| 14:17:08 | mallum | prpplague_ols: hey, I sitting next to my cat |
| 14:17:30 | prpplague_ols | mallum: there was a party at the hotel last night and alot of the kernel gurus were consuming large amounts of tequilla |
| 14:17:38 | mallum | prpplague_ols: is there quite a few UK people there ? |
| 14:17:49 | mallum | prpplague_ols: any girls at the party ? |

| 14:19:20 | prpplague_ols | mallum: lol |
| 14:19:57 | mallum | ;) |
| 14:20:03 | mallum | prpplague_ols: your not a goth are you ? |

| 14:21:59 | prpplague_ols | mallum: yea, but that doesn't stop me from looking, lol |
| 14:22:14 | mallum | prpplague_ols: yeah I just got engaged :)) |
| 14:32:34 | ntropy | CosmicPenguin: you around? |
| 16:59:29 | ][N-Flux | is away: in the real world |
| 21:40:27 | ntropy | cpenguin_home: hey |
| 21:40:39 | ntropy | cpenguin_home: could ya do me a favor? |
| 21:48:47 | cpenguin_home | ntropy: I'll try |
| 22:07:25 | cpenguin_home | ntropy: you needed a favor? |
| 22:42:25 | ntropy | cpenguin_home: so, you got a recent buildroot to make a bootable kernel, correct? |
| 22:42:33 | ntropy | can you email that kernel to me by chance? |
| 22:42:38 | ntropy | or post it somewhere |
| 22:54:31 | cpenguin_home | Did you figure out why your kernel was oopsing? |
| 22:55:37 | ntropy | no |
| 22:55:38 | ntropy | i havent |
| 22:55:51 | ntropy | i rebuilt it from scratch just now from a fresh buildroot |
| 22:55:55 | ntropy | and it's flashing right now |
| 22:56:04 | ntropy | so we'll see if it works shortly |
| 22:56:16 | ntropy | did you change the Makefile at all? |
| 22:58:52 | cpenguin_home | ntropy: nope |
| 22:59:01 | ntropy | k, neither did i |
| 22:59:02 | cpenguin_home | didn't you get the backtrace on your oops? |
| 22:59:03 | ntropy | so we'll see here |
| 22:59:07 | ntropy | yeah, i did. |
| 22:59:42 | ntropy | but i dont know the code all that well yet |
| 23:00:10 | ntropy | nope |
| 23:00:13 | ntropy | still oops's |

| 23:02:32 | ntropy | arg. |
| 23:04:27 | ntropy | any suggestion? |
| 23:05:26 | ntropy | well, could you post your zImage so i could see if it's my build environment? |
| 23:10:21 | cpenguin_home | ntropy: why did you oops? |
| 23:11:16 | ntropy | Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000001d0 |
| 23:12:41 | cpenguin_home | what version are you using? |
| 23:12:56 | ntropy | Linux version 2.4.18-rmk7-tux1 (ntropy@shadow.fallingsnow.net) (gcc version 3.1) |
| 23:17:24 | ntropy | you? |
| 23:18:48 | ntropy | you just build your kernel with the gcc that buildroot builds, right? |
| 23:19:28 | ntropy | s/build/built/ |
| 23:19:43 | cpenguin_home | 2.4.18 too |
| 23:20:12 | cpenguin_home | The thing about this is - you are crashing in a very odd place - its not like a ton of people have been messing with the framebuffer lately |
| 23:21:57 | ntropy | yeah |
| 23:22:18 | ntropy | i'm not really sure what to make of it |
| 23:22:28 | ntropy | wihch is why i want to test it with another similarly built kernel |
| 23:22:34 | ntropy | to find out if it's teh build environment |
| 23:23:15 | cpenguin_home | I'm a tad busy at the moment, but I'll try to stick one on a ftp site somewhere in a sec |
| 23:23:33 | ntropy | k |
