| mardy | question for ACPI people: do I understand correctly that a kernel driver can read any of the fields in the DSDT, by calling acpi_evaluate_integer(device, field_path, NULL, &result) ? | 17:46 |
| mardy | I'm asking because I see that that function is only use to invoke ACPI methods | 17:47 |

| Viral | Hi all, does a tickless kernel (CONFIG_NO_HZ=y) effected by CONFIG_HZ_###? | 19:54 |
| mjg59 | Viral: Yes, CONFIG_HZ provides the length of a timer tick while code is running | 20:09 |
| Viral | uhh, is there something up with the git repos : kernel.ubuntu.com[0: 91.189.94.216]: errno=Connection refused | 20:31 |

| ali1234 | git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ appears to be down? | 23:02 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| kamal | ali1234: yes, git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ does appear to be down. I'll report the issue to Canonical information services. | 23:31 |
| ali1234 | thanks | 23:31 |
| ali1234 | since i'm here i might as well ask this question, which is the reason why i need kernel git and not just headers | 23:37 |
| ali1234 | i'm working on a driver for logitech keyboards with built in LCD display | 23:38 |
| ali1234 | i can build the driver out of tree OK | 23:38 |
| ali1234 | but i need to add the USB IDs to the hid blacklist in order for my driver to work, otherwise the standard hid module takes over the device | 23:38 |
| ali1234 | patching the hid blacklist requires rebuilding the hid.ko, which needs full kernel source | 23:39 |
| ali1234 | so is there a way around this? | 23:39 |
| ali1234 | i looked at using kernel bind through sysfs but i couldn't figure out how to use it with hid drivers | 23:40 |
| kamal | ali1234: sorry, can't help you there, but ... | 23:42 |
| kamal | I'm happy to report that Canonical IS has fixed git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ for us | 23:42 |
| ali1234 | there's also an easy 50 rep on stack exchange if anyone knows the answer: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12005/how-to-use-linux-kernel-driver-bind-unbind-interface-for-usb-hid-devices | 23:42 |
| ali1234 | kamal: excellent, thanks | 23:42 |
| kamal | ali1234: glad to help | 23:42 |
