| Darxus | Womble2: I'm not finding references to debsign in this package. | 03:52 |

| dhon_ | hi | 04:35 |
| dhon_ | I'm trying to build a more recent ftdi_sio driver on 8.04 but I'm having troubles | 04:36 |
| dhon_ | cc1: error: /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/build/include/linux/modversions.h: No such file or directory | 04:36 |
| dhon_ | that's the first of many errors | 04:37 |
| dhon_ | linux headers are installed | 04:37 |
| dhon_ | and the build alias seems to be ok: /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/build -> /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic | 04:38 |
| dhon_ | is it likely that this version of the driver requires a more modern kernel? | 04:39 |
| Darxus | What do the driver docs say? | 04:39 |
| dhon_ | the package I downloaded only contains ftdi_sio.c, ftdi_sio.h, Makefile and Rules.mak | 04:45 |
| dhon_ | I can't see a reference to min kernel version in those file | 04:45 |
| dhon_ | I should mention that this is a g-OS netbook, which is based on 8.04 - but I'm not sure if it's exactly the same | 04:47 |
| Darxus | It's entirely possible that the kernel and driver are incompatible versions. I wouldn't assume which one is too new / old. | 04:49 |
| dhon_ | a page I've found suggest that the kernel headers are not configured | 04:55 |
| dhon_ | is there a way to acquire the config for the current kernel? I thought it would be in /proc/config but it's not there | 05:02 |
| dhon_ | nor is it in the linux-source package | 05:03 |
| hyperair | /boot/config-`uname -r` | 05:03 |
| dhon_ | ah, perhaps apt-get source linux-image-generic? | 05:04 |
| dhon_ | ah ok thanks | 05:04 |
| hyperair | all the make-kpkg'd kernels put their configs there as wel | 05:05 |
| hyperair | +l | 05:05 |
| dhon_ | so I just copy this to /usr/src/`uname -r`/.config | 05:06 |
| dhon_ | err sorry, to the headers directory? | 05:06 |
| Darxus | dhon_: The .config in the linux-image package source is built from... several pieces. | 05:07 |
| Darxus | There's a main pice, then a piece for each architecture, then a piece for each flavor, and you cat them together. | 05:07 |
| Darxus | But getting it out of /boot/ is better :) | 05:07 |
| dhon_ | :) thanks | 05:08 |
| dhon_ | good to know | 05:08 |
| dhon_ | ok, so I have the config file, but I'm still not sure how to create modversions.h from the kernel headers? | 05:15 |
| dhon_ | it sounds like this might be a driver for 2.4, not 2.6 | 05:19 |
| dhon_ | modversions.h no longer exists in 2.6? | 05:20 |
| Womble2 | 2.6 has Modules.symver | 05:20 |
| Womble2 | or even Module.symvers... | 05:21 |
| dhon_ | the ftdi page states that ftdi_sio is in the mainline kernel now, so is it likely that a driver from 2.6.31 (say) would compile on 2.6.24 or is this a bad idea? | 05:21 |
| Womble2 | depends on how much its driver class (net, serial, ...) has changed | 05:22 |
| dhon_ | I'm not even sure if the driver is the problem - I'm getting IOErrors from pyserial when reading from a USB/RS485 adapter | 05:25 |
| dhon_ | it seems to only happen under heavy load, but then occurs on every successive read | 05:26 |
| dhon_ | so I was thinking it may be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/linux/+bug/376128 | 05:27 |

| dhon_ | as a follow up: the latest ftdi_sio is not compatible with 2.6.24 | 07:24 |
| dhon_ | the usb_serial structs have changed | 07:24 |
| dhon_ | and there were a few other problems | 07:24 |

| apw | smb, your tester has woken up on that one | 13:15 |
| smb | by now most drivers have input drivers, so maybe it is what is left of hald ... | 13:16 |
| * smb goes having a look | 13:16 | |
| smb | apw, I would suspect acpid in that case | 13:17 |
| apw | yep asked him to test without acpid, so we can see if its to blame there | 13:17 |
| smb | He reported some things visible when doing acpi_listen | 13:17 |
| apw | yeah thats what i thought | 13:18 |
| smb | Could we have a remnants of that handling left? and b) why did the module not load | 13:18 |
| smb | I check the acpi ids and there seemed to be one match | 13:18 |
| * smb wonders what that last update did to his netbook. ssd busy, back to the login screen, no mouse... | 13:20 | |
| apw | smb, one assume it didn't load cause its not listed in the module aliases | 13:31 |
| apw | if it did match then we need to get the dmesg to see | 13:31 |
| smb | apw, Its sort of a special acpi alias (the dmesg shows nothing (the normal one)) | 13:32 |
| smb | I double verify to see the id in the acpidump | 13:32 |
| smb | and then need to look how that match might b made | 13:33 |
| smb | apw, So from the dsdt: "Device (HKEY) { Name (_HID, EisaId ("MAT0019"))..." and from modinfo panasonic_laptop: "alias: acpi*:MAT0019:*" | 13:41 |
| apw | that is odd indeed | 13:42 |
| apw | smb, udev log might tell us yes? | 13:42 |
| smb | The basic question would be, does having that Id in acpi generate an event? | 13:43 |
| smb | apw, Looking into /sys/bus/acpi should tell I guess | 13:45 |

| === bjf-afk is now known as bjf | ||
| slytherin | yes, I can play it find on my ibook, powerpc with jaunty. In fact I can play all the DVDs I have on ibook. | 15:10 |
| cking_ | slytherin, it's a E616 DVD drive? | 15:14 |
| slytherin | I don't know the details. Only that it is a Asus DVD drive. I borrowed it from a friend with the intention of buying if it worked all right. | 15:14 |
| cking_ | I had a look at the boot message, it's looks like an ASUS E616. I've seen similar comments about this drive: http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?board_id=2&model=DVD-E616&id=20051224212843290&page=1&SLanguage=en-us | 15:15 |
| cking_ | ..which may indicate it works on older DVDs but maybe not on newer ones. | 15:15 |
| slytherin | let me ask my friend if he faced similar problem | 15:16 |
| apw | that would be very odd indeed. be interesting to see if windows can use it too | 15:17 |
| cking_ | just a hunch | 15:17 |
| apw | yeah i can see why you think that, i would be not buying one of those drives from the whining about them on google | 15:20 |
| apw | and the errors do look like the drive is getting all upset and stopping responding at the bus level | 15:21 |
| slytherin | I guess I will return it to my friend. :-) I should have logged the bug earlier. | 15:23 |

| slytherin | Kano: My DVDs are not like that. They play fine on my laptop. | 15:31 |
| Kano | then the drive could be faulty | 15:32 |
| slytherin | Kano: It woks for everything other than region coded drives. | 15:39 |
| Kano | then it is clear | 15:39 |
| Kano | you need to set the region code first | 15:39 |

| lamont | 2.6.31-13.42 ... does anyone really want that for ia64, or can I kill that build and let other stuff make progress, since I assume there'll be an even newer kernel sometime, yes? | 15:47 |
| slytherin | apw: Can that DVD issue be anyway related to DMA? I see lot of 'link is slow to respond', not sure what that means. And not sure why it comes with only region coded disks. | 15:55 |
| apw | slytherin, the first thing that occurs is that the drive is reported frozen it seems | 15:55 |
| apw | then we get annoyed and reset it and then it occurs agian ... | 15:55 |
| apw | so i'd say it looks like the drive is going away when we do the 'what you got in there then' call | 15:56 |
| slytherin | hmm, so might be related to drive status reporting, right? | 15:56 |
| apw | i assume when you say the drive is region 5 that the disks are the same region | 15:56 |
| apw | slytherin, very hard to say ... all i can see if it dissappearing off the bus | 15:56 |
| apw | thats not a very nice thing for it to do | 15:56 |
| slytherin | apw: yes. some of the disks are same region, but the problem appears irrespective of the region. Anyway I will try latest kernel and jaunty kernel. | 15:57 |
