[15:29] <arvin_> Hi, I'm compiling the kernel from mainline and applying the Ubuntu patches, but it's not creating a /boot/abi-* file after installing headers and image from "make deb-pkg" any ideas?
[15:41] <cascardo> make deb-pkg is an upstream feature to create deb packages, they do not conform with how ubuntu produces its deb packages
[15:41] <cascardo> you should use the debian way of building debs, that is, run dpkg-buildpackage
[15:42] <arvin_> i see. Would fakeroot debian/rules binary-headers binary-generic binary-perarch create it?

[15:44] <cascardo> binay-generic should be enough, I guess
[15:47] <arvin_> cascardo: appreciate the feedback thank you. I haven't verified it yet but you're fairly certain that should create the abi-* file if I apply the Ubuntu patches?
[15:49] <arvin_> dpkg-buildpackage looks a lot more appropriatethan the make deb-pkg I was using. thanks again
[15:56] <cascardo> well, gone before I could respond

[18:57] <mispp> hey all, i have an issue with random freezes, been distohopping to see if it something distro related, but seems not. right now i'm using latest ubuntu and system randomly freezes
[18:58] <mispp> anyone knows something about causes in kernel?
[18:58] <mispp> (i've been told before when it's complete freeze, it has to be kernel; journal has nothing usefull)
[18:58] <mispp> i've enabled kdump to see if i can catch something when it happens next time
[18:59] <mispp> it happens on full amd build
[19:34] <TJ-> mispp: have you investigated ACPI issues?
[19:35] <mispp> TJ-: nope
[19:35] <mispp> so, i should disable acpi?
[19:36] <TJ-> mispp: some system firmware is predicated on running Windows and doesn't enable functionality/devices correctly for Linux. ACPI is required, but there's an acpi_osi= workaround that often helps.
[19:36] <TJ-> mispp: see http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html
[19:48] <mispp> with this parameter, it wont boot at all
[22:16] <arvin_> hi, any ideas how to preserve the .config when running fakeroot debian/rules binary? tried everything. can compile kernel using kpkg or make deb-pkg but trying to get this method going to create /boot/abi-* file. Thx
[22:49] <arvin_> i think it's related to "is not clean, please run 'make mrproper'" referring to the folder
[22:50] <arvin_> FAQ's recommendations on removing include/config doesn't work and the git command removes the debian/ folder so when I rerun fakeroot debian/rules binary it recreates those again
[23:23] <arvin_> so the issue was that it doesn't like a .config file in the root source directory. If I remove that and ran fakeroot debian/rules editconfig, then ran fakeroot debian/rules binary-headers binary-generic, all was good
[23:23] <arvin_> if someone could add that to the FAQ
[23:58] <arvin_> everything built well, didn't use the config I wanted though lol. Anyone know the right way of going about this?
