[08:50] <flexiondotorg> Morning.
[08:51] <flexiondotorg> apw, You might remember I worked with you briefly way back on VirtualBox video device exclusions?
[08:51] <flexiondotorg> apw, If you have a moment I'd like to draw your attention to a bug I am seeing lots of people starting to encounter now more a test 16.04.

[08:51] <ubot5`> Launchpad bug 1522922 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Screen flickering in Intel i915 driver" [High,Triaged]
[08:52] <flexiondotorg> The opening post identifies 2 commits that can be reverted to resolve the issue.
[08:52] <flexiondotorg> I have one computer I can reproduce the bug on and happy to help test.
[08:52] <flexiondotorg> If this something you can assist with?

[11:02] <xnox> apw, infinity: tested bzimage kernels everywhere and they all boot. In practice I want this in, however it is not critical to be in .0 release, and I'm totally cool with SRUing this at some later point.
[11:02] <xnox> however it would be nice to fix.
[12:24] <kwik> Hey guys, can someone help me understand the output formats of ftrace?  
[12:24] <kwik> I'd specifically like to know how to read the raw, hex or bin modes  
[12:24] <kwik> I can't find a relationship between the output of said modes and the formats in events/.../format, neither the timestamp of the event
[14:37] <lamont> do I care that my syslog is full of these?  (for a long time, I just sometimes get reminded of it..) http://paste.ubuntu.com/15688936/
[14:39] <lamont> yesterday's top contributors to a 21MB syslog: awk '{print $5}' /var/log/syslog.1  |sed 's/\[.*\]//' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
[14:39] <lamont>  193573 kernel:
[14:39] <lamont>   11492 lldpd:
[14:39] <lamont>    5746 snmpd:
[14:39] <lamont>    1091 CRON:
[14:40] <lamont> kernel was only 90.8% of the lines
[14:41] <lamont> and, no, it would surprise me not at all to learn that something was spewing frames onto the wire that were faulty when I finally received them, in this network.
[20:26] <ChunkzZ> right, nothing edited in grub, screen brightness full....battery says 4 hours...acpi_osi= in grub and screen brightness 0% 4 hours....
[20:26] <ChunkzZ> what the hell is going on?
[20:35] <mjg59> Why are you adding acpi_osi?
[20:57] <ChunkzZ> to change my brightness
[20:57] <ChunkzZ> it's the only work for to change my brightness mjg59 
[21:01] <mjg59> ChunkzZ: Well, in the process you're potentially also disabling various power management features
[21:01] <mjg59> What hardware is this?
[21:01] <ChunkzZ> asus x501u
[21:02] <ChunkzZ> I just want my brightness working :(
[21:04] <ChunkzZ> mjg59, so what should I do?
[21:04] <mjg59> Well, the best thing would be to figure out why your brightness control doesn't work
[21:04] <mjg59> Unfortunately that's probably a somewhat hardware-specific issue
[21:05] <mjg59> Outside that, it seems like all options are bad
[21:05] <ChunkzZ> it changes if I add acpi_osi=
[21:05] <ChunkzZ> but in a way it doesn't affect it
[21:05] <ChunkzZ> weird
[21:06] <ChunkzZ> suppose I'll have to go back to winblows :/
[21:06] <ChunkzZ> I love linux too
[21:06] <ChunkzZ> fuck sake!
