[Cooker] status of cramfs initrd in 2.6
Hi,
I've made some tests this night to reduce the size of 2.6 kernel.
I've modularized almost all that can be (except IDE, mouse and
keyboard).
vmlinuz is now a bit less than 1.3 Megabytes.
Compiling ext2 as a module would save us about 70 more kilobytes.
ext2 module is 79k, cramfs takes 13k when builtin.
A cramfs initrd is slightly larger than a ext2 initrd (about 2k).
So I patched mkinitrd and make-initrd to allow to build cramfs initrd.
(patchs included in this mail).
For now, the kernel can't load directly cramfs initrd (because the code
doesn't recognize cramfs magic number), but it can load gzipped cramfs
initrd (because the code can recognize a gzip file).
Well, a patch has been made (by Debian ?) and is included in Debian
kernel, but we don't care much since we can (theorically) load gzip
cramfs.
(I've extracted the patch from Debian's messy patch, it is
included too in this mail).
But when I try to boot with a gzipped cramfs initrd, the kernel
can gunzip the initrd but fails to mount it as ramfs,
sys_mount("/dev/root.old","/root","cramfs", ...) exits with EINVAL code.
Strangly enough, I can mount the initrd correctly once the kernel is
booted up (in this case, I use a ext2 initrd, ext2 and cramfs are
builtin).
Should I ask about it on lkml ?

[Cooker] ATI Radeon 9.2 RC serious bug still present in the 9.2 final
Hi all, I have the ATI Radeon Mobility 7500, when I start mandrake the first time in display with the resolution of 1152x864 I think because the screen appears vary large and every thing such as icons and font is vary small Even if I change the resolution to 1024x768 using the xfdrack using the mandracke control center, the resolution never changes. I tried all Radeon drivers that come with the downloadable version of mandrake 9.2, named Radeon, Radeon fbdev and the Radeon fglrx, with no avail. I even tried the mandrake-enhanced kernel for ATI with the mandrake ATI drivers the commercial rpms, with no hope. I also tried the ATI drivers even though they are for the 8000 series and that did not work to. Note that it was working in previous versions of mandrake and I encountered the same bug in the candidate release and I did report it at that time. even though I am configuring the resolution at 800x600 I still see very thing small I had to enlarge the icon and font size and now every thing is not consistent. Anybody have a solution other than going back to 9.1?

Well, actually after kde-3.2 made it onto my cooker box, I tried the KDE entry, and got IceWM, tried the GNOME entry, and got IceWM, tried the Default entry, and got KDE. My last login to X before the kde-3.2 upgrade was KDE, no idea if that makes a difference or not, but it works for me so I'm not going to change it in the near future. Regards, Buchan

Some large KDE packages were split into smaller packages. This is a good thing, since now you can install kmail without having to install potential security risks (like pppd which is required by kppp), for instance in an office where no-one has a modem. You don't need the scanning libraries just to install a screenshot tool.

No idea why this was removed, after we actually fixed them to work correctly (use filemanagement profile and work in non-KDE desktops).

The strange thing is if I type in startx (ie don't use any form of autologin) It works perfectly So I think it might have something to do with the user authentication problem Mike Frank Griffin wrote: Michael Lothian wrote: I'm suffering the same problem. I just installed KDE 3.2 beta 1 from Cooker (kdebase-kdm 3.1.93 -23mdk) and I have found a problem with KDM session type selection. It just doesn't work. It always starts IceWM even if I select something else. Is this a known problem? Is there any fix available for it? It goes further. If you select GNOME during the first-time wizard, then logout and login, you get a default of KDE. It is after that that everything goes to IceWM.

I would like to see this one also. But, will there be any risk, such as, users could accidently delete stuff from their winbloze partition? No greater than the risk native to Windows can i patch this idea a bit?? run the links to a folder on the desktop (bonus points if you can create a "toolbar" on the desktop) and be a little more obvious with the icons like have a "jail door" or ghost out on nonmounted drives
Re: [Cooker] User says MDK 9.2 is a backward step and requests features
I have reloaded the packages for KPPP 1 and KAddressBook 2
to my system. KAddressBook did find all my e-mail
addresses. Incidently, I also lost the game Freecell. 3
My bigger problem is I can't connect to my ISP through
my modem. The connections got lost when I upgraded. I
did use the config tool to setup the internet
connection, but none of my programs (Kmail, pan,
galleon, mozilla, opera, etc.) can connect, and all
report that they are unable to connect to the
requested host. 4
Finally, my SCSI devices have disappeared. My swap
file is on the SCSI drive, so this is a potential
problem. At least I have 512 meg of memory. 5

addressing the issues
1 package not installed old package removed during upgrade
2 see 1
3 Freecell (another package removed?)
4 auto connect does not work (on my system the setup wizard nukes the /dev/ttyS1 node and does nothing else)
so yes you would need to do a forced dial to make things work {unless AnyDrakes have a few ideas not to include the wizard}
5 moved node/ not installed node problem check the /dev chain ie is the scsi card installed??

[Cooker] User says MDK 9.2 is a backward step and requests features
Hello guys, I give support at MandrakeExpert and there was an incident created by an user very dissatisfied with Mandrake Linux 9.2. If you guys want to take a closer look, the incident number is 72784. The user says after upgrading to Mandrake 9.2 from Mandrake 9.0 he's lost a lot of features and customization he'd made. In answer to him, I said I would forward his complains about mdk 9.2 to Cooker guys to try to improve the next version. What do you guys think about his opnions? Do you think these things can be changed? Below is the message transcript. Later, Alberto M. -- I just installed Mandrake 9.2 over my 9.0. I have lost the following functions, and I want them back. kpp - I had a button on my pannel to launch kpp to dial my isp. Now there is no function there. Superuser file manager - There was a superuser file manager under the file manager section of my start menu. It is now gone. What is the function that it linked to so I can get it back and manipulate the files as root without haveing to mess around with an su in a terminal somewhere? Kmail address book is gone - Kmail is now asking for an address book. I want the one I was using before. Under the configuration menu the login manager asked for the root password and let me do useful stuff. The new version doesn't. So far, I consider 9.2 a major step backward. I have to send this message from Windows. [after, he sent another one]: I have reloaded the packages for KPPP and KAddressBook to my system. KAddressBook did find all my e-mail addresses. Incidently, I also lost the game Freecell. My bigger problem is I can't connect to my ISP through my modem. The connections got lost when I upgraded. I did use the config tool to setup the internet connection, but none of my programs (Kmail, pan, galleon, mozilla, opera, etc.) can connect, and all report that they are unable to connect to the requested host. Finally, my SCSI devices have disappeared. My swap file is on the SCSI drive, so this is a potential problem. At least I have 512 meg of memory. Please help. I have to use Windows whenever I want to go to the net, and I can't install my Win4Lin until I get the internet connection back up to get the latest modified kernel from Netraverse. Finally, can you go back to the old x-windows signon window. With the new one, you can only login for users that are on the list. The old one also allowed you to enter the user's name. I was hoping to change the window, or at least add root to the list by using the login manager from the desktop manager (don't you think this should be in the configuration manager too?), and selected the administrator button. The window appeard to allow me to enter the root password. The main window went blank and said loading. But then it blinked for a minute. I could see that the text boxes were active. Then almost instantly, it went blank again, and the window was as it is when the program starts. So I cannot change the login interface. Is there some way to get rid of the background on all the pseudo terminals on F1 through F6? Can the startup and shutdown all be set to default to verbose mode? The new kde icons look like they were stollen from Windows XP. Any way to go back to the old ones? It does look to me as though you rushed this to the field, and did not do complete testing.

everything works here both with $(objtree) == $(srctree) or with different
obj tree
and about aic7xxx in different objtree -- in vanilla you have to disable
"build firmware with kernel build" (or smth similar) it's fixed in my next
tarball

[Cooker] spamassassin broken - an easy fix?

using patch below there is no need to remove files; they should be updated if

it is not condition. The problem is "-y". It means you are going to build
subdir contents in kernel. But 3rdparty/Makefile does not build
3rdparty/built-in.o itself nor has it any dependencies to build it. If
everything is module it will get only obj-m += ...; and no built-in.o is
generated. I do not know if it a bug or feature.
setting SUBDIRS means kbuild just descends and makes modules as expected. I do
not like this much but I am not sure how to do it differently. check other
top-level makefiles, all of them has unconditional obj-y.

this is for a start :)
attached simple diff for this but that is not what I like very much.
if you are going to do it this way, here is diff against Makefile that
correctly automatically rebuilds Makefile and Kconfig when you add or change
subdirs in 3rdparty. and slightly modified mkbuild.pl
it was useful exercise :) still I ask myself if it does make sense to generate
them dynamically.

well , even then once configured, it will be always in , until it gets
unconfigured
wouldn't it be then sufficient just to prevent module unloading
the unnedded modules will stay in the kernel till reboot, but is that
really a problem, we do have them currently compiled in
or is Joe user going to say:
" Hm i don't need this cdrom/ hard drive right now,
why not free some kernel memmory and unload the
ide module?"

When launching Drakconnect, it keeps insisting on installing adiusbadsl-1.0.4 which overwrites the installation made from tar.gz and erases part of the configuration. Suppose there is an RPM v1.0.5 available, how would it replace the existing 1.0.4 version ? Would it be automagically installed ? From where ? As it would not be the original cdrom and there are chances the internet connection is down...) Could it be possible to deactivate this "functionality" not to be annoyed any more ? And avoid losing configuration... BTW, you are using a config file for pppd that is /etc/ppp/peers/adsl : is it standard ? We had chosen /etc/ppp/options.adsl and had not clearly understood your move in Mandrake 9.1, so that startadsl (provided by the same rpm) would not work without manual creation of /etc/ppp/options.adsl from /etc/ppp/options.adsl.template. Is it the same structure for all modem drivers (either dial-up or ADSL) and for other distributions ? Where is there a recommendation to put it this way rather than the other ? We would like to adapt our scripts to be fully compliant with Mandrake (and remain compatible with other distributions as well).

they are loaded by virtue of MODULE_ALIAS magic :).
{pts/1}% modprobe -c | grep net-pf
alias net-pf-1 unix
alias net-pf-2 ipv4
alias net-pf-3 off
alias net-pf-4 ipx
alias net-pf-5 appletalk
alias net-pf-6 off
alias net-pf-10 off
alias net-pf-17 af_packet
alias net-pf-19 off
(those marked "off" still come from static modprobe.default because they are
not in kernel yet).

that's true, but it's in that state for a long, long time
and how many users are going to load additional ide drivers once the system
is up
and running and unload the ide modules, once they are loaded ?
without modular ide i don't think there is a way to really reduce the kernel
size

[Cooker] [Bug 6187] [drakxtools] connection to Free Dégroupé with sagem fast800 to be adapted

I still propose to work with Mandrake for the next version of the driver. We have a developement wiki available here : http://fast800.tuxfamily.org/eagledev/ and integration is running here http://fast800.tuxfamily.org/eagledev/wakka.php?wiki=DeveloppementIntegration First step would be to stabilize Drakconnect with eagle-usb 1.0.4 version before moving to latest. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. --- Reminder: --- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Following bug 5690, there's still some work to achieve to make it work flawlessly Here's the translation from a thread on eagle-usb forum http://fast800.tuxfamily.org/forums/read.php?f=1&i=6761&t=6761 - in /etc/analog/adiusbadsl.conf, replace VCI=0024 (instead of 23) and Encapsulation=0004 (instead of 6) - files pap-secrets and chap-secrets are modified, which is useless as ppp is not used with Free Dégroupé, /etc/ppp/peers/adsl does not seem created though (which is correct) - connection in action tries to launch both dhclient and dhcpd (one should be enough, static configuration may be better in the end, just a suggestion below) : erasing dhclient package makes it work correctly (to be reproduced) Doing all this, /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/net_cnx_up launches dhcpcd and establishes the connection (as soon as Free makes it's own work). Suggestion : dhcpcd is an heresy IMHO, asking for the static IP may be better in order to configure (and establish) the connection, which would happen this way /sbin/ifconfig eth1 @ip_static netmask 255.255.255.0 up /sbin/route add default gw IP_GATEWAY ip_static should be asked to the user (there's *always* a way to know it, either with an URL or with a mail from the ISP) I haven't yet found a way to determine IP_GATEWAY automatically : it depends on the interface which is mounted. This static manner of connection is correct for Telefonica "IP fija" in Spain as the eagle-usb driver - formerly known as adiusbadsl - works with Sagem Fast800, Comtrend CT-350 and AT-AR215 as well, modems distributed by many ISP worldwide France, Spain, Germany, Poland, England to name a few... (VCI may have to be adapted, though).

you missed my point. modular IDE is unsafe because there is no reference
counting for IDE modules. their patch does not change it, it just adds a
couple of EXPORT_MODULES. Nor does patch really fixes MOD_{INC,DEC}_USE_COUNT
warnings
it can't be solved by fixing compilation problems, it needs serious redesign
of IDE layer.

I mean - referenced in the *code*. this looks like leftover that is not more
used.

it does it already eevn if it does not autodetect them. We still need some
extra code to configure correct modules; probably some ldetect enhancements.

Unless you boot over LAN and need them to access root early. That is what I ask again - just how many users do it? Can it go into yet another kernel? :) At least standard kernel is targeted at home desktop users - am I wrong?

But this is compatibility problem. It is not supported on vanilla kernel so you have to detect patched kernel somehow. And how are you going to do it? You will get a flood of "bug reports" from users who compiled their own kernels (vanilla ones or whatever) and cannot load initrd. So please make it off by default. I assume we could turn it on in kernel post-install script. Is it really as good?

But it will keep *boot* kernel size small making it still possible to fit on a floppy. Or we should officially use some higher density floppy format. Is floppy over 1.44 possible?
