| simon___ | hello, i have found a bug but don't know where to report: i have a packard-bell laptop and the kernel loads asus_laptop by default. this driver is causing some problems (e.g. wifi) and the workaround is to blacklist the driver | 11:30 |

| andreoli | hi all, I have uploaded a source package for a modified kernel | 13:56 |
| andreoli | upload is ok, build fails with the following message | 13:56 |
| andreoli | II: Checking ABI for generic... EE: Previous or current ABI file missing! /build/buildd/linux-2.6.32/debian.master/abi/2.6.32-24.38/amd64/generic make: *** [abi-check-generic] Error 1 dpkg-buildpackage: error: /usr/bin/fakeroot debian/rules binary-arch gave error exit status 2 | 13:56 |
| andreoli | How do I skip ABI checks in launchpad builds? Is it possible at all? | 13:57 |
| andreoli | I wouldn't like to bump the ABI | 13:57 |
| andreoli | Forgot to tell: upload is to a PPA | 13:59 |
| abogani | andreoli, "skipabi = true" in debian.XXX/rules.d/ARCH.mk | 14:04 |
| andreoli | thx, abogani :) will try right now | 14:08 |
| andreoli | by the way, anyone care to try my work? Where can I announce it? | 14:08 |
| abogani | andreoli, You could let people let know of it announcing it on kernel-team mailing list and on ubuntu-devel. | 14:11 |
| abogani | andreoli, Can you explain me your work in a single line? | 14:11 |
| andreoli | yes | 14:16 |
| andreoli | I and my colleague have written a new diskj I/O scheduler that outperforms significantly the current one (CFQ) | 14:16 |
| andreoli | it has latency 5 to 10 times better and a twofold throughput for many workload scenarios | 14:17 |
| andreoli | for more information, you can read here (sorry for advertising :)): | 14:18 |
| andreoli | http://algo.ing.unimo.it/people/paolo/disk_sched/ | 14:18 |
| andreoli | I mainly helped debug the beast, my colleague paolo worked the algorithm out and proposed an implementation | 14:19 |
| shadeslayer | when i installed the nvidia drivers it said that it could not build modules for the current kernel since it did not have kernel sources, any ideas on this? | 14:30 |
| shadeslayer | ( ive already installed linux-source-2.6.35 to no avail ) | 14:30 |
| abogani | shadeslayer, You should try to install appropriate linux-header-*s package | 14:33 |
| shadeslayer | ah i see | 14:33 |
| shadeslayer | E: Package linux-headers-2.6.35-11-generic has no installation candidate | 14:35 |
| shadeslayer | hmm 2.6.35-13 does exisist tho | 14:36 |
| abogani | uname -a should report which version you are need to have installed | 14:38 |
| shadeslayer | abogani: there is no -11 headers package | 14:48 |
| shadeslayer | which is weird.. but i guess its due to the fact we have a -13 package now | 14:48 |
| simon___ | again.. i have found a bug and don't know where to report it: i have a packard-bell laptop and the kernel loads asus_laptop driver by default (it's enabled in the stup process). it's a driver that's causing some problems (e.g. wifi) and the workaround is to blacklist it. where should i report it? | 16:19 |
