JPelletierHi, I'm currently trying to build latest zesty Kernel to enable CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE but I can't find int in the Kernel Configuration13:05
JPelletierDamn I was searching with a typo... found it13:15
JPelletierWhen searching for: CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_CONSOLE I find "Prompt: USB Serial Console device support"  but it's not in the list ounder "USB Serial Converter support" what I'm missing?13:22

LocutusOfBorgnot sure how much 4.13 will change the api, but meh14:55
LocutusOfBorgit should be good until RC114:55
sforsheeLocutusOfBorg: yeah, working on the rebase to 4.13-rc1 as we speak. Fyi, we will be trying to get 4.13 into artful quicker than 4.12, at the late -rc stage.14:57
LocutusOfBorgnice!14:57
LocutusOfBorgthere is a big ongoing porting of such modules in the mainline kernel14:57
LocutusOfBorgso, hopefully they will go upstream one day14:57

chilukapw is the k-team meeting cancelled today?17:08
chilukcan you make sure the http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendars  is correct?17:08
apwchiluk, we haven't had a meeting for a year i don't think17:09
apwchiluk, noone ever attended other than us ...17:09
chilukhmm I was wondering about that.. 17:09
chilukapw.. well I'm interested in attending now..17:10
chilukapw which you may or may not care about.17:10
chilukapw either way the fridge calendar should get updated.17:10
apwchiluk, well don't stand on ceremony, just come here and discuss whatever you care to, whenever17:10
apwchiluk, yep, passing that baton to someone to resolve17:10
chilukyep thanks apw.. any thoughts on the intel-microcode upload?  Has the sru team earmarked anyone in particular to review it?  I'm expecting it will be rbasak.17:11
apwchiluk, i have not heard anyone specific being in the frame no, it is a risky update and causes the fear in most of us17:12
chilukapw yeah.. I figured as much... apw if it makes you feel any better it appears as if most of the firmware stays constant for arches other than skylake and kabylake.17:13
chilukunless of course intel just decided not to bump the revision.17:13
rbasakchiluk: I expect it'll be me. My SRU day is tomorrow.17:17
apwchiluk, yeah one would hope17:17
chilukrbasak apw, the other thing I was curious about was if we would / should backport the skylake /kabylake graphics firmware blobs into linux-firmware... thoughts?17:18
chilukrbasak apw ... specifically https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/firmware 17:19
chilukthe two I think we should consider are the DMC and HUC as both should have power savings.17:20
apwsforshee, ^17:20
chilukI wish I had a contact inside intel to confirm or get comment from about this.17:21
chilukthe page is really not technically verbose so it's hard to tell what they're really doing.17:22
chilukalright off to food with me.17:23

sforsheechiluk: backport to which release? Artful at least looks to be up to date17:33
rbasakchiluk: I'm not sure. What would we gain from doing that?17:42
flocculantjsalisbury: hi - on bug 1704470 you've asked me to test against v4.12 and pointed me to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.13-rc1/ - is 4.13-rc1 what you want me to test against?19:14

patrikHi guys, how do I best (easiest, quickest) go about building the 4.13-rc1 kernel + custom patch?19:19
jsalisburyflocculant, yes it is.  Sorry 4.13-rc1 just came out and I didn't update my email template form 4.12 properly.  I'll fix that.19:20
patrikI've tried the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel guide but can't find a way to get 4.13-rc1 sources with that approach.19:20
jsalisburythanks for the heads up19:20
flocculantjsalisbury: ok - cool, will grab and test that now (ish19:20
patrikCan I just clone the vanilla source and copy the "debian" dir in there? I'm assuming it's not that easy.. :)19:20
jsalisburypatrik, you could use the artful master-next branch, but it's not at 4.13 as of yet, still 4.12 based.19:21
patrikjsalisbury, yeah I noticed that, thanks. Although I do need 4.13-rc1 since this patch is based off it and specific ACPI/PM changes. I've been asked by the dev to try it out on my hardware.19:23

ubot5bugzilla.kernel.org bug 192591 in Hibernation/Suspend "Suspend to idle & ram issues on Dell XPS 13 9365" [Normal,Needinfo]19:24
jsalisburypatrik, in the kteam-tools repository, there is a script called mainline-build-one.  It can be used to build the latest mainline kernel and it "Debianizes" it.19:24
jsalisburypatrik, kteam-toosl is in this git repo:19:25
jsalisburygit://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/+git/kteam-tools19:25
patrikOh cool, thanks a lot! So I just download the 4.13-rc1 tarball, that script, and run it and I'll end up with a nice .deb? :)19:26
jsalisburypatrik, the script is in ~kteam-tools/mainline-build19:26
jsalisburypatrik, if you need help building a kernel, you can open a Launchpad bug and I can try building it for you.19:26
patrikThat would be amazing, are we talking in upcoming minutes or days? :)19:27
jsalisburypatrik, I could build it today.  Just open a bug and post the patch you need built into 4.13-rc1 and I'll build it, package it into a deb and post it for you.19:28
patrikOh great, on it!19:29
jsalisburypatrik, just post the bug number here, in case I don't get to the new bug email timely19:29
patrikhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug ?19:32
jsalisburypatrik, you could use the web interface, or from a terminal run "ubuntu-bug linux"19:33
flocculantjsalisbury: ok - updated that bug now, not convinced it's the kernel tbh (but I'm just a van driver ...) 19:37

jsalisburyflocculant, thanks for testing.  I'll review the bug.19:38
flocculantjsalisbury: ok - thanks - I did mark a similar alsa bug as a dupe (reported it there when apport wouldn't let me report kernel, was using kernel from proposed)19:39
jsalisburyflocculant, ok, thanks19:40
flocculantdidn't touch tags btw as now I'm not sure what the bug is in19:42
jsalisburypatrik, There is a test kernel available at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1705099/20:42
