| mthaddon | howdy folks, I'm seeing some issues on a Thinkpad X220 (64 bit) with oneiric - occasional hangs and seeing "general protection fault" in dmesg as well as what looks like stack traces. I *think* I have a sandybridge processor, but not sure how I confirm, and what my options are if that's the case | 09:49 |
| jjohansen | mthaddon: file a bug, using ubuntu-bug linux | 09:58 |
| jjohansen | it will collect you information | 09:58 |
| mthaddon | ok, thx | 09:58 |
| mthaddon | filed bug#856257 | 10:07 |
| cking | apw, for bug 851141 you enabled the MTRR sanitizer by default - have we seen any negative issues from enabling this? If not, should we consider enabling it for earlier releases as a SRU at some point? | 10:46 |

| cking | its gone bug unaware | 11:26 |
| apw | cking, no your bug is private | 11:26 |
| apw | 2. install all updates (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade) | 11:32 |
| apw | cking, this here really should be a dist-upgrade else you don't get the new packages you need installed | 11:33 |

| apw | tgardner, you pulled wireless-crda into ubuntu didn't you ? there seems to be two packages for it now, see discussion on #ubuntu-devel | 13:37 |
| tgardner | apwsynced from upstream ? | 13:38 |
| tgardner | apw ^ | 13:38 |
| tgardner | or debian | 13:38 |
| apw | tgardner, i'd guess debian, package is call crda and we have wireless-crda as well | 13:38 |
| tgardner | apw, lemme check it out. maybe we can drop wireless-crda | 13:39 |
| apw | tgardner, version numbers wise we seem to have a much never version -- maybe | 13:41 |
| tgardner | apw, it hasn't been updated since April | 13:41 |
| apw | tgardner, ours of theirs | 13:42 |
| tgardner | apw, theirs | 13:42 |
| apw | i'd guess teh DB needs updating more often than that | 13:42 |
| apw | though of course it just may not have been sync'd | 13:42 |
| apw | tgardner, seems that version is the latest in debian, so they are not very active with it | 13:45 |
| apw | tgardner, we didn't need it until lucid or later right ? so perhaps they arn't really using it yet | 13:45 |
| tgardner | apw, I'm wondering why we synced it without an explicit request. | 13:46 |
| apw | tgardner, ahh it seems the regdb is in a separate package, which is in sync | 13:46 |
| tgardner | apw, yes | 13:46 |
| apw | so the combination may be as good as what we have | 13:46 |
| apw | tgardner, yeah i suspect we autosync all of universe without intervention | 13:46 |
| tgardner | apw, the issue when I packaged it for Lucid was that many of the build tools were not in main | 13:47 |
| apw | the suggestion is that our package only varies slightly from the combination of those two. something to consider merging i suspect | 13:47 |
| tgardner | apw, functionally there should be no difference. | 13:49 |
| apw | so perhaps we literally just want to flip the dependancy over | 13:50 |
| * apw leaves it with tgardner :) | 13:50 | |
| realubot | I want to install kernel 2.6.39 in Ubuntu 11.04 but the kernel doesn't seem to be in the kernel PPA? | 13:54 |
| realubot | How do I install the kernel without having to install it from a deb file? | 13:54 |
| realubot | Kernel 2.6.39 is "missing" in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa | 13:55 |
| realubot | Why? | 13:55 |
| apw | that PPA never was the vehicle for those kinds of builds ? | 13:55 |
| apw | that PPA is a staging ground for test builds and experiemental packages | 13:55 |
| realubot | Ok. | 13:56 |
| apw | why do you want 2.6.39 in the first place? thats an odd version to want | 13:56 |
| realubot | apw: Well. There is a bug in the 2.6.38 version så I thought it would be a great idea to upgrade just one step where I have red the bug shall be solved. | 13:57 |
| realubot | *so | 13:57 |

| realubot | "Thanks for confirming that kernel 2.6.39 fixes the issue." | 13:59 |
| tgardner | realubot, use compat-wireless from linux-backports-modules | 13:59 |
| apw | what he said | 13:59 |
| apw | realubot, you are on natty right ... so to get the 2.6.39 wireless you'd want linux-backports-modules-cw-2.6.39-natty-generic | 14:09 |
| * ogasawara back in 20 | 14:11 | |
| realubot | apw: So the bug I linked will be solved using the linux-backports-modules-cw-2.6.39-natty-generic | 14:15 |
| apw | realubot, it is highly likely that if a .39 kernel would solve your issue, and it is a wireless issue, then the backports there are likely to carry the same fix. testing those before moving to unsupported packages is a good idea | 14:20 |
| realubot | apw: Ok, thank you for all help. I'll try it out and see if that solves my wifi problem. Thanks! | 14:23 |
| * tgardner -> lunch | 18:14 | |
| * jjohansen -> lunch | 18:56 | |
