[14:13] hi, is there a known issuse with intel gm 915 and kernel intrepid? [14:33] sebner1: it's better to mention your probably then to ask if there is a problem [14:34] 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 [14:38] sebner1: /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg would be helpful [14:44] sebner1: by 'not booting', do you mean the X doesn't start? [14:45] amitk: that's the assumption I was going on :) [14:55] amitk: yes but I solved the issuse. it is a kernel issuse. disable usplash solves it. [14:57] 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? [14:58] Booting the hardy kernel behaves the same way, so it looks related to the intrepid usplash rather than the intrepid kernel. [15:01] amitk: that was terrible unhelpful...I would have liked to have actually fixed that [15:03] smb_tp: I'll ACK that amd SB700 hpet patch in kernel-team@ for hardy [15:03] smb_tp: and I'll pull it in for intrepid [15:06] BenC, It looks safe enough. At least only having effect on a specific hw. [15:07] BenC, I was not sure Hardy was targetted [15:10] To answer my own question, yes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/253399/ [15:25] 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. [15:38] amitk: are you using any video= or vga= cmdline options? [15:38] amitk: does installing v86d fix things? [15:41] BenC: no video= or vga= [15:41] i guess v86d is an intrepid-only package.. [15:48] it is, and you'll need latest initramfs-tools to go with it [15:50] BenC: will have to wait a bit, I lost wireless (3945) on the upgrade. [15:53] amitk: update linux-restricted-modules-common to get the firmware [15:53] hmm... /lib/firmware/ wasn't created [15:54] BenC: ack, just discovered ^ [15:55] amitk: right, because it's all general in /lib/firmware/ now (not kernel version specific) [16:23] 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] it show only booting kernel... Ubuntu intrepid (development branch) deblnxsrv15 ttyS0 deblnxsrv15 login: [16:23] what do I've got to do to get it more verbose? [16:25] BenC: installing v86d solves the problem [16:26] amitk: interesting...I'd say that's a bug in uvesafb if it causes that problem without v86d installed [16:27] fransman: remove "quiet" from the kernel cmdline [16:28] BenC: It's a Linux server box that does not boot with Grub [16:28] So there is no quiet in the boot line [16:28] 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 [16:29] fransman: or try console=ttyS0 [16:29] It does already boot with command line: 'console=ttyS0,115200 debug ip=off ' [16:30] But it does not more then pasted [16:30] fransman: then I'm at a loss [16:32] but we will find out in the next day's for sure [16:32] thanks for your support BenC: [16:32] fransman: np, let me know how things go [16:33] I do [16:36] fransman: does the box have BIOS over serial? [16:36] yes [16:37] so it show boot state 0 and 1, but it's less verbose on the kernel in 2 [16:38] 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? [16:40] fransman: Was something changed in the bios? [16:40] no please [16:41] we are hacking linux not bioses [16:42] fransman: I meant changing bios options :) [16:42] In this box you can not change bios options [16:43] there is even no bios screen [16:43] it all embedded [16:43] build on linux [16:45] (for the boot-process i mean) === philwyett_ is now known as philwyett [17:13] Is it meeting time? [17:13] What is the last useful day for push a custom kernel flavour in Universe? [17:13] abogani: a new flavour not covered by the ports package? [17:14] Sorry, meeting is now [17:14] * BenC got caught up in 2.6.27 [17:14] amitk: No the "old" -rt kernel flavour... === 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 [17:16] 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] abogani: ASAP, we are getting close to Alpha4 :) [17:17] 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 :) [17:18] BenC: I'm the only man on the planet that would be happy to see a Ubuntu LiveCD with -rt kernel.... :) [17:19] abogani: what about ubuntu-studio? [17:22] Ok, so as far as agenda's go...let's just open the floor to some general questions/comments :) [17:22] 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] Anyone have any questions about intrepid kernel, features and such? [17:22] abogani: ok [17:26] Ok...guess we'll call this meeting...if anyone has anything they would like to discuss, please feel free to ask [17:26] 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] abogani: REVU [17:28] shudder === bdmurray_ is now known as bdmurray [17:58] soren: Is it possible create an intrepid vm with ubuntu-vm-builder on hardy? [22:02] Compiling Intrepid kernel on updated intrepid obtain: [22:04] make: Entering directory `/home/ubuntu/linux-rt-2.6.26-1.0/debian/build/build-rt' [22:04] CHK include/linux/version.h [22:04] CHK include/linux/utsrelease.hc [22:04] CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh [22:04] CHK include/linux/compile.h [22:04] CC arch/x86/mm/pageattr.o [22:05] arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c: In function 'try_preserve_large_page': [22:05] arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c:307: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault [22:05] Please submit a full bug report, [22:05] with preprocessed source if appropriate.

[22:05] doko, ^ [22:18] BenC: from uvesafb documentation: [22:18] Note that the v86d userspace helper has to be available at all times in [22:18] +order for uvesafb to work properly. If you want to use uvesafb during [22:18] +early boot, you will have to include v86d into an initramfs image, and [22:18] +either compile it into the kernel or use it as an initrd. [22:32] amitk: I know that part [22:32] amitk: but uvesafb not working shouldn't mean it destroys the video [22:33] Is vga= being passed at the command line? [22:34] Because, if so, grub's probably programming a mode [22:35] mjg59: no vga= or video= is being passed. [22:38] 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 [22:54] 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 [22:56] I think that's just n-m taking its time to rescan [22:59] hmm
