| sebner1 | hi, is there a known issuse with intel gm 915 and kernel intrepid? | 14:13 |
|---|---|---|
| BenC | sebner1: it's better to mention your probably then to ask if there is a problem | 14:33 |
| sebner1 | BenC: my sisters laptop has a intel gma 915 and with hardy and a intrepid kernel it's not booting everytime. sometimes it`'s "No Screens found". but just with the updated kernel. if I also update xorg the same remains | 14:34 |
| BenC | sebner1: /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg would be helpful | 14:38 |
| amitk | sebner1: by 'not booting', do you mean the X doesn't start? | 14:44 |
| BenC | amitk: that's the assumption I was going on :) | 14:45 |
| sebner1 | amitk: yes but I solved the issuse. it is a kernel issuse. disable usplash solves it. | 14:55 |
| johanbr | Booting Intrepid with splash usually (but not always) makes my Dell 1420 go haywire. The splash never appears and the speaker starts beeping like crazy. Is this known? | 14:57 |
| johanbr | Booting the hardy kernel behaves the same way, so it looks related to the intrepid usplash rather than the intrepid kernel. | 14:58 |
| BenC | amitk: that was terrible unhelpful...I would have liked to have actually fixed that | 15:01 |
| BenC | smb_tp: I'll ACK that amd SB700 hpet patch in kernel-team@ for hardy | 15:03 |
| BenC | smb_tp: and I'll pull it in for intrepid | 15:03 |
| smb_tp | BenC, It looks safe enough. At least only having effect on a specific hw. | 15:06 |
| smb_tp | BenC, I was not sure Hardy was targetted | 15:07 |
| johanbr | To answer my own question, yes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/253399/ | 15:10 |
| amitk | BenC: despair not... I can reproduce it on my laptop. Just upgraded kernel-only to Intrepid. With splash, I only get a blank screen. On disabling splash, everything works. | 15:25 |
| BenC | amitk: are you using any video= or vga= cmdline options? | 15:38 |
| BenC | amitk: does installing v86d fix things? | 15:38 |
| amitk | BenC: no video= or vga= | 15:41 |
| amitk | i guess v86d is an intrepid-only package.. | 15:41 |
| BenC | it is, and you'll need latest initramfs-tools to go with it | 15:48 |
| amitk | BenC: will have to wait a bit, I lost wireless (3945) on the upgrade. | 15:50 |
| BenC | amitk: update linux-restricted-modules-common to get the firmware | 15:53 |
| amitk | hmm... /lib/firmware/<kernel-version> wasn't created | 15:53 |
| amitk | BenC: ack, just discovered ^ | 15:54 |
| BenC | amitk: right, because it's all general in /lib/firmware/ now (not kernel version specific) | 15:55 |
| fransman | I have build a Ubuntu kernel for a Cobalt Raq server box. It has only ttyS0 as output, so no tty's/no video but that's ok for testing. The kernel is booting in a second stage fired-up by a embedded kernel. This all goes nice. But it look's like this new kernel is less verbose at startup. | 16:23 |
| fransman | it show only booting kernel... Ubuntu intrepid (development branch) deblnxsrv15 ttyS0 deblnxsrv15 login: | 16:23 |
| fransman | what do I've got to do to get it more verbose? | 16:23 |
| amitk | BenC: installing v86d solves the problem | 16:25 |
| BenC | amitk: interesting...I'd say that's a bug in uvesafb if it causes that problem without v86d installed | 16:26 |
| BenC | fransman: remove "quiet" from the kernel cmdline | 16:27 |
| fransman | BenC: It's a Linux server box that does not boot with Grub | 16:28 |
| fransman | So there is no quiet in the boot line | 16:28 |
| BenC | fransman: you have to be passing some sort of cmdline to the new kernel no matter how you boot (even with kexec), so check that cmdline | 16:28 |
| BenC | fransman: or try console=ttyS0 | 16:29 |
| fransman | It does already boot with command line: 'console=ttyS0,115200 debug ip=off ' | 16:29 |
| fransman | But it does not more then pasted | 16:30 |
| BenC | fransman: then I'm at a loss | 16:30 |
| fransman | but we will find out in the next day's for sure | 16:32 |
| fransman | thanks for your support BenC: | 16:32 |
| BenC | fransman: np, let me know how things go | 16:32 |
| fransman | I do | 16:33 |
| amitk | fransman: does the box have BIOS over serial? | 16:36 |
| fransman | yes | 16:36 |
| fransman | so it show boot state 0 and 1, but it's less verbose on the kernel in 2 | 16:37 |
| mpt | I have a reproducible kernel panic when running the Intrepid alpha 3 live CD inside VirtualBox. Where should I report it, and with what information? | 16:38 |
| amitk | fransman: Was something changed in the bios? | 16:40 |
| fransman | no please | 16:40 |
| fransman | we are hacking linux not bioses | 16:41 |
| amitk | fransman: I meant changing bios options :) | 16:42 |
| fransman | In this box you can not change bios options | 16:42 |
| fransman | there is even no bios screen | 16:43 |
| fransman | it all embedded | 16:43 |
| fransman | build on linux | 16:43 |
| fransman | (for the boot-process i mean) | 16:45 |

| abogani | Is it meeting time? | 17:13 |
| abogani | What is the last useful day for push a custom kernel flavour in Universe? | 17:13 |
| amitk | abogani: a new flavour not covered by the ports package? | 17:13 |
| BenC | Sorry, meeting is now | 17:14 |
| * BenC got caught up in 2.6.27 | 17:14 | |
| abogani | amitk: No the "old" -rt kernel flavour... | 17:14 |
| === soren changed the topic of #ubuntu-kernel to: Ubuntu kernel development discussion ONLY | Kernel Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam | Latest kernel upload: 2.6.26-5.14 (based on 2.6.26 final) | Latest news: Please test last-good-boot, now in intrepid (grub/module-init-tools) | Next meeting: Aug 5, 16:00 UTC | Kernel Team machine: http://kernel.ubuntu.com | ||
| BenC | I don't have much in the way of topics for this meeting...Intrepid is moving along, now is a good time for testing (kernel has settled) | 17:16 |
| amitk | abogani: ASAP, we are getting close to Alpha4 :) | 17:16 |
| BenC | abogani, amitk: Actually universe freeze is way later than the rest of the dist (somewhere around beta?)...as long as no one wants CD's with -rt on it :) | 17:17 |
| abogani | BenC: I'm the only man on the planet that would be happy to see a Ubuntu LiveCD with -rt kernel.... :) | 17:18 |
| BenC | abogani: what about ubuntu-studio? | 17:19 |
| BenC | Ok, so as far as agenda's go...let's just open the floor to some general questions/comments :) | 17:22 |
| abogani | BenC: Sorry I'm very busy with build system of the -rt kernel flavour and i'm not informed about Ubuntu Studio status except that Cory hope to have the kernel asap. | 17:22 |
| BenC | Anyone have any questions about intrepid kernel, features and such? | 17:22 |
| BenC | abogani: ok | 17:22 |
| BenC | Ok...guess we'll call this meeting...if anyone has anything they would like to discuss, please feel free to ask | 17:26 |
| abogani | BenC: What i'll do when i have a working rt kernel source package? Should i put it on REVU? Or pass it to an UKT member (that is canonical employer)? | 17:26 |
| BenC | abogani: REVU | 17:26 |

| amitk | BenC: from uvesafb documentation: | 22:18 |
| amitk | Note that the v86d userspace helper has to be available at all times in | 22:18 |
| amitk | +order for uvesafb to work properly. If you want to use uvesafb during | 22:18 |
| amitk | +early boot, you will have to include v86d into an initramfs image, and | 22:18 |
| amitk | +either compile it into the kernel or use it as an initrd. | 22:18 |
| BenC | amitk: I know that part | 22:32 |
| BenC | amitk: but uvesafb not working shouldn't mean it destroys the video | 22:32 |
| mjg59 | Is vga= being passed at the command line? | 22:33 |
| mjg59 | Because, if so, grub's probably programming a mode | 22:34 |
| amitk | mjg59: no vga= or video= is being passed. | 22:35 |
| amitk | ohh.. and it seems to mess up resume too. I see the pointer for a bit, then blank screen, just like on login with splash enabled | 22:38 |
| Ng | anyone about with a 4965 wireless chip? it takes ages to connect to wireless on resume, but normally it connects really quickly. If I poke it to try a new connection after resume it's pretty quick too | 22:54 |
| mjg59 | I think that's just n-m taking its time to rescan | 22:56 |
| Ng | hmm | 22:59 |
