apwkengyu, i have a query re the verisoning of fwts, as this is not yet in debian should the version not actually be like 0.26.00-0ubuntu110:01
kengyuapw, I think this is a good idea (though fwts is not in Debian yet). BTW we are the upstream too, for now we have not made any distro-specific patch, so the suffix is always the lowest. But the suffix like -0ubuntu1 is helpful to avoid any potential confusion IMO. Thanks for spotting this. I will use the -0ubuntu1 suffix from the next upload.10:35

jibelwhere can I find latest 3.7 for quantal?  Latest build for Quantal in kernel-ppa is 3.7rc2 . I want to check if I reproduce bug 108843314:16
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1088433 in linux (Ubuntu) "PERCPU: allocation failed when loading module kvm" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/108843314:16
rtgjibel, that one goes back at least as far as 3.2 on certain machines.14:17
rtgjibel, https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/r-lts-backport14:18
jibelrtg, on this machine, I don't find trace of this message in logs before to 3.5.0-19, is it something I should worry about? it doesn't seem to impact the behavior of the system14:26
rtgjibel, it appears to be benign, but then I have not actually tested the kvm module for functionality.14:34
* rtg back on in a bit14:36
rtgcking, did you see this on LKML ? might have some impact on fwts: "[PATCH] ACPI: add documentation about ACPI 5 enumeration"15:09

ckingI so love ACPI 515:13

shadeslayersforshee: I heard you were working on getting everything working on the Macbook Pro15:28
shadeslayersforshee: if you have stuff to test in raring, feel free to send them my way :)15:28
sforsheeshadeslayer, which model do you have? Most of the work I'm doing now with the macs is centered on Broadcom wireless15:29
shadeslayerI have the 8,215:29
sforsheeyeah, the wireless on that one is not very good15:29
shadeslayer*nod*15:29
shadeslayerif by not very good you mean doesn't work out of the box, then yeah, it's not very good :P15:30
sforsheeI've got a different model with the same wireless that I plan to work with, but that wireless chipset is difficult15:30
sforsheewe have a very limited understanding of the phy15:30
shadeslayerI see15:31
shadeslayersforshee: I can get wireless to work with hacks, what's more problematic for me is video drivers15:31
shadeslayerthat requires kernel patching and what not15:31
sforsheeshadeslayer, I assume then you're trying to do native EFI boot? I think graphics works okay under CSM on that machine.15:32
shadeslayeryeah, native EFI :)15:33
* shadeslayer has to use fbdev right now15:33
sforsheeso 3.8 should have patches that let you the radeon with modesetting under EFI boot15:34
sforsheeswitching to the integrated card still isn't going to work though15:34
=== bdmurray_ is now known as bdmurray
bjfbrendand, do you have a Dell Latitude E6410 in your lab?16:17
shadeslayersforshee: oh awesome, still no 3.8 debs on http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ though16:20
shadeslayerso I'll have to wait16:20
brendandbjf - indeed. with nvidia graphics16:20
sforsheeshadeslayer, there's no 3.8 yet. 3.7 is still in progress ;-)16:20
sforsheethe patches are queued up to go into 3.8 right now though16:20
shadeslayerah16:21
bjfbrendand, ah, i want intel graphics16:21
bjfbrendand, how about a lenovo edge with intel graphics?16:21
shadeslayersforshee: so basically in 3.8 I can boot with i915.modeset=0 and ATi will work?16:21
sforsheethe value if i915.modeset=0 should have no impact on your radeon graphics16:22
sforshee*of16:22
brendandbjf - which Edge?16:22
bjfbrendand: 0301GXG ? does that make sense?16:23
brendandbjf - looks like an SKU16:24
bjfbrendand, i'm using the dmi info in a bug and that's about as good as i'm getting right now16:24
bjfbrendand, thanks anyway. if i get more info i'll ping you again.16:25
brendandbjf - i think i found it. if you point me to the bug i can probably narrow it down16:25
brendandbjf - google says that an Edge 15, but we might have a few16:25
bjfbrendand, bug #106762216:26
shadeslayersforshee: I see, it's mostly that if I boot with KMS the EFI VGA and Intel drivers conflict16:26
shadeslayerand it just hangs16:26
shadeslayersforshee: any chance we can see a kernel in raring with said patches?16:26
sforsheeshadeslayer, I never had to use i915.modeset=0, fwiw16:27
shadeslayersforshee: do you have hybrid graphics or just the intel chip?16:28
sforsheeif the patches are in 3.8 then raring will get them when we rebase the kernel onto 3.816:28
shadeslayerI see16:28
sforsheeshadeslayer, what work I've done with the macbook hybrid graphics was done on a macbook pro 8,2. I don't have that machine anymore however.16:29
shadeslayerah16:29
brendandbjf - sure that's the right bug?16:29
shadeslayersforshee: right now I actually boot with radeon.modeset=0 , without it I get : "fb: conflicting fb hw usage radeondrmfb vs EFI VGA - removing generic driver"16:30
bjfbrendand, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/108762216:30
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1087622 in linux (Ubuntu) "Linux kernel 3.5.0-20 won't boot [unable to handle kernel paging request at f91fe4fc in trace_event_raw_init+0xb/0x20]" [Undecided,Confirmed]16:30
bjfbrendand, sorry about that16:30
brendandbjf - bingo!16:32
bjfhenrix, ^ we might have the HW to repro the problem16:32
brendandbjf - well, i've got here an Edge 15 with Intel graphics, PCI ID matches16:33
bjfbrendand, can we get someone to install the quantal on that and then try the latest -proposed kernel?16:33
brendandbjf - ah right, it's a matter of not booting. no problem16:34
bjfbrendand, we're trying to get this fixed up for the 12.04.2 release16:34
sforsheeshadeslayer, that message isn't anything to be concerned about *if* the modesetting driver is working (but it's not in your case). It's basically just saying that the radeon driver is trying to use the same memory resources as the EFI fb driver and that radeon is being given precedence.16:36
shadeslayeroh16:36
shadeslayerinterestingly, the boot just stops after that16:36
shadeslayercan't even switch to a TTY16:36
sforsheeshadeslayer, it's not that the boot stops, it's just that your video is completely hosed16:37
shadeslayeroh ... I wouldn't know, since no sound is played ( because I don't have autologin )16:37
shadeslayersforshee: any tips on how to avoid that?16:38
sforsheeshadeslayer, either use bios-compatible boot or wait for 3.816:38
shadeslayeralright, will wait for 3.816:38

infinitybjf / henrix: Mayday.  I may have just released the lucid SRU to -updates when I meant to release the hardy one.18:37
henrixouch!18:38
bjfinfinity, meh, probably not a big deal 18:38
infinityIt only fixes a single bug, and is only lacking cert-testing on the workflow.18:39
infinityRegression and the rest were done.18:39
henrixinfinity: i believe its an CVE, so we may want to ping jj...?18:40
infinityHe already did his signoff too, but yeah.18:40
henrixoh, ok18:40
infinityThe only unfinished task was Brendan's.18:40
infinitySo, probably not a big deal.18:41
infinityBut since I can't unwind this...18:41
infinityapw: Want to ring up Brendan and ask him to join in on this conversation?18:41
infinityAs it is, I'm just going to mark it released, cause there's not a whole bunch else I can do, but if Brendan can fast-track the hwcert stuff and make sure it's not somehow weirdly broken, that would be lovely.18:43
bjfinfinity, that patch is for ipv6. i doubt they do any ipv6 testing18:44
infinityYeah, you're likely right.18:45
infinityAnd if there were miscompiled binaries, the regression-testing would have picked it up.18:45
bjfinfinity, i think all is fine18:45
infinityI'm not higely concerned.18:45
infinityJust annoyed with myself for fat-fingering.18:45
infinityWell, fat-braining?18:45
henrixok, so... we'll leave it as it is and wait for brendand to finish the cert task. 18:46
henrixcorrect?18:47
bjfhenrix, infinity can mark his task as fix released18:47
infinityI already did.18:47
infinitySince it is.18:47

infinityI look forward to a few weeks without working on Mondays...18:49
