Ngis it possible/likely that 2.6.30 is not switching off as much hardware for S3 suspend as 2.6.$jaunty was?09:35
NgI suspended last night with 30 minutes of runtime left and my laptop was off this morning09:35
NgI'm pretty sure that previously that would have been plenty09:35
Kanohi apw , i prepared a little patch for the double ids already09:49
Kanoapw: http://kanotix.com/files/kernel/unused-patches/2.6.30-disable-some-rt2500usb-ids.patch09:50
Kanoif you want to be able to compile fglrx with some tricks you need09:50
Kanohttp://kanotix.com/files/kernel/unused-patches/2.6.30-export-flush_tlb_page.patch09:50
smbNg, It might be possible. You could do the suspend/resume tests which have one testcase that verifies power consumption to verify this further...09:51
Ngsmb: oh interesting09:51
Ngpowertop suggests that running power consumption is the same or slightly less than jaunty09:52
Ngbut I don't exactly have hard numbers for how much power was used while suspended09:52
Kanofor fglrx again is that patch: http://kanotix.com/files/kernel/unused-patches/2.6.29-ubuntu-copy-headers-for-fglrx.patch09:52
Kanothen the needed patch is MUCH smaller09:53
smbNg, the script would be in /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/suspend_test It would not be impossible to consume less power running but miss to power down something on suspend09:54
Kanoi still need to create a patch to support fritz usb draft-n, maybe later...09:54
Ngsmb: yeah that's what I figured. I think I know someone running equivalent hardware on jaunty, so I'll try to get some comparison figures. thanks :)09:55
smbNg, But to have more confidence it likely would require to compare a few runs on both. I sometimes got quite a variation on the same hardware on several runs09:56
Ngsmb: ok10:00
lamalexhow do i check out the jaunty kernel repo? whats the clone url, its not shown in gitweb and im having trouble guessing it13:19
=== Sarvatt_ is now known as Sarvatt
smblamalex, git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-jaunty.git13:20
lamalexhm why isnt that working for me..13:21
lamalexah, because im an idiot13:21
lamalexive been typing http://. 13:22
lamalexI wish I could say it was morning and i just needed my coffee, but its after 2pm13:22
lamalexmaybe I can say I haven't had lunch and im really hungry13:22
smblamalex, Or maybe it is just Monday ;-)13:23
lamalexthat works for me13:25
apwsmb, anyone,  any of you heard of karmic kernels panicing with splash on boot on jaunty userspace (32bit)14:31
smbHm, I feel like I heard of it, but I believe only from walking over the list with you14:32
apwsmb ... yeah i feel it may be true.  cirtainly happening on my crashy laptop right now14:33
smbapw, awkward to debug... :/14:37
amitkapw, how would I go about looking at history of a file that is no longer present in the index? IOW, the file existed, but doesn't anymore. So 'git log foo.c' doesn't work.15:19
smbamitk, might "git log --follow -- foo.c" work?15:26
amitksmb: yup, that does it. Thanks15:28
apwthe -- is the key ther15:29
apwas the file is definatly a file if it appears after the --15:29
amitkso --follow is the inverse operation of git format-patch -M, I guess.15:30
smbHm, would that not be "similar"? As both follow/detect renames15:32
amitksmb: yes and no. patches created with 'git format-patch -M' will need to be tracked with 'git log --follow' to list the file renames.15:34
amitkso they are inverse operations in that sense, but I see what you mean.15:34
Keybukdid we lose the ftrace open patch?16:03
CarlFKnot to be confused with the mentioned panic, I have my own: http://dpaste.com/52812/ [ 7776.273727] kernel BUG at /build/buildd/linux-2.6.28/net/core/skbuff.c:124!16:07
* Keybuk tosses a random kernel patch into a PPA18:57
Keybukif it works, it should make the populate_rootfs call async18:59
Keybukof course, that's a very big if :p18:59
cr3hi folks, where can I find the kernel arguments which were passed when booting? I vaguely remember that information being available somewhere under /proc or somesuch19:52
cr3aha! nevermind, it was in /proc/cmdline... I was looking for *arg*19:52
invisibillGreetings ubuntu kernel devs:  I'm using "2.6.28-3-rt #12-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT Fri Apr 17 10:09:12 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux" kernel but it keeps freezing my fresh install of jaunty during any file download.  I'm tracking this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1145879 and want to upgrade to the 2.6.30rc8 20:46
invisibillIs there a repo I can add to apt for this.  Or should I just download directly from the site? 20:47
apwinvisibill, the mainline kernels can be gotten from the mainline kernels archive21:23
apwsee this url for instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds21:23
invisibillthanks apw.  I'll try downloading the image file and installing it with dpkg.21:26
Nggood work on the grub2 packaging, upgrade worked fine here :)23:05
Kanowell i use grub2 for ages now ;)23:15
Kanobest remove the old menu.lst as soon as possible, because os prober from other distros will find otherwise outdated entries23:16
