I've got a pretty serious issue with Feisty [12:28] I am accompanying elcasey on this one [12:28] yay! I have an escort to the danc...never mind [12:28] possible Feisty kernel regression, kernel appears to hardlock when probing his chipset [12:28] (storage chipset) [12:28] hence system doesn't boot [12:28] reproduced with Feisty LiveCD [12:29] initally I upgraded from Edgy, but LiveCD won't boot, either [12:29] the chipset reportedly worked fine in Edgy [12:29] elcasey: do you know what your storage chipset is? [12:29] no, lemme find out [12:31] it's Gigabyte brand [12:31] the spec sheet just says "GIGABYTE SATA II Controller" [12:31] so it's not Promise or anything [12:33] elcasey: can you get on a Edgy or something and lspci? [12:33] I don't have an Edgy liveCD [12:33] I have full access to all my partitions from Windows, though [12:35] elcasey: do you have any kind of Linux LiveCD? [12:35] (that can boot up) [12:36] cool, found my Edgy Live [12:36] i'll reboot and come back...I don't know if my NIC will work from a LiveCD, though, certainly not from Edgy [12:36] it's a serious process to get this Ralink working [12:37] wait, I have the hackin9 live distro! [12:38] elcasey: anything that can get you back here, with a mountable hard drive and a lspci command :D [12:38] anyway, lemme try the two livecds and see if any of them work [12:39] worst case, I'll install Solaris 10 and try that...I have a spare 10GB partition === elcasey [n=root@92.244.118.70.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [12:49] jdong: I managed to boot 2.6.17-10 in recovery mode [12:49] it hung at the bootsplash earlier today [12:49] but I have the lspci info [12:50] elcasey: I can't believe that worked [12:50] neither can I [12:50] Feisty's not supposed to boot with edgy kernels. [12:50] for all I know, Feisty will boot now [12:50] hehe hope for it [12:50] BUT, the hackin9 livecd didn't boot, it got the same error(s) when it tried to load the drives [12:50] wow [12:50] hmm [12:50] and it uses a 2.6.17-11 [12:50] that's real interesting [12:51] it's also Debian-based...and just like my install with -11, it dumped me to a BusyBox/ash prompt [12:51] I started to think it was everywhere, but *everything* works in Windows === elcasey shrugs [12:51] shall I try booting feisty? [12:52] meh give it a shit [12:52] shot* [12:52] ugh [12:52] heh, 10-4 [12:52] if it fails, I'll go back to XP and send/pastebin you my lspci.log? [12:53] I just piped the output to a file === elcasey [n=fuckoff@92.244.118.70.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [12:59] no dice with either version of 2.6.20-9 [01:00] what kind of error do you get booting up? [01:00] that would be useful [01:00] i.e. a recovery mode screencap [01:01] is there any way to force it to output all the startup stuff a logfile? [01:01] it doesn't give me errors, it just halts and all my HDDs spin down. [01:01] umm, the boot messages stop somewhere. [01:02] that's what I mean by error [01:02] It seems like it halts on discovering USB devices, but even if I unplug my USB HDD, it still halts [01:02] no you can't log stuff before the system boots [01:02] I mean that it's not giving me a *specific* error message or code [01:02] it just...stops [01:02] elcasey: yeah, screencap WHERE it stops. [01:03] how? Just PrtScr? [01:03] well whatever I cap with PrtScr will be gone when I reboot [01:03] digital camera [01:03] lol [01:03] ok [01:03] or patience and a keyboard :D [01:04] or Vista wreck ignition [01:04] I think I'll take some photos [01:05] I'll try to pause it and see if I catch anything else [01:05] brb === elcasey [n=ch@92.244.118.70.cfl.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [01:14] jdong: I booted full-on into 2.6.10, but it's got "issues" [01:15] heh what kind? [01:16] sda1 (Windows) doesn't mount and Beryl doesn't run at all (not concerned about that, currently) [01:16] it's just a bit "off" [01:16] presumably because the new kernel and some package replacements jacked some stuff around [01:16] but here's my lspci output - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10112/ [01:17] well old kernels aren't supposed to work in Edgy [01:17] err feisty [01:17] I am totally shocked that it boots at all [01:17] can you apt-get update and apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and apt-get dist-upgrade? [01:18] lemme check [01:18] it's hitting the repos, and they all say "feisty" [01:20] i'll definitely be doing a fresh install after my get my new HDD, but it'll be nice to have a working Linux system in the meantime (assuming tonight' kernel update makes some progress and/or old kernel keeps working) [01:20] dist-upgrade works, too [01:21] it's downloading quite a few packagaes [01:23] elcasey: yikes jmicron chipset [01:23] jdong: you still need those screenshots? [01:23] BenC can probably enlighten you more on the state of jmicron [01:23] elcasey: but do file a bug report and attach the screenie [01:24] which screenshot? It doesn't always hang in the same place [01:25] then attach two :) [01:25] ok...I think I took like five :P [01:29] jdong: what package should I report the bug in?

[01:40] abogani: Sure [01:40] I want to release all necessary packages to offer a complete solution for RT-Preempt in Ubuntu. [01:41] 1) If i release all source packages of the all binary packages i'm ok with license (in particulary with restrcited-modules), right? 2) I should change name to my packages: What is, in you opinion, better name? realtime-image (realtime-headers, realtime-source, realtime-restricted-modules etc) or linuxrt-image (linuxrt-headers, linuxrt-source, linuxrt-restricted-modules etc) ? [01:50] BenC: Do you have any suggestions? [01:50] abogani: 1) Yes, 2) Use a specific flavour like -realtime [01:51] your suggestion is probably too confusing for users, plus I doubt you really want to build linuxrt-image-{generic,386,server,server-bigiron,lowlatency} [01:52] So you'd have linux-image-2.6.20-10-realtime [01:52] probably best to base it on the -generic config [01:53] abogani: It would also mean you could do something intelligent like build-dep on linux-source-2.6.20 to build your kernels, just apply a patch for real time, and create the deb's (like what xen source does in universe) [01:53] makes it easier to rebuild against newer kernel source too [01:56] BenC I understand (i already use this flavours like naming), i cloned you git repositary and build my kernel with a AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs flavours="realtime" :-) [01:56] scarey....since when xen became the model ;) [01:57] BenC: My problem are (naming) source packages that not should conflict with official source packages. [01:57] abogani: If you do as I suggested, you wont have a full linux tree source package [01:58] but if you must do that (and I strongly suggest you don't :) then yeah, linux-rt-source-2.6.20 is a good name, but I wouldn't carry that name to the packages === gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-kernel [02:08] BenC: Ok. If i want to follow your suggestion (and thus not release a linux-rt-source-2.6.20) how i set source field in the my kernel package? I set this to linux-source-2.6.20 as like official kernel? People don't expect to find all source in source package (in this case you package don't have RT-preempt source obviously)? I don't break package policy? Sorry Ben i'm a stupid person. :-( [02:09] abogani: Download the xen source package and check it out. You still have a source package, but it does not include the entire linux source tree. It build-depends on linux-source-2.6.20, unpacks it during build, applies the rt patches, and builds a -realtime flavour from it [02:09] BenC: do you directly take the v4l-dvb repository from linuxtv.org for the ubuntu kernel? [02:09] mrec: No, we use stock, unless there some important fixes which we might git-cherrypick from that repo [02:10] In the past mkrufky has collected fixes for us into a repo we've pulled from [02:10] BenC: I will do it, thank you very much! [02:10] abogani: Np [02:11] abogani: If you feel like writing a wiki howto for people who want to do kernel flavours like this, I can link it from the KernelTeam pages [02:11] BenC: regarding my problems with some devs there, did you do anything? seems like the post of another developer calmed done the whole story at least [02:15] the other question I have is regarding the ubuntu installation CD is there any installation CD with a recent kernel out there? [02:15] it simply doesn't detect the SATA drive for that testmachine.

[07:11] crimsun: How soon do you think before I can at least get the compile fix? [07:11] just emailed to you [07:12] crimsun: Thanks [07:12] sorry for the thinko [07:14] np [07:14] crimsun: Do you have difficulty test compiling these patches? [07:15] BenC: not normally. I was up late. :/ [07:15] It's only like once in a blue moon you send me a thinko, so it's not a huge deal, but if you could just do a test SUBDIRS=sound compile it might help [07:15] sure, I'll use SUBDIRS=sound from now on, thanks [07:16] crimsun: usually I do "mkdir /tmp/build; cat debian/config/i386/config{,.generic} > /tmp/build/.config; make O=/tmp/build oldconfig; make O=/tmp/build prepare; make O=/tmp/build SUBDIRS=foo modules" [07:17] then you can just rm -rf /tmp/build when you're done and not add cruft to your src tree [07:17] noted.
