I just applied it, and am black screen on boot up. [15:04] skaet, kamal's i915 patches are wrecking the world. we're working on it. [15:05] skaet, you're kind of late to the party. How often do you update ? [15:06] rtg, , daily. But seem to have had some glitch on the updates. [15:07] skaet, have you booted with -21 to make sure its not an intermittent issue ? [15:09] * skaet experimenting [15:25] * kamal seriously considers just calling in sick today :-( what a mess [15:26] skaet: questions if you could determine whether the problem is in .21 also, that would be *very* helpful (one set of i915 patches went into .21, then another went into .22 -- I'm hoping the problem is isolated to .22) [15:26] s/questions/questions: #1/ [15:27] skaet: question #2: the black screen problem ... does it *stay* black, or does it light up again when it reaches the X login screen? [15:28] Hey can I get a hand compiling a kernel [15:30] kamal, it stays black. Trying get 15.21 on the system now. [15:31] skaet: ok, thanks very much [15:33] smb: thanks for testing, now you could also check a newer mainline kernel to see if it's fixed there :) [15:35] tjaalton, Yeah, yeah.

They are most likely dealt with but there isn't enough information, and its too late to be testing with this release [15:50] instead I am just going to set up a ppa and point people to that [15:51] jjohansen, there appears to be some effort going into IMA for 3.6 (and I assume 3.7). [15:51] rtg: yep, there is the ima appraisal stuff, and a few other patches [15:52] jjohansen, IMA is on my list of things to get smart about for ubuntu-r [15:56] rtg: ah mine too [15:57] jjohansen, I'm convinced that its gonna be required in certain scenarios. The fed already has an attestation specification that I was reading about last week. [15:59] rtg: yeah I think so too [15:59] jjohansen: ack, thanks [16:08] * ppisati -> gym [16:11] just hope IMA doesn't suck loads of memory like it used to [16:12] cking, lets hope it doesn't just plain suck like it used to :) [16:13] * herton -> lunch [16:13] heh [16:13] cking: that has been fixed, enabling it does have some overhead, it expands the inode some, but the radix tree has been replaced with an rbtree, and there have been several locking improvements as well [16:14] jjohansen, ah good, the radix tree was a memory hogger [16:15] cking: yep, and so was having to track each inode externally. Expanding the inode reduced the total overall cost at the expense of chewing up 16 or so bytes/inode even if ima is not in use [16:16] jjohansen, ok, so some minor impact on small memory systems then [16:17] cking: yes unfortunately [16:18] cking: this isn't exactly what is there now but it is a pretty good guide to how the fixes changed it https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/18/644 [16:19] nice [16:26] Hello all.
