SlickT10hello all: I have a unique problem, one that almost no one on any channel will respond to me about. Instead of reiterating it here, i have a question in launchpad: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/81460 . At the advice of some that was here last time, I made it a bug and added info. I need to resolve this issue soon. I have expirence with embeded system work and I am not afraid to build things from scratch or even do mos03:54
SlickT10t the work, but I need some guidence where to go next. 03:54
SlickT10If nothing else, I would at least like to talk to one person that knows this part of the kernel, I would love to get a reference to someone that I can talk to directly03:57
dtcheni presume you've asked on the linux-usb mailing list? have you tried the 2.6.31-rc7 and daily mainline builds?03:57
dtchenerr, 2.6.31-rc8*03:57
dtcheni.e., reproduce it in a vanilla kernel and take it upstream to bugzilla.kernel.org and lkml if necessary03:58
SlickT10Ive tried karmic04:00
dtcheni'm referring to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.31-rc8/ and http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/ , respectively04:01
SlickT10no04:01
SlickT10that sounds like a good next step04:02
SlickT10i had a feeling this may go all the way back to the kernel, because it is the same behavior i got using pentoo04:03
SlickT10and backtrack 4 (a ubuntu derivative)04:03
SlickT10dtchen, thanks, this was the redirection I needed. I wasn't certain if I should take this upstream or not04:07
dtchenSlickT10: np04:11
SlickT10I was just talking to dtchen, but hes gone now. When booting up the rc8 kernel, it freezes on the audio driver init (I think). this keeps me from debugging the real problem. Is there a way to slow how fast the scrolling happens, or how do i skip a module?04:38
SlickT10Hmm, no answer?04:53
SlickT10no way to prevent sound from being initiated>04:53
ScottK!weekend | SlickT1004:53
ubot3SlickT10: It's a weekend.  Often on weekends, the paid developers, and a lot of the community, may not be around to answer your question.  Please be patient, wait longer than you normally would, or try again during the working week.04:53
ScottKIt's not actually the weekend, but it's nightime for pretty much all the kernel team.04:54
SlickT10hmm04:54
SlickT10Too bad :) I cant work on this during the day since Im at work then :)04:54
SlickT10thanks, going for reboot again04:55
peepsalotshortly after grub begins to load my kernel, I get a message "grep: /proc/cmdline: No such file or directory"05:18
peepsalotis this a bug?05:18
peepsalotonce the system is booted, I can see that this file exists05:20
peepsalothmm, looks like this maybe this is more of a grub than a kernel issue05:20

nick[0]on a ICH4-M laptop which enabling HPET through clocksource=hpet causes resume from S3 hangs, what can I do to reduce interrupts beyond NO_HZ=Y?09:50
nick[0]can lapic be used as a more efficient clocksource than acpi-pm?  Will acpi-pm use either the HPET or the lapic (which my BIOS disables...I haven't tried forcing it yet)09:50
nick[0]eh, did I need to identify to gain voice?09:53
jk-anyone seeing weirdness with signals on karmic?10:51
jk-i appear not to be able to kill processes on a different pty10:53
jk-seems like some processes aren't receiving SIGCHLD10:53
jk-.. when they don't have a pty10:54
jk-[jk@pororo ~]$ ssh briq true10:54
jk-<waits forever>10:55
jk-hmm, 'ssh -t briq true' also hangs, so it's not just when there's not pty10:56
jk-looks like this only happens for ssh sessions11:45
rtgogra, would you follow up on bug #418265 ?15:50
ubot3Malone bug 418265 in linux-fsl-imx51 "Warning in ehci-hcd.c:911 on kernel 2.6.31-5-imx51" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41826515:50
ogrartg, can be closed, GrueMaster told me he will file a fresh bug that actually matches the discussion in there15:51
ograthe summary and description surely dont match the actual content anymore15:52
rtgogra, invalid then?15:52
ograyeah, 2.6.31-5-imx51 was never a valid kernel15:52
loolrtg: FYI UbuntuSpec: is just like Bug: but for ubuntu blueprints17:08
rtglool, good to know. I'm not much of a wiki expert17:09

Q-FUNKogasawara: I think that we just experienced the placebo syndrome. ;)23:23
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: I'm soooo sorry about that23:24
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: I just realized what happened right when you responded :(23:24
Q-FUNKit's ok23:24
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: I actually have to ask one of the other kernel guys to kick off the build for me and I just spaced it and gave them the wrong commit the first time23:25
Q-FUNKby accident, we just might be confirming Ingo's doubts.23:25
Q-FUNKah23:25
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: yup, so it might work well in the end23:25
Q-FUNKogasawara: hopefully :) we'd still have to narrow down the actual cause, after isolating the exact commit.23:26
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: right23:26
Q-FUNKhopefully, Al Viro and Ingo Molnar will chip in and help us on this one.23:27
ogasawaraQ-FUNK: I'd hope so23:27
