| ppurka | hi all.. i want to know whether it is possible to get the ubuntu-specific kernel patches for 2.6.30 | 03:28 |
|---|---|---|
| dhendrix | hey everyone... i'm trying to use make-kpkg to package kernels, but I keep getting annoying interactive warning messages when I try to install a fresh kernel package. I've set "do_initrd = yes", "warn_initrd = no", "clobber_modules = yes", and "silent_modules = yes" but I still get warnings about installing an initrd kernel and writing over an old /lib/modules/$version directory. | 04:13 |
| dhendrix | has anyone else seen this? | 04:13 |

| maxb | Hi, the Karmic ABI 10 kernel results in gnome-power-manager not being able to set/get laptop panel brightness - Acer Aspire One, Intel graphics - any thoughts on what I need to put in a useful bug report? | 09:33 |
| smb | maxb, It would be interesting to see what is in (and under) /sys/class/brightness. I am not really sure what caused that ever to work. The acpi interface seems not to work and the acer-wmi is supposed not to... | 09:42 |
| maxb | Actually it works pretty horridly without KMS also | 09:49 |
| maxb | But KMS makes it actually give errors, rather than just behaving bizarrely, so something has changed | 09:49 |
| smb | I know. From the 1000 (not really but felt) levels the OSD suggested in Jaunty, only the first 7 or 9 were real. | 09:51 |
| smb | Hm, errors in dmesg? | 09:51 |
| maxb | And I don't seem to *have* a /sys/class/brightness ! | 09:51 |
| maxb | I'm booted without KMS at the moment, I'll comb dmesg after my next reboot. | 09:52 |
| smb | That is what I would expect. With all the experience with the aa1 it seems it does most things internally in the hw | 09:52 |
| maxb | But KMS itself seems to be working fine, and VT switching is so slick now :-) | 09:52 |
| smb | True :) | 09:53 |
| smb | I currently booted an 8.9 kernel with kms and can change the brightness with the hotkeys, but without any osd feedback | 09:54 |
| mvo | hello. I was wondering if anyone if familar with "crash" and knows if there is a way to get a backtrace without the linux-image-debug package? | 10:00 |
| smb | mvo, I would not say I am familiar with crash, so I cannot say whether it will do anything without files with symbol information. But in general a backtrace of a kernel stack without cannot tell which function name an address belongs to. And that is unlikely useful | 10:06 |
| mvo | smb: thanks, it was a small hope I had, the debug pakage is just so huge | 10:17 |
| smb | mvo, If you compile locally, you could take the vmlinux produced there | 10:17 |
| mdz | l-r-m is no longer, right? | 12:08 |
| asac | during boot and in syslog i am seeing: [69908.676578] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 | 12:28 |
| asac | is that known? bugid? | 12:28 |
| * asac does not have a floppy drive | 12:28 | |
| amitk | mdz: correct. | 12:42 |
| mvo | asac: I see this as well (and I have no floopy) - IIRC it was a devicekit issue and is already reported | 12:45 |
| asac | mvo: hmm. ok. but that happens really early during boot | 12:46 |
| asac | something like "testing for hardware ..." ... | 12:46 |
| asac | and then that takes ages and it spits out those messages | 12:47 |
| mvo | oh | 12:55 |
| mvo | asac: maybe its something else then | 12:55 |
| maxb | If killing devkit-disks-daemon stops it, it's likely the already reported issue | 13:43 |

| rtg | apw: are you familiar with the grub2 --no-floppy borkage? | 19:57 |
| apw | rtg no not heard anything about that | 20:06 |
| apw | where is that being discussed | 20:06 |
| maxb | Since updating to karmic abi 10, on some boots intermittently, my touchpad intermittently gets reported as a 'PS/2 Synaptics TouchPad' instead of a 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad', causing hal to miscategorise it as a mouse.... any thoughts on what to dig into? | 20:28 |
| rtg | maxb: IIRC there was a reset patch, or perhaps an unusual device patch for that. | 20:29 |
| rtg | that was in Jaunty, so it ought to still be in Karmic | 20:30 |
| maxb | This problem is new in karmic abi 10 | 20:37 |
| rtg | maxb: hmm, almost all of the work from ABI 9 to 10 was config stuff. Is there some config option that has disappeared or changed? | 20:40 |
| apw | rtg as i recall the configs were mostly unchanged | 21:08 |
| rtg | apw: that was my observation as well | 21:08 |
| JFo | ogasawara, thanks for being willing to guide me. I'll pester you after I have read up more on the information you gave me :-) | 21:23 |
| ogasawara | JFo: great, thanks for wanting to help! | 21:23 |
| JFo | no problem | 21:23 |
