lag | Mornin' | 07:07 |
cooloney | lag: morning, man | 07:12 |
lag | Hey Bryan :) | 07:21 |
smb | cooloney, Morning. Any news from Freescale about the brickage? | 08:28 |
cooloney | smb: morning, i am just wanna discussing with you. | 08:29 |
cooloney | smb: actually, i don't have any update as we got in the email | 08:29 |
cooloney | i saw you post the security kernel in the email | 08:30 |
smb | Ok, I had been looking at the source code on Friday. Right, there were two updates missing from the latest security, but otherwise it was as I would expect it | 08:30 |
smb | And from the things missing its hard to believe that this can destroy things as it did | 08:31 |
smb | Very strange | 08:31 |
smb | The only other variance was that I built on tangerine but you do that too | 08:31 |
cooloney | smb: for fsl-imx51, i built them in *.mills. | 08:34 |
cooloney | although it is different, i still don't think build machine is a issue. | 08:34 |
cooloney | i have to say ' that's pretty odd' | 08:34 |
cooloney | so what's our next? | 08:35 |
cooloney | i am going to send out an email to ask? | 08:35 |
smb | cooloney, So just to confirm that for myself. When you installed the bad kernel, you once could boot but it crashed. And only then was the board bricked? | 08:35 |
cooloney | smb: oh, IIRC, it never boots any more | 08:36 |
cooloney | we installed the whole system on babbage | 08:36 |
cooloney | and copied your kernel .deb file to the board | 08:36 |
smb | cooloney, So in theory it could be some weird wrongness in the flashing process as well? | 08:36 |
cooloney | and sudo dpkg -i *.deb | 08:36 |
cooloney | smb: yeah, at the end of the installation, it will try to update the kernel in flash | 08:37 |
cooloney | so maybe corrupted sth | 08:37 |
lag | cooloney: How 'bricked' are they? | 08:38 |
lag | cooloney: Have you tried to JTAG them yet? | 08:38 |
smb | Though quite mysterious to do that twice. Anyway, I guess we want to know what _did_ break things. As much as I understood mails. We only know that it was not what fsl thought it was. | 08:38 |
cooloney | lag: cannot even boot from the bootloader | 08:38 |
cooloney | lag: too bad, i don't have it | 08:38 |
cooloney | and we shipped them back to fsl | 08:38 |
lag | Okay, I assume they'll try to JTAG them back to life then | 08:39 |
cooloney | lag: yeah, i think so | 08:39 |
cooloney | smb: let me send out email to sync up with fsl guys | 08:39 |
ikepanhc | cooloney: you mean you update a can-not-boot kernel to babbage and have to send the board back to fsl? | 08:39 |
smb | ikepanhc, We found out about the cannot-boot after flashing. :) | 08:40 |
cooloney | ikepanhc: we tried to test smb's security kernel | 08:40 |
cooloney | after we installed that kernel, the board cannot boot anymore | 08:40 |
cooloney | bricked the board | 08:40 |
cooloney | smb: yeah | 08:40 |
cooloney | update the kernel image in on board flash or somehow | 08:40 |
ikepanhc | IIRC babbage board can boot from SD card... | 08:42 |
simon___ | bump to anybody: 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? | 08:44 |
ikepanhc | simon___: please report it | 08:44 |
smb | simon___, Launchpad against linux package | 08:44 |
cooloney | ikepanhc: yes, but it needs it's on-chip bootrom supports that. | 08:45 |
ikepanhc | simon___: you mean you have a dell laptop and asus-laptop loaded? | 08:45 |
cooloney | ikepanhc: it does not boot from anywhere after that. | 08:45 |
ikepanhc | cooloney: oh, too bad | 08:45 |
ikepanhc | cooloney: ah? on-chip bootrom erased? *faint* | 08:46 |
smb | ikepanhc, Hm, was it asus-laptop which got the handling for the lenove because they had the asustek acpi id? | 08:46 |
ikepanhc | smb: asus-laptop.ko will look for ACPI HID ATK0101 or ATK0100 | 08:46 |
ikepanhc | but they shall not be there on dell laptops | 08:47 |
smb | ikepanhc, So it might be the dell also has that | 08:47 |
smb | ikepanhc, Its said to be packard-bell | 08:47 |
ikepanhc | smb: that will be bad news | 08:47 |
smb | not dell | 08:48 |
ikepanhc | smb: ohoh, sorry for my poor eyes | 08:48 |
smb | ikepanhc, I got that problem too often. :) | 08:48 |
simon___ | ikepanhc:smb is right, it's packard-bell | 08:48 |
ikepanhc | simon___: if you filed the bug, please let me know the bug id | 08:49 |
ikepanhc | simon___: I think I can try to help you | 08:49 |
smb | simon___, The best way would be to use "ubuntu-bug linux" | 08:49 |
simon___ | ikepanhc:i'll file the bug right away.. tnx | 08:49 |
simon___ | smb:should i use "ubuntu-bug linux" with asus_laptop loaded? | 08:50 |
ikepanhc | <---- has a laptop with asus-laptop | 08:50 |
smb | simon___, If it is usable to reach the network yes. | 08:51 |
ikepanhc | simon___: with or without is ok | 08:51 |
smb | At least with the driver loaded it might show some of the problems in the logs | 08:51 |
ikepanhc | yes | 08:52 |
simon___ | smb:wifi doesn't work, but the cable is ok | 08:52 |
smb | simon___, Ok, then do it with it loaded. Sounds a bit like rfkill might be messed up in that case | 08:52 |
simon___ | smb:i agree..at first i thought it was a wifi driver issue so i filled a bug there: | 08:55 |

akgraner | crimsun, in answer to your question about the mac air - nope :-( sorry not yet - I've been a bit busy :-/ I'll see what I can do after next week | 08:57 |
smb | cooloney, I normally wait till the security releases are really out | 08:57 |

simon___ | ikepanhc: i just detected another bug - numlock is not working as expected (it's also an asus_laptop issue). should i add my findings to this bug? | 09:41 |
ikepanhc | simon___: please do so. | 09:42 |
ikepanhc | simon___: but numlock shall be nothing related to ACPI extra driver.. | 09:42 |
simon___ | ikepanhc: i am quite sure it's related to asus_laptop - blacklisting it solves the problem | 09:45 |
ikepanhc | simon___: I have some comment on the bug, I need the acpidump and dmi modalias. please help me dump those info | 09:50 |
simon___ | ikepanhc: sure, but how do i do that? | 09:50 |
ikepanhc | simon___: I write how to do it on the bug comment :) | 09:51 |
simon___ | ikepanhc; the command "sudo iasl ..." is not found. is it a misspell? | 10:00 |
ikepanhc | simon___: no, please "sudo apt-get install iasl", but you can skip that, using acpidump please | 10:01 |
proppy | will 2.6.35 (retail) be build for lucid on ppa ? | 10:01 |
proppy | is it 2.6.35-14 ? | 10:01 |
simon___ | ikepanhc: do i have to install acpidump as well? | 10:01 |
ikepanhc | simon___: yes please | 10:02 |
simon___ | ikepanhc: done | 10:05 |
* ikepanhc looking | 10:05 | |
apw | proppy, do you mean the final v2.6.35 version? yes that will be built for lucid once its done for maverick | 10:06 |
proppy | apw: yes, I meant the one which went out yesterday | 10:07 |
proppy | apw: thanks for the confirmation | 10:07 |
proppy | will it be -14 ? | 10:07 |
apw | proppy, normally the abi number is the same in lucid yes | 10:08 |
proppy | thanks | 10:08 |
proppy | it seems like it will be built in 2 days :) https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa/+build/1900054 | 10:10 |
proppy | can I dget && debuild an ubuntu kernel .dsc, or are there additional steps needed ? | 10:14 |

Corona | hi everybody | 11:03 |
Corona | i'm trying to build a kernel in order to test a patch | 11:04 |
Corona | i'm following these instructions https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild | 11:04 |
Corona | but apparently they only work for linus's tree and I need to apply a patch to drm-intel-next | 11:05 |
Corona | does anybody know where i can find instructions on how to do this? | 11:05 |
=== amitk-afk is now known as amitk | ||
apw | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/QuickBuildLocal | 12:09 |
apw | Corona, that one perhaps ^^ | 12:10 |
Corona | thanks apw, but that's not really what i'm looking for. can i just clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/anholt/drm-intel.git and then apply the patches or do i need to merge the drm-intel-next branch with linus's tree? | 12:16 |
apw | Corona, as the drm-intel branch is just a derivative tree from linus' tree you should be able to do the same thing to it you can the linus tree | 12:17 |
apw | though i'd have thought you really want an ubuntu tree and cherry-pick the patch you need onto it | 12:17 |
Corona | the patch is in mailbox format so that's why i was told to use git | 12:18 |
Corona | here's the patch, but i can't get the kernel to compile when i apply it | 12:18 |
Corona | https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=36959 | 12:18 |
apw | how does it fail | 12:19 |
Corona | it doesnt say much, the compilation process stops with "error 2" | 12:20 |
Corona | [debian/stamp/build/kernel] Error 2 | 12:20 |
Corona | i just started over with a clean tree so i'm going to have lunch while it compiles | 12:22 |

jjohansen | soren: I can blissfully ignore it when I'm not doing something with it | 12:58 |
soren | jjohansen: True. | 12:59 |
soren | still... It's always lurking somewhere. *shudder* | 12:59 |
* cking is glad ACPI AML code is not like C++ | 13:08 | |
jjohansen | hehe, but are they really any more sane? | 13:10 |
cking | both make me feel insane | 13:10 |
* smb tries to imagine object oriented BIOS code and shudders | 13:15 | |
JFo | well that was a bit odd | 13:33 |
smb | JFo, Odder than the usual oddness? | 13:34 |
JFo | indeed | 13:39 |
JFo | my machine went dark and wouldn't respond at all | 13:39 |
smb | Thats odd | 13:39 |
JFo | never done that before | 13:39 |
JFo | heh | 13:39 |
smb | Hm, were you still on Lucid or Maverick? | 13:40 |
JFo | this is Lucid\ | 13:40 |
cking | JFo, run out of power? ;-) | 13:40 |
JFo | no cking I checked that ;) | 13:40 |
smb | Went black means just screen black but some parts still running or shutdown? | 13:41 |
cking | can you ping it? | 13:42 |
* smb imagines JFo sitting in front of his laptop with a triangle: "Yep, that works!" :-P | 13:43 | |
cking | gosh, we're being very literal today | 13:43 |
smb | Yeah, must be something in my coffee today | 13:44 |
JFo | heh | 13:48 |
JFo | smb, looked like there was HDD activity | 13:48 |
JFo | but no ping, ssh, etc | 13:48 |
JFo | the backlight was still on | 13:48 |
smb | Ok, so rather hang than thermal shutdown | 13:48 |
JFo | just nothing displayed | 13:48 |
smb | Really sounds like some stuff that apw had seen. But that was rather on boot | 13:49 |
smb | Like the drm driver locked down hard while not refreshing or so | 13:49 |
jjohansen | JFo: did it happen on resume, perchance? I've seen the screen come back from resume briefly and then go dark. | 13:50 |
JFo | no, this was a fresh startup | 13:50 |
smb | during startup? | 13:50 |
JFo | jjohansen, I did have that happen though at the sprint | 13:50 |
JFo | smb, after | 13:50 |
smb | ok | 13:51 |
JFo | it came up, I logged in, started things | 13:51 |
JFo | and then went for coffee | 13:51 |
JFo | and when I came back it was like that | 13:51 |
smb | So could be power save mode | 13:51 |
smb | for the screen | 13:51 |
JFo | could have been | 13:51 |
JFo | but the backlight was still on | 13:51 |
JFo | so the screen was on | 13:51 |
cking | and maybe GPU lock up | 13:51 |
JFo | and I have no screensaver configured | 13:51 |
smb | I believe that DMPS thing sill kicks in | 13:52 |
JFo | brb, i need more coffee :) | 13:52 |
diwic | A bug is sitting on my screen. | 13:53 |
smb | Hm, on it has the advantage that you can squash it more simply | 13:57 |
diwic | smb, it's likely to turn into SAUCE then ;-) | 14:03 |

diwic | morning cnd | 14:48 |
cnd | anyone know how linaro stuff flows to the ubuntu kernel | 14:49 |
cnd | things like Dave Martin's perf patches that he posted about on the kernel-team mailing list? | 14:49 |
cnd | apw, tgardner, ogasawara? ^^ | 14:53 |
apw | cnd, they have their own master tree | 14:53 |
cnd | apw, so does that mean that if we want Dave's cool patches, we need to have them submitted specifically for the maverick kernel? | 14:54 |
amitk | cnd: isn't that why he posted it to the k-t list? Do they not apply? | 14:56 |
jwest- | hi | 14:57 |
jwest- | is the 2.6.35 kernel released today | 14:57 |
diwic | cnd, I look through the canonical-kernel-team list but can't find anything from Dave Martin...? | 14:57 |
ogra | cnd, depends on the kernel | 15:00 |
ogra | cnd, for omap4 we still have the separate branch, omap3 gets built from the ubuntu source package, i guess you will find linaro patches only in the linaro branch and binaries | 15:00 |
cnd | diwic, the kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com mailng list | 15:01 |
jwest- | do you guys think i should update to the 2.6.35 kernel? | 15:01 |
jwest- | or wait? | 15:01 |
cnd | ogra, I'm interested in Dave's perf patches | 15:01 |
cnd | which aren't arch specific | 15:01 |
JFo | jwest-, depends on what the machine you are upgrading is used for | 15:01 |
diwic | jwest-, we always need more testers :-) | 15:02 |
amitk | cnd: you didn't answer me, do they not apply? | 15:02 |
JFo | I don't recommend updates to dev unless it is a test machine | 15:02 |
JFo | yeah, what diwic said :) | 15:02 |
cnd | amitk, sorry, didn't see your msg | 15:02 |
cnd | I don't know if they apply, because I haven't had time to really take a good look | 15:02 |
cnd | amitk, so I was wondering if I needed to take a look, or if they would be pulled automagically into ubuntu | 15:03 |
amitk | cnd: in general, I've been urging everything going into the linaro kernel to be made available for ubuntu (post to k-t). Then it is upto the k-t to decide if they want to them | 15:04 |
amitk | s/for/to | 15:04 |
jwest- | diwic: i could try:D | 15:04 |
amitk | s/want to/want to apply/ | 15:04 |
amitk | *sigh* | 15:04 |
tgardner | amitk, y'all could have your very own linux-linaro kernel if I could get the packaged accepted. I sent slangasek and email about it. | 15:07 |
tgardner | s/and/an/ | 15:07 |
amitk | tgardner: sure, in this case though, the changes are general enough for other flavours too, I believe | 15:08 |
cnd | sorry for going awol, I'm otp :( | 15:08 |
tgardner | amitk, the perf bits? If they get accepted upstream then we'll likely be able to get 'em via stable (eventually) | 15:09 |
amitk | cnd: understand, you're probably contorting at weird angles to get reception on the iPhone 4 :-p | 15:09 |
JFo | just his hand though | 15:10 |

jjohansen | diwic: hrmm, lots of different gdb frontends, ddd is the generic fallback but its kindof slow, Insight and KDbg are worth looking at, I would avoid eclipse unless you want to setup a project just so you can debug | 15:23 |
jjohansen | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debugger_front_end | 15:23 |
jjohansen | diwic: that is assuming your doing userspace debugging | 15:24 |
cnd | amitk, tgardner, the perf bits aren't really something I would expect to get through -stable | 15:24 |
diwic | jjohansen, I've tried ddd and kdevelop's built-in and haven't really fallen in love with either of them | 15:24 |
cnd | so I think we should just pull them | 15:24 |
jjohansen | diwic: yeah, none of them are great | 15:25 |
tgardner | cnd, once they are actually upstream perhaps | 15:25 |
cnd | tgardner, they are already upstream | 15:25 |
cnd | at least, they are in Arnaldo's tree | 15:25 |
tgardner | cnd, in Linus' tree? | 15:25 |
cnd | tgardner, not yet, but I would assume as soon as he pulls from arnaldo | 15:26 |
cnd | I will try to take a look at the patches myself and test them out | 15:27 |

tgardner | smb, is Lucid mvl-dove subject to SRU ? | 16:35 |
smb | tgardner, Only sort of SRU-light | 16:35 |
smb | But you should still have bugs for things to change | 16:35 |
smb | or reports that is | 16:35 |
smb | tgardner, But if you ask about the mvl pull request | 16:36 |
=== bjf[afk] is now known as bjf | ||
smb | tgardner, If there is no tracking lp report there should be one. SRU team is looking over those things and it seems to complicate their process when this is missing. | 16:38 |
smb | tgardner, I/we can mass-add the buglinks before applying, but need to know the number | 16:39 |
tgardner | smb, why are you telling me all of this? you should be telling ericm | 16:39 |
smb | tgardner, because you asked | 16:39 |
tgardner | smb, I only asked if mvl-dove was subject to SRU. | 16:40 |
smb | tgardner, Ok, ok, the rest you don't care. :) I'll post a reply | 16:40 |
smb | bjf, Were you usually quick reading ARM pull requests | 16:43 |
bjf | smb, not exactly sure what your question is but I did see eric's pull request, want me to review it? | 16:44 |
tgardner | smb, bjfwhy bother? About all we can actually change is packaging, so the rest is just a waste of time. | 16:45 |
smb | bjf, I just vaguely remembered you once going over some patches from Bryan for fsl. On their topic branches its not really required as they are ok to do what they want | 16:45 |
tgardner | bjf^^ | 16:45 |
smb | bjf, The question was more were you planning | 16:46 |
smb | But otherwise I'd agree not to bother too much | 16:46 |
bjf | smb, yes I did look at some earlier mvl patches, was thinking about looking these new ones over, but there's not much we can do other than suck them in | 16:46 |
smb | exactly | 16:47 |
smb | sconklin, Was it you that had used some helper to quickly create man pages from text files? | 16:49 |
octo777 | is the intellegacy driver, the same driver that was the intel driver in older kernels? If so, it should work the same as before once KMS is turned off right ? | 16:50 |
ogasawara | tgardner: seems I don't have the permissions to upload lbm. I've got the package built in my home dir on zinc. Could you sign it for me and upload in the mean time. | 16:50 |
ogasawara | tgardner: I assume I just need to get cjwatson to add it to the list of packages for the ubuntu-kernel-uploaders team | 16:51 |
smb | ogasawara, Yes, the joy of the name containing the version | 16:51 |
ogasawara | smb: yep, figured that was it | 16:51 |
tgardner | ogasawara, ack | 16:51 |
sconklin | smb: there's a tool that is part of the debian packaging utilities which generates a man page template from the output of "command --help" | 16:52 |
sconklin | smb: stand by and I'll figure out what it is | 16:53 |
smb | sconklin, Hm that might be nice though a bit sparse in this special case | 16:54 |
tgardner | ogasawara, done | 16:55 |
ogasawara | tgardner: thanks | 16:55 |
tgardner | ogasawara, arm finished? | 16:56 |
smb | Hm, debhelper created an .ex maybe I just use that. Annoyingly high effort for such a small package | 16:56 |
ogasawara | tgardner: not yet, I think it has 1 more hr to finish building | 16:56 |
ogasawara | tgardner: once that's done, I'll upload linux-meta | 16:57 |
tgardner | ogasawara, you cuold probably upload the -meta package now. the armel guys can just deal.... | 16:57 |
ogasawara | tgardner: true | 16:57 |
* ogasawara uploads | 16:58 | |

ogasawara | or if I've been talking to myself | 17:08 |
bjf | ogasawara, no | 17:08 |
ogasawara | awesome | 17:08 |

komputes | Hello kernel folks, I was wondering if there is a way to tell if KMS is currently enabled. | 17:16 |
tgardner | smb, bjf, sconklin, would one of you guys take care of the patch in bug #576066 ? I know I sent it out for review at least once. | 17:27 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 576066 in linux (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 3 other projects) "ums_cypress missing from lucid server cd (affects: 1) (heat: 46)" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/576066 | 17:27 |
* smb thinks he saw it but hasn't looked | 17:28 | |
smb | bjf, sconklin Feel free to grab | 17:28 |
sconklin | I'll take it | 17:29 |
bjf | tgardner, reading through the description for bug 611474, he tried a 2.6.35 kernel already | 17:35 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 611474 in linux (Ubuntu) "Boot fails with busybox prompt using LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1068E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS [1000:0058] (rev 08) SAS Disk Controller (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/611474 | 17:35 |
tgardner | bjf, hmm, what did he boot in order to get the SAS disk address ? | 17:36 |
tgardner | CurrentDmesg.txt is only a fragment, so I can't tell what kernel it is | 17:37 |
bjf | tgardner, don't know | 17:37 |
bjf | tgardner, the apport-collect was done on 2.6.32 | 17:38 |
tgardner | bjf, he says 'Booting from a SATA drive seems to works'. I wonder if he means that the SAS drivers work when booting from SATA. | 17:39 |
tgardner | SAS drives* | 17:39 |
tgardner | in which case that inmplies its an initrd problem | 17:39 |
smb | tgardner, The question would be whether those need additional handling beside of the diver being loaded | 17:40 |
tgardner | smb, well, like what? | 17:40 |
smb | Heck if I knew. But in those dmesg the drive came up quite late after the SATA drive and network stuff | 17:41 |
smb | Do those things need special fw loaded? | 17:42 |
tgardner | smb, yes IIRC | 17:42 |
tgardner | it looks like he able to install to a SAS drive, so that means the boot kernel did the right thing | 17:43 |
smb | Well the boot kernel had a different medium for the root fs | 17:43 |
smb | ie the cd | 17:43 |
tgardner | smb, thats beside the point. the boot kernel _did_ see the SAS drives. | 17:44 |
smb | We are talking about the boot dmesg in the report, which was booted from SATA | 17:44 |
smb | ? | 17:44 |
tgardner | smb, I think so, but its hard to tell | 17:44 |
smb | ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) | 17:45 |

tgardner | in CurrentDmg.txt | 17:46 |
smb | That is later on in the current dmesg | 17:46 |
smb | yep | 17:46 |
tgardner | huh? Its right at the top | 17:47 |
tgardner | oh well, I'm gonna ask for some clarifications in the bug | 17:47 |
smb | Like you need the root fs (or stuff from there), then it takes a bit to initialize and then the drive come up | 17:47 |
* manjo getting lunch will be back soon | 17:49 | |
smb | I am not sure, but I thought boot.dmesg ends when switched from initrd root to real root fs. But I might be wrong | 17:49 |

komputes | smb: ping | 18:19 |
* smb is only available for really simple stuff | 18:20 | |
komputes | smb: Do you know a way to tell if KMS is currently enabled. | 18:22 |
komputes | ^ simple? | 18:23 |
smb | Not sure there is a single bit somewhere. apw do you know that. Otherwise usually you would see special drmfb devices... | 18:24 |
tgardner | komputes, as far as the kernel team is concerned, the first step towards debugging desktop issues (like KMS) is to try a recent release. | 18:24 |
komputes | tgardner: right, in mode cases that would do however I simply want to know if there is a way to tell if, in the current session, xorg or the kernel is doing mode switching | 18:26 |
smb | Most drivers seem to emit stuff like | 18:27 |
smb | [ 15.602350] [drm] radeon defaulting to kernel modesetting. | 18:27 |
smb | Hm, not intel as it seems | 18:28 |
komputes | smb: interesting, dmesg...eh? | 18:28 |
smb | komputes, Yep | 18:28 |
komputes | tgardner: would explain why I can't see it for my intel card | 18:28 |
smb | But there you would see inteldrmfb being used which iirc indicates kms | 18:29 |
komputes | ok, well thanks guys, that helps - would be nice to see it on i915 driver as well, but this is good enough as an indication :) | 18:29 |
komputes | and tgardner, thanks for following up on Bug #611474, much appreciated | 18:30 |

proppy | Hi, it seems kernel 2.6.35 headers package are broken | 19:30 |
proppy | linux-headers-2.6.35-14-generic: Depends: linux-headers-2.6.35-14 but it is not installable | 19:30 |
proppy | E: Broken packages | 19:30 |
proppy | does someone have a clue ? | 19:30 |
proppy | (from kernel-ppa) | 19:30 |
tgardner | proppy, i386 ? | 19:31 |
proppy | amd64 | 19:31 |
proppy | just installed .../linux-image-2.6.35-14-generic_2.6.35-14.19~lucid1_amd64.deb | 19:31 |
tgardner | proppy, you gotta wait until i386 finishes. | 19:31 |
jjohansen | ->Lunch | 19:31 |
proppy | oh ok, | 19:32 |
proppy | the package seems there thought linux-headers-2.6.35-14-generic_2.6.35-14.19~lucid1_amd64.deb | 19:33 |
proppy | only one of its dependencies is missing | 19:33 |
tgardner | proppy, all of the linux-headers packages depend on a package that is only built for i386, so it'll be awhile yet | 19:33 |
proppy | oh ok, tgardner thanks for this information | 19:34 |
proppy | so I should wait until https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa/+build/1900054 is done right ? | 19:34 |
proppy | 05/08 ;0 | 19:34 |
proppy | :) | 19:34 |
tgardner | proppy, I don't know whats taking so long, but I wanted to advertise the amd64 binaries so folks could do some testing | 19:34 |
proppy | tgardner: do you want me to do any test in specific ? | 19:35 |
tgardner | nothing particular other then just using the kernel | 19:36 |
proppy | was looking for this patch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=commit;h=a1e80fafc9f0742a1776a0490258cb64912411b0 | 19:39 |
proppy | obviously it is included in 2.6.35-14 | 19:39 |
proppy | tgardner: do you know if I could me the missing package myself ? | 19:40 |
proppy | apt-get source linux-headers && debuild ? | 19:40 |
tgardner | yeah, if you know a bit about building the kernel. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev | 19:41 |
proppy | tgardner: thanks for the pointer | 19:43 |
proppy | 'fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep' was what I was looking for | 19:43 |
* ogasawara lunch | 20:06 | |
proppy | tgardner: asciidoc is also needed for building indep | 20:09 |
proppy | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/QuickBuildLocal#Packages%20required%20on%20a%20build%20system | 20:09 |
tgardner | proppy, 'sudo apt-get build-dep linux' | 20:10 |
proppy | oh ok, should we updated the wiki page ? | 20:11 |
tgardner | proppy, I need to experiment a bit. I think build-dep doesn't work as well on older releases. | 20:11 |
proppy | dpkg-deb: building package `linux-headers-2.6.35-14' in `../linux-headers-2.6.35-14_2.6.35-14.19~lucid1_all.deb'. | 20:11 |
