| Sebboh | Hi. I'm using the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile . I'm building on a PowerPC, I've got the Maverick kernel source via git, and I've modified a source file to get around a won't-fix bug for powerpc. I haven't done this in a while, and last time I did was on Debian. I'd use make menuconfig to build a .config.. About halfway through that guide, it says to execute "AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs". | 01:20 |
| Sebboh | Also, this guide refers to a few things that don't exist in this source tree, like "To build one of the custom flavours (found in debian/binary-custom.d/), use: ..." There is no such directory. Did that stuff move somewhere else? | 01:25 |
| Sebboh | Oh, a better example: "If you just want to update one architecture, run: debian/scripts/misc/oldconfig ARCH"... No such file. But I really want to do that. How? | 01:28 |
| Sebboh | debian/rules editconfigs didn't prompt me for powerpc. I'm just trying random things here.. :P | 01:36 |

| Sebboh | ok, forget my previous question.. | 03:40 |
| Sebboh | How can I use my own .config for a kernel build? I'm following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile .. Whenever I put a .config in the kernel source root, the build process complains that I should run make mrproper. I've read that this means there are extra files, great. How do I shove my .config into this new debian.master/config flavour system? | 03:40 |

| smoser | smb, around ? | 15:13 |
| smb | smoser, masybe 25% (currently sitting in talks at LPC) | 15:13 |
| smoser | i'm wondering if you woudl think that bug 667656 is a dupe of bug 567334 and/or bug 666211 | 15:14 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 667656 in linux (Ubuntu) "soft-crash: task flush blocked for more than 120 seconds (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/667656 | 15:14 |

| smoser | or if its just symtoms (the blocked tasks that are the same) | 15:14 |
| smb | smoser, blocked tasks would at least be different to the boot crash I guess | 15:15 |
| smb | Depends on whether there is a crash visible | 15:15 |
| smb | For some time, and I am not sure what kernels where used for the task blocked cases, there | 15:15 |
| smb | was some chance that this was related to poor writeback performance | 15:15 |
| smb | smoser, If possible we should get reconfirmation with the latest kernel currently in proposed (for Lucid) | 15:16 |
| smoser | ok. so i'll leave them un-duped for the moment. bug 667656 is the only one with a actual crash. | 15:17 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 667656 in linux (Ubuntu) "soft-crash: task flush blocked for more than 120 seconds (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/667656 | 15:17 |
| smoser | none of those are lucid, smb | 15:17 |
| smb | Ok, so at least there should be not that critical writeback problems in Maverick | 15:17 |
| smb | smoser, jj just started a SRU for the intel_idle option to be disabled | 15:18 |
| smoser | some people are suspecting that its ext4 related, which could be why you'd see them on maverick but not lucid. | 15:18 |
| smoser | maverick ec2 images have ext4, lucid have ext3 | 15:18 |
| smoser | smoser, in the -virtual kernel ? | 15:18 |
| smb | One might do ext3 to compare, but I would need to check on the tracebacks of the task blocked bugs to say more | 15:19 |
| smb | and that likely will not be before next week | 15:19 |
| smoser | smb, so what do you think about the random kernel message timestamps ? | 15:23 |
| smoser | ie, apparent time travel both forward and backward by months at a time | 15:24 |
| smb | smoser, It would be interesting to know what clocksource is used in those cases (should be somewhere in /sys/devices/system/clocksource). So could be a bad timer there or something related to c-states handling. | 15:29 |
| smb | But as said, being at a conference I won't spend too much time to think on those things now | 15:29 |
| smoser | smb, fair enough. thanks for your time, htough. | 15:29 |

| robtow | Has anyone gotten Ubuntu 10.10, kernel 2.6.35-22-generic to work with a Dell e6510 WITHOUT an Nvidia card? I can boot 10.10 with kernel 2.6.31-22-generic; but 2.6.25-22-generic gives the message: "22.2344991 Intel ips 0000:00:1f.6: failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled" - then it boots, but with no X. Adding nomodeset to boot params doesn't help. | 16:58 |

| tgardner | apw, armel build broke when you re-enabled CONFIG_GPIO_PCH when merging the ports config. | 19:54 |
| apw | tgardner, no it broke when the patch you applied after the one which disabled it, reenabled it | 19:54 |
| apw | but that isn't your fault, something screwey is going on | 19:54 |
| apw | i am trying to turn it off, and it won't stay turned off right now | 19:55 |
| tgardner | hmm, I thought it got tuned on in 'UBUNTU: [Config] move powerpc over from ports to distro' | 19:55 |
