14:02:33 <jskarvad> Hi,
14:03:04 <jskarvad> at first info about the F15 PM feature status
14:03:43 <jskarvad> #topic F15 PM feature status
14:05:03 <jskarvad> I discovered BZ#684854 - no tab-bar in powertop 2.x
14:05:50 <jskarvad> I found that the problem is caused by regression in the newwin implementation in ncurses-5.8.
14:06:19 <jskarvad> I created patch and reported as BZ#684849
14:06:41 <jskarvad> It will be resolved by ncurses update.
14:07:24 <jskarvad> Another problem: BZ#663995 - SELinux is preventing /sbin/consoletype from 'ioctl' accesses on the file /var/log/pm-suspend.log
14:07:51 <jskarvad> Suspend / hibernate still works but it generates AVC.
14:09:23 <jskarvad> The problem is that the /var/log/pm-suspend.log is mislabeled after every resume.
14:10:01 <jskarvad> This bug will be reassigned to SELinux.
14:11:42 * thomasj lurks
14:12:57 <jskarvad> There is also tuned BZ#682379 - assumes all ethernet devices are named ethX
14:13:43 <jskarvad> The fix seems to be in git
14:14:13 <jskarvad> Another thing: I finalized EEEPC dynamic FSB reclocking (AKA SHE) patch and got it into tuned git.
14:14:34 <jskarvad> So we need new tuned release for F15.
14:15:55 <jskarvad> The PM feature is currently 90% complete, so we are mostly done.
14:17:16 <jskarvad> Thats all for F15 PM feature, any comments, questions regarding the F15 PM feature?
14:18:34 <jskarvad> Let's move to the PM test day
14:18:49 <jskarvad> #topic PM test day
14:19:28 <jskarvad> The PM test day is planned on 2011-03-24.
14:20:50 <thomasj> Is there already a wiki page for the PM test day?
14:22:53 <jskarvad> thomasj: currently not, there is only simple draft on the feature page, but I will prepare one
14:23:17 <thomasj> jskarvad, thanks, i will be part of the test day.
14:23:48 <jskarvad> thomasj: thanks
14:24:43 <jskarvad> I will probably prepare LiveCD for the event.
14:25:05 <thomasj> awesome
14:25:34 <jskarvad> The most useful will be results from laptop users, but everybody is welcome on the event.
14:26:23 <jskarvad> The test will have multiple parts so the desktop / server users will be able to participate as well on the subset of test - all results are very valuable for us.
14:26:38 <jskarvad> Detailed instructions will be sent later.
14:26:55 * thomasj Dell Studio 17
14:27:01 <thomasj> Laptop :)
14:27:48 <jskarvad> thomasj: there will be simple benchmark, that will read your power consumption from the ACPI
14:28:03 <jskarvad> thomasj: to test various tuned profiles
14:28:15 <thomasj> cool
14:29:10 <jskarvad> That's all for the test day, any more comments, questions regarding the test day?
14:30:19 <jskarvad> #topic news
14:30:58 <jskarvad> There were started interesting project called cpupowerutils, the announcement can be found here:
14:31:09 <jskarvad> https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2011-March/030543.html
14:31:48 <jskarvad> It is based on the cpufrequtils project.
14:32:24 <jskarvad> It is especially usefull for monitoring and debuging of CPU power management.
14:32:56 <jskarvad> It supports cpuidle and turbo boost statistics on new CPUs.
14:33:12 <jskarvad> It would be great to have it in Fedora.
14:34:27 <jskarvad> I will add the request for packaging to our todos page:
14:34:32 <jskarvad> http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/PowerManagement/Todos
14:34:42 * thomasj is a packager, will have a look at it later
14:35:20 <jskarvad> thomasj: it would be great, really thanks, I am a bit out of time now :)
14:35:40 <thomasj> No problem :)
14:37:34 <jskarvad> No more news, switching to other topic
