| notmwp | hey folks, could use some help with dmraid and kernels 3.1 and 3.2 on oneric, thanks in advance | 02:23 |
|---|---|---|
| notmwp | specifically, oneric finds my intel fakeraid on stock kernel (3.0.0-14), but when I install 3.1.2 or 3.2.0 from kernel-ppa, it does not | 02:25 |
| notmwp | I have a lot more information including some online discussion threads but don't want to spam the window :) | 02:29 |
| notmwp | hmm, looks like the 3.2 config is missing the "Ubuntu Supplied Third-Party Device Drivers" section, which includes a line to build the dm_raid45 module | 02:36 |
| notmwp | I'm assuming it's also missing some patches to enable these drivers... you guys must wait until late in the kernel release process to add that back in | 02:40 |
| notmwp | aaaand looks like stefan bader is still reviewing dmraid45 for the precise alpha kernel | 02:44 |

| Kurdistan | hi. is this the place to find ubuntu specific patches for kernel? http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/ | 08:37 |
| Kurdistan | if I am using ubuntu 11.10 is it possible to install kernel from 12.10 from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ like 3.2*? | 08:39 |
| Kurdistan | anyone? | 08:41 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: you're better off looking at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git to see what's in the ubuntu kernel, rather than patchwork | 09:03 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: specifically, the ubuntu/ubuntu-{natty,oneiric,precise} trees | 09:04 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, thx. example: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.1.8-precise/ | 09:05 |
| Kurdistan | the patch in that there is that all the patches that are used for that kernel? | 09:05 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: so those are the mainline kernel builds (ie, no ubuntu-specific stuff) | 09:05 |
| Kurdistan | kernels in mainline har vanilla | 09:05 |
| jk- | yep, exactly | 09:05 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, so does patches there are does patches ubuntu uses for 3.1.8? | 09:06 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: there is no ubuntu kernel for v3.1.x | 09:07 |
| Kurdistan | I am thinking download from kernel.org and wanted to know were I easily can find ubuntu specific patches without beeing lost. | 09:07 |
| Kurdistan | :) | 09:07 |
| jk- | oneiric is 3.0, precise is 3.2 | 09:07 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: ok, what are you trying to get done? | 09:07 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, is it possible to make pricise 3.2 work in oneric? | 09:07 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: yeah, should be | 09:08 |
| Kurdistan | I wanted to build newer kernel for 11.10 with ubuntu specific patches | 09:08 |
| Kurdistan | otherwise I know how to install kernel from mainline | 09:08 |
| jk- | ok, if you don't need to modify anything, I'd just suggest installing the precise kernel | 09:08 |
| Kurdistan | but I also wanted to have the patches | 09:08 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: and if you want to see patches, just clone the ubuntu-precise git tree | 09:09 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, :) I do not know how to handle git. | 09:09 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: two-step git introduction: | 09:10 |
| jk- | git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git | 09:10 |
| jk- | cd ubuntu-precise | 09:10 |
| jk- | gitk | 09:10 |
| jk- | ok, three-step :) | 09:10 |
| jk- | .. or just browse on http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git;a=shortlog | 09:11 |
| ohsix | you can just get the diff too, a bit hard to read unapplied though ;] | 09:11 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, :) the link what should I download? | 09:12 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: not sure I understand that question | 09:12 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, you gave me the link. is it something I should download to understand? | 09:12 |
| Kurdistan | or is the patches in that link for specific kernel? | 09:13 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: no, that's just a page that displays the git history of the precise kernel, including diffs | 09:13 |
| jk- | however, if you're just looking to install a 3.2 kernel, you probably don't need to look at any of that | 09:14 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, okey I see. | 09:14 |
| jk- | meta-question: why do you want a 3.2 kernel? | 09:14 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, I am using 11.10. | 09:14 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, :) I wanted to learn how to have newer kernel for 11.10. | 09:14 |
| Kurdistan | thats all. | 09:14 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: i know a couple of folks running the precise kernel on 11.10 | 09:14 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: if you want bleeding-edge, you could try installing precise anyway :) | 09:15 |
| jk- | I hear it's pretty stable now | 09:15 |
| Kurdistan | http://packages.ubuntu.com/ should I then download kernel-image for 3.2 here? | 09:15 |
| ohsix | you can run the mainline kernel builds that are built all the time too | 09:16 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, hehe no no. I wanted to have 11.10 only intressting in newer kernel. | 09:16 |
| Kurdistan | only have 1computer | 09:16 |
| Kurdistan | ohsix, mainline do not have ubuntu patches. does kernel are vanilla. | 09:16 |
| jk- | yeah, installing the precise kernel will give you better results than installing a mainline kernel | 09:17 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, exactly. | 09:17 |
| Kurdistan | :) | 09:17 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, but are precise kernel specific for precise or does it screw up if I use it for oneric? | 09:18 |
| jk- | Kurdistan: well, it *should* work, but it's not something that gets much testing | 09:19 |
| jk- | there may be some incompatibilities between the kernel and userspace | 09:19 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, I understand. so I should download kernel-image from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ ? what more? | 09:19 |
| Kurdistan | jk-, :) okey it seems to not be problem free to upgrade kernel. | 09:20 |
