AnAntHello, is stable@kernel.org a mailing list ? if yes, where are the archives ?04:11
AnAntogasawara: thanks06:58
amitkapw, several new drivers coming your way :) (Re: broadcom open sources several drivers)08:19
* abogani waves all!08:21
ikepanhcI remember leann had a presentation that we can change the linux-image deb and rebuild the ISO image, anyone knows where we can find how to do it?08:32
apwamitk, yeah thats very good news08:48
apwikepanhc, wasn't that about testing?  maybe a wiki page about it08:48
ikepanhcapw: its about bug 63470208:51
ubot2Launchpad bug 634702 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel 2.6.3519 fails to boot Lenovo S10-3 (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/63470208:51
ikepanhcapw: looks like a regression, I think I can test for old kernels to make sure how it happen, or any idea?08:52
apwikepanhc, if you made a USB stick with a large persistance filesystem you can install and update kernels on  it right?08:55
apwif you have any system which can boot it08:55
apwikepanhc, did you test -19 or -20 ?08:57
ikepanhcapw: lastest daily-livecd08:57
ikepanhcapw: checking for its ABI now08:57
apwso thats proabally -2008:57
ikepanhcapw: another question: kernel freeze in 4 days, how will we deal with this kind of bugs.. in my viewpoint this shall be a critical bug08:59
apwikepanhc, kernel freeze means no mo features, we can in an emergency add patches.  we start apply SRU policy to changes proposed for maverick at that point09:00
ikepanhcapw: got it09:00
ikepanhcapw: yes, its -20 kernel09:01
apwso you could diw09:02
apwdowngrade the kernel using anoth09:02
apwanother machine booted on it09:02
ikepanhcbut how can we update the initrd?09:03
* apw actually is now unsure, perhaps there is a reason you can;t damn i forget09:04
ikepanhcI find the alpha-3 iso. I will test it first09:06
apwyeah good plan, i can't find the page, but i am sure there is a wiki page from leann as you suggest09:07
ikepanhcI will ask leann...09:07
RAOFWhere is the drm-intel-next mainline build being pulled from now?  Has it been updated to the new Chris Wilson-maintained branch?09:23
apwRAOF, nope, it was removed cause i was told it was dead09:36
apwRAOF, is there now a new one?09:36
RAOFapw: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git;a=summary09:37
apwRAOF, so drm-intel-next from there ?09:37
RAOFYup.09:37
RAOFAlthough the commit that I actually _want_ is in drm-intel-staging (for bug #629711)09:38
ubot2Launchpad bug 629711 in linux (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 2 other projects) "[Maverick] Removing external display on Vostro 3500 corrupts the screen (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62971109:38
apwRAOF, ok i've reinstated the drm-intel-next builds from the new place, first one should be triggered on the hour09:48
RAOFapw: Neato!09:49
apwRAOF, have we bottomed out on i8xx support yet?  there was a bunch of options and i am not sure as to the outcome, did you an Sarvatt come to an agreement on strategy?09:49
RAOFSarvatt's leaning towards unblacklisting KMS and using fbdev on them.09:50
RAOFWell, not so much “leaning towards” as “advocating”.09:50
apwyep, and what about you?09:50
apwi see we have them blacklisted at of now, and we'd need to reverse that before next thursday if we're going to09:51
RAOFI think we should probably go with KMS + fbdev.09:51
RAOFA number of people on the bug have found that vesa just doesn't work for them at all.09:52
apwRAOF, ok so will you start the discussion somewhere that X and kernel can see it ...09:53
RAOFYeah.09:53
RAOFI'll continue the thread on ubuntu-x@09:53
apwor Sarvatt if that is more appropriate09:53
RAOFAnd CC kernel-team.09:53

apwjjohansen, that kernel is: http://people.canonical.com/~apw/generic64-maverick/16:37
apwthis is a 32bit packaged 64bit kernel16:37
jjohansenokay, I'll give it a sping16:38
apwso it should install and work on a 32bit userspace ... in theory16:38
jjohansens/sping/spin16:38
apwof course its hard to tell if i've done it right, a dmesg from the boot would be useful16:38
jjohansenapw: booted, where would you like me to put the dmesg16:45
apwpastbin perhaps16:46
apwor chin or zinc16:46

apwjjohansen, i am supprised to see x86_64 in there from a 32 bit userspace16:52
jjohansenhrmm, me too16:52
apwi thought it was supposed to round it down to i686 for 32 bit userspace16:52
jjohansenits a maverick-desktop i386 install16:53
apwwell that seems good, other than the x86_64 appearing in uname16:56
apwperhaps it was another call that lies, i wish i could find the code16:57
apwjjohansen, i think its a bug, they changed the code which did that to do it in a common way17:00

cnd_apw, ogasawara, have you seen suspend/resume issues on intel hardware lately?18:32
cnd_in maverick?18:32
cnd_my mini won't resume properly18:33
apwcnd_, nope18:33
ogasawaracnd: I haven't myself, which maverick kernel?18:35
cnd_-2018:35
cnd_let me see if I have some logs18:36
apwcnd_, do see if its new by backing up a kernel18:36
cnd_apw, I will if/when I get a chance18:36
cnd_I'm crazy busy right now :(18:36
ogasawaracnd: my mini is at home but I can test when I get back (although I swear I'd tested before I uploaded)18:37
cnd_it seems to suspend18:38
cnd_on resume I think the HD light blinks a bit18:38
cnd_but the screen doesn't come up and I can't seem to do anything18:38
cnd_unfortunately my mini is my only "work" computer (i.e. non-victim) and I'm at a conference18:38
bjfcnd_, but the "fast boot" is soo fast, why bother suspending?18:40
cnd_heh :)18:40
apwcnd_, try switching VT to 0 and back18:40
apwto save the pitiful battery no doubt18:41
cnd_apw, hmm, I can't even switch to a VT18:41
cnd_I'm in unity18:41
apwyou lose :)18:41
cnd_I dunno if that makes a difference18:41
cnd_heh18:41
cnd_oh wait, I wasn't holding down Fn18:41
cnd_let me try that18:41
cnd_apw, ok VT switching worked18:41
apwcnd_, wibble, well you have a work around at least18:42
cnd_yeah18:42
apwcnd, let us know if its reproducible18:45
cnd_yep18:48
cnd_well, it is reproducible18:48
apwyep it is, or you will?18:48
cnd_every time I suspend18:48
