[17:11] <pepee> hi. can someone please tell me how to suggest a patch from upstream that, apparently, hasn't yet been merged in any kernel in ubuntu?
[20:22] <apw> pepee, email it to the kernel-team@ list ... and likely file a bug too with all the details
[20:23] <pepee> apw, there are a few bug reports already related to the patch, this is one of them:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1313804
[20:24] <pepee> apw, thing is, I'm not sure that it hasn't been merged, but I read some kernel changelogs and there is no mention of the patch
[20:26] <apw> pepee, well what is the sha1 for the fix, that we can track
[20:26] <pepee> not even the kernels in the mainline repos have the patch... AFAIK
[20:26] <pepee> no mention in the CHANGES files
[20:27] <pepee> apw, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42960#c57
[20:27] <pepee> comment 63:  fixed in:  66c2b84ba6256bc5399eed45582af9ebb3ba2c15
[20:29] <pepee> err, the only kernel that has the fix is 4.0-rc1
[20:30] <pepee> http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-rc1-vivid/CHANGES  ->  "drm/radeon/dp: Set EDP_CONFIGURATION_SET for bridge chips if necessary"
[20:34] <henrix> pepee: that commit has been tagged for stable kernels, so it will hit our kernels soon
[20:35] <pepee> henrix, ah, k, thanks
[20:35] <henrix> pepee: actually, the 3.16 stable kernel already has that commit queued, so it should be in utopic kernel in the next SRU cycle (a couple of weeks from now)
[20:36] <pepee> I'm using -proposed 3.16 in 14.04, but the fix doesn't appear in apt-get changelog
[20:37] <pepee> ok, thanks apw , henrix 
[20:37] <apw> what henrix said indeed
[20:41] <pepee> tyvm, I'll wait for it and leave a comment in the bug report
[21:47] <kjbsoabga> did usa & israel covertly supply isis with weapons like they did with al-qaeda to justify wars ?
[21:47] <kjbsoabga> did usa excute the creative mess in the middle east like they said they will, does the creative mess include explosion with uncertain responsibles to make people fight?
[21:47] <kjbsoabga> how many human was killed because usa actions included in the creative mess?
[21:47] <kjbsoabga> i was prevented on facebook and twitter, so plz send my qs there to help limiting usa & israel aggression against others.
