| tjaalton | lotuspsychje: have you tried 5.0.0-24 from bionic-proposed? | 11:03 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: no | 11:04 |
| tjaalton | and did you check new bios? | 11:04 |
| tjaalton | if there is one | 11:04 |
| tjaalton | because there have been many dell machines with issues that were fixed by new bios | 11:05 |
| tjaalton | which comes with a new video bios | 11:05 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: didnt test yet no, but i can confirm we have 3 different clevo's now with the flickering, diff bios versions | 11:05 |
| tjaalton | any of them with the latest? | 11:06 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: got one customer comming this afternoon, ill doublecheck | 11:06 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: and ill try to update mine asap | 11:06 |
| tjaalton | try -24 first | 11:07 |
| tjaalton | hmm | 11:07 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: can you tell me the procedure, enable propose in sources? | 11:07 |
| tjaalton | yes, and apt update; apt install linux-generic-hwe-18.04 | 11:09 |
| tjaalton | should pull everything | 11:09 |
| tjaalton | necessary, and not everything from proposed :) | 11:09 |
| lotuspsychje | installing | 11:10 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: flickering aswell | 11:13 |
| tjaalton | ok | 11:14 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: so, 4.15 works, 4.18 works, 5.3 latest works, 19.10 5.2 works | 11:15 |
| tjaalton | what, now 5.2 works? | 11:16 |
| lotuspsychje | i tested a 19.10 live daily | 11:16 |
| tjaalton | did you install it? | 11:16 |
| lotuspsychje | not yet | 11:16 |
| lotuspsychje | but a 19.04 live also flickers so live/real should not matter? | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | did you boot it with fastboot=0 | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | ? | 11:17 |
| lotuspsychje | no | 11:17 |
| lotuspsychje | all iso tests were default | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | then it's not the same | 11:18 |
| tjaalton | fastboot is papering over it for the initial startup, suspend/resume should show flickering again | 11:18 |
| lotuspsychje | i see | 11:18 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: think im gonna roll back to 4.18 for now, got a mail from my reseller suggesting so and remove 5* | 11:30 |
| lotuspsychje | he also doesnt think bios updates will fix this issue | 11:30 |
| tjaalton | so it's not worth it to try? | 11:31 |
| lotuspsychje | bricking bios will also break the warranty | 11:31 |
| lotuspsychje | tjaalton: yeah i will try it on my machine, but for customers ill go to 4.18 for now | 11:31 |
| lotuspsychje | we know its working there right | 11:32 |
| fling | Is it not possible to get a patch easily? | 11:54 |
| tjaalton | fling: look at the commits that touch fs/shiftfs.c, and then git format-patch them | 11:57 |
| tjaalton | it's not a single patch, nine commits in disco kernel | 11:57 |
| fling | tjaalton: do I need git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack ? | 12:41 |
| fling | tjaalton: how deep should I clone it? | 12:41 |
| fling | the tree is HUGE! | 12:42 |
| tjaalton | fling: ubuntu kernel | 12:42 |
| tjaalton | git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/disco or such | 12:43 |
| fling | I want the patch for 4.19.63 or similar | 12:44 |
| tjaalton | then do some work | 12:44 |
| fling | So there is no patch for 4.19.63 right? | 12:45 |
| fling | What is disco kernel? | 12:45 |
| tjaalton | 5.0 | 12:45 |
| tjaalton | or pull it from cosmic (4.18) | 12:45 |
| tjaalton | I don't know what the closest one for 4.19, go search | 12:46 |
| apw | fling, better to bite the bullet and clone linus' tree, and use that as a reference for all of our trees when you clone them | 12:49 |
| fling | tjaalton: I can use 5.0 | 12:53 |
| fling | apw: I have no idea how to perform this | 12:54 |
| apw | fling, mostly people would clone linus tree (git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git) and then when cloning our trees | 12:57 |
| apw | fling, literally say like git clone --reference linux <ubuntu tree> | 12:57 |
| apw | so you only once go get the objects in linus' tree and share them | 12:57 |
| TJ- | I add all the ubuntu repos as remotes | 13:01 |
| apw | TJ-, also tollerable, i tend to need to work on more than one series at once | 13:03 |
| TJ- | apw: I thought that would be case, it's wonderful how flexible git is | 13:03 |
| apw | TJ-, right, that in spades | 13:04 |
| TJ- | I think I've included most Ubuntu releases, the stable tree, Debian, some nvidia-tegra stuff, raspi, and the entire .git is only 4.1GiB | 13:05 |
| apw | TJ-, believeabe, and given that is 5 or 6M commits that is pretty amazing | 13:09 |
| * TJ- nods happily | 13:09 | |
| fling | It takes forever to clone! | 13:09 |
| fling | Is not there a faster way? | 13:09 |
| TJ- | fling: depends on the remote server load | 13:09 |
| apw | fling, the first time, likely yes, one never does it more than once | 13:09 |
| fling | Is 5.0 in git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/disco ? | 13:12 |
| fling | Which branch do I need? | 13:12 |
| apw | fling, which kernel are you runnig on which series | 13:19 |
| fling | apw: I'm running 4.19 on gentoo | 13:27 |
| apw | ok now i am confused, why do you want our kernel | 13:28 |
| fling | I'm trying to get the shiftfs patch. | 13:28 |
| fling | I need one to be able to use shiftfs. | 13:29 |
| fling | How to list commits including fs/shiftfs.c ? :P | 13:31 |
| apw | fling, then yes there are 9ish patches on the master-next branch of the +git/disco which relate to adding shiftfs | 13:31 |
| apw | git log fs/shiftfs.c | 13:31 |
| fling | thanks! | 13:32 |
| fling | How to figure out which version am I getting the patch for? | 13:38 |
| richi235 | fling: try git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-disco.git that should be faster | 13:47 |
| richi235 | for almost every git.launchpad.net repo you can find a kernel.ubuntu.com repo which is a mirror and faster | 13:48 |
| richi235 | browsable at https://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ | 13:50 |
