<0> Hi
<0> How to disable power button from shuting down my desktop?
<1> Usiu: /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh
<0> thx
<2> Where can I learn about reverse engineering USB devices?
<3> Hi! I have an External Harddrive connected with an USB cable. I can use it and it's fine, but I would like to fine-tune it, like accoustinc setting, etc. hdparm -i /dev/sda does not work
<3> OUTPUT: hdparm -i /dev/sda
<3> /dev/sda:
<3> HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument
<4> Hello !!



<4> can anybody tell me where spinlocks are used in a uniprocessor kernel ?
<5> hey ppranav
<4> or they arent used at all ??
<4> hi black_Nightmare !!
<4> can anybody tell ?
<6> sorry i don't know
<7> p***word hack?
<6> ?
<8> Why I compile my kernel on a athlon64 system, my bzImage ends up in arch/i386
<8> I chose my processor as Athlon64/..../../K8, is there something else Im ment to do for a X86_64 kernel?
<8> Anyone?
<9> hmm
<10> hi ppl
<11> Heyas. I want to apply a patch to the kernel sources (FBUI). After doing so, is it ok to use the current kernel .config, do a make menuconfig and just check the new option, or messing with the source requires that I do all the configuration manually again ?
<12> Hi everyone
<11> Heyas
<12> I have a QUICK 2 questions...
<12> which IDE is the best for browsing the kernel sources? and any guides which give a fairly detailed explanation on how the kernel goes together?
<9> 5/ctcp Ge0rgy version
<9> arrgh
<10> gb ?
<9> please turn you crappy away messaging too off
<10> ok
<10> normally i don't participate in this channel anyway
<9> tis ok, just try too keep it relevant
<9> you're more then welcoome too loiter & learn or partake in items of interest re the kernel
<9> good help is hard too find
<10> well, i'm a student at the moment...software engineering, if i leran abit more about all that stuff, i would gladly help
<10> but at the moment i'm just occupied... just trying to tune my kernel a bit to get my laptop-battery last a bit longer
<9> no need really, most people can help themselves with a gentle nudge in the correct direction, unfortunately most are too arrogant & lazy too bother helping themselves
<10> well, linux is very much about helping yourself i expierienced ,)
<10> kernel 2.6.16 is a nice piece of software, but in terms of cpufreq it is a step backwards for me compared to 2.6.15
<9> I wouldn't know, I aint compiled n run it yet



<10> what version are you using?
<9> Linux pudgy 2.4.32 #7 Sun Dec 25 16:40:35 WST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
<10> oh...old series...
<9> I tried 2.6 last year & everything broke
<10> oh... ok... 2.6 always worked better for me than 2.4 with one exception :)
<9> box has been stable enough not too need a new kernel since
<10> oh...i see
<10> i try nearly every new version hoping to get this notebook a bit closer to mobility *lol*
<10> are quite happy that swsusp now works again with 2.6.16 and it wakes up without problems.
<9> well I have no need of swsusp
<9> 23:42:52 up 79 days, 9:31, 40 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
<10> well all in all it works not that bad...just a few little things. but one day those centrino-windowsXP-guys will stop laughing! ;)
<10> gb: well, if your machine is a desktop thats quite normal. but if i run out of battery, i have not many choices
<9> my machine is a notebook that usually runs off a solar charged battery
<10> cool ;)
<10> looky wuite funny i think... just like some of these 12 pounds heavy "notebooks" that look like nuclear-powered *lol*
<11> Hey guys, if I want to patch a vanilla 2.6.15 kernel to it's latest patch, 2.6.15.7, do I have to apply all patches sequentially, or does the last one suffice (I see their sizes always grow) ?
<9> hmm no hunting Lamers in here please, go elsewhere for that
<9> ant384: rtfm that comes with the patch, I'm certain the dics tell you that already
<9> docs rather
<11> The kernel.org patches are diff files, they don't come with "documentation", or I'm really blind.
<10> well i have to go now... seems as if i will have to make some further tests with this machine to get a bit more out of it. just consumes too much power *sigh*
<10> bye ppl
<3> Hi! I have an External Harddrive connected with an USB cable. I can use it and it's fine, but I would like to fine-tune it, like accoustinc setting, etc. hdparm -i /dev/sda does not work
<3> Error it gives: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument
<3> Any ideas?
<9> yeah lots you need too rtfm & utilise the correct parameters for hdparm
<3> gb, please specify. I did rtfm, to no avail
<9> msoos: I do not use usb crud, you should be thankful it functions at all, but feel free too use a search engine :)
<3> gb, should I just try to SET the settings, and not try to read them (with -i), i.e. is it possible to set a setting without reading it?
<3> gb, I googled around for at least an hour. And I have been using Linux for 7 years now. I ain't no newbie
<11> msoos, I noticed "gb" is really keen on "rtfm" and lacks specific information. Maybe you should wait for someone else's reply.
<3> :(
<9> ant384: of course you are so much more enlightened then I and have a solution dont you?
<3> Another question: Does 'async' option to mount disable write cache *inside the drive* ? Becasue it seems only to disable the write cache inside the kernel, no?
<3> It is used on USB, so I am not sure if the kernel can switch the write cache on at all, BTW...
<11> gb, I do. It's called stfu-ing when being clueless. I reccomend it.
<9> ant384: you are welcome too employ that method whenever you like especially if all you can do is criticise the only person who has offerred any sort of useful advice, albeit common sense which was obviously not employed
<9> ant384: that was your first & only warning by the way, beware what you say in here
<11> gb, I'm sorry I fed the trolls. Have a merry day.
<13> echo "disable=01" > /proc/mtrr is this command correct ?
<13> wow, this is very curious... make a look to this: http://pastebin.com/717289
<13> strange... if im in my spanish locales (utf8), it give me a error (console, no X)
<13> hum... same problem in the graphical system
<13> time to test :P
