elopssI really need help guys00:00
elopss:(00:00
elopssnorelatime doesnt get passed to the kernel, it just cancels out any relatime in the mount command00:06
elopssso all new linux kernels are going to do this?00:07
elopssi just wrote my own mounter to pass strictatime, that works.. (mount.nfs wont pass it to the kernel)00:17

Keybukapw: "There's now ext4 support for GRUB, and Kernel Mode Setting (KMS) is enabled by default on systems with NVIDIA, ATI and Intel video cards for a faster and smoother graphical boot. "15:50
Keybukfrom the Fedora 12 release notes15:51
Keybukdid they get over their nouveau objection?15:51
mjg59Keybuk: We've never had one?16:00
mjg59Nouveau's been the default driver since it got stable for 2D16:00
Keybukmjg59: I've heard claim from RH people that there's some number <100 of bytes of code in the driver that's maybe config data, maybe executable code, etc. 16:01
Keybukand that has been considered an issue16:01
mjg59Keybuk: You'd need to ask your lawyers. Ours apparently had no problem.16:02
mjg59(I infer - I haven't actually asked them)16:02
mjg59The reason we didn't ship it before was purely that it didn't work terribly well...16:02
Keybukmjg59: like I say, this is something I heard from RH people16:08
Keybukand then from andy16:08
mjg59Keybuk: It's something that was a vague concern, but as far as I know it was sorted16:10
Keybukgood to know16:11
KeybukI came up with a name for F13 ;)16:11
KeybukConstantine ... is a bad film starring Keanu Reeves ... :p16:11
mjg59(Some time ago - we had nouveau by default in F11)16:11
mjg59Ha16:11
Keybukso clearly Fedroa 13 (Matrix)16:11
mjg59I shudder to think of what would happen to the artwork16:11
mjg59Thankfully, I think Matrix would fall at the trademark barrier16:12
Keybukit'd be funny though ;)16:12
penguin42I've looked at a bunch of the packaged kernel rebuild instructions and I don't see where any of them lets me give a modified name to the packages - is there a simple way of doing that? (Ditto is there a simple place to drop a patch file in or is it just a matter of patching the linux-2.6.31 dir after it's been unpacked by an apt-get source ?16:24

wamtyis there a way to *slow down* the linux boot process? i tried already the boot parameters boot_debug=3 and boot_delay=2000, but did not see that anything has changed20:09
penguin42I could swear there was an option for adding a delay after each printk20:13
wamtymy problem is that my linux-computer turns itself off during the early boot process in 3 out of 4 tries.20:14

JanCwamty: you can always look at the logs?20:29
tormodwamty, netconsole might help you20:39
wamtyJanC: i checked dmesg, /var/log/dmseg and /var/log/messages: nothing found20:49
penguin42wamty: How far does it get before it dies?20:57

apwthere is meant to be a fix for that23:30
apwNCommander, ^^ didn't you have the fix for that23:30
apwdid it get uploaded?23:30
Keybukapw: I can't find any header that declares that23:31
apwits definatly not gone away, we had to include linux/sched.h or something similar23:31
apwi can check more detailedly later23:31
Keybukoh, right23:31
Keybuksorry23:31
Keybukbeing a tit23:31
NCommanderapw, Keybuk the patch sat on Launchpad and never got merged23:32

NCommanderapw, Keybuk, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/broadcom-sta/+bug/45875723:33

NCommanderapw, I can throw it in a PPA if you need it ASAP23:33
apwKeybuk, how urgent is it for you ...23:33
Keybukapw: I can edit C code ;)23:33
apwits actually damn hard to edit the dkms poop to make it work23:33
* NCommander notes it took a few hours for me and apw to figure it out23:34
Keybukreally?23:34
KeybukI just edited the unpacked bcmwl-kernel-source package and did dpkg-reconfigure on it23:34
NCommanderKeybuk, it wasn't obviously on why went bust in the first place, then it took awhile to figure how to get DKMS to patch the source on build.23:35
apwthere was something screwey in getting it to not undo the exposed source, i forget what23:35
apwif you have it working all is good23:35
NCommanderKeybuk, could you nominate that bug for Lucid for me so the release team can see it?23:35
Keybukhuh?23:35
Keybuklucid is months away23:35
KeybukJust Fix It (tm)23:36
apwKeybuk, are you sorted for the 'now' ?  if so we can ignore it till next week23:36
Keybukapw: yeah, but will need it fixed to do daily bootcharts and stuff23:39
apwyep.  just if you are good then we can get that one on the radar and get someone to upload it, i think it has the fix en-toto already just literally needs upload23:40
apwi am sure i have it so patched on my machine and can confirm its good23:40
apwNCommander, anythign stopping us just throwing it in the archive?  its lucid after all?23:41
NCommanderapw, I don't have access to the bazaar branch to commit the change23:41
apwNCommander, ok how do i find out who does, whats the master branch name?23:42
