| Fujitsu | Hey ivoks. | 08:42 |
| ivoks | hi Fujitsu | 08:44 |
| ivoks | BenC: 2.6.18's generic.c contains some stuff about jmicron, which our kernel doesn't.... | 08:46 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: hi | 08:51 |
| ivoks | hi marcin_ant | 08:52 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I'm not kernel guru and developer - just simple user - but I compiled 2.6.18 (vanilla) on dapper two days ago | 08:52 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: and? | 08:52 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I hoped that it could fix something with jmicron - and... nothing | 08:52 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: this controller didn't work | 08:52 |
| ivoks | hm... | 08:53 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but I'm not sure if I did everything properly | 08:53 |
| ivoks | are you talking about SATA or IDE part of controller? | 08:53 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: because there are reports that with 2.6.18 jmicron is operational | 08:53 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: IDE | 08:53 |
| ivoks | acording to 2.6.18 source, jmicron IDE controller should work with generic IDE module | 08:54 |
| ivoks | and SATA controller should work with ahci | 08:54 |
| ivoks | sata part is fixed in edgy's kernel | 08:54 |
| marcin_ant | then I just propably messed something in kernel config | 08:54 |
| Mithrandir | BenC: we're closing for beta, unless it's _really_ needed, I'd be happier if you made that upload after beta is out. | 08:54 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: well it's nice but it doesn't solve problem :( | 08:55 |
| ivoks | i'll test this change in generic, to see if it works | 08:55 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: if you got sata DVD/CD then in 90% of cases you don't care about jmicron issue you can just plug drive into ICH8 | 08:55 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: i know | 08:55 |
| ivoks | but ich8 doesn't work either for me | 08:56 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: with sata? | 08:56 |
| ivoks | ich8 sata controller doesn't work for me, right | 08:56 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: at all or just with some kind of sata cd/dvd? | 08:56 |
| ivoks | at all | 08:57 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: strange... | 08:57 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: works for you? | 08:57 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I got asus p5b and it works without any problems with sata hdd | 08:57 |
| ivoks | i have p5b too :) | 08:57 |
| ivoks | what's your bios config for ich8? | 08:57 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I'm running dapper on this machine installed via instlux | 08:57 |
| ivoks | i don't care about instlux | 08:57 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: now I'm at work so I cannot tell you what is my config in 100% | 08:58 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but tell me what hardware config you got... | 08:58 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: asus p5b and what hdd you got? | 08:58 |
| ivoks | wd | 08:59 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: sata? | 08:59 |
| ivoks | of course | 08:59 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: well it's not so obvious ;) I got 4 drives in my case with p5b and only one is sata... | 09:00 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: ok anyway then what else? cd/dvd... sata/ide? | 09:00 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: fdd? usb drive? | 09:00 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: p5b has only one IDE port | 09:01 |
| ivoks | how could you put 3 drivers on one ide port? | 09:01 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: sure but I got additional ATA 100 controller on cmd controller | 09:01 |
| marcin_ant | controller/chipset | 09:02 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: on pci | 09:02 |
| ivoks | well, i have ide cd, sata disk, fdd | 09:02 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: anyway I hoped that I will be able to run p5b only with pata drives - and unfortunately I couldnt boot from additional controller and had to buy sata hdd - but's another story | 09:03 |
| === lfittl [n=lfittl@194.50.115.210] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| marcin_ant | ivoks: ok, can you boot from hdd ? | 09:03 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: to any system? windows or something? | 09:03 |
| ivoks | no | 09:03 |
| ivoks | grub freezes :/ | 09:03 |
| marcin_ant | so you can boot from this hdd and then you stop on grub right? | 09:04 |
| ivoks | anyway, i think this part of generic.c is key to this issue | 09:04 |
| marcin_ant | (it means that technically your bios is configured properly to boot from sata hdd) | 09:05 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: ahm... i know that :) | 09:05 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: i'm not here trying to get help :) | 09:05 |
| ivoks | my system works, i only want to make it work to others | 09:06 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: well sure but It's strange that you cannot boot to linux at all | 09:07 |
| ivoks | i can boot... i don't need disk to boot to it | 09:07 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: i got workable dapper and my grub is working properly | 09:07 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: so this is why I ask because I'm trying to understand what can be broken on your machine | 09:08 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: my disk is connected to jmicron, not ich8 | 09:08 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but you said that "but ich8 doesn't work either for me" | 09:09 |
| ivoks | it doesn't, but that's another issue | 09:09 |
| ivoks | i'm working on jmicron now | 09:09 |
| ivoks | atm, i don't care about ich8 | 09:09 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: ok I see | 09:09 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I just thought that you got your primary hdd connected to ich8 and cd/dvd to jmicron... | 09:10 |
| ivoks | everything is connected to jmicron | 09:10 |
| ivoks | cd to ide port, and disk to sata port | 09:11 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: anyway on my mobo I got one sata hdd connected to ich8 and it's fully operational | 09:11 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: than I got IDE cd/dvd connected to jmicron - which doesn't work with linux | 09:11 |
| ivoks | that means that ich8 works, great | 09:11 |
| ivoks | i'm hoping to solve that issue now | 09:12 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: and I got three PATA hd drives connected to additional IDE controlled on PCI | 09:12 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: which are also functional although I cannot boot from any of these drives | 09:12 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but it's propably problem with this particular controller and maybe with p5b bios... and it's not important now | 09:13 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: another thing that doesn't work on this mobo is gigabyte LAN | 09:13 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: this mobo has two NIC's but only one works | 09:14 |
| ivoks | interesting... i have only one nic on p5b | 09:14 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: hmmm | 09:14 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I got Asus p5b deluxe with wi-fi | 09:15 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: maybe only this model has two NIC's | 09:15 |
| === ivoks is now known as ivoks_away | ||
| ph8 | i think the deluxe is indeed the only one with 2 nics | 09:40 |

| ivoks | marcin_ant: ping | 10:28 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: pong | 10:28 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: could you, when you get home, write down your bios config, and send it to me? | 10:29 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: my ich8 just doesn't work :/ | 10:29 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I see you fixed your jmicron :) | 10:29 |
| ivoks | yes... it works | 10:29 |
| ivoks | and patch is trivial | 10:29 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: sure - but I can tell you pretty simple thing | 10:29 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I had problems with kernel from edgy I couldn't boot machine at all | 10:30 |
| ivoks | that's cause CD didn't work | 10:30 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: then I set just default bios settings | 10:30 |
| marcin_ant | and then in boot section | 10:31 |
| marcin_ant | I just selected my hdd drive and it worked | 10:31 |
| marcin_ant | maybe you could try this too | 10:31 |
| ivoks | heh... | 10:31 |
| marcin_ant | question is - do you have problems with ich8 in linux kernel or in bios? | 10:32 |
| ivoks | in linux kernel | 10:32 |
| ivoks | if i connect disk to ich8, grub starts on it | 10:32 |
| ivoks | but kernel fails to detect cd | 10:32 |
| ivoks | it reports that ata1 is slow to respond | 10:33 |
| ivoks | and that drive failed to identify | 10:33 |
| marcin_ant | ok but why cd? | 10:33 |
| ivoks | sorry... not CD, disk | 10:33 |
| marcin_ant | hmm strange | 10:33 |
| marcin_ant | it can be something in bios... | 10:34 |
| marcin_ant | with sata settings... it shoud be set to enhanced afair | 10:34 |
| ivoks | it can, of course... | 10:34 |
| ivoks | i tried all possible settings | 10:34 |
| marcin_ant | ok I will send my settings to you | 10:34 |
| ivoks | k, thanks | 10:34 |
| marcin_ant | I will be able to do this at about 20-21:00 (I'm in Poland and now is 10:35 here) | 10:35 |
| ivoks | same time in croatia :) | 10:35 |
| marcin_ant | ok so I will try to catch you here at evening | 10:36 |
| ivoks | you could send it to email | 10:36 |
| ivoks | ivoks@grad.hr | 10:36 |
| ivoks | or ubuntu.com | 10:36 |
| ivoks | i don't know if i'll be here at that time | 10:36 |
| marcin_ant | ok | 10:36 |
| marcin_ant | this patch is for 2.6.18? | 10:37 |
| ivoks | no, for edgy kernel | 10:37 |
| ivoks | it's taken out of 2.6.18 | 10:37 |
| marcin_ant | ehhh I don't want to try edgy yet :( | 10:38 |
| marcin_ant | I did few days ago and couldn't boot at all | 10:38 |
| ivoks | your SATA jmicron must be set up as AHCI, and IDE must be enabled in BIOS | 10:38 |
| ivoks | i think p5b has bugs | 10:38 |
| marcin_ant | kernel froze on setting ACPI on CPU or something like this... | 10:39 |
| ivoks | no, it breaks on something else... | 10:39 |
| ivoks | er... ich8 works for you with dapper? | 10:39 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: yes with dapper | 10:40 |
| ivoks | khm... | 10:40 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but I also had edgy for single day ;) | 10:40 |
| ivoks | and ich8 worked? | 10:40 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: yes | 10:40 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but not after dist-upgrade | 10:40 |
| ivoks | heh... interesting | 10:40 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I installed dapper once with instlux | 10:40 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: then upgraded with 'upgrade-manager' to edgy | 10:41 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: and it was ok | 10:41 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: then I next day I did dist-upgrade and couldn't boot | 10:41 |
| ivoks | that sounds like regression | 10:41 |
| ivoks | so, conclusion is that ich8 work with dapper, but not with edgy | 10:42 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: then I installed edgy from daily build 21.09.2006 | 10:42 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: on this disk on another machine with some via chipset and PIV 3GHz | 10:43 |
| ivoks | that's irrelevant information | 10:43 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but when I connected this disk at home to asus p5b | 10:43 |
| ivoks | ...yes? | 10:43 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I couldn't boot at all | 10:43 |
| ivoks | that's it | 10:43 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I could see grub | 10:43 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: then some messages about ACPI and usb errors | 10:44 |
| ivoks | hehehe | 10:44 |
| ivoks | that's it | 10:44 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I don't remember them... | 10:44 |
| ivoks | edgy's kernel has regression | 10:44 |
| ivoks | that would mean if i add this patch to dapper | 10:44 |
| ivoks | i should be able to boot from ich8 and i should be able to see CD | 10:44 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: so I was so annoyed and angry that I switched to windows | 10:45 |
| ivoks | i will try that later today | 10:45 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: and then I installed dapper again via instlux | 10:45 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: cause CDrom didn't work? | 10:45 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: yes cd rom doesn't work on dapper | 10:45 |
| ivoks | hehe, thanks million times | 10:45 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: ich8 can work - jmicron cannot | 10:46 |
| ivoks | i know where to find bug now | 10:46 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: and because I don;t have separate partition for another linux distro (edgy) I don't want to upgrade to edgy yet | 10:46 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: because I don't want to mess with my current workable distro.. I need to work on this | 10:47 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: but I would like to have an ability to use cd/dvd in dapper too | 10:47 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: it's a bit annoying that I have to switch to windows to prepare backups :) | 10:48 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant: this fix for IDE controller is trivial; i think i could be backported | 10:48 |
| ivoks | i'm not so sure about SATA part | 10:48 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: well it's sata part is propably really not so important | 10:49 |
| ivoks | well... pb5 has exterior sata port that's on jmicron controller | 10:50 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: btw if you have some free time could you take a look at #62206? | 10:50 |
| ivoks | atm i don't have X :) | 10:50 |
| marcin_ant | ivoks: I know - with raid support or something... | 10:50 |
| ivoks | and i have exam in 3 hours | 10:50 |
| ivoks | even wors... in 2 hours :) | 10:50 |
| marcin_ant | ok it's not something very important - it's just my bug report about secondary NIC's on asus p5b deluxe | 10:51 |
| ivoks | i can't do anything about that since i don't have that hardware | 10:51 |
| marcin_ant | I verified this - your p5b has single LAN - mine has two controllers | 10:51 |
| ivoks | add lspci, lspci -n and lspci -vvv to bug report, if you didn't allready | 10:51 |
| marcin_ant | I did | 10:52 |
| marcin_ant | and info about what kind of chipset it is | 10:52 |
| marcin_ant | (taken from windows hardware manager) | 10:52 |
| marcin_ant | ok... you have exam and I should work ;) | 10:52 |
| ivoks | right | 10:53 |
| marcin_ant | so... | 10:53 |
| ivoks | brb | 10:53 |
| marcin_ant | right :) | 10:53 |

| BenC | ivoks: hey | 04:14 |
| ivoks | BenC: that 'path' i sent you seams to fix jmicron ide problem for me | 04:14 |
| ivoks | 'patch' | 04:14 |
| BenC | got it, and testing it | 04:14 |
| zul | BenC: so 2.6.17 xen boots but when i try launch some guests it complains it cant find /dev/sda1 | 04:14 |
| ivoks | BenC: and it looks like edgy kernel has regression for ICH8 (untested claim) | 04:14 |
| BenC | ivoks: regression from dapper? | 04:15 |
| ivoks | yes | 04:15 |
| ivoks | marcin_ant said he was able to install dapper on ich8 | 04:15 |
| BenC | wouldn't doubt it, I need to test ich8, and I've no hardware to test with | 04:15 |
| ivoks | but when he upgrade to edgy, think didn't work anymore | 04:15 |
| ivoks | i have hardware :) | 04:15 |
| ivoks | you are welcome to test it | 04:16 |

| ivoks | ide/sata controller? | 04:19 |
| ivoks | it will allways ops untill you disable IDE port or apply that patch :) | 04:19 |
| ivoks | sata will work with 9.23, but i'm unable to boot from disk connected to jmicron sata controller | 04:20 |
| ivoks | otoh, i'm able to boot from ich8 port, but then kernel doesn't see disk | 04:20 |
| ivoks | anyway... i'll be back in couple of minutes | 04:21 |

| ivoks_ | in bios, it says that making SATA controller ahci, IDE will be enabled | 05:21 |
| BenC | lspci is reporting that the io ports are disabled | 05:21 |
| ivoks_ | heh | 05:22 |
| ivoks_ | anyway, time to go home... i'll return here from home | 05:22 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Something needs to switch the hardware into mixed PATA/SATA mode. Right now, the ahci driver does that - I'm not sure anything else does. | 05:31 |
| BenC | ahci driver is loaded | 05:32 |
| BenC | mjg59: The pci quirks are supposed to switch it to dualfn mode | 05:33 |
| BenC | I need to make sure the quirk is being run...adding a printk now | 05:34 |
| BenC | ahci is loadin and detecting the SATA bus's (no sata drive on it yet) | 05:34 |
| BenC | it may be that this card needs a bit more quirk than the built-in chipset, just because of the lack of BIOS support | 05:37 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Ah, hm. Yes, sorry, you're right. | 05:38 |
| BenC | [ 26.480781] PCI: JMB36x: Enabling dual function on 0000:03:00.0 | 05:41 |
| BenC | it's getting enabled | 05:41 |
| BenC | wtf | 05:41 |
| BenC | 03:00.0 SATA controller: JMicron Technologies, Inc. JMicron 20360/20363 AHCI Controller (rev 03) | 05:42 |
| BenC | 03:00.1 IDE interface: JMicron Technologies, Inc. JMicron 20360/20363 AHCI Controller (rev 03) | 05:42 |
| mjg59 | Yeah, that's normal | 05:42 |
| BenC | just wondering why it's disabled | 05:42 |
| mjg59 | Usually it's a fairly well-specced bios flag | 05:42 |
| mjg59 | Do you have the specs for the hardware? | 05:43 |
| mjg59 | In any case, there's a check in generic.c that looks to see what one of the PCI config registers contains, and uses that to deicde whether it's enabled or not | 05:43 |
| BenC | no, I have no specs for the hw | 05:46 |

| BenC | I just noticed that these two eval boards are different | 05:49 |
| BenC | I have a 363 and a 366 | 05:50 |
| BenC | the achi works...just booted with my 300GB SATA drive connected to it (root drive) | 05:53 |
| BenC | IDE is disabled on the 366 aswell | 05:55 |
| mjg59 | BenC: It's quite possible that the chip comes up with pata disabled and needs to be programmed by the bios to enable it | 05:57 |
| BenC | the JMicron BIOS screen shows it detecting the CDROM | 05:58 |
| mjg59 | Hm. | 05:58 |
| BenC | I'll email them and find out | 05:58 |
| BenC | even if things are working for built-in chips, I need to get this external thing working too | 05:58 |
| mjg59 | You might want to check that it is the pci configuration bit | 05:58 |
| BenC | the quirk might need some extra setup | 05:58 |
| BenC | but it enables the dualfn before the PCI scan, so I would expect the PCI subsystem to take care of things | 05:59 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Presumably it's erroring out at the bit at line 220 of generic.c? | 06:01 |
| BenC | yeah, it is | 06:01 |
| BenC | but lspci also shows that the ioports are disabled | 06:02 |
| BenC | I wonder if I need to just get the jmicron.c | 06:02 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Well, in that case surely the bios is never setting it up? | 06:03 |
| BenC | it shows values for the ports, but shows them as disabled | 06:04 |
| BenC | Region 0: I/O ports at 7c00 [disabled] [size=8] | 06:04 |
| BenC | Region 1: I/O ports at 7800 [disabled] [size=4] | 06:04 |
| BenC | etc... | 06:04 |
| BenC | or is [disabled] just meaning that the OS isn't using them? | 06:04 |
| zul | is there a bios update for the board? | 06:06 |
| BenC | [ 460.205680] hdf: ATAPI 52X CD-ROM drive, 192kB Cache, UDMA(33) | 06:08 |
| BenC | answers that question | 06:08 |
| BenC | jmicron.c it is then | 06:08 |
| BenC | [ 459.413154] JMB361: 100% native mode on irq 66 | 06:09 |
| zul | Mithrandir: looks good to me, ill do a test build tonight and upload | 06:25 |

| BenC | 2.6.17-10.24 uploading in about 10 minutes | 08:16 |
| ivoks | BenC: changes? :) | 08:17 |
| BenC | mjg59: I still don't have the mactel stuff in, but will next time around | 08:17 |
| BenC | ivoks: Seems my eval boards needed the jmicron.c module | 08:17 |
| BenC | things are working for me now | 08:17 |
| ivoks | ok | 08:17 |
| BenC | ivoks: You have ich8? | 08:18 |
| ivoks | yes | 08:18 |
| ivoks | actually, my client has it | 08:18 |
| BenC | is it working with current kernel? | 08:19 |
| ivoks | no | 08:19 |
| ivoks | it worked with old edgy kernel | 08:19 |
| svu_tv | BenC, will tomorrow's ISO have 2.16.17-10.24 ? | 08:19 |
| ivoks | hardly | 08:19 |
| svu_tv | or any kernel working with g5? :) | 08:20 |
| ivoks | BenC: it think it worked with -7.19 | 08:20 |
| ivoks | since one guy told me that it works with dapper and it worked with edgy untill september 22. | 08:22 |
| BenC | svu_tv: installer needs to be rebuilt, so keep an eye on that, and you'll know when the CD's are updated | 08:22 |
| BenC | ivoks: So I guess I broke it with my backports | 08:22 |
| BenC | ivoks: Anyway to get access to a machine with that? | 08:22 |
| ivoks | i just backported everything to edgy | 08:23 |
| ivoks | errr... dapper | 08:23 |
| svu_tv | BenC, how could I keep an eye on the installer status? Is it available somewhere on the web? | 08:23 |
| ivoks | but i can give you access | 08:23 |
| ivoks | it still has -9-generic kernel + jmicron patch | 08:23 |
| BenC | that'll work | 08:23 |
| BenC | svu_tv: current installer has -9 udeb's, so either today's daily is working, or tomorrow's will | 08:25 |
| svu_tv | BenC, ok, I will try. thanks | 08:26 |
| ivoks | pidof: not found | 08:31 |
| ivoks | nice :) | 08:31 |
| BenC | ivoks: Is the 160G drive I see connected to the JMicron or ICH8 SATA controller? | 08:34 |
| ivoks | jmicron | 08:34 |
| ivoks | i doesn't work when it's connected to ich8 | 08:34 |
| BenC | would you be able to reboot it to the ICH8 controller? | 08:35 |
| ivoks | tomorrow | 08:35 |
| ivoks | :/ | 08:35 |
| BenC | the ICH8 is being detected and probed | 08:35 |
| BenC | ok | 08:35 |
| ivoks | that's true | 08:35 |
| ivoks | but it can't find disk | 08:35 |
| ivoks | i'll try finding another sata disk and conect it so we can test | 08:36 |
| BenC | excellent, thanks | 08:36 |

| `ph8 | hi guys! | 11:25 |
| `ph8 | I saw a *very* promising looking conversation earlier that looked like BenC had figured out the jmicron bug | 11:26 |
| `ph8 | care to confirm/deny? :p | 11:26 |
| `ph8 | I've only got two days till i go to uni anyway so i won't be able to install in that time - would be nice to know it's making its way into a build though | 11:26 |
| BenC | ph8: -10.24 is working for me | 11:57 |
| BenC | it's uploaded | 11:57 |
| `ph8 | fantastic1 | 11:59 |
| `ph8 | and it'll take a few days to get into d-i for install? | 11:59 |
| BenC | yeah | 12:00 |
| `ph8 | mega | 12:00 |
| `ph8 | cheers | 12:00 |
| `ph8 | do you know if we need any compat bios settings? like ahci over ide? | 12:00 |
| `ph8 | s/over/instead of | 12:00 |
| BenC | nope, the pci quirks and jmicron ide driver should handle all that | 12:03 |
| `ph8 | fantastico | 12:04 |
| `ph8 | where do we send the gift basket? ;) | 12:04 |
| `ph8 | thanks though, i know you worked hard on it for us :o) | 12:04 |
| `ph8 | Should be ok for me to post on the bug report that it's fixed? | 12:05 |
| `ph8 | if you havne't already, my datacentre's been hit by lightning and i don't have email access at the moment | 12:05 |
| `ph8 | apparently they don't have a lightning rod? just a guess... :p | 12:05 |
