Hi Pascal, I use powernowd for governing, and for testing have a cron job which builds the Debian python2.4 package from source (via pdebuild) every 30 minutes. powernowd governs according to system load, and this test has the effect of causing frequent power transitions. Usually the problem occurs within 2 hours. If you enable the cpufreq_stats driver in the kernel, you can see a count of transitions at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats/trans_table. Thanks for giving this a try. Please let me know how it goes. --John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: sil3114 problem
Dear all, thanks for your replies. I would like to use "real" raid. As I have to use Windows and Linux, software raid will not be that good for me. Additionally, it will not be that fast for cutting of films from my camcorder. I checked the Promise SX4M (or so). On the manufacturer page, there is no information, that this is also software raid. Additionally a guy said, that it works fine in sarge. What I figured out is that this is the same sh... but with hardware support. Of course, Linux still does not use the raid functionality. So I guess, I will have to change this card to a 3ware, which is a lot more expensive. But it should work. At least I hope so. Do you know any other good hardware raid controllers, that are not that expensive?

flow-tools on amd64
Hello #320998 was filed on flow-tools recently describing a problem i couldn't reproduce with the packages in sarge/sid on my i386. However the user was running amd64. If anybody has the time, i would appreciate if they tried to reproduce it and send me some more information. Basically you can apt-get install flow-tools, stop flow-capture if it was started (/etc/init.d/flow-capture stop) and then run: flow-capture -w /tmp/temp-2214k -V 5 -n 1439 /0/0/9100 After that check the logs for errors of flow-capture not being able to create directories.

Does ftp.nl.debian.org mirror amd64 debian? amd64.debian.net is one place that has it. It lists a few other mirrors, but not very many.

unable to install Gnome via netinstall (apt = sarge)
I'm attempting to reinstall Debian via netinstall CD. My problem comes in the packages install section where the "Desktop Environment" option fails to do anything. Some other options seem to do the right thing. Is Gnome currently broken on sarge amd64? I'm using repository ftp.nl.debian.org. I previously tried a sid repository and had less luck - more packages seemed to be broken! Any help? Cheers!

powernow-k8 woes -- need help diagnosing intermittent failure
I'm having a hard time diagnosing a powernow-k8 problem. It works fine for several hours of power throttle stress testing, but eventually the following error appears: kernel: powernow-k8: detected change pending stuck kernel: powernow-k8: transition frequency failed kernel: powernow-k8: failing targ, change pending bit set After this failure, any further transition request yields: kernel: powernow-k8: failing targ, change pending bit set which effectively renders power throttling unusable on my system. I've tried two different brands of motherboard with the same Via chipset, and see the same failure. However, if it's a chipset problem, I'd expect to see similar problem reports from other users, but I can't find any. A call for help: if you have the Via K8M800 or K8T800 chipset, or specifically the DFI K8M800 or Chaintech K8M800 motherboard, and can either confirm or deny this power throttling problem, please contact me. Even if you have a different chipset but the same CPU, and can claim that powernow-k8 runs flawlessly, I'd like to hear it. Any other ideas on how to diagnose this would be appreciated. * motherboard: DFI K8M800 (Chaintech K8M800 has same failure) * kernel: stock 2.6.13-rc4 (tried several other versions) * CPU: Athlon 64 2800+, socket 754, stepping 10 * memory: tried Ultra and Viking PC3200 DDR 400MHz --John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

hi guys, there was a thread about sources for 2.6.12 kernels on debian-user. i was just wondering how to get these sources for amd64. they propose (for 32bit, i guess) deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free to /etc/apt/sources.list # apt-get update # apt-cache search kernel-image or # apt-cache search linux-image # apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-1-686 apt-cache search kernel-image gives me a bunch of 2.4.x and 2.6.8-11 entries only on my machine what i have to do to have these sources on my testing (currently kernel 2.6.11). i downloaded the packages for kernel i'm using just now myself... or are these packages in unstable only? i'd like to stay with testing, however new kernel might bring more support for my hardware... search for 2.6.12 amd64 gave me http://packages.debian.org/unstable/base/linux-image-2.6.12-1-amd64-k8 thanks for any hint. best regards, -- Lubos [EMAIL PROTECTED]" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
