baron1984 | I have a question about the kernel, if anyone can enlighten me for a moment | 00:56 |
---|---|---|
baron1984 | 2.6.24-17 and -18 failed to resume from suspend entirely requiring me to cut power to the power supply itself before the computer would even boot again | 00:57 |
baron1984 | 2.6.24-19 resumes but makes a chirping noise from the speakers then says it failed to resume | 00:57 |
baron1984 | is there any harm in using suspend in light of this? | 00:58 |
baron1984 | I looked in the system log and all it says is: Jun 18 19:48:52 ryan-desktop gnome-power-manager: (ryan) suspend failed | 00:59 |

crimsun_ | BenC: the previous intrepid upload of alsa-driver (1.1ubuntu1) already contains maks_'s addition, which you noted per Kano in the changelog for 1.1ubuntu2. What gives? | 04:31 |

Kano32 | hi BenC , i have got a problem with the lrm package | 08:39 |
Kano32 | i raised the abi with | 08:39 |
Kano32 | DEBFULLNAME="Hotfix" DEBEMAIL="no@mail.ad" dch -v 2.6.26-2.0 Kernel ABI bump. | 08:40 |
Kano32 | then usually | 08:40 |
Kano32 | debian/rules clean | 08:40 |
Kano32 | should update the abi | 08:40 |
Kano32 | but it does fetch 1 not 2 as abi, it seems the lowest line is used not the top line of the changelog? | 08:40 |
Kano32 | sed -e 's/PKGVER/2.6.26/g' -e 's/ABINUM/1/g' >> | 08:42 |
Kano32 | this is exchanged | 08:42 |
Kano32 | but when i put the new abi in the last line of the changelog this is evalutated, something is really wrong there.. | 08:42 |
Kano32 | the same worked with lum | 08:43 |
Kano32 | could somebody look at this please.. | 08:54 |
Kano32 | stupid package | 08:57 |
Kano32 | hmm now i know it... | 08:58 |
Kano32 | you renamed the package from linux-restricted-modules to linux-restricted-modules-2.6.26 | 08:58 |
Kano32 | then it can not work... | 08:59 |

saispo | hi all | 09:44 |
saispo | it's normal in ubuntu-feisty branch there are no debian/abi/2.6.20.17-36/ ? | 09:45 |
xivulon | at UDS I understood that that intrepid kernel will support suspend-to-disk also when swap is on file | 12:19 |
xivulon | can someone pls confirm that? | 12:19 |
mjg59 | The kernel already supports suspending when swap is a file | 12:20 |
mjg59 | But there's no support for resuming | 12:20 |
xivulon | mjg59: is that planned for intrepid? | 12:21 |
mjg59 | I'm afraid I don't know. | 12:26 |
cjwatson | BenC: bug 241295 is another udeb issue for you (or somebody) | 13:59 |
=== pgraner_ is now known as pgraner | ||
xivulon | cking, given your patch in ntfs-3g, do you think there is still any reason to use dm-loop (for intrepid)? | 14:30 |
xivulon | will that improve write performance? | 14:30 |
cking | xivulon: one I have a usable intrepid kernel on my 2 boxes here I can thoroughly benchmark it and compare it with the normal loopback | 14:31 |
cking | xivulon: dm-loop will give better performance if it has direct access to the block device - in the Wubi case it won't, so the difference is debatable | 14:32 |
xivulon | does it help with LVM(2) by any chance? that is in order to have resizable virtual disk | 14:33 |
cking | xivulon: I'm unsure of this. | 14:34 |
xivulon | thx | 14:35 |
cking | xivulon: can you drop me an Email concerning the LVM(2) resizable virtual disk requirements so that I won't forget it and so I can mull over that question | 14:36 |
xivulon | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiIntrepid | 14:36 |
cking | excellent! | 14:37 |
xivulon | on that subject, do you think we can do anything on fsck for ntfs-3g? | 14:37 |
xivulon | not necessarily a full blown fsck, but at least to address most common (or easier) issues | 14:38 |
xivulon | and turn off the dirty flag | 14:38 |
zul | gah....I didnt notice the ubuntu directory in ubuntu-intrepidi git tree | 14:38 |
rtg | zul: its the new LUM | 14:39 |
zul | rtg: gotcha | 14:39 |
zul | drbd needs to be updated since I uploaded a new version today | 14:40 |
cking | xivulon: it makes me feel uncomfortable fsck'ing a ntfs volume. It's a userland tool that I have no personal experience of (yet! :-) | 14:40 |
xivulon | cking, I know, but that is probably the biggest issue we have in wubi at the moment :( | 14:41 |
=== pgraner__ is now known as pgraner | ||
cking | xivulon: I suppose resourcing the ntfs fsck fix is the question to ask. | 14:43 |
zul | BenC: ping | 14:58 |
BenC | zul: yo | 15:00 |
tseliot | BenC, rtg: why is the -generic flavour of Intrepid's kernel Xen-enabled? | 15:00 |
zul | BenC: for the drbd8 any reason why you chose the 8.2.6 version? | 15:01 |
BenC | tseliot: so it can be used a guest in xen environments | 15:01 |
BenC | zul: I chose the latest version I saw available | 15:01 |
zul | BenC: ah because I just uploaded 8.0.12 version which was just merged from debian | 15:02 |
tseliot | BenC: fglrx doesn't work with Xen kernels and I'm having problems with nvidia too | 15:02 |
BenC | tseliot: tell fglrx to ignore that fact...I think if you do that, it works ok | 15:02 |
BenC | tseliot: have you contacted nvidia to see if they can fix their end? | 15:03 |
zul | I doubt they will :) | 15:03 |
tseliot | BenC: I have contacted them because their new driver (there are 4 flavours now) doesn't build with realtime kernels but I haven't received any reply | 15:04 |
tseliot | BenC: here's the error with the NVIDIA driver: http://pastebin.com/m3c096a17 | 15:06 |
tseliot | with the -generic flavour | 15:06 |
emgent | tseliot: heya | 15:08 |
tseliot | BenC: I'm a bit concerned about this, since tjaalton and I should replace the lrm with the new packages in Intrepid | 15:08 |
tseliot | emgent: hi | 15:08 |
tseliot | BenC: I'm building with IGNORE_XEN_PRESENCE=1 IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1 | 15:17 |
BenC | tseliot: yeah, new lrm for intrepid is uploaded, without nvidia and fglrx | 15:23 |
tseliot | BenC: I'll try contacting NVidia on their forums and saying explictly that I'm the new maintainer. Let's see if they care to reply. | 15:24 |
BenC | tseliot: that looks like something I can fix | 15:25 |
BenC | tseliot: can you give me your wip packages? | 15:25 |
tseliot | BenC: wip? | 15:25 |
tseliot | ah ok | 15:25 |
tseliot | work in progress | 15:25 |
tseliot | yes, sure | 15:26 |
BenC | cjwatson: does that af_packet bug imply that we should have another upload soon for alpha 1? | 15:26 |
tseliot | BenC: I'll upload them right now to my webspace. | 15:27 |
BenC | cjwatson: I can do one today | 15:27 |

zul | how do you just build the lum stuff in intrepid now? | 16:00 |
cjwatson | BenC: yes please - lack of DHCP is sort of fatal :) | 16:01 |
=== pgraner_ is now known as pgraner | ||
BenC | zul: there is no "lum stuff" in intrepid | 16:16 |
zul | so I have to do the fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic ? | 16:16 |
BenC | zul: there are ways of only building a portion of the kernel tree if that's what you are trying to do | 16:20 |
zul | BenC: yes please :) | 16:20 |
BenC | zul: mkdir ../build; cat debian/config/i386/config{,.generic} > ../build/.config; make O=`pwd`/../build prepare; make O=`pwd`/../build ubuntu/ | 16:29 |

BenC | you can even do things like ubuntu/aufs/ | 16:30 |
zul | BenC: thanks | 16:30 |
mst_ | Hey guys, I'm really stuck here: I cannot get Linux to see my IDE cdrom drive unless I boot with acpi=off -- I've tried just about every boot-time option with the stock Ubuntu kernel and just about every possible way of configuring things with a custom kernel to no avail... I need some help in figuring out what to do next to try and track down the problem | 16:30 |
BenC | mst_: the problem sounds like a BIOS issue | 16:31 |
BenC | mst_: I suggest seeing if there's a BIOS update before doing further | 16:31 |
BenC | mst_: the next step would be a bug report along with the usual info (dmesg with and without acpi=off, lspci -vvn) | 16:32 |
mst_ | BenC: I'm real frustrated because I can boot a LiveCD just fine -- I have the latest BIOS, its from Lenovo and it's real shitty... totally devoid of configuration options and info | 16:32 |
BenC | mst_: maybe just adding acpi=off /boot/grub/menu.lst (but I suspect without acpi you don't get suspend) | 16:32 |
BenC | mst_: Oh, wait, you can boot the livecd fine (without acpi=off) but not your install? | 16:33 |
mst_ | BenC: yeah, acpi=off is not really a solution for a laptop system :-( | 16:33 |
mst_ | BenC: yeah | 16:33 |
BenC | mst_: which release is this? | 16:33 |
mst_ | BenC: 8.04 | 16:33 |
BenC | is the installed kernel updated prior to having this problem? what if you boot the originally installed kernel (via grub menu)? | 16:34 |
mst_ | I started running 8.04 pre-release and this problem has persisted with every subsequent kernel update | 16:35 |
mst_ | I suspect it has something to do with the fact that it's an IDE cdrom and a SATA hard disk | 16:35 |
BenC | I can't see how a livecd boots fine, but the normal install doesn't work | 16:35 |
mst_ | the live cd boots, installs, and I can boot and everything works great, just no cdrom without "acpi=off" in the actual install | 16:36 |
BenC | mst_: does your BIOS have a way to set your hd controller to something like legacy/compatible/ahci? | 16:36 |
mst_ | and i've tried libata.noacpi=1 | 16:36 |
BenC | mst_: but the livecd wouldn't be able to boot if it didn't find your cdrom :) | 16:36 |
mst_ | That's why I suspect that libata is taking over control of the IDE ports (verifed by cat /proc/ioports) but wont recognize my drive | 16:37 |
BenC | libata is supposed to do that | 16:37 |
mst_ | I tried compatable and achi mode, each with combined_mode=ide and combined_mode=libata | 16:37 |
mst_ | Yeah, but even with libata.atapi_enabled=1 I get nada... and I've tried all of these options as parameters in /etc/initrd-tools/modules, and having made and used the new initrd | 16:38 |

BenC | atapi is enabled by default in libata | 16:39 |
BenC | so you can likely stop chasing that route, since libata is going to be the way your drive is detected | 16:40 |
BenC | mst_: I'd be interested in a dmesg from a livecd boot, and one from a normal install boot (without acpi=off) to compare | 16:40 |
mst_ | cool, so what I think I might need to do is tell the kenrel explicitly what ioport to use for the cdrom drive | 16:40 |
BenC | if it works in a livecd, it should work in the installed system | 16:41 |
mst_ | I'd be happy to colleced that data, should I go about doing that now? I can but them both up in my public http space on my schools server | 16:41 |
BenC | mst_: yes, please | 16:43 |
mst_ | Alright... I have some rebooting to :-), be back in a few minutes | 16:43 |
lukehasnoname | if you had it on a VM you wouldn't have to bring down your machine :) | 16:46 |
BenC | also probably couldn't reproduce the problem either :) | 16:47 |
mst_ | lukehasnoname, wouldn't the kernel just see virtual hardware? I have to be honest I don't know too mcuh about that | 16:47 |
mst_ | alright rebooting... | 16:47 |
BenC | cjwatson: new kernel+lrm uploaded, I'll get meta out when it's near finished (which should be quick) | 16:48 |
BenC | cjwatson: it is an ABI bump | 16:48 |
cjwatson | ok, thanks | 16:48 |
BenC | cjwatson: builds for intrepid appear to be amd64=1:20hours and i386=2hours | 16:56 |
BenC | just FYI | 16:56 |
mst_ | Alright... | 17:08 |
mst_ | BenC: you should be able to see 3 files at www.uvm.edu/~mtretin | 17:08 |
mst_ | BenC: I did dmesg for the installed system in AHCI mode and in Combatible mode | 17:08 |
mst_ | as well as AHCI mode for the liveCD | 17:09 |
mst_ | BenC: are you able to access them? I don't really ever use the public_html directory... | 17:19 |
BenC | mst_: weird, it's just plain not even probing the device...I was expecting a failure msg of some kind | 17:22 |
BenC | mst_: do you have 2.6.24-16-generic on the installed system? If so, can you give me ahci dmesg from that? | 17:22 |
BenC | that's what the livecd is booting, and I want to compare the same kernel on both sides | 17:22 |
mst_ | BenC: yep... just one reboot away | 17:23 |
mst_ | brb | 17:23 |
bdmurray | rtg: I seem to remember talking about bug 213011 in Prague but don't recall what you said. | 17:23 |
BenC | hmm...ide-pci-generic.all-generic-ide | 17:23 |
BenC | that shouldn't be there either | 17:23 |
rtg | bdmurray: looking... | 17:25 |
bdmurray | rtg: thanks | 17:26 |
rtg | bdmurray: these guys need to be running the -19 kernel. there was a cosmetic fix that I think will help them out. | 17:27 |
mst_ | BenC: it should be there nw | 17:27 |
bdmurray | rtg: alright, I'll ping them | 17:27 |
rtg | bdmurray: I'll add it to the report | 17:27 |
bdmurray | rtg: is that in -updates yet? | 17:27 |
rtg | yep | 17:27 |
mst_ | BenC: thank so *very* much for all the help BTW | 17:28 |
bdmurray | I'm so confused running -proposed all the time | 17:28 |
rtg | bdmurray: I hear you there. | 17:28 |
BenC | mst_: np...I tried to catch you before you left out, but can you also remove "ide-pci-generic.all-generic-ide" from the kernel cmdline...I don't think it is an issue, but just to keep a consistent test, redo the last dmesg without that | 17:30 |
BenC | mst_: and thank you for taking the time to track this down | 17:30 |
mst_ | BenC: no problem... just let me get vim up... | 17:31 |
mst_ | BenC: dmesg.2.6.16-generic.achi-mode.txt should now be w/o the bogus kernel parameter | 17:37 |
mst_ | or argument... to be technical lol | 17:37 |
tseliot | BenC: check your mail or the kernel mailing list. I have sent you the links to the source of my packages | 17:38 |
mst_ | BenC: and as far as me taking the time to track this stuff down... I couldn't be happier that I'm finally talking to someone who isn't telling me to do "modprobe ide-cd" :-) | 17:39 |
=== mkrufky is now known as mkrufky-away | ||
=== pgraner_ is now known as pgraner | ||
BenC | mst_: I'm at somewhat of a loss as to why this is happening | 18:07 |
BenC | mst_: can you try "sudo modprobe sr_mod"? | 18:07 |
mst_ | BenC: still no /dev/scd0 | 18:08 |
mst_ | BenC: woudl a dmesg with the option acpi=off (when the cdrom appears as scd0) help? | 18:09 |
mst_ | BenC: I would love to figure out exactly what the addresse for my cdrom is, then couldn't I try ide0=xxx at boot time? | 18:10 |
BenC | mst_: is there anything in dmesg when you modprobe sr_mod? | 18:13 |
BenC | mst_: also, try "sudo modprobe -r ata_piix; sleep 1; sudo modprobe ata_piix" | 18:13 |
mst_ | BenC: modprobe sr_mode doesn't put anything interesting in dmesg, except possibly "Driver 'sr' needs updating - please use bus_type methods" | 18:15 |
mst_ | BenC: removing and reinserting (using your command) give me some output, but I don't really know whether any of it is useful or not | 18:16 |
mst_ | output in dmesg that is | 18:16 |
mst_ | no cdrom in either case though | 18:18 |
mst_ | is there a way of forcing the kernel to probe more deeply, equiv. to hdX=cdrom? like scd0=cdrom? | 18:19 |
BenC | Not that I'm aware of | 18:32 |
BenC | it's probing, just not seeing anything | 18:33 |
BenC | What I'm concerned about is what's the difference between the livecd boot and the installed system...they should be identical | 18:33 |
BUGabundo | hi there | 18:34 |
BUGabundo | I'm having trouble with linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-19-generic | 18:35 |
BUGabundo | getting this /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-19-generic.postinst: 7: lrm-manager: not found | 18:35 |
mst_ | BenC: So what's the next step? And, I know there is a boot parameter to tell the scsi system to probe more deeply for devices on a scsi channel... you think that might help? | 18:39 |
mst_ | BenC: I'm going to try adding sr_mod to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and hope that it does something different... I figure as long I i'm trying something I'm moving in some direction. Thanks for all the help though! | 18:53 |
