pado you know whether ubuntu kernel supports geoip target for netfilter, or if i do have to patch myself?14:28
cndtgardner, back at the platform sprint we brought the isl388* firmware for prism_softmac cards from karmic into lucid14:34
cndIt turns out I put the fw files in the wrong place14:34
cndI'm looking to rectify it, but I'm realizing now that I can't find a license for the fw14:34
cndI'm wondering if they should be in linux-firmware-nonfree14:35
tgardnercnd, if there is no license, then yes, it should go into non-free14:37
cndtgardner, ok, I'll work on that14:38

cndtgardner, as part of the prism fix, we need to revert the commit that added it into linux-firmware.git15:21
cndis it easiest just to send an email to kernel-team requesting the revert of the commit id?15:21
cndI assume that's easier than making a pull request for just a single commit revert15:22
tgardnercnd, no, a pull request is fine. I've still got to make the packaging changes on top of that15:22

* smb was on the wrong channel. Meeting is in #ubuntu-meeting17:10
mattismb: Ah.17:41
smbmatti, Though its over by now17:41
mattiI was on sudden meeting at work :<17:42
cndapw, when you talk about a potential dep issue with the firmware packages, what specifically is the issue?17:47
cndjust files?17:47
apwwas the version with the files in linux-firmware ever uploaded?17:48
apwif so then the files are now in two packages, which will break17:48
tgardnerapw, yes17:48
cndI believe so, but there won't be a file collision17:48
cndbecause the linux-firmware actually had them in the wrong location17:48
apwon upgrade unless the l-f-nf has a 'conflicts: xxx' or something17:48
apwahh then we get away with it by luck ...17:48
cndso linux-firmware put them in /lib/firmware/prism54_softmac17:48
cndbut the new linux-firmware-nonfree puts them in /lib/firmware17:49
cndwhere they should be17:49
apwthen we don't have an issue, cause there really is no collission, good enough17:49
tgardnercnd, what about the original prism54/* files?17:49
cndcool17:49
cndtgardner, when I was looking for license I read a bit17:49
cndthey are firmwares for older versions of the driver17:49
cndand are not used in lucid's kernel17:50
tgardnercnd, ah, thats right. we're just dropping them.17:50
cndthe new firmwares cover all of the same cards as the old firmwares17:50
tgardnerapw, I'll make sure the packaging is right before I upload ...17:50
apware we dropping any we get from our upstream here?17:50
apwtgardner, yeah i figured you'd know what to do if there was an issue, just wanted to highlight it17:51
cndapw, these don't come from upstream (if you're thinking of dwmw2's tree)17:51
apwindeed.  cool... 17:51
apw..17:51
