| Toroman | hi! I have an usb wifi dongle (usr805422), when i try to boot up ubuntu with my usr805422, I receive host system error and I cant use my dongle until next reboot.... it only works when i boot up my ubuntu without usb dongle and wait to load desktop manager and ndiswrapper :( http://pastebin.com/me5a7918 here is more inf. please help me | 12:58 |
|---|---|---|
| defcon | belkin ralink rt73 wifi dongle causes a kernel panic when I plug it in | 12:59 |
| defcon | Toroman, same problem here, kernel panic my caps/scroll lock blink | 01:00 |
| defcon | everything worked fine in feisty | 01:00 |
| Toroman | with usr805422 no kernel panic problem but only my usb host dies :D | 01:01 |
| Toroman | i try my dongle with other distros such as pardus, no problem occured... | 01:04 |
| JanC | many ralink drivers heave issues with multiprocessing | 01:06 |
| JanC | so if you have a multi-core/multithreading CPU... | 01:07 |
| Toroman | I'v very very single and old core :D | 01:08 |
| JanC | so then there is another issue... ;) | 01:09 |
| Toroman | i try this dongle with 3 different computers but they all deliver same error | 01:12 |
| mjg59 | amitk_: http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/tmp/usb_autosuspend | 01:13 |
| Toroman | I have to unplug my dongle and boot my comp wait ndiswrapper loads then plug my dongle | 01:15 |

| defcon | ikm having an issue with gutsy and the 2.6.22-9 kernel, when I plug in my belkins usb wifi dongle I get an instant kernel panic | 03:25 |
| lamont` | defcon: neato. what exactly is the panic?> | 03:29 |
| defcon | how do I debug this and properly report it | 03:30 |

| \x6e\x65\x72\x64 | Hi, I'm trying to compile a dapper kernel on a feisty machine, because the feisty machine is faster, but I'm getting some errors, do I have to make any special changes for this to work? | 03:30 |
| defcon | it instantly freezes my box and blinks caps lock/scroll lock | 03:30 |
| defcon | lamont, I have tried -rt and it doesnt panic but I am unable to modprobe the module rt73.ko from serialmonkey, and cannot use the supplied drivers with ubuntu | 03:32 |
| defcon | 2.6.22-9-386 got the same issue | 03:32 |
| lamont` | defcon: and the actual panic message is???? | 03:35 |
| lamont` | ah - it freezes the machine, rather than panicing... got it | 03:35 |
| defcon | i didnt write it down, should there be a log of it | 03:35 |
| defcon | apon boot it does the same | 03:36 |
| lamont` | given that panic doesn't trust anything, it tends to only record the info on the console.... | 03:36 |
| defcon | wont boot when initializing interfaces | 03:36 |
| lamont` | that makes sense | 03:36 |
| defcon | capslock/scroll lock blink | 03:36 |
| defcon | what does that mean | 03:37 |
| lamont` | OTOH, without knowing what the panic message was, life sucks. If there's no panic message, then life gets more interesting for tracking things down | 03:37 |
| lamont` | defcon: dunno what the blinking stuff means | 03:37 |
| mjg59 | Blinking means that the kernel has oopsed | 03:38 |
| defcon | ok so I'll reinstall the kernel and try again supplying u with an error message, I only get it during recovery mode | 03:38 |
| lamont` | mjg59: cool. I'll remember that | 03:38 |
| defcon | am i in the right place for this to be resolved? | 03:39 |
| lamont` | defcon: I'm close to running out the door for home, and will be gone for at least an hour at that point. I'll read scrollback when I get there. | 03:39 |
| lamont` | defcon: either here, or (better yet), all the detail you can provide, into a bug filed in launchpad | 03:39 |
| defcon | lamont, ok | 03:39 |
| lamont` | that way it gets some tracking. | 03:39 |
| lamont` | and actually, this is the right channel to be discussing your fix for the bug, to make sure that it's implemented correctly, etc. rather than a support channel.... | 03:40 |
| lamont` | likewise, discussions on figuring out how to best debug the problem are on topic. | 03:40 |
| lamont` | "fix my bug please, kthxbye" would be off topic. :-) | 03:40 |
| lamont` | at least, that's how i read things... | 03:41 |
| defcon | cool | 03:41 |
| defcon | I appreciate it lamont | 03:41 |
| defcon | i'll work on this | 03:41 |

| BenC | kylem: data point, x86_64 kernel boots fine for me | 05:53 |
| kylem | BenC, it would, it uses completely different code. | 05:53 |
| === pmjdebruijn [n=pmjdebru@ds9.pcode.nl] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| BenC | another reason to merge i386/x86_64 :/ | 05:54 |
| mjg59 | Andi insists on maintaining different timer code because, erm, well. | 05:54 |
| kylem | BenC, well, x86_64 hasn't got the new time code yet, because it's still buggy. (clearly. :) | 05:55 |

| amitk_ | mjg59: Patch looks good. Can you send it with a sign-off? | 06:13 |
| mjg59 | amitk_: Didn't it have one? | 06:13 |
| mjg59 | amitk_: Oh - I tried to mail you, but amitk@u.c doesn't work | 06:14 |
| mjg59 | It's on lkml and usb-dev | 06:14 |
| kylem | mjg59, it's just amit@ | 06:14 |
| amitk_ | mjg59: thanks | 06:17 |
| BenC | rebooting to test the amd broken timer thing | 06:22 |

| BenC | sweet, it worked | 06:29 |
| kylem | yeah, i figured it would. the probelm seems to be with nohz, you can't turn off the lapic timer | 06:32 |
| BenC | I wonder if "nolapic nohz=on" would work | 06:33 |
| BenC | err nohz=off | 06:33 |
| BenC | kylem: do you think forcing "return 1" is a good work around for us to use? | 06:34 |
| BenC | in production I mean | 06:34 |
| BenC | kylem: does a broken lapic timer mean that kernel disabled nohz? | 06:35 |
| kylem | i say we add the proper define in now (test the cpuid) and reevaluate the decision after before -rc? | 06:35 |
| kylem | a lot of testing should happen for beta, so we can see if the issue reoccurs now that we know what to do... | 06:35 |
| BenC | kylem: you sounds like you're on top of this...can you get a patch in, and a new kernel today (or before Monday)? | 06:36 |
| kylem | BenC, er, well, need info from you or tim first. | 06:37 |
| BenC | let me know what you need and I can get it | 06:37 |
| kylem | (b) make that function print out the values it uses for debugging (ie the | 06:37 |
| kylem | xtended family and model numbers, and the MSR_K8_ENABLE_C1E MSR | 06:37 |
| BenC | I assume cpuid | 06:37 |
| kylem | values)? | 06:37 |
| kylem | right. | 06:37 |
| BenC | ok | 06:37 |

| Nafallo | BenC, mjg59: I think the damn upgrade fixed it. | 08:00 |
| Nafallo | BIOS | 08:00 |
| mjg59 | Nafallo: Hurrah. Does it work without noapic now? | 08:00 |
| Nafallo | mjg59: I think so. I'll check my commandline :-) | 08:00 |
| Nafallo | [ 64.748254] Kernel command line: root=/dev/md1 ro console=tty0 console=ttyS0,38400n8 break=premount | 08:01 |
| Nafallo | :-D | 08:01 |
| mjg59 | Excellent. | 08:01 |
| Nafallo | too easy :-P | 08:01 |
| Nafallo | why didn't I think about this before? :-) | 08:01 |
| rtg | BenC or mjg59: Am I smoking crack on this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/129477 ? What does a Synaptics touchpad do under windows that these guys expect? | 08:12 |
| mjg59 | rtg: It's a new-model ALPS pad. The kernel doesn't recognise it. | 08:13 |
| === ketrox [n=ketrox@Xdf8c.x.pppool.de] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| rtg | mjg59: So PS/2 emulation is the best we can expect w/Feisty, right? | 08:13 |
| mjg59 | With Feisty, yes | 08:13 |
| rtg | mjg59: Thanks. | 08:14 |
| mjg59 | rtg: In PS/2 emulation mode it only reports relative motion. In native mode it gives absolute coordinates which give the synaptics userspace driver the ability to implement additional functionality (like scrolling) | 08:15 |
| rtg | I guess I've never used a touchpad like taht. | 08:15 |
| mjg59 | Basically everything (other than very old stuff and bleeding-edge alps) works like that in Linux | 08:16 |
| Nafallo | http://home.nafallo.info/bugs/sata_nv.txt btw :-) | 08:19 |
| Nafallo | I can't see anything weird :-) | 08:19 |

| mjg59 | Yeah, looks fine | 08:21 |
| mjg59 | Note how stuff is all on different interrupts now | 08:21 |
| gnomefreak | we are tptally against putting 2.6.23 in multiverse right? | 08:26 |
| gnomefreak | totally even | 08:26 |
| mjg59 | Do you mean universe? | 08:26 |
| gnomefreak | yeah sorry | 08:27 |
| mjg59 | And I suspect the answer is yes | 08:27 |
| gnomefreak | someone asked this this morning im getting around to it now | 08:27 |
| zul | i am against it | 08:27 |
| gnomefreak | once gutsy stable we cant really touch it | 08:27 |
| infinity | We've had newer kernels in universe before, and it was a complete disaster. | 08:28 |
| infinity | So, yeah, we're pretty firmly against repeating that fiasco. | 08:29 |
| mjg59 | Oh, yes, I'd forgotten that | 08:30 |
| mjg59 | 2.6.11, wasn't it? | 08:30 |
| mjg59 | Back in Hoary | 08:30 |
| infinity | Yeah. | 08:30 |

| rtg | mjg59: I'm about to instrument a Feisty kernel to extract the Dell 1420 ALPS touchpad E7 report. Is there an easier way? Do you think simply adding alps_model_info will enable the scroll bars? | 09:24 |
| mjg59 | rtg: The issue came up on lkml - simply adding the device to the table didn't seem to work, so I suspect the protocol has changed slightly | 09:25 |
