\shBenC, feisty kernel 2.6.20-5 is not giving me any sound anymore...10:04
\shrebooting into edgy kernel10:05
gnomefreak\sh_away: are you sure alsa isnt muted? a few people have complained about one of the updates muting sound10:06
BenC\sh_away: If you have a hda conexant codec, it's possible that you need to run alsamixer to fix things up a bit10:09
gnomefreakthe person that i first heard this from it mutes on reboot10:11

ograBenC, ping11:20
BenCogra: Yo11:20
ogracan we get via eden support enabled in the -386 kernel ?11:20
ograhttp://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/sm/WF05a/35123-342039-342039-342039-637507-12235620.html11:21
ograi have some users with these11:21
ograthey dont boot at all11:21
BenCogra: What's required to enable it?11:21
ogradunno ... i havent looked at the config yet ....11:21
ograi'll find it out11:21
BenC-386 is a basic 486 minimum kernel11:21
BenCa cpuinfo from the machine would help11:22
BenCor from any via eden for that matter11:22
ograok, i'll try to get one ... but thats a bit tricky without booting indeed :)11:22
BenCI know the -386 works on my via proc11:22
BenCEPIA M10k11:22
ograthe guy having the prob tried his laptop which apparently works, so it must be a kernel option i guess 11:23
ogras/works/boots/11:23
BenCIt comes with 2.4 linux kernel, so you should be able to get /proc/cpuinfo from the base system11:24
ograah, k11:24
ograi dont have a -386 config handy, but i think its CONFIG_MVIAC3_2 you need enabled11:24
=== SiCk [i=wakeupha@cpc2-blfs2-0-0-cust190.belf.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
ograBenC, SiCk is the guy having the problem 11:25
ograSiCk, can you boot into the flashcard on the HP ?11:25
ograand get us the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo ? 11:25
SiCkyeah i can ogra11:26
SiCksorry, how do i do that?11:26
SiCki can boot in and get to the console11:26
ograboot the client without net connection i guess11:26
ogragreat11:26
ograjust type "cat /proc/cpuinfo"11:27
SiCkah okay.. one minute, booting thsi up11:27
ogra(without quotes)11:27
BenCrelevant lines are the "vendor_id", "model name" and "flags"11:27
BenCcpu family and stepping would be helpful too11:27
SiCkwill do11:28
BenCCan you descibe the failure during ubuntu boot?11:28
ograBenC, it just stops after "Uncompressing Linux..."11:28
BenCis quiet and splash disabled?11:28
ogradoesnt get to load the initramfs11:29
ograyep11:29
SiCk\sh: cat/proc/cpuinfo:11:29
SiCknot found11:29
SiCksigh11:29
ograyou miss a space11:29
BenCspace11:29
ogracat /11:29
ogra...11:29
SiCkduur Sick11:29
BenCis this a netboot?11:29
SiCknope11:30
SiCkthis is booting off the flashdrive11:30
BenCno, the ubuntu boot, is it from network?11:30
ograyes11:30
SiCkah, yes, pxe11:30
ograits an ltsp boot11:30
ograPXE11:30
BenCare you sure it's the -386 kernel and not say -generic or -server?11:30
SiCkvendor_id: CentaurHauls11:30
SiCkcpu family: 611:30
SiCkmodel name VIA Samuel 211:31
ograSiCk, can you do a "ls /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/" on the server afterwards ?11:31
ograso we can see you didnt end up with a wrong kernel package 11:31
SiCkflags: fpu de tsc msr cx8 mtrr pge mmx 3dnow11:31
SiCkyep.. ill do that now11:31
=== rpereirab [n=rpereira@ubuntu/member/rpereira] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
ograjust check if there are many files with -386 as suffix ... or if you have -generic instead11:32
ogra(should be -386 ... and i would have no explanation why it could be -generic)11:32
BenCthere should be no reason for it to not boot the -386 kernel...11:32
ograhmm11:32
SiCkyeah, most are -38611:33
ograSiCk, any -generic in that list ? 11:33
SiCknope11:33
ograplease do the same ls for /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/11:34
ograand check for -generic as well there11:34
SiCkapparently ther eis no such directory11:35
ograwithout the i386 then ...11:35
SiCkremember this is edubuntu, it likes to move things around11:35
ograare you running edgy or dapper ? 11:35
SiCkah, that's 386 too11:35
ograi object that ... i would know if it would "move things around" :) 11:36
SiCkdapper11:36
BenCgotta reboot11:36
ogra(i maintain it)11:36
SiCkahh haha, explains alot11:36
ograyeah, the missing ../i386/ indicates dapper11:36
SiCk*in awe*11:36
ograbut even the dapper -386 kernel should work afaik ...11:36
ograSiCk, yure a lucky guy ... we all sit here in a room at the ubuntu developer sprint :)11:37
=== Keybuk [n=scott@scandic759.host.songnetworks.se] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
SiCkwell i'm officially starstruck11:38
SiCkhaha11:38
ograSiCk, how critical would it be to set this server up with edgy ? 11:38
ograis it in production already ? 11:39
SiCknot at all, we're sitting with another system, it basically works by sending video over cat-5e to plasma screens11:39
SiCkwe have loads of thin clients doing nothing11:39
ograwait a sec11:39
ograi'm just told we'll get a new kernel package to test ...11:40
SiCkso instead of sending it from everywhere we'd like to have them displaying it from the plasma itself, the pc behind the screen11:40
ograso lets wait until thats done and i'll walk you through installing it11:40
SiCksounds good i think.. haha11:40
ogra:)11:40
ograoki...11:40
=== ogra goes for a smoke then ...
SiCkenjoy :)11:40
\shwell,,,kernel works again....strange that alsa was setting my headphone jack automagically...but I don't have headphone jack sensing ;)11:47

ograSiCk, then: sudo chroot /opt/ltsp/i386 dpkg -i /tmp/linux-image-2.6.15-27-386_2.6.15-27.50_i386.deb02:01
SiCkis this a full install? or just the kernel for the pxe?02:02
=== Keybuk [n=scott@scandic759.host.songnetworks.se] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
ograif thats done, hit ctrl-d to get to the normal system again and run: sudo ltsp-update-kernels 02:02
ograthen boot the client02:02
ograthats only a new kernel image02:02
SiCkah okay02:02
ografollowin the three steps above should work 02:03
SiCki shall try it02:03
SiCkgotta run here for an hour guys02:11
SiCkback soon and ill let you know how it goes02:11
=== sdrik [n=sdrik@ip-93-4.dsl.newel.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel

ograignore03:02
SiCksaid that twice and then i get03:03
SiCkperl: warning: falling back to the standard locale ("C").03:03
ograright, ignore that 03:03
SiCkill go on to the next one then03:04
ograyou can as well prefix the sudo dpkg -i with LANG=C03:04
ograthat will suppress the warnings03:04

SiCkogra you are the greatest. you're loved by 3 people in this room.03:10
SiCkand benc03:10
SiCk1 weeee question, i dont mean to push... how do i get this running as kiosk?03:11
SiCkand is there software to manage eaach client from the server?03:11
ograSiCk, kylem did all the work, i only pointed you to the right person :)03:11
SiCkkylem then, thankyouu!03:11
kylemno problemo.03:12
ograSiCk, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowtoWriteLTSP5Plugins has a kiosk mode plugin ... look at what it does and do the same to your chroot03:12
SiCki just follow this whole guide then yep?03:14
=== jwendell [n=wendell@ubuntu/member/wendell] has left #ubuntu-kernel ["Bye"]
ograSiCk, that would mean you need to rebuild your client chroot with ltsp-build-client ... following the steps in the code would work without it ...03:19
ograessentially its: install gdm and firefox, add /home and /var/lib/gdm to copy_dirs and rw_dirs in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/defaults/ltsp-client-setup and set gdm in /opt/ltsp/i386 to autologin for a user you create in there 03:21
ograbut anyway, this belongs to #ltsp or #edubuntu, lets not spam the kernel channel :)03:22
SiCkah good point.. see you there :D haha03:22

mjg59kylem: Inserting an SD card into the TI readers doesn't generate a hotplug event03:51
kylempourque?03:53
mjg59kylem: line 173 of drivers/misc/tifm_7xx1.c03:53
kylemif we get a card insertion request it shouldn't be too hard03:53
mjg59kylem: That needs to generate a hotplug event that requests tifm_sd.ko somehow03:54
mjg59Which presumably requires some sort of modalias magic03:54
mjg59Well, requests tifm_sd.ko in the case of it being an sd card03:54
=== kylem nods.
mjg59Oh, wait03:54
mjg59There's a device_register call there03:55
mjg59So maybe there is a hotplug event generated03:55
kylemhehe03:55
mjg59In which case, the bus_id is tifm_sd*03:55
kylemok. i'll beat up whoever our udev person is.03:55
mjg59So there just needs to be something to tie that to tifm_sd.ko03:56
mjg59Oh, rock03:56
mjg59He's just checked in support for memory stick03:56
mjg59...and I've left my machine with the appropriate hardware in .au03:57
