gpiccoliHi, sorry to bother you. Just a quick question: Ubuntu 14.04.5 kernel is the _same_ of Xenial? I know they are the same version, but just want to be sure they are exactly the same build13:11
apwgpiccoli, they are not exactly the same build, they are the same source but built locally in each release13:11
gpiccoliOK, but source is the same, right apw? This is the important part for me hehehe13:11
gpiccoliThanks very much!13:11
apwthere is potential for configuration differences between them, though i believe there are none for X lts-X13:12
apwthe lts-X tree is built by applying the packaging delta to teh same base tree which was uploaded for X13:13
gpiccoliOkay, very nice! Thanks for the information apw13:18

Guest55667Hello there20:18
Guest55667I am testing 4.7 on my Dell Precision 551020:18
Guest55667I notice there are no dell_wmi and dell_laptop modules included20:18
Guest55667unlike 4.6.x20:18
Guest55667without those, things like special hotkeys don't work20:19
Guest55667is there any known reason for why these modules are missing in 4.7?20:19
gQuigsGuest55667: how did you get 4.7?20:27
Guest55667http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.7/20:28
Guest55667I guess there is no easy answer... thanks!21:12
gQuigssorry, yea, I didn't find an answer21:19
gQuigsif you stay around long enough you might still get an answer though21:20
Guest55667thanks for your effort21:27
Guest55667I'll stick around for another while21:27
rtgGuest55667, enabling CONFIG_DELL_SMBIOS=m did the trick, i.e., CONFIG_DELL_WMI=m was dependent on CONFIG_DELL_SMBIOS. I'll get apw to turn the crank again.21:33
Guest55667cool21:35
Guest55667so there's hope for 4.7.1 then?21:35
Guest55667thanks a lot21:35
