jamieilesHi folks, I noticed that there is a new trusty-hwe-vivid kernel but the wiki says that it reached EOL on the 4th11:08
jamieilesis that HWE still running?11:08
apwjamieiles, it is officiall EOL so you cannot rely on further updates to that kernel11:21
jamieilesapw: understood, thanks11:23

ATDT911How can I get the source for a specific kernel? When I 'git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-wily.git', it downloads 4.4. I already have a 4.5 kernel, and I need to get 4.6, and I also need to modify pci drivers, so I cannot just install from the .deb files14:13
apwATDT911, depends which kernel you are looking for, but for ubuntu kernles there are tags for the matching version14:17
ATDT911apw; Cloning into 'v4.6-rc6-wily'...14:20
ATDT911fatal: remote error: access denied or repository not exported: /ubuntu/v4.6-rc6-wily14:20
ATDT911I can't find the git repos I suppose. Do they not coincide with the packages in kernel-ppa/mainline?14:21
apwmainline builds are not in a git repo indeed.  the directory from which you downloaded them has a little howto on making the source14:23
ATDT911apw: Thank you. I think I found it with git://kernel.ubuntu.com/virgin/linux.git mainline14:26
apwATDT911, i didn't think we pushed the final versions there, i thought we only pushed the base tags, and those in your case come from linus' tree14:27
ATDT911gotcha, sort of ;)14:38
dsmythiesDoes anybody here know why kernel 4.8-rc4 has not been posted yet on the Ubuntu kernel mailine ppa pages? Reference: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D17:58
dsmythiesnormally it is only a couple of hours behind kernel.org17:58
apwdsmythies, hrm18:01
apwdsmythies, ok ... some kind of firewall issue ... i think resolved, there is a lot of pending bits to flush18:36
ATDT911E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list18:36
ATDT911What do I need to add to sources.list to get the source for the kernel that is installed on my system?18:37
ATDT911nm, needed to apt-get update18:44
dsmythiesapw, O.K. thanks.19:05
apwdsmythies, it looks like it will be overnight catching up19:06
dsmythiesapw, understood.19:06
