Re: kernel 2.6.15, PPP, keyboard failure and freezing
Hi again. By having a look at syslog after a freeze I discovered that the kernel was oopsing: Jan 28 09:05:16 phi kernel: skb_over_panic: text:8876790c len:1 put:1 head:810022437000 data:810122437000 tail:810122437001 end:810022437600 dev: Jan 28 09:05:16 phi kernel: --- [cut here ] - [please bite here ] - Jan 28 09:05:16 phi kernel: Kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:94 Jan 28 09:05:16 phi kernel: invalid operand: [1] SMP Jan 28 09:05:16 phi kernel: CPU 1 [...etc...] On the suggestion of Christoph Fassbach I gave wvdial a whirl to see if it behaved similarly. It seemed to work flawlessly, until a couple of minutes after connecting when the machine froze, much like it had done when using KPPP. wvdail seems to give a delayed reaction. A similar result appears in syslog. A bit of googling with the syslog stuff and I found that this problem is known (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=347711, http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5857), has been discussed (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/15/113), and a patch exists (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=7086&action=view). I'll add a note to the Debian bug shortly. Peace, Brendon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

aic79xx and hotswap
Hi, Today I installed amd64 on a IBM x346. Everything works fine, except the hostraid. Anyway, I prefer mdadm, so I left the RAID unconfigured. When I started to test hot swap by removing one HD I realized that the aic79xx module seems to crash sometimes. In the worst case the whole kernel crashed. I also tried a 2.6.15 kernel, which didn't make it better. How did I test: I removed the hd, then I used scsiadd to remove the hd. After inserting the hd I executed scsiadd again. Also tried to use the rescan-scsi-bus script, which didn't work at all. Did someone make the same experiences or has even found a solution? greets Jimmy -- Andreas "Jimmy" Gredler ,'"`. http://www.jimmy.co.at/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( grml.org -» Linux for texttool-users and sysadmins `._, http://www.grml.org/| [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I always have to re-do my permissions.rules file after an upgrade.
Check that your mods are still present. Aside from that possibility, I
have no idea.

Mostly. For md0 anyway. I had a problem where my machine got power-outed, and when I booted it back up, the md0 raid device (root device) was running degraded. I never got the email, either ~:^) The tip off was that I was very used to the super fast read performance, which wasn't there anymore. When the box seemed "slow" I started poking around for the reason. Bottom line, you have to check your raid devices after a boot to make sure they're all up and running correctly.

I looked at (but > didn't really come close to understanding ;P) the relevant kernel code, and I Nak. Are you sure you are running an SMP kernel on it? The ht flag means that the processor is hyperthreading capable. If your dad's lappy doesn't show 2 cpus, it may be because HT is disabled in the BIOS. If the BIOS doesn't have an option for enabling HT, then check for a BIOS update! Some manufacturers actually shipped machines with HT capable processors in the early days that couldn't do HT.

udev+amd64
Hi
I am trying to run a program using USB hardware. I added the following
lines to /etc/udev/permissions.rules:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device",GROUP="plugdev", \
SYSFS{idVendor}=="0abf", SYSFS{idProduct}=="3370"
Since then I have upgraded udev to 0.82-1 and reastarted my computer but the
program only works when run as root. A normal user does not have the
permissions to write to the device ( I am in the plugdev group ).
I do run the same program on an i386 machine and there everything works
when run as a normal user with the same lines in /etc/udev/permissions.rules.
Thanks

Re: SATA, RAID, A8N-E, 3800+ help

In subsequent research (including this list archive) it appears that the BIOS RAID is considered 'inferior' to the software RAID support in Linux. So, my questions are: 1) Why is the ASUS BIOS RAID inferior to software RAID on Linux? Not necessarily inferior, but _unnecessary_. As others have pointed out, this is not a real raid controller. The bios does software raid, and the windows driver for the card does software raid for windows (if you use windows at all, that is.) The fact that you _need_ a raid driver in window is a strong hint that the raid is implemented in software - a hw raid controller can be made to look like a single disk on a standard controller - both linux and windows can then handle it without special drivers. So, in order to use a raid with this controller you need a software driver for it. And one exist - the linux software raid (md). It offers raid 0+1, among other things. You can get more space from your 4 disks with raid-5, but raid 0+1 will probably have better performance if you get the stripe size right. Note that bios raid and linux sw raid isn't compatible, so you have to turn bios raid off in order to use linux sw raid. There is no loss involved in doing this though. 2) Is it possible to install 31r1a instead of the Etch release (I'm not overly keen on working with Etch, but will do it if it's a better 64-bit option...In the few days I played with 64-bit Etch it seemed to work well, but I didn't have most of the utilties I need available from the installer/package manager). 3) Do I need to flash the BIOS for things to work? No - linux doesn't use the bios. The bios is only used to set up some hardware at power-on time, and to load the linux kernel which then takes over everything with its own drivers. Flashing the bios is sometimes useful if the old bios has bugs. Or if you want to do something radical like running linuxbios. 4) Is ATI 300 support better in Etch? I haven't tried, but I have the impression that unstable/experimental have more and better support for 3D. But of course there are more bugs to stumble over as well. You may want to try xserver-xorg 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4. (Also upgrade all the accompagnying libx... packages, xserver-common, libdrm and mesa packages. Write down the list of packages upgraded, so you can back out if you hit some showstopper bug. Helge Hafting -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: How big will the 32-bit chroot end up being? What goes in these days?
Thomas Steffen wrote: On 1/23/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: So, as I understand it, the following stuff would need to go into the 32-bit chroot (assuming one wants/needs these things): - Sun's J2RE - OpenOffice - Flash - RealPlayer/Helix/whatever - win32codecs + other misc A/V codecs one might scrounge up elsewhere - Any web browser that you want to be able to use Java/Flash/embedded AV stuff in - the Acrobat Reader - cdrecord/cdrdao plus whatever front end you're using to call them Is that correct? Anything I'm missing? Don't forget all the dependencies that all pulled in by these apps. You might end up with nearly a typical Linux installation. Not quite that bad. There is no need for the xserver for example, as the 32-bit processes have no problem talking to the 64-bit server. And of course the chroot don't need any utilities, bootup scripts, window managers, printing subsystem, login software . . . Most of the dependencies are libraries. You could end up with a sizable chunk of those though. Also consider 64-bit equivalents. CD burning can be done in 64-bit. Frontend software can always be 64-bit even if it controls a 32-bit program doing the work. (Browser+plugin is different, as the plugin isn't a freestanding program. It links into the browser.) Adobe acrobat has a 64-bit alternative in xpdf. Xpdf sure looks different - maybe it isn't a perfect replacement - but it is fine for reading and printing pdf documents. 32-bit java is also something you may be able to do without. 64-bit java is fine for all non-browser use - but of course there is no plugin for mozilla. For java in a 64-bit webbrowser, use 64-bit konqueror and 64-bit java 1.5.0-4 from Sun. It passes the test at http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml, and works with java games at www.darkfish.com. I have not been able to use it for internet banks that use java, but only a stupid bank forces the customers like that - there are other banks! Some people need openoffice, but there are certainly good alternatives. I use lyx for writing (better typography and much faster) gnumeric for spreadsheets (much faster, and just as excel-compatible) and abiword (much faster) when I need to exchange something word-compatible with others.
