Bug#248855: Useful clues for non-working USB keyboard on SunBlade 150 / sparc64
I was wondering if discover plays a role here. I noticed a couple of unknown items in pci.list that match pci ids in my SB100. The USB controller entry seems correct however 108e1103usb usb-ohciRIO USB Hmmm. There may be a clue there. Can you get the output of lspci and lspci -n and send it? If you know what modules should be loaded for what pci ids, that would be very helpful. OTOH, it may mean nothing.

RIO EBUS is some kind of bridge to a memory device bus, things like a flashprom and eeprom. These probably relate to the OpenBoot Prom. The A1701 device seems like it's a power management watchdog, and could possibly need alim7101_wdt. Poking at it in Solaris, it seems to control an i2c-smbus bridge, on the far side of which are the beeper and fan control. the i2c side talks to a MAX1617 thermistor.

Debian permanently hangs during installation boot process
SITUATION Debian permanently hangs during installation boot process. Last boot entry: aacraid raid driver version, Apr 20 2002 ENVIRONMENT Motherboard:... Gigabyte GA-K8NS Pro Processor:. AMD Athlon 64 Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, 80GB Boot Disk:. Debian on CD-ROM, Woody, version 3.0r3 ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND Hard drive new, no previous OS installed, formatted using fdisk under live Linux distro Mepis. Debian also will not boot using other HD vendor in same environment -- HD not a factor. Disk partition: hda1 2GB boot; hda2 10GB linux; hda3 2GB swap. Situation same if RAID set on or off in BIOS. Am aware Gigabyte RAID drivers not available for Linux; didn't expect OS installation problem though. Mepis Linux will HD install on different HD -- but prefer Debian. Also, RedHat 9.0 will cleanly install and boot. Other Linux live OS's, however, will not boot in same environment, e.g.: Knoppix through ver. 3.7 Knoppix 64-bit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

D-I Manual on official Debian website

Do you happen to know anything about that? IMHO these should either be removed or updated. I guess the final location, version and updates of the manual (and release notes) on the Debian website should be discussed.

Bug#285354: cannot resize some (ext3) partitions (ppc+x86)
package: partman version: rc2 Hi, I tried resizing today. In general it works, great! But on two different machines (one x86-k6 with an 160gb ide and a pegasos2 (with amiga disklabels) and a 40gb ide) I encountered two partitions which cannot resize, which is think I should be able to do. These are the partition-tables (created with parted $dev print), on the pegasos I was able to resize swap, backup, varlog and home (but not root and boot, nor mos nor mos-data - but I don't care about the last two) and on the x86 I was able to resize swap but not boot.

Bug#248855: Useful clues for non-working USB keyboard on SunBlade 150 / sparc64
I'm subscribed to debian-boot as well as debian-bugs-dist, so I already get at least two copies of every d-i bug report. I do not need another one in my inbox, so please do not CC me. Most of your recent mails seem to disregard information I sent to this bug report in [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED], so here it is again: langagechooser runs before kbd-chooser so kbd-chooser bugfixes cannot apply to it. I had thought your keyboard was working before you got to kbd-chooser; if not it's probably a bug in the kernel/lack of loading the right module for a usb keyboard. Well here's what I know: Our sparc kernels are built with the usbkbd driver built in, and that's the only USB keyboard support provided. The usb-uhci or usb-ohci drivers are not on there and not loaded, and neither does it try to load the alternative hid-based keyboard drivers (hid, keybdev). So if the usbkbd driver works, using the keyboard in what the kernel calls it Boot Protocol mode I think the sparc stuff should work (unsure if it still needs to load usb-uhci firt though), but if it needs to be in full HID mode, a lot of work needs to be done to get sparc to support that. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hmm, maybe this discovery stuff is all a red herring. Obviously so, since as I said before and above, the usb-uhci and usb-ohci modules are not available on the d-i sparc initrd. Now, usb-linux runs first, and it loads full HID support (hid.o). Not on architectures such as sparc which have no hid.o on the initrd. Rather than stumbling around the d-i source tree lost and confused as you seem to have done, I'd suggest finding a system that correctly supports the USB keyboard and find out how it does it, then apply that to d-i. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Bug#285382: more kernels on the netinst CD
Package: debian-installer Severity: wishlist A 386 kernel was installed, but the system is a Pentium 4, so a 686 kernel is expected This is ridiculous. _You_ should know why a 386 kernel is installed with a netinst installation. I'm not even going to explain it to you. If, you can't figure it out, ask. well, _I_ can't figure it out, so I'll ask: why ? Is it a known bug ? (Why/how) is it related to netinst ? Also, it works fine here: I got a k6, which I installed via pxe and netboot. And it had kernel-image-2.4.27-1-k6 installed automagically. On the net_inst_ CD image only the 386 variants of the kernel are included so, as they are the only ones available to the installation system, they are the ones that will be installed (either the 2.4.27 version or the 2.6.8 version). As you used net_boot_, all kernel variants in the internet archives are available, so the correct one for your hardware will be picked. I do agree with with one kernel we can do a install, but I don't see the limitation on the netinst CD. Please put more kernels on that CD ROM.

I forget the size and its specific space limitations, but it's also intended to be put on 128 mb usb memory sticks with the hd-media initrd, which puts the maximum size at somewhere around 115 mb. Adding 2.4 and 2.6 versions of each new kernel adds about 30 mb to the iso size. We haven't room. In fact at 123 mb, the current netinst is **too big** to fit on the standard hd-media image usb stick image right now, which is rather disasterous. Seemingly useless packages on the netinst include courier-*, esmtp, exim4-daemon-heavy, masqmail, nullmailer, postfix, sendmail, ssmtp. I thought we'd removed all these extra MTAs. Anyone know why the perl package (and perl-modules) is back on the netinst? Perhaps it was added before localisation-config was fixed to work with just perl-base; nothing on the netinst except for courier-base and sendmail-base depend on perl now.

Bug#283303: [sparc] partman breaks the partition table when swap partition is first on the disk
Hello,
As previously noted (see bug trail), this failure is due to the
CREATE_FILE_SYSTEM call to the parted server. I've tried to figure out why
it fails. For that I've compared the function for filesystem creation in
parted_server (command_create_file_system() in parted_server.c of partman
package) and in parted (do_mkfs() in parted/parted.c of parted package).
The functions are nearly identical, except for one essential difference:
the do_mkfs() function (which actually works) calls ped_file_system_close()
on the newly created filesystem and ped_disk_commit() on the disk, where
the filesystem was created. The parted_server's function does NOT do that.
So, as experiment, I've modified it, according to the patch below:
--- partman-61/parted_server.c 2004-09-28 20:08:40.0 -0400
+++ partman/parted_server.c 2004-12-12 21:22:43.975091672 -0500
@@ -1621,7 +1621,10 @@
critical_error(Bad file system type: %s, s_fstype);
ped_partition_set_system(part, fstype);
deactivate_exception_handler();
-fs = timered_file_system_create((part-geom), fstype);
+if ((fs = timered_file_system_create((part-geom), fstype)) != NULL) {
+ ped_file_system_close(fs);
+ ped_disk_commit(disk);
+ }
activate_exception_handler();
oprintf(OK\n);
if (fs != NULL)
This change appeared to be a step in the right direction, but not
sufficient to solve the problem. With this patch applied the partman would
actually hang when committing changes to disk, because all the 50format-*
scripts in /var/lib/partman try to enable swap. Once swap (which is
formatted first) is activated, the ped_disk_commit() operation cannot be
performed, as it requires all the partitions on the disk in question not
to be in use. To work around that I have removed enable_swap command from
the following files:
/lib/partman/commit.d/50format_basicfilesystems
/lib/partman/commit.d/50format_ext3
/lib/partman/commit.d/50format_jfs
/lib/partman/commit.d/50format_reiserfs
/lib/partman/commit.d/50format_xfs
and added a file /lib/partman/commit.d/99enable_swap with contents
#!/bin/sh
. /lib/partman/definitions.sh
enable_swap
With all these changes the partitions were created correctly and swap got
activated. Unfortunately (thanks to Thiemo Seufer for pointing it out),
that's not a very good idea, since on low-memory systems swap is really
required to perform the filesystem formatting.

Bug#283303: [sparc] updated parted_server.c patch
Hi again,
After looking at the sources more carefully, it was noted that
ped_disk_commit() just calls two other functions,
ped_disk_commit_to_dev() and ped_disk_commit_to_os(). The latter causes
the kernel to re-read the partition table, causing a hang if swap is
active. Since we are not modifying the partition table during filesystem
creation, re-reading isn't necessary, and calling ped_disk_commit_to_dev()
works fine with active swap. So, the only modification necessary to
resolve the problem is the following change to parted_server.c:
--- partman-61/parted_server.c 2004-09-28 20:08:40.0 -0400
+++ partman/parted_server.c 2004-12-12 22:40:09.902803304 -0500

bug in Sarge Debian Installer
Hi all, I have discovered a bug in the new Debian Installer. The bug is when using PXE boot install and having an onboard network interface in the computer and a second (pci-)network interface. When you want to install via pxe boot on the added network interface, that is not the onboard, all goes fine until the point where the fetch kernel should load. At this point the computer simple hangs with a blank screen as a result. Disabling the onboard controller does not solve the problem. Has this problem been reported by others?

This required some hacking. It'd be cool if a note on how to do this (like this bugreport) was shipped with the sources. Or perhaps you'd like to ship a PDF with the .deb itself. Anyway, this is what I did: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr...0040801/doc/manual/build% ./buildone.sh i386 en The buildfop.sh script needs the fop package, which is in contrib, since it depends on a non-free java runtime environment. OK, let's try to use the free jade tool. We have to hack the .xml file, since jade seems to be more picky on the XML syntax.

So it's not advisable to use the net_inst CD images on any other hardware than 386 ?! So the netinst-CDs are pretty useless ? (Better use business-card-CDs or whole Sets or netboot...

So the netinst-CDs are pretty useless ? (Better use business-card-CDs or whole Sets or netboot... (or even floppies)) No, that's not correct. The 386 kernel will run fine on almost all Intel and AMD based systems. If you want an optimized kernel for your processor, you'll just have to install the proper kernel-image after the installation finishes (or compile one yourself). Installing with the netinst CD will almost certainly give you a working system. The netinst is intended mainly for people who do _a lot_ of testing installations for d-i; it's to save them downloading a full CD all the time. And it is the best way to test something like a full CD installation. End users will not be advised to use a netinst CD after Sarge has been released anyway, they will be using full CD's (or netboot or floppy or maybe businesscard). -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBvGVVgm/Kwh6ICoQRAjv2AJ4ywBg2K4dXQ+S1VOsJhuZPhiQRzgCg0EjG qXyrndrEIhx7h9srJjTgpoI= =YGPt -END PGP SIGNATURE-
Problem with arch-title-entity

This could be solved by writing all the phrases in one line, without any spaces. Any comments?

Flashing screen
I downloaded my debian woody images using jigdo and burned them to CD. when I try to start the install, right after probing pci hardware is shown my screen flashes on and off at approximately half second intervals. I am running a Compaq Deskpro p2 400mhz desktop. I have a Matrox Millenium g200 AGP video card, and a Compaq v75 17 inch CRT monitor. I want to install linux on a second hard drive to dual boot with my windows XP professional OS.

Re: Sarge and sarge in the manual
Hi Frans, On Sunday 12 December 2004 21:33, Holger Wansing wrote: in german we need, maybe in difference to e.g. english, Sarge (upper case) as discription of the branch and sarge (lower case) for example in filesystem paths. So we need different entities for that. Yes, I can see the need for that. For Dutch a capital S would be preferred as well when referring to the release name. I'm the person who contacted Holger to fix this. I've created two additional entities in common.ent: !ENTITY releasename sarge +!ENTITY releasename-cap Sarge +!ENTITY releasename-uc SARGE - -cap: capitalized - -uc: uppercase That's indeed a solution, but please note that it is the wrong way to solve this. XML is used to separate content and style/formating. What happens if a language team decides to change Debian code names from one style to another one? They have to substitute one entity hundreds of times. The proper solution is to allow each language team to define releasename; and to introduce releasename-dir;. The first one may expand to Sarge, sarge or whatever (what is used in Greek, Russian, Chinese, ... which do not use latin characters?) and the second one to sarge which should be used for filenames, directory names, ... To support this, it's necessary to review the code and to replace releasename; by releasename-dir; (searching for filename should suffice??). When you are sure that it's to late for this change, it's also possible to introduce releasename-name; in the same way as you suggest and to use this in the code (or in a few translations only) when we refer to the name and want our own style. So there's no need to touch English files. PS: I suggest to substitute / *- */ by mdash; (in German we use ndash; instead). Please CC: me, I'm not subscribed.
