=== AceLan_ is now known as AceLan
[10:52] <ali1234> are dkms backports available anywhere?
[10:52] <ali1234> i mean the actual dkms package itself
[11:03] <apw> ali1234, what are you looking for exactly ?
[11:04] <ali1234> dkms 2.6?
[11:04] <ali1234> the problem i have is https://github.com/dell/dkms/issues/32
[11:04] <apw> oh i have not see any of those now
[11:04] <apw> no
[11:04] <ali1234> but this isn't even fixed in master yet
[11:04] <ali1234> although it was fixed once before 8 years ago, they have broken it again
[11:04] <ali1234> if it gets fixed again, i need the fix on 18.04
[11:05] <ali1234> it doesn't seem SRU worthy as it's just really slow
[11:08] <ali1234> i made a dkms package of some drivers: https://launchpad.net/~a-j-buxton/+archive/ubuntu/tbs-dkms
[11:09] <ali1234> and it literally takes 1 hour to uninstall or upgrade it
[11:20] <apw> ali1234, you could just apply that to the source and upload it to your own PPA
[11:49] <ali1234> yes, that will be my last resort though, as i like getting updates :)
[11:50] <apw> in older series you are unlikley to get them, though if you name it right you would get the update
[11:50] <apw> and then get the slow performance back so you would know
[11:50] <ali1234> yes, but without the fix...
[11:50] <apw> or propsoe the fix for SRU
[11:51] <ali1234> happy to do that if you think there's any chance it will be accepted
[11:51] <apw> it _is_ a bug i guess, so you have some hope
[11:51] <apw> it would be easier if upstream had taken the fix for the future
[11:52] <ali1234> yes, i wouldn't propose a patch for it myself, i dont know dkms or perl well enough
[11:54] <ali1234> also, it's a bug that only affects dkms packages that install hundreds of modules... of which mine is currently the only one available for 18.04
[15:43] <s10gopal> apw, jsalisbury when bug 1745646 will be fixed ?  testing for SRU is also done
[15:43] <ubot5> bug 1745646 in linux (Ubuntu Cosmic) "Battery drains when laptop is off (shutdown)" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1745646
[15:44] <jsalisbury> s10gopal, The fix will be in the next set of updates that are available.
[15:46] <jsalisbury> s10gopal, It will be kernel version Ubuntu-4.15.0-23
[15:46] <apw> which is in -proposed already
[15:47] <s10gopal> release date ?
[15:47] <jsalisbury> s10gopal, June 02, I believe.
[15:47] <jsalisbury> err , June 04
[15:48] <apw> that seems rather sooner than i would expect
[15:48] <apw> i think we are in week 2 because of the weeks slip in teh last cycle
[15:48] <jsalisbury> what apw said :-)
[15:48] <apw> i beleive 12th is more likley
