keesapw: oh, aufs went back in?02:05
Kanoapw: do i see it right, you updated aufs code but then disabled it?04:33
Kanoi need aufs04:33
Kanoi would never disable it...04:33
Kanousally you could change casper to use the default you want04:53
Kanolive-initramfs works with aufs04:53

brendandherton - hi14:58
hertonbrendand, hi15:00
brendandherton, when do you think the oneiric kernel will complete verification? monday or tuesday?15:00
hertonbrendand, I have to check with brad, but I think on Monday he will "release" it15:01
brendandherton - cool, that's what i was hoping. we need a couple of days to test it again15:01
* herton -> lunch15:06
* ogasawara back in 2015:21

vanhoofogasawara: ping when you're back (no rush)17:02
ogasawaravanhoof: I'm here17:02
vanhoofogasawara: ah, my timestamps were off17:02
vanhoofogasawara: got time for a quick q on a storage driver update in a stable release?17:02
ogasawaravanhoof: sure17:02
vanhoofogasawara: cool17:02
vanhoofogasawara: so driver in question in isci (patsburg sas), we pulled it in late for Oneiric17:03
vanhoofworks for the most part, installer shows disks, live goes on17:03
vanhoofhowever some issues have been cropping up in the s3/s4 space, and the rumour is, a rather large patch-set will be heading our way soon to fix all of these problems17:03
vanhoofwondering what your thoughts are here17:04
vanhoofi initially thought lbm17:04
vanhoofbut, this is unfortunately a driver that needs to be loaded up in the initramfs as well17:04
vanhoof(patch so large, i'm highly skeptical it'll fly for SRU)17:04
ogasawaravanhoof: hrm, this may have to be one of those wait and see how large and intrusive the patches really are17:05
vanhoofogasawara: the other idea I had was two tiered17:06
vanhoofleave what we have now in place (will get you installed), and then you can electively install an updated isci driver via lbm, which (I think) would then pack it into a new initrd17:06
ogasawaravanhoof: that sounds safer to me17:08
vanhoofogasawara: would that work?17:08
vanhoofogasawara: can something from lbm be packed into an initrd?17:08
* vanhoof has never tried17:08
ogasawaravanhoof: I've never investigated to confirm17:09
ogasawaravanhoof: you going to be at the sprint next week?  we can throw this as a topic onto the agenda17:10
vanhoofogasawara: yup, I will be17:10
ogasawaravanhoof: added17:16
vanhoofogasawara: awesome, thanks17:18
ogasawaravanhoof: I'm almost thinking that if the patches only touch the isci driver, you might be able to get it through as a normal kernel SRU (ie not have to go the LBM route).17:19
ogasawaravanhoof: the reason I'm saying this is the driver is already marked EXPERIMENTAL17:20
vanhoofogasawara: yeah, I guess its just a matter of "let us see the patches" :D17:20
vanhoofyeah true17:20
ogasawaravanhoof: so given enough testing to provide a bit of confidence, you could probably have a convincing enough argument for SRU17:20
vanhoofogasawara: ack17:21
vanhoofogasawara: we do have a few samples in house w/ this controller17:22

mfilipehi! I'm trying test the latest kernel for oneiric. so, confirm for me, the latest kernel to oneiric is 3.2-rc4? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/17:41
mfilipewithout daily kernels17:42
mfilipeI'm trying to use these kernels only for debug propose: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/91173717:47
ubot2`Launchpad bug 911737 in linux "rtl8192se wireless doesn't get IP through DHCP" [Medium,Incomplete]17:47
mfilipebut I want know who is the latest kernel for debug? ignore the daily kernels 17:47
ogasawaramfilipe: v3.2 is the latest - http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2-precise/17:49
ogasawaramfilipe: the "-precise" just indicates which config was used17:50
mfilipeogasawara, but I can install it on oneiric?17:50
ogasawaramfilipe: yah, should be fine17:50
mfilipeogasawara, thanks a lot! :)17:50
