poelzia question. do you guys plan to enable the autogrouping feature in 2.6.38 ?12:08
aboganipoelzi: It is already enabled.12:39
poelziabogani: is there a common way to disable it. my current project ulatencyd does the same job more advanced. i just made packages in they should disable the autogrouping then12:46
poelziahh. i found it12:56
apwpoelzi, there is meant to be a kernel comamnd line option and a sysctl with the full patch13:16
apwpoelzi, not sure they are there for the one which is in natty as uploaded13:16
poelziapw: i just looked it up and i'm now using the sysctl to disable autogrouping when detected13:17
apwnot sure if the v2.6.37 version we have applied has those toggles or not13:18
poelzithat would be quite bad13:18
poelzibut i guess the autogrouping will schedule only once ?13:18
apwpoelzi, *shrug* it won't be in the archive that long, and natty is often broken13:19
poelzias ulatencyd uses netlink to schedule new processes quite fast, it should move it away13:19
apwpoelzi, sounds about right13:20

jibelapw, Hey, could you have a look at bug 703553, it's been introduced by the kernel in maverick-proposed apparently.13:49
ubot2Launchpad bug 703553 in linux (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 1 other project) "After upgrade to linux-image-2.6.35-25 graphics are broken (affects: 14) (dups: 2) (heat: 62)" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70355313:49
apwjibel, looks bad to me, i've subscribed the stable team ... they will be pleased13:54
jibelapw, thanks. 13:54

sforsheeregarding bug 702407, I have a pretty trivial patch that helps with diagnosing hotkey issues on thinkpads. Would this be something we would want in a lucid/maverick SRU?15:55
ubot2Launchpad bug 702407 in udev (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "thinkpad_acpi generated EV_KEY events are mssing scancodes (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70240715:55
sforsheeI've submitted the patch upstream and it's been acked by the maintainer, but it isn't merged into any trees yet15:55
smbWe probably should wait until it hits upstream. As it is not directly a bug that is fixes the argument may be sort of aiding enablement. Which may rather qualify it only for Lucid as Maverick more and more reaches the end for that kind of things15:57
mjg59sforshee: I'll merge that this week15:58
apwsforshee, then i could suck that in to natty for the -rc1 kernels for you to test15:59
sforsheemjg59: great, thanks!15:59
apwsmb, i think we should consider it for L and M as it does mean that pitti can fix a lot more stuff without bothering us15:59
apwand sforshee congrats, thats great16:00
sforsheeapw, thanks16:00
smbapw, He might be more relaxed about that change (not fixing a bug) in that case as he is affected. :)16:00
tgardnerapw, will soon push a patch for bnx2 firmware file name updates in d-i/firmware/nic-modules 16:05
tgardnerjust test building to make sure16:05
apwtgardner, again?  what the heck is with that driver changing each and every time16:06
apwtgardner, and mei aculpa i did not do a full build yet16:06
tgardnerapw, I guess its just firmware version updates.16:06
apwtgardner, yeah, just odd that that one driver is always the one which does it16:07
tgardnerapw, not so odd really. there are only 2 drivers in that udeb that need firmware, and the e1000 seems to be pretty stable.16:07
apwtgardner, i just didn't want you getting over excited and doing the rebase too, it took me a day and half with all the issues in ubuntu/ drivers16:08
apwso i pushed it before i had time for a full rebuild test16:08
tgardnerapw, no worries. I just sat around and drank beer and chased woman for 3 days :)16:08
apwtgardner, sounds wonderful ;)16:09
apwtgardner, let me know when you've pushed and i'll get my builds going16:10
tgardnerapw, pushed16:10
apwsforshee, have you got a bug number for that thinkpad patch ... do i can track it as it merges16:21
apwso16:21
sforsheeapw, 70240716:21
apwsforshee, doh its in my web browser already ... mind==gone16:23

Diels-Alderhi everybody16:34
Diels-AlderI need an information16:35
Diels-Alderdo you know the first kernel that fully support core i7?16:35
* apw wonders which code name i7 had16:36
smbHad been running 2.6.32 with one, though that probably was not the first one16:37
elmonehalem16:37
Diels-Alderyes nehalem core i7 93016:38
apwyeah my earliest experience i think was on Lucid for those16:41
=== kamal is now known as kamal-afk
smbapw, Sounds reasonable. There is a patch to recognize Nehalem IDs in coretemp going into 2.6.27-rc416:43
smbwhich seems about the first places to see that word. Whether that means full support is something else16:44
Diels-Alderthanx16:49
Diels-Alderbyebye16:49
tgardnerbjf, pushing Maverick LBM to canonical-kernel-team PPA16:51
tgardnersconklin, ^^16:51
bjftgardner, ack16:51
sconklintgardner: ack16:51
bguthroI think .35 had the first full Ironlake support, as part of the i7 - so if by "full support" you include graphics, I think it was .3516:54
=== diwic is now known as diwic_afk
=== soad is now known as a7x
tgardnersconklin, as part of your source package checklist, do you verify the upload pocket is correct for the canonical-kernel-team PPA? e.g., maverick v.s. maverick-proposed ?17:01

komputesAnyone seen rtg recently?17:25
apwkomputes, if thats about the touchpady thing, then its now Fix Committed for both maverick and lucid17:29
komputesapw: it is, when can we expect the update?17:30
apwkomputes, i think we are in the middle of an SRU cycle, so if a perfect world i think its about 3 weeks from release if its in master-next17:31
komputesapw: will pass that along, thanks for the info17:32
tgardnerbjf, sconklin-afk - did the armel build issues get sorted? I notice that the maverick meta still has them disabled.17:34
bjftgardner, not that i'm aware of, sconklin is tracking it17:35
tgardnerbjf, ok. I'm gonna whack on maverick meta to enable the new compat-wireless-2.6.37 package17:35
bjftgardner, ack, sconklin ^17:36
apwtgardner, i suspect till we ask for a build in there we won't find out17:36
jjohansenrebooting17:37
tgardnerapw, I guess I was asking 'cause I wanted to know that someone was actually working on it.17:38

tgardnersconklin-afk, bjf: could you use your not inconsiderable influence to get linux-backports-modules-2.6.35 copied to -proposed from the canonical-kernel-team PPA ?18:00
bjftgardner, ack, will ping pitti18:00
ckingbjf, where is that webby page of patches that need testing in proposed?18:00
bjfcking, https://kernel-tools.canonical.com/srus.html18:01
ckingta muchly18:01
ckingand when's the next proposed - in 2 weeks time?18:02
cking(for maverick)18:02
bjfcking, roughly, yes18:05
tgardnerbjf, I'm wondering if its really worth uploading LBM and meta to the canonical-kernel-team PPA if there are no CVEs ? Why not go straight to -proposed ?18:09
bjftgardner, sconklin and i were talking about the same thing last week18:10
ckinghrm, the Dell AMI all-in-one patch - got acked but did it get applied?18:10
bjftgardner, i hate to have multiple processes but it seems to be more work to put things in the ppa18:10
bjfcking, yes, I put in into maverick yesterday18:11
tgardnerbjf, seems like its only the kernels that are required to go through c-k-t18:11
bjftgardner, ack18:11
tgardnerbjf, well, I'll just upload meta to -proposed directly, then when LBM gets pocket copied everything ought to be copascetic18:12
bjftgardner, ok, sounds reasonable18:12
ckingbjf, thanks!18:14

apwyep paste it up18:44
bjfit's in the root of my zinc account18:45
bjfapw, i have a thought on it18:45
bjfapw, i booted with a live image and mounted the root partition18:45
bjfapw, i noticed that though i'm booting 2.6.37-12, my initrd.img is still pointing at a -7 img18:46
bjfapw, looking in the boot directory, there isn't a -12 initrd.img file18:46

jbarnescan someone make sure avahi gets patched so upstream kernels will work?19:04
jbarnessee http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg152775.html19:05
ckingapw, ^19:06
jbarnesoh and making sure /sbin/installkernel gets fixed too would be a plus :)19:06
* jbarnes has been waiting impatiently for 3 years for that fix19:06
smb:19:29
tgardnerjbarnes, can you refresh my memory on your issues with installkernel?19:30
jbarnestgardner: it doesn't make a new initrd nor update-grub to add it to the boot menu19:31
tgardnerjbarnes, I guess I've never used it. lemme look. its part of debianutils19:33
jbarnestgardner: I always just add mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-$ver $ver and update-grub to the end of the script19:38
jbarnesit's an easy fix19:38
jbarnesI just have to do it everytime I install a new dev machine :)19:38
tgardnerjbarnes, Clint Adams <clint@gnu.org> appears to be the upstream for this. Have you sent him a patch?19:39
jbarnesno, iirc there's an upstream bug and fix, but it hasn't landed in debian19:40
tgardnerjbarnes, I'll drop a note on the debian kernel list to find out if there is a good reason why mkinitramfs and update-grub shouldn't be run, especially if its an x86 arch.19:43
jbarnesthanks19:43
tgardnerjbarnes, do you have a pointer to the bug? If not I can likely find it.19:44
jbarnesnot offhand, apw gave it to me last time19:45

tgardnerjbarnes, is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=607411 what you're thinking of?19:53
ubot2Debian bug 607411 in debianutils "installkernel should run-parts /etc/kernel/postinst.d" [Wishlist,Open]19:53
jbarnestgardner: yeah looks like that would do it19:53
tgardnerjbarnes, I'll mess with it. I can likely get it fixed for Natty19:54
jbarnessweet19:54
* jjohansen -> lunch20:03
apwjbarnes, i have the avahi issue reported with the upstream avahi20:49
apwjbarnes, i assume that they are not going to back out the change20:49
jbarnescool20:49
tgardnerapw, did you get it uploaded?20:50
apwtgardner, not as yet, the advice from foundations was to wait a couple of days to let upstream fix it, if that occurs in time the we can just sync the fix in, if that isn't here in time then we do my fix20:51
tgardnerapw, so, in the meantime everything is broken?20:51
apwtgardner, only if you have .38 installed which isn't in the archive20:51
apwbasically they said shove it in if we upload .3820:52
tgardnerok20:52
apwi will ask my friendly tgardner to sponor my upload should that happen20:53
tgardnerapw, I'm not gonna be around much tomorrow. Likely gone by 0900 my time20:54
apwtgardner, no worries, i am sure martin or colin will handle it, they are both aware20:54

manjosforshee, just pm me .. I did not get it 22:45
bjfapw, I "fixed" my natty, I reinstalled Alpha 1 and then just updated the kernel. The initrd was correctly updated. I rebooted and then dist-upgraded and rebooted again and I'm up23:14
bjfapw, if you just do a straight dist-upgrade from an alpha 1 install "bad things happen"23:16
jjohansenbjf: is that a new problem?  I have a machine that I have been updating and haven't run into any problems23:20
jjohansenwell besides it still doesn't have video23:20
bjfjjohansen, i had a natty that was dist-upgrading just fine until the friday before the sprint and then it just came apart23:21
bjfjjohansen, i was forced to install Maverick to have a system to take with me23:21
jjohansenbjf: interesting, I know I have dist-upgraded during the sprint23:22
bjfjjohansen, I just tried putting natty on it today and ran into the same issue, above is my work around23:22
jjohansenhehe, well I still have maverick + natty kernel on the machine I was going to take23:22
jjohansenbjf: okay, I'll take a stab at replicating here23:22
