[11:08] <jamieiles> Hi folks, I noticed that there is a new trusty-hwe-vivid kernel but the wiki says that it reached EOL on the 4th
[11:08] <jamieiles> is that HWE still running?
[11:21] <apw> jamieiles, it is officiall EOL so you cannot rely on further updates to that kernel
[11:23] <jamieiles> apw: understood, thanks
[14:13] <ATDT911> How 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 files
[14:17] <apw> ATDT911, depends which kernel you are looking for, but for ubuntu kernles there are tags for the matching version
[14:20] <ATDT911> apw; Cloning into 'v4.6-rc6-wily'...
[14:20] <ATDT911> fatal: remote error: access denied or repository not exported: /ubuntu/v4.6-rc6-wily
[14:21] <ATDT911> I can't find the git repos I suppose. Do they not coincide with the packages in kernel-ppa/mainline?
[14:23] <apw> mainline builds are not in a git repo indeed.  the directory from which you downloaded them has a little howto on making the source
[14:26] <ATDT911> apw: Thank you. I think I found it with git://kernel.ubuntu.com/virgin/linux.git mainline
[14:27] <apw> ATDT911, 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' tree
[14:38] <ATDT911> gotcha, sort of ;)
[17:58] <dsmythies> Does 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=D
[17:58] <dsmythies> normally it is only a couple of hours behind kernel.org
[18:01] <apw> dsmythies, hrm
[18:36] <apw> dsmythies, ok ... some kind of firewall issue ... i think resolved, there is a lot of pending bits to flush
[18:36] <ATDT911> E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
[18:37] <ATDT911> What do I need to add to sources.list to get the source for the kernel that is installed on my system?
[18:44] <ATDT911> nm, needed to apt-get update
[19:05] <dsmythies> apw, O.K. thanks.
[19:06] <apw> dsmythies, it looks like it will be overnight catching up
[19:06] <dsmythies> apw, understood.
