| apw | smb, you have a thinkpad with hardy, can you check if the thinkpad/thinkvantage key produces an X keysym. using xev you should see that key produce XF86Launch1 | 12:17 |
| apw | all, today is one of our regular kernel bug days ... come play with our fun bugs, free erm karma to those who help :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/BugDay/20090512 | 12:25 |
| smb | Just returned | 13:19 |
| smb | apw, the key does not produce events by default | 13:19 |
| smb | apw, The problem, iirc, is that the acpi events arrive but are mapped to a keyboard key that is normally not existent (with fakekey) So the keyboard driver ignores is | 13:20 |
| smb | it | 13:20 |
| apw | smb, ok so that is officially still broken in hardy | 13:42 |
| smb | apw, Yeah, and it actually was some deliberate change from upstream to ignore non-existent keys. This is where fakekey has its limit and the drivers in general should use input-events | 13:43 |
| smb | But thats probably a too big change for hardy | 13:43 |
| apw | yeah ... fair enough ... | 13:43 |
| andresmujica | morning | 15:07 |
| andresmujica | we need a topic update.. | 15:07 |
| === amitk_ changed the topic of #ubuntu-kernel to: "KERNEL BUG DAY 12-May-2009 | Ubuntu kernel development discussion ONLY | Kernel Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam | Latest news: Released 2.6.28 kernel for Jaunty/9.04. | Kernel git trees: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git | Latest kernel upload: 2.6.28-12.43 based on 2.6.28.10 final" | ||

| apw | smb, on this thinkpad, does the command 'setkeycodes e073 148' sort out your thinkpad key thing? so its seen in Xev ? | 15:26 |
| smb | apw, confirmed | 15:27 |
| apw | smb so we have a work around for hardy and intrepid | 15:27 |
| apw | no point in updating those two to fix something we have a simple work around for imo | 15:28 |
| smb | apw, Yeah, as it is long ago I am not sure I remember correctly, there had been some notes that this keycode you set might be in use by another key. But in general, yes | 15:29 |
| apw | when you say its visible, is it visible carrying the XF86Launch1 key symbol? | 15:29 |
| apw | smb, ^^ | 15:30 |
| smb | Hm, don't see it: | 15:32 |
| smb | KeyPress event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x4800001, | 15:32 |
| smb | root 0x88, subw 0x0, time 25518768, (110,79), root:(1400,134), | 15:32 |
| smb | state 0x0, keycode 159 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, | 15:32 |
| smb | XLookupString gives 0 bytes: | 15:32 |
| smb | XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: | 15:32 |
| smb | XFilterEvent returns: False | 15:32 |
| apw | smb, what does 'xmodmap -pk | grep Launch1' say | 15:34 |
| smb | "" | 15:34 |
| apw | hrm | 15:35 |
| * apw notes that the current rate he will finish his 20 bug day bugs by about 2 am | 15:48 | |
| apw | how are other people doing? | 15:48 |
| smb | apw, similar | 15:50 |
| * apw has reached 6 after 8 hours ... not good | 15:51 | |
| apw | ok 7 hours | 15:51 |
| * apw actually gets to the bottom of his list of bugs | 17:44 | |
| * apw pokes a couple of community ones for 'fun' | 17:44 | |
| smb_tp | apw, Hrmpf, how did you do that? | 17:57 |
| apw | smb_tp, once you get to the Incompletes if they have been asked for feedback like a year ago by leann i felt happy closing them asking for a reopen if it stille xisted | 18:00 |
| apw | and most of my incompletes were like that | 18:01 |
| apw | the highs near killed me | 18:01 |
| smb_tp | maybe I should jump to the incompletes and get back to the highs later... | 18:01 |

| devel0 | hi , i have a small problem related to initrd and I was hpoing someone could shed some light | 18:59 |
| devel0 | Im looking to change the usplash theme but I cant exactly do an update initramfs -d becauyse I have separated ubuntu because im doing a pxe boot | 19:00 |
| devel0 | when I say separated | 19:00 |
| devel0 | I mean one part is vmlinuz and initrd , the other part is a squashfs file downloaded via http | 19:00 |
| devel0 | when I simply replace the .so file , ubuntu moans at boot up that it cant find a usplash theme | 19:01 |
| devel0 | that will work with my resol | 19:01 |
| devel0 | however with the default .so file , it doesnt complain | 19:01 |
| devel0 | I changed the file , repacked initrd with cpio and gzip , but still im missing something to make it all work | 19:01 |
| devel0 | any ideas someone ? | 19:01 |
| devel0 | please ? :O | 19:02 |
| sladen | names | 19:03 |
| devel0 | filenames you mean ? | 19:04 |
| sladen | devel0: the /etc/alternatives/usplash-artwork.so symlink is used to select which .so to pack into the initramfs cpoio | 19:04 |
| devel0 | I was aware of that but why cant i just have the default usplash-artwork.so in /usr/lib/usplash/ ? | 19:04 |
| sladen | I'm stil not completely following the problem, can you try explaining it in a different way (what's "resol") ? | 19:06 |
| sladen | btw, for future reference, usplash doesn't have anything to do with the kernel. It runs entirely in userspace | 19:07 |
| devel0 | yeah i know , i just thought that maybe since this is a boot issue I could get a helping hand from you guys | 19:07 |
| devel0 | basically I have initrd.gz outside the distro and i use pxe to boot it with vmlinuz (ubuntu's kernel), then I have a squashfs file which contains the root filesystem | 19:08 |
| devel0 | I cant do an update-initramfs on my initrd.gz file , I can only pack it again with cpio and gzip | 19:08 |
| devel0 | or maybe I can via the live boot | 19:08 |
| devel0 | hmmm | 19:08 |
| devel0 | brb | 19:08 |
| devel0 | :D | 19:08 |

| layer8 | hi there | 19:46 |
| layer8 | can someone help me with a self compiled kernel? i have an error like "sata link down" during boot | 19:47 |
| devel0 | sladen | 19:48 |
| devel0 | I cant get round it | 19:48 |
| devel0 | I was wondering if you could help | 19:48 |
| devel0 | is there someone that can explain what integration the usplash .so file has with the initrd archive ? | 19:48 |
| devel0 | beyond the fact that it sits inside it | 19:48 |
| layer8 | hello? | 19:56 |
| layer8 | noone here, who can help me? | 19:57 |
| sladen | devel0: no integration, other than getting copied in there by /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/usplash | 20:09 |
| sladen | devel0: initramfs is flexible enough that the same initramfs should do you for PXE and non-PXE boot IIRC. | 20:09 |
| devel0 | im boggled as to why it complains only by replacing the .so | 20:10 |
| sladen | devel0: best place to ask would be the LTSP / Edubuntu people | 20:10 |
| devel0 | when i replace the .so file , i get a failed to init screen init thingy | 20:10 |
| devel0 | oh | 20:10 |
| sladen | devel0: where did you get this new .so from? | 20:10 |
| devel0 | i tried many | 20:12 |
| devel0 | i tried kubuntus for example | 20:12 |
| devel0 | edubuntus , and a few others | 20:12 |
| devel0 | even custom ones from the net | 20:12 |
| devel0 | i dont get it , seriously im puzzled , i just went through the script in the initramfs tools that is used to copy usplash | 20:12 |
| devel0 | I do the same thing but manually | 20:12 |
| devel0 | this is crazy :) | 20:12 |
| sladen | remember that the theme is a loadable executable file. Is it built to the same version as the usplash itself. | 20:16 |
| sladen | this is why my query about "where did you get it" | 20:16 |
| sladen | exactly how did you install this other usplash theme? | 20:16 |
| devel0 | omg does the so file have to match the libusplash.so ver ? | 20:16 |
| sladen | did you compile it yourself. Does it work with the test script | 20:17 |
| sladen | devel0: uh huh. | 20:17 |
| devel0 | brb :) | 20:17 |
| devel0 | is there a way to know what ver was used to build an so ? | 20:17 |
| sladen | dpkg -l | grep usplash | 20:18 |
| sladen | and apt-cache show usplash-theme-ubuntu says that it depends (it's compiled for) usplash (>= 0.5.30) | 20:19 |
| devel0 | im trying something i didnt before | 20:19 |
| devel0 | the simplest of things | 20:19 |
| devel0 | making the so executable | 20:19 |
| devel0 | hoping it might work | 20:19 |
| devel0 | im not too sure the usplash version makes much of a difference | 20:20 |
| devel0 | ok making the file exec didnt work | 20:21 |
| devel0 | leme sync the versions | 20:21 |
| sladen | *blinks* | 20:21 |
| sladen | devel0: put simply if usplash and the library (theme) it is dlopening are not speaking the same language (the same ABI) then it's not going to work | 20:22 |
| sladen | devel0: just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-artwork-usplash if you want something else | 20:23 |
| devel0 | just recompiled an .so | 20:27 |
| devel0 | worked like a charm | 20:27 |
| devel0 | :) | 20:27 |
| devel0 | How can I thank you ? | 20:27 |
| * devel0 dances | 20:28 | |
| vertix | anybody knows about boot sequence in a mixed IDE/SCSI situation at the point where root filesystem is loaded? | 22:38 |
| vertix | mounted that was | 22:38 |
| vertix | at least it is not insane as on #ubuntu | 22:39 |
| vertix | but looks quiet like in a grave | 22:39 |
| vertix | anybody alive here? | 22:39 |
| vertix | maaaaan, linux is a trip, i tellya | 22:39 |
| vertix | oki doki | 22:40 |
| devel0 | yeah i know what you mean | 22:50 |
| devel0 | when you say "linux is a trip" | 22:50 |
| devel0 | :D | 22:50 |
| devel0 | sorry I cant help | 22:50 |
