This is probably related to bug #279648. There are some reports in there 
that sound like they are actually this bug.

VesaFB doesn't work (blank screen) if compiled in statically in 
version 2.6.9. The same configuration worked with kernel-source-2.6.8. 
If I compile VesaFB as a module and load it via /etc/modules (I don't 
use initrd) the display works after the module has been loaded. Is there 
any more info you need about my kernel or lilo configuration?

Lets start by cleaning up the bugs. I am closing 309682 as it is a
duplicate of 279648. I am also closing 28223 as on examining the
kernel-source-2.6.11 source it appears to be fix, if someone has
experience to the contrary, please reopen it. And I am reassigning
279648 and 282234 to kernel-source-2.6.11 as it is currently assigned to
kernel-source-2.6.9 which has not been suported for quite sime time now.
I don't even think it is on d.o anymore. And as to the severity of the
bug, I don't believe the guidlines specify age as a parameter for bug
seveirty.

As for 279648 itself, the bug report seems to indicate that disabling
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB (a very green piece of code introduced in 2.6.11 bug
probably not ready for prime time) resolves the problem, and the current
kernel-images (for i386 at least) do just this.  Could you take a look
in your kernel config and if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB is enabled, please
disable it.

Thanks

In this kernel, there is still the bug #279648 (console vga mode
problem) present. 

Since this bug is nearly 1/2 year old, and not present
in kernel.org-kernel maybe someone should check the debian-(vesafb?)-patches.

I think #282234 has something to to with this bug.

I have added this as a build dependancy for all the kernel images that
are in the kernel team's svn tree, that is alpha, hppa, i386, ia64,
mips, powerpc, s390 and sparc.  This should appear in their respective
next releases. I have CCed the uploaders of these packages, if you are
one of those people and have a reason to undo this change, please do so,
I have no ambitions to tread on your toes.

I imagine this followed from not wanting to include the code in question
in the debian kernel, which in turn I would guess boils down to either or
both of the following:

1. The Debian kernel doesn't add patches that aren't upstream.

2. The Debian kernel can only include DFSG free code.

And I imagine the road to finding a solution that doesn't completely
suck for users, has to keep both of these points in mind. On the
other hand, I haven't checked the code in question, and both of
these points may be invalid.

Bug#316809: kernel-source-2.6.11: tell where to find the Debian .config

2005-07-03 Thread Andrew Pimlott
Package: kernel-source-2.6.11
Version: 2.6.11-7
Severity: wishlist

I wanted to rebuild a kernel-image package starting with the same
.config in the official Debian packages.  One way to do this is to
install the kernel-image package, which contains it in /boot/config-XXX,
but it's annoying to install a huge kernel-image package you're just
going to replace.  It took me a good while to notice that the .config
file is also in the kernel-headers package (obvious in retrospect), in
/usr/src/kernel-headers-XXX/.config.  That's also a big download for
just that file, though I already happened to have it installed.
Finally, I discovered that the kernel-image _source_ package is
(contrary to intuition) a tiny little thing containing little other than
the .configs.

I would suggest either copying the .configs into the kernel-source
package, or putting clear documentation into the kernel-source package,
say in README.Debian:

If you want to start with the same kernel .config used in the
official Debian kernel-image package, get it from the _source_
package for the relevant kernel-image (don't worry, it's a small
download).

BTW, the kernel-headers-2.6.11-1 package contains
/usr/share/doc/kernel-headers-2.6.11-1/config-2.6.11-1.gz matching
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.11-1/.config; however the
kernel-headers-2.6.11-1-686 contains no such file in /usr/share/doc.  Is
that intentional?

Quite likely, yes. 2.4 Kernels would need to Build-Dep on 3.4.

Hi,

Would it break kernel 2.4 builds somehow ?
I've not been quite following; but the thread almost a month ago

There is a --initrd flag you need to pass to make-kpkg to have the initrd built.

depmod -a after module install

2005-07-03 Thread Tzafrir Cohen
Hi debian-kernel folks,

I'm trying to modify the package zaptel-source (generated from source
package zaptel). That package is used to build a kernel modules package
called zaptel-modules- (zaptel-modules hence forth).

Currently the package zaptel-source has a postinst script that runs:

  if [ "`uname -r`" = "_KVERS_" ];
  depmod -a &
fi

That script is probably useless for the source package itself, as it has
no kernel modules itself, and the kernel version at the time of its
install is irrelevant to the kernel that will be built later. I moved it
to the postinst script of the gemnerated zaptel-modules package (I
fogure that an appropriate postrm script should be added).

However I noticed an error in a script that installed that package. I
noticed that this script runs:

  apt-get install zaptel-modules-$kernel
depmod -a

The error message was from depmod, because the two runs of depmod
aparantly colided. The manual install of depmod could be removed. But
what would have hapanned had I run:


  apt-get install zaptel-modules-$kernel other-modules-$kernel

and the package other-modules-$kernel had the same script? Any chance
the same error would occour?

So what should I do:

1. Drop that postinst script. Require more work from the installer

2. Keep the script as-is

3. run 'depmod -a' with no '&' instead, and possibly further delay
   installation?


Please CC me your reply, TIA.

Package: setserial
Version: 2.17-41
Severity: normal

Hi!

Maybe this is not a bug in setserial but in the 2.6.8 kernel:
setserial reports high values for close_delay and closing_wait.
When I try to change close_delay to 3000 with setserial, the is 3,
with 300 I get 3000.

This is what I get from setserial with kernel 2.6.8:
/dev/ttyS0, Line 0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 5000, divisor: 0
closing_wait: 37856
Flags: spd_normal skip_test
With kernel 2.4.25 I got close_delay=50 and
closing_wait=3000.

Best regards

Oliver
