| NoelJB | does anyone know what to install for linux headers if installing linux-image-virtual? there doesn't appear to be a matching headers .deb. thanks. | 03:23 |
|---|---|---|
| hyperair | it's linux-headers-virtual | 03:24 |
| NoelJB | hyperair, yes, I see that (now) via apt-cache, but it doesn't get built when following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 03:26 |
| hyperair | what's the command you used? | 03:26 |
| NoelJB | Looking at linux-headers-virtual, though, it tells you that linux-headers-server is the matching one. | 03:26 |
| NoelJB | hyperair, command? for what? | 03:26 |
| hyperair | for compiling kernels? | 03:27 |
| NoelJB | debian/rules updateconfigs; debian/rules clean; AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs | 03:27 |
| hyperair | ah | 03:27 |
| hyperair | hmmm | 03:27 |
| NoelJB | resulted in image-{virtual,server,generic}, headers-{generic,server} and the libc-dev | 03:28 |
| hyperair | ah then install the -server one | 03:28 |
| hyperair | the -virtual headers say that it's the same variant, right? | 03:28 |
| NoelJB | yes, from apt-cache show linux-headers-virtual: "This package will always depend on the latest kernel headers available for virtual machines (which are the same headers as for the server flavour)" | 03:29 |
| hyperair | yeah, so install the -server headers! | 03:29 |
| NoelJB | so that's the answer. I suppose I would have to build linux-meta to get the .deb. | 03:29 |
| NoelJB | hyperair, LOL I will. I hadn't found that when I asked :-) | 03:29 |
| NoelJB | hyperair, thanks :-) | 03:30 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, yeah, hyperair is correct. There is no specific -virt flavor kernel anymore. | 03:33 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, -server flavor kernel can support all the virt requirement such as kvm, xen | 03:34 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, interesting, when installed, it appears as 2.6.31.9-generic-pae | 03:45 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, so weird. | 04:05 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, so I thought, too. | 04:06 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, OK, something's odd. MY build of if has the -server inside the -virtual, but when I quickly installed via apt-get into a VM, it says it did virtual, but I see generic-pae. | 04:11 |
| NoelJB | unless generic-pae is what it does for 32-bit? hmmm. | 04:15 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, your machine is 32-bit or 64-bit? | 04:19 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, both. my host is 64 bit. my builder VM (for building packages I intend to use) is 64-bit. I was playing with a 32 bit Kubuntu VM, and wanted to see what (if any) benefit would come from the linux-virtual-image. answer: none. it blows up trying to boo it. | 04:20 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, so that may explain why it was -pae in one, and -server in the other. | 04:21 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, -pae is for 32bit machine extension, which supports more than 4G memory. | 04:22 |
| NoelJB | cooloney, I know what it is. :-) which is why it dawned on me that it might be because it was a 32 bit VM. In any event, I won't spend more time on it for now. | 04:24 |
| cooloney | NoelJB, yeah, i agree with you, 32bit VM -> -generic-pae, 64bit VM -> -server | 04:25 |

| xkr47 | hello, has anybody considered trying ck's BFS patches ? | 07:25 |
| rudl | hi there! can one tell me in a short maner what the debian.master - folder is for and how to deal with it- make-kpkg seems to have problems with it.. | 07:25 |
| evon | I was trying to build my kernel and got this error arch/i386/kernel/process.c:586: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov' can anyone help? | 07:26 |
| rudl | debian.master: what is that folder for, it seems to be new..?? | 07:29 |
| evon | you talking to me rudl? | 07:31 |
| rudl | anyone up and running in here? | 07:31 |

| evon | I am using this howto http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/How_to_include_FATX_support_in_a_regular_Linux_kernel | 07:32 |
| cooloney | rudl, since we add some flavors to support arm SoC, we keep debian.master as our master branch debian packaging control stuff | 07:32 |
| rudl | evon: no, not directly.. Sorry, have to leave for a meeting.. grrr | 07:32 |

| rudl | cooloney: so why do i get this stuff when cloning the git- repository for jaunty? | 07:52 |
| rudl | cooloney, okay, where do I find documentation about this directory, because make-kpkg fails because of the debian.master- directory | 08:22 |
| cooloney | rudl, sorry for the delay, i just checked the git log of debain.master directory of jaunty git tree | 08:23 |

| cooloney | rudl, my pleasure, actually the author of this change might be on vacation. | 08:30 |
| rudl | coolney, well: so debian is now "split" into debian and debian.master. | 08:59 |
| rudl | coolney, FYI: This doesn't compile with current make-kpkg. Caused by the sed -e 's/ debian//g' -e 's/\.deb//g' it tries to deal with '.master' - (my case: 'crypto.master') wich is obviously not there | 09:00 |

| rudl | cooloney, sorry, wron spelling, see my lines above to coolney | 09:04 |
| cooloney | rudl, no problem. i just ping the smb for that. i did not try make-kpkg at all | 09:06 |
| apw | rudl, the directory is an abstraction mechanism to allow branches to be made more easily | 09:07 |
| smb | cooloney, "the" smb??? ;-) | 09:07 |
| cooloney | smb, sorry, | 09:07 |
| apw | there may well be issues with make-kpkg, but you would need to make sure you have cleaned the tree correctly if you are using the git source | 09:08 |
| cooloney | smb, adding 'the' to an noun name word is one of my typical typo | 09:08 |
| smb | cooloney, No problem. I was mostly joking | 09:09 |
| rudl | apw, all fine with me, just trying to "simply" compile a kernel, as I need to get rid of IPV6, as fetchmail delivers to exim using ipv6 and ipv6 is down using ip6tables.. I've come a long way so far.. | 09:09 |
| smb | rudl, Actually one of the last security updates added an option to disable ipv6 | 09:10 |
| cooloney | smb, i am also trying to sync with thie debian split change to my Android debian packaging. | 09:11 |
| cooloney | smb, is there any wiki page about that? | 09:11 |
| smb | cooloney, Sorry not (yet) | 09:12 |
| rudl | smb, "option?" what kind of option- kernel- option? | 09:12 |

| rudl | smb, thanks for the shortcut, just seen what you mean- didn't know theese echo 1/0 > proc are called options | 09:16 |
| cooloney | legend2440, generally, we use fakeroot debian/rules build-binary | 09:17 |
| smb | rudl, Yeah, but unfortunately they are broken in Jaunty and the fix was a bit complex and had some issues (though I cant remember which) | 09:17 |
| smb | rudl, Ok, for the option you need to enable proposed for the moment | 09:18 |
| legend2440 | cooloney: thanks is there a good tutorial for that method? | 09:18 |
| rudl | smb, no problem so far, I prefer not to COMPILE what I don't need, had a hijacker on my system using ipv6 once- well, all was safe for ipv4 - and ipv6 was open like a "barn door" | 09:19 |
| rudl | smb, but for understanding: what do you mean "enable proposed"? I am allmost 100% autodidact so I am not familiar with such gramar | 09:20 |
| rudl | smb, you mean something like --enable-proposed? | 09:24 |
| rudl | Well, I'll consider both variants- cooloney- thanks for the hint to git- log. Didn't know it's that perfectly usefull. Shall be able to reproduce to original structure and compile with make-kpkg that way.. | 09:26 |

| apw | smb, hrm | 13:46 |
| smb | apw, My suspicion is that in the non-kms case (maybe even upstream) there is nothing that call acpi_video_register() after deferring it previously | 13:47 |
| apw | hmmm. | 13:48 |
| apw | smb, thats not sounding right is it | 13:50 |
| smb | No not really. | 13:50 |
| smb | Missed that somehow on the review | 13:50 |
| apw | pretty sure thats a pretty simple backport, and so likely bust upstream too ... hrm | 13:51 |
| smb | Well it is not that simple. There was much more code | 13:52 |
| apw | smb, actually not sure how this would trigger? | 13:52 |
| smb | A lot KMS stuff | 13:52 |
| smb | In the upstream patch it will as for: | 13:52 |
| smb | @@ -312,6 +370,11 @@ int intel_opregion_init(struct drm_device *dev) | 13:52 |
| smb | if (mboxes & MBOX_ACPI) { | 13:52 |
| smb | DRM_DEBUG("Public ACPI methods supported\n"); | 13:52 |
| smb | opregion->acpi = base + OPREGION_ACPI_OFFSET; | 13:52 |
| smb | + if (drm_core_check_feature(dev, DRIVER_MODESET)) { | 13:52 |
| smb | + intel_didl_outputs(dev); | 13:52 |
| smb | + if (!resume) | 13:52 |
| smb | + acpi_video_register(); | 13:53 |
| smb | + } | 13:53 |
| smb | but only with KMS I guess | 13:53 |
| smb | Though probably nobody does much without KMS as it is so neat | 13:53 |
| apw | smb, we can call it on module load, as it _may_ be called from acpi_video_init | 13:54 |
| apw | static int __init acpi_video_init(void) | 13:54 |
| apw | { | 13:54 |
| apw | if (intel_opregion_present()) | 13:54 |
| apw | return 0; | 13:54 |
| apw | return acpi_video_register(); | 13:54 |
| apw | } | 13:54 |
| apw | module_init(acpi_video_init); | 13:54 |
| apw | so we should only end up with it not there if we don't have the opregion | 13:54 |
| smb | That is the place to deffer it | 13:55 |
| smb | You get the problem if you have an opregion, then you do not register acpi video | 13:55 |
| apw | you mean there is no later, try again | 13:55 |
| smb | yep | 13:55 |
| smb | That other code if from the upstream patch | 13:55 |
| smb | In the backport I see no try again | 13:56 |
| apw | yep but htat code is specifically MODESET only | 13:56 |
| apw | so ... it got removed on backport as we don't have kms there | 13:56 |
| apw | which implies its bust in non kms mode in both ... hrm | 13:57 |
| smb | You might try with your i915 devs to disable kms and see whether you got backlight control | 13:57 |
| apw | yeah can do that. interesting that they managed to test this and have it work for them | 13:58 |
| apw | i guess they tested it didn't explode, but not that it worked | 13:58 |
| smb | Well actually I have not looked upwards whether it was changed again. | 13:59 |
| apw | bah grub has changed, no menu | 13:59 |
| apw | how do i get it back! | 13:59 |
| smb | set the hidden timeout to false in /etc/default/grub | 14:00 |
| apw | and if it won't boot without me fixing it, how do i do that | 14:00 |
| smb | despair | 14:00 |
| smb | maybe try to boot something external | 14:00 |
| * apw puts up the 'not acceptable' flag | 14:01 | |
| apw | s'ok, seems that holdiing down shift gets you the menu back | 14:04 |
| apw | smb, ok turning off modeset and i still have brightness control here | 14:05 |
| apw | so i guess i have h/w which has its 'opregions' initialised | 14:06 |
| apw | smb, do we have anything which fails the test? | 14:06 |
| smb | apw, I would need to check on the aspire. There is a follow up patch to unregister acpi_video on unload too | 14:07 |
| smb | Not that we currently need it as we do not do it | 14:07 |
| apw | crap, so fail all round | 14:07 |
| smb | I suppose it needs a few additions. But, depending on the effort, maybe better fix the new regression than to revert the initial patch as that was a crash | 14:10 |
| apw | perhaps yes. we need to figure out if this is flawed upstream generally too | 14:10 |
| apw | as for a fix, i think we need to redo the check after the opregions are enabled | 14:11 |
| smb | Yep, load it there and make sure we also unload it | 14:12 |
| smb | Hm, thinking twice, the Acer is a poor test as it never had a working acpi video | 14:12 |
| apw | indeed i am not at all sure why we need anything other than too only do the acpi thingy once and only once after the intel_opregion_init() | 14:12 |
| smb | The only complicated thing is that the intel driver is initialized much later | 14:14 |
| smb | apw, But somehow it feels that if you try to do that you need at least to do intel_didl_outputs, otherwise I see no other initialization | 14:17 |
| apw | + /* Must be done after probing outputs */ | 14:18 |
| apw | + intel_opregion_init(dev); | 14:18 |
| apw | we are expecting that to make the opregion appear | 14:18 |
| apw | but it looks like we should be expecting that to i | 14:18 |
| apw | do the init too | 14:18 |
| apw | smb, it does look like we simply should have + return acpi_video_register(); | 14:19 |
| apw | after that | 14:19 |
| apw | as we didn't do it before | 14:19 |
| smb | From the description the need to defer acpi_video_init is that you need to have the list of display devices populated. In the backport this is not done as far as I see | 14:23 |

| apw | hand | 14:38 |
| lool | ok thanks | 14:38 |
| mjg59 | apw: Hi | 14:41 |
| apw | mjg59, just looking at this fix for the Intel crashes, when the opregion is not initialised and you call acpi methods on it | 14:41 |
| apw | and noting that we end up never registering acpi in non KMS mode ... trying to work out if thats soluable | 14:42 |
| apw | the patch in 74a365b3f354fafc537efa5867deb7a9fadbfe27 | 14:42 |
| mjg59 | You need the connector list to populate DIDL, and that#s only available with KMS | 14:44 |
| apw | and without KMS that init comes from the X server one presumes | 14:44 |
| mjg59 | Sorry for typing - broke my arm yesterday, still getting used to it | 14:44 |
| apw | oh no! ouch | 14:44 |
| mjg59 | Right, and X has no way to pass that info | 14:45 |
| apw | so we'd need to intuit it later somehow | 14:45 |
| apw | we are seing regressions due to that change, in a backport to non-kms | 14:46 |
| lool | is there an easy way to build i386 kernel .debs on amd64? | 14:46 |
| smb | lool, create a linux32 chroot | 14:46 |
| lool | hmm ok | 14:46 |
| lool | thanks | 14:46 |
| apw | mjg59, so it seems that 'most' intel hardware that 'requires' it either doesn't really require it, or is being initialised before hand | 14:47 |
| apw | i wonder if there is any way to tell either way, as not initialising acpi blindly seems to regress for a number of platforms | 14:48 |
| lool | The upstream Makefile will properly pass -m32 if compiling a 32 bits kernel on amd64 | 14:51 |
| apw | lool but to get it compiled the same way, its much safer to do it the same as the buildds | 14:52 |
| apw | making the chroot is pretty cheap | 14:52 |
| lool | Well I'd have to create the chroot, install bdeps again, setup ccache again... and I'm lazy :-) | 14:53 |
| lool | If this can work for cross-compiling ARM packages, it should work for x86-32 right? | 14:53 |
| lool | Since it's just for a test kernel for my test machines and for testers well I guess it's not a big risk I guess | 14:54 |
| apw | perhaps so indeed | 14:54 |
| mjg59 | apw: Not that I know of | 14:59 |

| apw | + tristate "FATX fs support (DANGEROUS)" | 16:46 |
| apw | + depends on EXPERIMENTAL && BROKEN && !LBD | 16:46 |
| apw | its not even guarenteed you'd be able to do it with the patch it seems | 16:47 |
| mjg59 | evon: If you're talking about x-box DVDs, no | 16:47 |
| mjg59 | They can only be read with an actual xbox DVD drive | 16:47 |
| apw | mjg59, interesting, some kind of h/w drm'y poop? | 16:48 |
| evon | mjg59: no i'm talkin about usb's with fatx FS and HD with fatx FS | 16:48 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 16:48 |
| mjg59 | evon: How do you have a fatx hard drive? | 16:48 |
| * apw shudders | 16:48 | |
| evon | mjg59: from the xbox | 16:48 |
| mjg59 | apw: There's two DVD TOCs - the normal one just gives a small image with a video telling you to put it in an xbox. There's a command that needs to be sent to the drive firmware to get it to read the real TOC | 16:49 |
| mjg59 | evon: Ah | 16:49 |
| evon | mjg59: so would i be able to? | 16:49 |
| apw | mjg59, heh now that is plain mean | 16:49 |
| mjg59 | evon: In theory | 16:49 |
| Kano | hi, when can we expect rc9 based kernel | 16:49 |
| evon | ok cool | 16:49 |
| evon | is 2.6.15 a good kernel to use? the latest xbox patch offered is for that version | 16:50 |
| apw | Kano, when its been tested | 16:50 |
| Kano | well intel without kms is broken,but luckly u uses it | 16:51 |
| apw | evon, i'd not define anything that old as good in general | 16:51 |
| Kano | cjwatson: did you optmize your initramfs code | 16:51 |
| apw | intel without kms is broken on 2.6.31-rc9? on what hardware? | 16:51 |
| evon | apw: why is that? my intention is only to have that kernel as an option my grub. not to use it all the time | 16:52 |
| Kano | apw: on vt switch on all i think, but can only test q45 | 16:52 |
| apw | evon, what is your ubuntu release | 16:52 |
| Kano | vt switch or X shutdown | 16:52 |
| evon | mint based on jaunty | 16:53 |
| apw | evon, no idea if you'll be able to boot with such an old kernel on that userspace, thats a major delta | 16:53 |
| evon | oh i c. So i would have to get an old version of ubuntu or something to get this to work? | 16:53 |
| apw | you might have to yes, worth trying it first | 16:54 |
| apw | you checked there are no userspace tools to read fatx? | 16:54 |
| evon | nope. I have been looking for days | 16:55 |
| Kano | cjwatson: http://paste.debian.net/45952/ | 16:56 |
| Kano | cjwatson: a) the modprobe check is absolutely useless as you can modprobe every module even without hardware | 16:56 |
| Kano | cjwatson: b) if you want to test for hardware you can check the loaded modules after udev | 16:57 |
| Kano | cjwatson: the current result of your code was that intel-agp and i915 is loaded on every system and FB=kms | 16:57 |
| apw | evon, it seems odd that xbox support stopped at 2.6.16 ... kinda implies they found another way | 16:58 |
| evon | apw: I've haven't come across anything. if you do please let me know | 17:01 |
| evon | apw: i've google searched all over for fatx support linux but i've come up with no way of fixing the prob. and there are many others with no solutions either | 17:03 |
| apw | evon, might be worth trying to ask the original authors of the patch what happened to it | 17:04 |
| evon | apw: ok | 17:05 |
| karl86 | hi guys, after my machine has been running for a certain amount of time it seems to loose the ability to recognise when a cd is in the drive. Is there something I can restart (other than the machine) to get it back? | 20:09 |

| johanbr | now that ipv6 is built-in (not a module), what's the recommended way of disabling ipv6? | 21:41 |
| johanbr | oh... /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 I guess | 21:42 |
