[00:00] One of the crazier Phillies games in their 131 years of existence today. === ssweeny` is now known as ssweeny [09:37] Morning [11:14] morning [12:11] Morning peoples, dogs, turkeys, hamsters and everything else [12:45] Morning everyone ! [12:46] 1st day of school. Now can get some things done. [12:48] My RPi freezes for long periods then briefly unfreezes and repeats after I plug in 4G dongle. It wasn't doing that last week, no freezing of mouse/keyb even with dongle plugged in, then. [12:50] jedijf: or pleia2 any comments to above. Or any other Pi owners can chime in. [13:14] sudo tail -f /var/log/messages or syslog whatever the log is and plug in and watch, your answer will be revealed [13:14] InHisName: ^^^^ === scottrig- is now known as scottrigby [14:51] Hey. Today is Tuesday. [15:17] jedijf: one condition for that to work is keyboard and cpu have to be UNfrozen when I do that. [15:17] Have a terrific tuesday, ChinnoDog [15:36] InHisName: unplug pi - run command - plug in device [15:36] unplug pi - replug pi - run command - plug in device [16:03] Ok, got some log messages. During boot, it suggests doing fsck on microSD chip (root drive). [nothing about freezing, but probably needs doing] [16:05] After plugging in 4G modem, lotta log lines appear and appear and so on. Keeps cycling via incrementing device numbers to 31. mtp-probe has failure "not MTP device" repeated ly. Not sure what MTP stands for, yet. [16:07] jedijf: I guess the best way to run fsck is to move the microSD to another machine in a card reader and run it there . Is there a better option than this ? [17:23] tuesday++ [17:25] Work should start on Tuesday every week. [17:46] Be sick on Mondays, ChinnoDog, then you have it your way. [17:48] I don't think I can get a doctor's note for a case of the Mondays. [17:50] You could always volunteer to become one of the unemployed, then not only mondays but all the rest too ! [18:22] I have 4 partitions on SD card. For RPi. 3 are ext4 and one is vfat. The vfat dirty bit is set. How to fix ? [18:23] I did fsck on the ext4 partitions, they're ok. [18:24] man fsck.vfat pointed me to dosfsck ... It offered to remove dirty bit. BUT did not. used sudo wasn't helping. [18:28] I used this: sudo dosfsck -r /dev/sdc5 [18:29] if I run that a 2nd time and nothing happens then only the dirty bit was set. No other problems to fix ? [19:03] InHisName: Never experiences this myself [19:10] InHisNfame here at nother couputer [19:10] SD card boots ok now. [19:11] Looking at some of the log stuff. USB item noted below: [19:11] 13ba PCPlay 0001 Konig Electronic CMP-KEYPAD12 Numeric Keypad 0017 PS/2 Keyboard+Mouse Adapter 0018 Barcode PCP-BCG4209 [19:13] Vendor 13ba item 0018. It is really a USB -> PS/2 keyb & mouse adapter. It above notes from http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids it should be 0017 and not 0018 ? [19:14] Odd as it seems, the keyboard and mouse do work as long as I do NOT plug in modem dongle. [19:16] The last line for this item, says it failed to create a debugfs directory, is that a problem ?
