[09:05] <recn>  hey all... have a question about initrd. i need stdin while in initrd.  "tty" tells me im using /dev/console.  tried installing usbcore and usbhid and i still get nothing from my kbd. what am i doing wrong?
[09:29] <makx> recn: maybe you haven't created that dev yet?


[02:19] <zul> hey ivoks
[07:57] <dilinger> anyone know if there's any sort of ETA for the next dapper kernel update?
[07:58] <dilinger> i see benc updated his git repo 11 hours ago.. i'm hoping i didn't miss the chance to get another sata_mv fix in
[01:21] <zul> dilinger: this week i think
[04:58] <jamescbjr> hello
[06:32] <zul> Mithrandir: goody its working again..ill upload my kernel tonight/tomorrow
[07:16] <dilinger> zul: excellent
[08:40] <jwest-> ubuntu's kernel has no smp :/
[08:43] <thom> which kernel, which architecture, which distribution?
[08:44] <jwest-> ubuntu kernel
[08:44] <jwest-> it isnt smp
[08:44] <thom> now answer the question
[08:44] <thom> uname -r
[08:44] <thom> would be a good start
[08:45] <thom> jwest-: and, edgy or dapper?
[08:45] <jwest-> I could probably apt-get something.
[08:45] <jwest-> ya but I mean by default
[08:45] <jwest-> I'm sure I could compile one as well
[08:45] <ivoks> sigh
[08:45] <thom> i'm sure you could compose sentences which contain useful information, but you don't seem to do so
[08:45] <ivoks> by default ubuntu kernel needs to support many differenct machines
[08:46] <ivoks> hence - no SMP by default
[08:46] <thom> jwest-: this is a question which has been answered many times
[08:46] <ivoks> but there are more than few kernels in repos
[08:46] <ivoks> right
[08:46] <jwest-> smp kernels still run on single cpu machines
[08:47] <ivoks> ever tried that on a 386 proc?
[08:47] <jwest-> but ya... dual core is relatively new.
[08:47] <jwest-> im on a dual core
[08:48] <ivoks> just install linux-686 package
[08:48] <jwest-> ever tried what ?
[08:48] <jwest-> ok
[08:57] <jwest-> ok checking if smp works now
[09:02] <jwest-> there we go smp:)
