[01:02] <JamesJRH> Hello. I'm an Ubuntu user. Where can I file feature requests upstream for the Linux kernel? Specifically the USB drivers? Or should I first file it on Launchpad?
[01:04] <JamesJRH> ?
[01:04] <JamesJRH> kengyu___?
[01:09] <JamesJRH> I learn that it is possible in the USB spec to disable ports, but apparently this feature isn't exposed in the USB drivers in the kernel. I'd like to file this as a feature request.
[05:13] <anubhav> apw: Does Ubuntu support Lustre Filesystem?
[11:46] <apw> a/close
[13:28] <ogasawara> tgardner: want to double check before I start that you're not in the process of rebasing q to 3.4-rc2?
[13:29] <tgardner> ogasawara, go ahead. I'm still messing with oneiric and precise
[13:29] <ogasawara> tgardner: ack.  also, I coordinated with the release team to upload tomorrow.
[13:29] <tgardner> ogasawara, ack
[13:33] <tgardner> ogasawara, you're still picking up changes for q made to precise, right ?
[13:33] <ogasawara> tgardner: yep
[13:33] <tgardner> ogasawara, cool, then I don't have to remember
[13:37] <jsalisbury> tgardner, herton, should I submit another patch request for 381b872cf7942ab8c95de156ce403bd906f3915d ?  
[13:38] <tgardner> jsalisbury, nah, I just bundled it all together
[13:38] <jsalisbury> tgardner, just saw it :-)  Thanks!
[13:39] <jsalisbury> tgardner, I build an Oneiric test kernel with those patches, and have the original bug reporter test it, if needed?
[13:40] <tgardner> jsalisbury, I think the get_reason_str() patch is straightforward enough that you needn't bother
[13:40] <jsalisbury> tgardner, ok, thanks.

[16:40] <penguin42> Hi
[16:41] <penguin42> bug 922906 seems to have  a few dupes with the same backtrace; bugs 957846, 977143, 977156   and probably some more

[16:41] <penguin42> oh, someone has duped two of them since I looked at two of them
[16:42] <penguin42> I'd still add 957846 - and possibly some of the much older ones
[16:44] <penguin42> and bugs 760959, 760300 and 748773 all look the same as well to me
[16:44] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 760959 in linux "Kernel Oops - BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000009c; EIP is at __ticket_spin_lock+0x8/0x20" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/760959

[16:49] <jsalisbury> penguin42, Thanks, all the older bugs are now marked as dups
[16:50] <penguin42> jsalisbury: I guess that's something trying to access a thumb drive when it's already out and in the users pocket
[16:50] <jsalisbury> penguin42, It's also a know bug upstream, and is being discussed on LKML
[16:51] <penguin42> nod
[18:36] <ogasawara> jsalisbury: just fyi, posted comment to bug 974982

[18:37] <ogasawara> jsalisbury: can you ping me once you get their testing feedback, I'd like to get that into tomorrow's upload but would prefer positive testing feedback first.
[18:52]  * bjf -> lunch
[19:10] <tgardner> jsalisbury, can you add your standard 'please test upstream" blurb to bug #972823 ?

[19:10] <jsalisbury> tgardner, will do
[19:11] <tgardner> I'm kind of out of ideas on that one
[19:23] <nxvl> hey, in which package can i find compat-wireless?
[19:23] <jsalisbury> ogasawara, oops, missed your message.  I'll let you know when there is feedback.
[19:23] <nxvl> i need to patch it to fix the negative channel issue and i can't find it
[19:28] <ogasawara> nxvl: which release?
[19:29] <nxvl> ogasawara: precise
[19:30] <ogasawara> nxvl: linux-backports-modules-3.2.0 contains a backported v3.3 compat-wireless stack, is that what you're looking for?  or do you just want the kernel package?
[19:31] <nxvl> ogasawara: hmm, that's not installed on my system
[19:31] <ogasawara> nxvl: lbm is an elective install, so not available by default
[19:32] <nxvl> ogasawara: i need to apply http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211.compat08082009.wl_frag+ack_v1.patch and http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/channel-negative-one-maxim.patch to whatever compat-wireless i have on my system
[19:32] <nxvl> ogasawara: and i prefer to re-pack and install rather than make && make install
[19:33] <nxvl> ogasawara: so i was looking for pointer on which package to find the source of the driver that are managing my wireless card ATM
[19:36] <ogasawara> nxvl: you probably are wanting the precise kernel git repo, ie. git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-precise.git
[19:36] <nxvl> ogasawara: will take a look, thanks!
[19:36] <ogasawara> nxvl: I can build you a test kernel if that's easier for you
[19:36] <ogasawara> nxvl: assuming those patches apply cleanly
[19:37] <nxvl> ogasawara: that would be awesome
[19:37] <nxvl> ogasawara: just keep in mind that those patches are for compat-wireless
[19:37] <ogasawara> nxvl: amd64 or i386?
[19:37] <nxvl> ogasawara: amd
[20:18] <ogasawara> nxvl: http://people.canonical.com/~ogasawara/nxvl/precise/amd64/
[20:19] <nxvl> ogasawara: \o/
[20:19] <nxvl> thanks

[20:39] <Amoz> ogasawara, wow, you just built him a complete kernel from sources?
[20:40] <ogasawara> Amoz: we've got pretty robust kernel build resources :)
[20:40] <Amoz> ogasawara, hah, I figured
[20:46] <Amoz> I'm getting this error in dmesg, is it a bug, or is my HDD about to crash?
