <mjg59> (well, following the one that's out this month)
[16:55] <hmh> I suppose I could get the best effort/value ratio if I worked only with whatever is being used most by the power users, that would be whatever is your latest stable desktop version...
[16:55] <mjg59> hmh: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-jaunty.git;a=summary for the one that's in RC, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-karmic.git;a=summary for the new development cycle
[17:03] <hmh> and what is the stable one?
[17:04] <hmh> I will produce patches for the stable and RC.  Users of devel version can feel free to merge from my tree if they want.
[17:04] <mjg59> -intrepid is the current stable release
[17:06] <hmh> ok, thank you
[17:09] <hmh> mjg59: do you guys want to coordinate something re. thinkpad-acpi backports, or are you following what is upstream nowadays?
[17:10] <mjg59> hmh: I'm not one of the relevant guys any more :)
[17:12] <hmh> :)
[17:12] <hmh> any of them around?
[17:12]  * hmh finds https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelGitGuide and bookmarks that
[17:13] <mjg59> Given that next week's the release, I suspect they're having a quiet weekend in preparation
[17:13] <hmh> heh, I can relate to that
[17:18] <hmh> hrnf, git is taking forever to fetch intrepid, sending megabytes of crap too instead of just pulling data. I wonder WTF is it doing, that it can't find easily the merge point...
[17:19] <hmh> I have never seen it do that before!
[18:32] <zorbo> anyone alive in here?
[18:40] <dtchen> sure, but the people you seek may not be (weekend and all)
[20:55] <zorbo> :/
