Looking for something specific or just checking it out? [08:29] I have a few more power related commits that are not yet pushed out [08:29] janimo: just checking it out [08:29] ok [08:30] janimo, I was just looking briefly at what you have done, what else does the battery driver have that it can export [08:32] lilstevie, I just received a patch yesterday about that. I'll push it out shortly [08:36] ok cool, the few patches I have tried to get them exposed with the tf101/tf201 just break the driver :( === chihchun is now known as zz_chihchun === morphis|away is now known as morphis === morphis is now known as morphis|away === morphis|away is now known as morphis === satellit_ is now known as satellit_e === satellit_e is now known as satellit_ === morphis is now known as morphis|away === morphis|away is now known as morphis [11:06] ogra_: ping, your presence is requested === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha === txwikinger2 is now known as txwikinger === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha [19:57] is it possible to install a softfloat compiler on precise (on arm)? to build e.g. a kernel? [19:57] armhf* [20:01] steev: basically you pass -mfloat-abi=softfp to gcc when building your kernel [20:01] export CFLAGS="-mfloat-abi=softfp" [20:01] export CXXFLAGS="-mfloat-abi=softfp" [20:01] shoudl do it [20:05] xranby_ac100: Uhm. The kernel doesn't need any such thing done. [20:05] infinity: you are right .. [20:05] steev: Compiling kernels should Just Work, regardless. [20:06] steev: the kernel interface is the same for softfloat and hardfloat (the kernel do not use any userspace system librarys) [20:19] yeah, you're right, except there's a minor issue with the 4.6 compiler and hardfloat, so i'd prefer to tell it to use softfloat, or use a softfloat compiler [20:19] http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52445 [20:19] gcc.gnu.org bug 52445 in tree-optimization "[4.6 Regression] conditional store replacement causes segfault in generated code" [Normal,Assigned] [20:23] infinity: btw.. are you at uds right now? [20:23] xranby_ac100: Aye. [20:23] in the testcase writing seminar? [20:24] xranby_ac100: Nope. [20:24] ok well see you around.. i am at the testcase hackatron right now [20:27] steev: Hrm. That bug doesn't seem to imply it's HF-only (or even ARM-only). We can definitely look at backporting the fix to precise, though. [20:28] infinity: you're right, i was going from experience with gentoo which has the issue only with hf compiler (4.6.3) [20:29] i have a bug open on the gentoo end, but sadly, i can't seem to build a debian package of the kernel on my gentoo box [20:31] steev: doko's got a precise SRU for gcc-4.6 pending, I'll ask him to add this backport. Can you file a launchpad bug for reference? [20:31] infinity: i would prefer not to - launchpad loves to spam me with bugmails. i still get mails from a bug that was opened in 2005 [20:32] Unsubscribe from it, if it's still getting comments? [20:33] steev: Anyhow, you could also just build your kernels with gcc-4.7 in a quantal chroot, they'll install just fine on precise. [20:33] If you are the filer, you can't unsubscribe. I've tried. [20:33] GrueMaster: Oh, fair point. [20:33] infinity: heh, actually, it's for maverick [20:33] * infinity filters all his bug mail anyway, so doesn't really notice or care. [20:33] but yeah, the arm box doesn't really have enough space to add a quantal chroot [20:34] steev: I'll poke doko later about adding PR52445 to his precise SRU. We'll need someone to open a bug for tracking/validating it, though. :/ [20:34] * steev points at GrueMaster [20:35] i'll be more than willing to test it, but no, i'm sorry but i refuse to use launchpad [20:35] steev: Do you know which driver(s) get miscompiled? The upstream bug is vague. [20:39] My only real complaint is that a lot of the bugs I filed got ignored until I was no longer doing arm work. Then suddently there appeared to be fixes for me to test, but they were reverted because I no longer do testing. [20:40] off the top of my head the flexcan driver, but if you search gcc 4.6.3 miscompiling arm-linux [20:40] there's a long thread on lakml [20:40] GrueMaster: ditto, except i'm still doing arm - and more specifically, bugs were filed with patches that were ignored until irrelevant [20:41] and by irrelevant, i mean we're no longer using that software because we've forked it because we couldn't wait for the fixes to be added [20:41] Yep. [20:41] it's not a whole lot, but when you appear to not maintain the software, users and developers really develop a distate [20:43] and no offense, but if i've already done the work, and provided a patch, i don't really see why i should also have to pay canonical to get it applied [20:43] steev: Who's asking you to pay to get pathes applied? [20:43] Or patches. [20:44] no one, directly [20:44] I realise it's frustrating to not have every bug addressed, but hyperbole doesn't help. [20:45] (For the record, of all the bugs I've fixed over the years in Ubuntu, exactly one of them was escalated from a paid customer, and it was a bug that I was working on upstream regardless) === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk === morphis is now known as morphis|away [22:20] how'd i add a window manager to the list show at the login screen? === Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha === Ursinha is now known as Ursinha-afk
