Re: [driver] New life for Serial mice
sorry I'm late, could you tell me where this driver/patch is? also, my problem with USB mice on slow machines is that it takes up too much CPU, and you get a jumpy mouse if your box is doing a lot of work (like a heavy nfs server, say). Would this driver do the same to that box?

MSI6321 + PDC20265 + reiserfs + IBM deskstar => kernel BUG
Running kernel 2.4.4 w/Jeff Garzik's via-apic patch, using
reiserfs on a IBM Deskstar on the PDC20265 of a MSI-6321, some
weird shtuff starts happening.
# mount /dev/hde /mnt
reiserfs: checking transaction log (device 21:00) ...
hde: timeout waiting for DMA
ide_dmaproc: chipset supported ide_dma_timeout func only: 14
hde: irq timeout: status=0x80 { Busy }
hde: DMA disabled
ide2: reset: success
reiserfs: replayed 12 transactions in 44 seconds
Using r5 hash to sort names
ReiserFS version 3.6.25
cool!
Now the fun starts: if I start creating a lot of files, I'll
never get to the 1000th, getting the BUG! that follows (the
farthest I've got is B/J/W, i.e. file # 933. Doing a dd instead
of just touching the file is worse). The drive never recovers; I
need to power down the box (a hard reset still leaves it making
these grunging noises).
I attach: the dewhatsitized oops, lspci -vvvxx, hdparm -i
/dev/hde, cat /proc/ide/pdc202xx (but before mounting hde), and
anything else I can think of before hitting y.
Holler if you need anything else.

Just to add a little noise: My box (msi 694d pro AI motherboard, revI, i.e. vt82c686a) been a *lot* stabler since I removed the Live! and dropped back to the onboard soundcard. The only time it has frozen has been when checking to see if this also fixed the X-freezes-on-reentry thing (which I know was silly, since CVS X has had that fixed for some time and the fix is on the slow path to 4.1). I used to get a freeze (that is a lock-up where I have to reset the box, unable to even alt-sysrq my way out) between one and five times per day, nearly always in X, nearly always with sound, nearly always using up a lot of (memtested) memory. 'nearly always' means 'at least once not' -- scientific as hell. If I could put in words the difference between the Live! and the via, I would.

kernel panic in 2.4.2
When I arrived at my machine tonight it was dead, with a nice
panic on the screen as a greeting. On rebooting I found something
in the logs, which is rare because it said "not syncing". So I'm
assuming this isn't the panic that killed the box, but she
probably knows (of) him, so let's interrogate her anyway:

problem with modules in 2.2.14
Hello all. We've written a module for kernel 2.2.14 that includes a driver for 2 "virtual" devices. These devices don't actually exist, they're implemented with two circular buffers; what's written into one of the devices is read from the other, and viceversa. We believe the buffer is correctly written, but we have the following problem: We can insmod, read, write, and rmmod, and everything's OK. However, as soon as we logout we get 'INIT: Id "n" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes.', where "n" is each of the consoles we were logged in at (5 minutes later, the same message occurrs). We have no idea what it could be, any pointers?

Oops on UHCI module unload (2.4.2-pre1)
When trying to figure out how to get USB to work (it was the MPS setting, more in other post) I got a repeatable Oops (is it an oops? it doesn't say "Oops!" like I thought they do). That is, I'd boot, modprobe uhci, plug something in, get lots of timeouts, unplug the something, modprobe -r uhci. Oops. Attached are two ksymoops outputs, for the two times I did this. I stopped modprobe -r'ing after that, then fixed the problem wrt timeouts, and am now unable to reproduce the bug (even going back to MPS 1.4).

VIA IDE problems related to heat?
I'm looking for confirmations on any kind of correlation between the problems people have been having with the assorted VIA IDE chipsets and possible overheating of said chipsets. I'm asking because I suffered from the VIA-chipset-ate-my-data bug, and I've been trying to reproduce it to no avail. The only thing I haven't been able to recreate is the heat (ambient was ~35C (~95F) at the time), and noticing that now with ambient at ~25C (80F) the heatsink of the 694x quickly hits ~40 when doing heavy I/O, whereas most articles I've read seem to think 25-30C is about right, and that I was doing this heavy i/o thing when the bug bit... if any of you know what temperature this thing _should_ be, and further if y'all could get onto those chipsets with thermometers to see if we have a temp vs. crashes distribution, we might be onto something.

oopsen in 2.4.0-pre9
Several oops come up when using a lot of memory (using imagemagick on PIA1.tif from photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/tiff, on a 64MB machine, for example) The weird thing is the oops happen *after* I've finished with imagemagick (or the gimp, or ...). In this particular situation netscape suddenly died, together with wmtime, and then the whole of X hung. I entered via the network, to find that xfs had died (explaining X's hanging), and as soon as I restarted X the whole box was gone. It still responded to pings, but even the active ssh session was dead and I couldn't get a new one.
