| lamont | NCommander: you around? | 02:14 |
|---|---|---|
| lamont | nm | 02:15 |
| NCommander | lamont, yes I am | 02:17 |
| NCommander | lamont, was there something I could have helped you with? | 02:22 |
| * NCommander returns to hitting the parisc kernel with a stick | 02:28 | |
| lamont | NCommander: google sufficed | 02:29 |
| NCommander | lamont, ah, BTW, if you have some time, I have an outstanding RT ticket w.r.t. to the ports-kernel and zinc that would be lovely to be taken care of soonish | 02:29 |
| * NCommander is currently fighting with the hppa config files | 02:29 | |
| lamont | NCommander: I assume that ticket has a list of which devs should be in the porters group, yes? | 02:34 |
| * NCommander thinks so | 02:34 | |
| NCommander | lamont, rt #34122 | 02:36 |
| NCommander | lamont, and no I didn't, but its currently myself, and themuso (and probably one or two other people who I'm unsure if they have zinc accounts) | 02:37 |
| * NCommander notes as soon as the next kernel upload goes, ia64 LiveCDs should be fixed | 02:40 | |
| lamont | kewl | 04:47 |
| lamont | NCommander: and would be nice to get a custom jaunty livecd iso for ia64 somewhere... | 04:47 |
| NCommander | lamont, want one? | 04:51 |
| NCommander | lamont, *can build one for you fairly easily-ish* | 04:51 |
| lamont | I have a user | 04:51 |
| lamont | either live or alternate, don't care which, actually | 04:51 |
| NCommander | lamont, feel like sponsoring some SRUs to fix the ports kernel? | 04:51 |
| NCommander | lamont, the kernel in jaunty badly hosed w.r.t. to depends, I would need three or four SRUs to fix it | 04:52 |
| NCommander | Alternative, we can throw sanity to the wind, and build the squashfs out of the karmic kernel which is close to fixed. | 04:52 |
| * NCommander notes ubuntu-desktop is fairly hosed in jaunty; karmic alpha 1 probably would be happier :-/ | 04:53 | |
| lamont | heh. truthfully, I don't care too much if it's a data-center built iso... :-) | 04:53 |
| NCommander | lamont, well, fixing jaunty would be painful, the kernel, kernel-meta, ubuntu-desktop, and probably a few other packages need SRUing | 04:54 |
| * NCommander lacks the hardware :-/ | 04:54 | |
| lamont | ah, ok. | 04:55 |
| lamont | how about source + cookbook? | 04:55 |
| NCommander | lamont, I have root access to an ia64 at HP, so I can run the livecd builds | 04:55 |
| NCommander | lamont, I doubt I could get you a working base system. When I say the kernel is hosed, I mean uninstallable | 04:55 |
| NCommander | I wasn't really planning to fix karmic :-/ | 04:55 |
| NCommander | s/karmic/jaunty/g | 04:55 |
| * NCommander thinks | 04:56 | |
| * NCommander looks to see if hardy's kernel lines up with what the seeds think | 04:57 | |
| NCommander | How about a Hardy liveCD? | 04:57 |
| NCommander | The kernel and the seeds agree on what is sane | 04:57 |
| NCommander | I can build the remaining ia64 packages that need fixing in my PPA | 04:58 |
| lamont | actually, that'd be cool | 05:02 |
| NCommander | lamont, I'm trying to figure out why I know these | 05:05 |
| NCommander | lamont, what variant do you want, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu? | 05:05 |
| lamont | there's something other than ubuntu? :-D | 05:06 |
| NCommander | Well, it looks like most of ubuntu-desktop is there | 05:06 |
| lamont | I think I got kubuntu CDs once... still haven't run it ever though | 05:06 |
| * NCommander is looking at the FTBFS list | 05:06 | |
| NCommander | Well, I'm judging which desktop package is "least broken" | 05:06 |
| NCommander | When was the last time we tried to build an ia64-anything :-) | 05:07 |
| lamont | 7.10 | 05:07 |
| lamont | 7.12 is when I quit HP | 05:07 |
| NCommander | ubuntu-desktop IS installable on ia64 | 05:07 |
| NCommander | Lets find out if we can build the squashfs | 05:08 |
| NCommander | If we can, we'll take a 7.10 liveCD, take out its rootfs, put in the hardy one, and blamo | 05:08 |
| lamont | well, I don't remember if 7.10 actually _worked_ mind you... | 05:08 |
| NCommander | lamont, best get out of your ia64 and test :-) | 05:08 |
| NCommander | But hardy looking fairly happy on ia64 | 05:08 |
| NCommander | At least I think I can build the rootfs, so if the kernel is bootable (and ubiquity works), your in business | 05:09 |
| lamont | as far as running: hardy: +1, intrepid: runs fine with hardy-kernel+intrepid-user, jaunty: runs fine (thanks NCommander ) | 05:09 |
| lamont | yeah - I testing ia64 is easy at the house. testing hppa is almost as easy. | 05:09 |
| * NCommander notes alternates are fairly difficult to build, so if I can get a liveCD to build, its MUCH easier | 05:10 | |
| NCommander | Paradoxially, the liveCDs are a *lot* simpler than the alternates | 05:11 |
| NCommander | Hrm, we build an ia64 server CD | 05:12 |
| NCommander | (for Hardy) | 05:12 |
| NCommander | *built | 05:12 |
| NCommander | lamont, that might be saner to have him use that, then install ubuntu-cd | 05:12 |
| lamont | yeah | 05:13 |
| NCommander | s/ubuntu-cd/ubuntu-desktop | 05:13 |
| lamont | anyway, I'm told it's bedtime | 05:13 |
| NCommander | or hop on anitmonthy and do a daily Hardy build :-) | 05:13 |
| NCommander | lamont, have a good night | 05:13 |
