| Athunye_ | Well. With noapic and irqpoll boot parameters the wireless finally got connected. | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| === Athunye_ is now known as Athunye | ||
| jjohansen | Athunye: good to hear | 00:09 |
| Athunye | :) | 00:10 |
| Athunye | Thank you guyed for the time you lent me. :) | 00:11 |
| Athunye | guys* | 00:12 |
| jjohansen | hehe, np. I am just glad to hear you got it working | 00:13 |
| Athunye | jjohansen: And without irqpoll, the connection gest very slow. | 00:44 |
| Athunye | I'm going to take a bath. | 00:45 |
| Athunye | While I update ubuntu. | 00:45 |
| Athunye | :) | 00:45 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: you have something that isn't responding to its interrupts correctly | 00:56 |
| Athunye | jjohansen: What could be done? | 00:59 |
| Athunye | I'll try to update the bios. | 01:06 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: that really depends on what is causing the problem | 01:20 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: updating the bios is worth trying | 01:20 |
| jjohansen | so is turning off unused devices in the bios | 01:21 |
| Athunye | Yes. I can see two messages saying something I don't remember. I'll try to see them again. | 01:21 |
| jjohansen | it is also worth comparing /proc/interrupts with noapic irqpoll and without them | 01:21 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: on some machines even physically switching pci cards around can cleanup some of these issues | 01:23 |
| Athunye | Anyway, it is a cheap notebook | 01:23 |
| Athunye | Acer aspire 5516... | 01:23 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: ah, well I guess that option isn't open :) | 01:23 |
| Athunye | :) | 01:24 |
| Athunye | jjohansen: I just don't understand why lspci does not show the Etherned card anymore... | 01:24 |
| Athunye | And that happened before. And it started to show, and then didn't anymore. | 01:25 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: that is strange, even with noapic irqpoll | 01:25 |
| Athunye | :P | 01:25 |
| Athunye | I hate companies that don't give a good linux support. | 01:27 |
| jjohansen | sadly that is almost all of them | 01:27 |
| Athunye | Yes. | 01:28 |
| Athunye | I think Intel and Nvidia do. | 01:28 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: have you grabbed the broadcom firmware? | 01:31 |
| Athunye | For the wireless? No. | 01:31 |
| Athunye | Why? | 01:32 |
| Athunye | Sorry my lack of knowledge. | 01:32 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: its your ether net that is not showing up and your wireless that is working (with noapic irqpoll) right? | 01:34 |
| Athunye | Yes. That is correct. | 01:35 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: the broadcom firmware for 43xx can be found http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/b43-fwcutter | 01:38 |
| jjohansen | well the fetcher | 01:39 |
| Athunye | What does a firmware? | 01:39 |
| jjohansen | it is code that is run on the card, think of it like the devices bios | 01:40 |
| Athunye | Thanks. | 01:40 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1047297&highlight=4318 | 01:41 |
| jjohansen | Athunye: follow the instructions on that page it is easier to follow than me typing | 01:41 |
| Athunye | jjohansen: OK. Thanks. I'll keep you up to date with what is going on :P | 01:42 |
| doko | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=537389 | 18:38 |
| ubot3 | Debian bug 537389 in binutils "binutils 2.19.51.20090714-1 produces non-bootable kernel" [Grave,Open] | 18:38 |
| doko | are some ubuntu kernel variants built with HIBERNATION unset? | 18:38 |
| rtg_ | apw, ack | 18:42 |
| apw | doko, all of the karmic ones have the same hibernation config options set | 18:43 |
| doko | ok, thanks. so the workaround can wait until after alpha-3 | 18:44 |
| rtg_ | doko, you're talking about CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y, right? | 18:44 |
| doko | yes | 18:44 |
| apw | thats on in all karmic builds | 18:44 |
| rtg_ | apw, if I understand correctly, changing the concatenation order allows one to more more easily integrate an already fully formed config. | 18:51 |
| apw | exactly so | 18:51 |
| rtg_ | cool, good idea. | 18:51 |
| apw | means you can literally put a complete config in the .<flavour> file and hit fdr updateconfigs | 18:51 |
| apw | and the right thing will happen | 18:51 |
| apw | as it was before the world went to poo | 18:52 |
| apw | and you ended up with an utter mess for your trouble | 18:52 |
| rtg_ | right, doing new flavours in Hardy, intrepid, and Jaunty was a pain | 18:52 |
| apw | and it got harder in karmic with the new merging system | 18:53 |
| apw | all for an ordering change :/ | 18:53 |
| rtg_ | apw, return from suspend on my Inspiron is about 1.5 seconds | 18:53 |
| apw | very nice ... mine is normally around there, though now when i get in wireless is still faffing about getting connecterd | 18:54 |
| billybigrigger | can someone help me out here | 22:59 |
| billybigrigger | ever since the .31 kernel, my webcam hasn't been working at all...and i know that gspca is built into the kernel now, so do i have to wait for this to be fixed in the kernel? or can i fix it on my own? as i see there have been some updates to v4l-dvb and my webcam module | 23:00 |
| billybigrigger | http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-next.git;a=summary | 23:01 |
| billybigrigger | i see nothing from this tree merging into linus's 2.6.31 tree | 23:01 |
| billybigrigger | anyone? | 23:38 |
