[01:10] <chedder> can someone point me to ubuntu\arm benchmarks
[01:13] <zandubalm123> Anyone could comment abt virtualbox vs vmware in terms of performance? I need to install one on my ubuntu box and I am looking for speed....

[03:51] <mahmoh> hmm, running IO tests, unsure what caused this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/645160/
[17:13] <GrueMaster> mahmoh: Looks like either your external drive was shut down or possibly put into sleep mode and didn't wake up.
[17:15] <GrueMaster> chedder: Sorry, we do not publish benchmark results as a rule.  We sometimes use benchmark tools to ensure no speed regressions or as a test suite for app functionality.  Try a web site like Phoronix.
[17:18] <chedder> GrueMaster - thanks. Can you tell me what benchmark tools are used commonly?
[17:19] <chedder> I will look at Phoronix as well
[17:19] <GrueMaster> Off hand, no, not on arm.  Most of the testing prior to this cycle has been hands-on.
[17:19] <GrueMaster> But I would imagine phoronix-test-suite, as it is fairly complete.
[17:20] <chedder> thanks, I am at the website now
[17:22] <GrueMaster> Just remember that on arm, benchmarks don't mean as much, as each SOC is designed for specific tasks.  For example, the TI OMAP series is designed for cell phone & tablet use, whereas Marvell designs for NAS boxes.
[17:23] <GrueMaster> It can almost be like comparint an Intel Atom to an Intel iCore7 Xeon.
[18:37] <slava__> Hello, everyone! I have a problem. Arch - armv4l (str8132). I have sources, but can't rewrite kernel into flash, because as I found out, that kernel is not compatible at all. Well, I need to hook one syscall. I have found sys_call_table address, but that table is ro only. How can I change attributes of this kernel section from module? Kernel version is Linux NAS 2.6.16-star #812 Mon Nov 17 15:27:34 CST 2008 armv4l GNU/Linux
[20:20] <persia> slava__, armv4l!  How does Ubuntu even run on that?
[20:20] <persia> ogra_, How could bug #701698 possibly be related to r-cran-boot?
[20:20] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 701698 in boot "update-initramfs -c does not update the bootloader" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/701698
[20:26] <slava__> persia, yes. I can install some graphical packages here through compiling.
[20:27] <persia> Oh my!  Well, good luck with your kernel issue.
