 Same problem here, running linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 (version
 2.6.18-7) on a Dell Optiplex GX620.

Could you please try if the kernel from

http://people.debian.org/~nobse/kernel/linux-2.6/i386/

fixes this problem? If it works for you, I'm going to add this patch
to 2.6.18-9.

Hi Frederik,

On Fri, Dec 15, 2006 at 06:08:08PM +0100, Frederik Schueler wrote:

 I would like to schedule the upload of the next linux-2.6 2.6.18
 version, with the following changes:

 1. new vserver patch, breaks ABI
 2. new Xen patch
 3. Activate PAE on i386 Xen subarch, breaks ABI
 4. arm changes
 5. 2.6.18.5 ABI breaking patch (Honour source routing for LVS-NAT)

 This update bears 3 ABI breaking changes. While the vserver patch might
 be adaptable, the PAE migration of i386 Xen is not. But we need this
 change as a workaround for #399113, otherwise the i386 Xen kernels will 
 be broken in the release, and require an immediate update.
 And since we are already planning an ABI bump, we can add the missing
 changeset of 2.6.18.5, too.

The first two ABI changes are specific to extra kernel flavors that aren't
relevant to the installer and have few (if any?) extra modules built for
them.  If these were the only ABI changes to go in, I would certainly advise
making the change *without* changing the package names, because I don't
think the work involved would be justified, and it would almost certainly
delay the release.

Which means that under those circumstances, I would also suggest not adding
the 2.6.18.5 ABI-breaking patch for etch.

I know these suggestions aren't going to please everyone, but having
distinguishing package names for *unreleased* ABI changes is not RC, and the
difference between the two paths will be significant for getting d-i RC2
released quickly so that we can push on with the release.

 2 more things are outstanding:

 1. a new orig.tar.gz without undistributable firmwares, in order to
satisfy the recent GR on this issue
 2. amd64 kernels for i386

Glad to know that these are still on your radar. :)

Thanks,

 The 2.6.18.6 stable series patches posted by Chris include some fixes
 we should include:
 - fixes data corruption with dm-crypt on RAID
 - fixes bcm43xx retransmits (IIRC there's an RC bug for this)

Is this fixed already in the -8 upload or not?  The changelog mentions that
2.6.18.5 includes a bcm43xx fix:

- bcm43xx: Drain TX status before starting IRQs

Is that not the same bug?

Cheers,

Hi Sven,

On Sun, Dec 17, 2006 at 01:53:36PM +0100, Sven Luther wrote:
 Why is loop-aes not part of the official module packages ? 

Mostly because we have not yet found the time to complete the
integration. Note that the package uses linux-support-$KVERS, so
it is already easy to rebuild for ABI changes.

I hope to start work on full integration sometime during the
next weeks. Most of the required changes have already been done,
so there should not be much left. One property I'd like to keep
is a dependency of the modules on required userspace tools,
which IIRC was not possible yet with l-m-e last time I looked.
Anyways, I hope to have a closer look and write to -kernel 
about this as soon as I get around to it.

cheers,
Max

Actually, quite a few modules packages are being built for the
vserver and xen flavours :

main:
  spca5xx (linux-modules-extra-2.6)
  redhat-cluster  (linux-modules-extra-2.6)
  squashfs(linux-modules-extra-2.6)
  loop-aes(loop-aes)

contrib:
  ipw2100 (linux-modules-contrib-2.6)
  ipw2200 (linux-modules-contrib-2.6)
  ipw3945 (linux-modules-contrib-2.6)

non-free:
  kqemu   (linux-modules-nonfree-2.6)

Unless I missed some, I think this concerns four source packages.
I'm not sure if it would be possible to binNMU / force rebuild of
those, but since linux-modules-* are maintained by the kernel team
and loop-aes by myself, I think we could react quickly and rebuild
them via normal sourceful uploads as well.

 can you try the linux-image 2.6.18, they are in unstable
 and the etch release images.
 
 2.6.18-1-686 kernel still allows to freeze sky2.

Fix didn't go in until 2.6.18.2
   
   fix is in the 2.6.18-2-686 linux image, you'd better update
   your test box.
  
  Just for clarification: there are at least two bugs described - one in
  the above link, and this new one. The former could only be fixed by
  reboot, the latter - by rmmod/modprobe sequence. The former had special
  info in dmesg, the latter does not.
  
  Hopefully they both are fixed in 2.6.18-2.
  I will set it up as soon as time permits (it is my main desktop, which
  is rarely turned off) and report if problem still persists.
 
 Bug still exists in 2.6.18-2 (package version 5).
 Can be 'fixed' by rmmod/modprobe sequence though.
 Is not easily reproducible.

Bug with freeze also exists in 2.6.18-3 (package version 2.6.18-7) - no
messages in dmesg, no interrupts.
It is dual lan board with only one port being used.
rmmod/modprobe sequence brings NIC back to working mode.

Hi Waldi,

On Sunday 17 December 2006 00:41, you wrote:

I believe the RMs want this issue marked as important to be able to track 
it...

 Such an output is quite clear with suspended devices:
  ieee1394: Node suspended: ID:BUS[0-00:1023]  GUID[8565af81]

Can you tell me why the node is suspended? The exact same hardware doesn't 
show this behaviour when running the same steps (modprobe video1394; dvgrab)
on sarge.

This patch gets us back to the Relocation overflow problem, which was
also reported by James Andrewartha on debian-alpha.

 Version: 2.6.15-8
 Severity: normal
 2.6.15 was removed long ago. Please test with 2.6.18 from sid (the
 kernel planned for etch). If you can still reproduce this, open a new
 bug.
 
 I just got one more non fatal Oops yesterday (see below) with
 linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64.  I did not shut down the box, and I am still
 running it.

You do use AppleTalk, right?

Do you use AppleTalk routing? I mean, have you setup your Linux box to
advertise (or participate in advertising) AppleTalk zones?

If so, did the zones disappear after the crash? Did you experience other
problems in your AppleTalk networking - like network IDs messed up?

(I am describing the kind of problems that I have experienced myself but
can't figure out if is related to that bug or not).



 Perhaps the problem is this one (fixed in 2.6.19-pre4):

 http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=201a95afaa324b23188eeec268f6bb0b4b70b710
 
 It is very likely that this is the problem.  It happens in exactly that
 function, and it is a NULL pointer dereferencing.  I am happier now,
 because this means that the Oops is harmless.
 
 I don't have packages for AMD64, but if the problem persists with
 official i386 kernels, then please report back if it is solved by using
 one of the i386 packages available here:

 deb http://debian.jones.dk/ sid kernels
 
 If you want, I can download the sources and compile them for amd64.  I
 only observe the problem on this box.

I won't use your AMD compilation, but it would be great if you can
confirm that the kernel fixes your problem.

Beware that my unofficial package contains more than just that AppleTalk
fix (see the changelog). You may want only that specific bugfix and not
the other tweaks.


Kind regards,

 - Jonas

Yes.  At least, I have it installed and I am connected to a network with
Appletalk nodes.

Do you use AppleTalk routing? I mean, have you setup your Linux box to
advertise (or participate in advertising) AppleTalk zones?

No, it should be a standard install.

If so, did the zones disappear after the crash? Did you experience other
problems in your AppleTalk networking - like network IDs messed up?

In fact, I have it there, but I am not using it.  Maybe I could also
remove it.  But yes, last time I tried to use it, it did not work and I
had not the time to find out why.

Bug#388350: Still problems with 2.6.18

2006-12-17 Thread Carlos Moffat
I still have problems with this bug, using 2.6.18-3.686.

The only new information I have is that if I eject it a very short time
after connecting it, it works fine. After a few minutes, the same error:

eject: unable to eject, last error: No such device

shows up, regardless of one trying to eject from the commandline or
nautilus.

Thanks,

Was etch frozen with 2.6.17 or 2.6.18 ?
If frozen with 2.6.17, was this bug

Bug#403405: video1394 broken on linux-image-2.6.18-3-686

2006-12-17 Thread James McCaw

Hi bugs

I've just come across this too. It is a regression between
2.6.18-1-686 and 2.6.18-3-686 in unstable.

With 2.6.18-3-686 I get errors on loading raw1394 (and hence further
errors when loading video1394). Running gscanbus or attempting to
access /dev/video1394 causes a full kernel panic. The machine
obviously is at risk of locking up completely once that happens and
promptly does.

2.6.18-2-686 didn't die in the same way but also had problems leading
to a kernel panic and full lockup.

2.6.18-1-686 works fine.

Hope that little bit of information helps track down the problem.

Cheers
James

If i try to install linux-image-2.6.18-3-k7 without grub installed then the 
installation reports an error because the package tryes to execute the script 
grub-update. I think if the kernel package executes that script always then 
grub must be a dependancy of the kernel-image packages.

Bug#388350: Ipod eject

Hi,

Another thing I noticed with this bug is that when the eject fails (that
is, if one waits around a few minutes before trying to eject), I get
this in dmesg:

usb 1-4: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6

while if I disconnect right away, and eject succeeds, nothing is printed
to dmesg.

I started to test this and then realised that there is a small problem.
The X1 doesn't have a cd drive so I cannot test it. Is there any chance

Ok, thanks; I did, and xorg is working fine. You have to set

Option  ReferenceClock29.500MHz

in the Device section of your xorg.conf though (this seems known information).

Also, apart from video=atyfb:off I gave the kernel a ide=nodma parameter 
because it complained about DMA timeouts soon after booting. (This, too, seems 
a known issue. Line added to my silo.conf: append=video=atyfb:off ide=nodma)

Afterwards I installed hdparm and found that UDMA3 is the fastest mode in that 
the kernel does not complain (so far, at least). I made this permanent by 
setting
hdparm_opts=-d1 -X udma3
in /etc/default/hdparm.

Maybe this is useful to the next guy installing Etch (or some other post-2.6.16 
kernel) on a Blade 150 (or 100).

Thanks to everyone,

Bug#396185: similar issues with sky2

2006-12-17 Thread The Anarcat
Hi,

I'm having similar problems with the sky2 driver. We've been avoiding
the builtin drivers from the packaged kernels in stable for a while,
but we're now using the backports (2.6.17 from backports.org), and we
(unvoluntarly) have started using the sky2 module. Traffic on the NIC
is usually low, so everything worked pretty well, until I had to rsync
data over the wire, at which point everything went black. The NIC was
still there, but traffic wasn't going through (can't ping the
machine's own IP). I couldn't find error messages in the dmesg or the
kernel log.

I don't have the courage to upgrade to the 2.6.18 kernel since this is
a production machine and I need to resolve this issue very quickly.
I apologize for not having a test machine for doing this.. We're
putting a new infrastructure live tomorrow and can't afford
uncertainty at this point...

We've reverted to using the manufacturer's driver at this point:

 FYI
 The new Debian Installer using the
 2.6.17 kernel does NOT fix the
 CD drive problem that is covered
 by bug 387767.  I just downloaded
 the Net Install image and tried to
 install from it and had the same
 problem.
 
 Please try it with the new 2.6.18 kernels, which are scheduled for the etch
 release, and should enter d-i soon.
 
 There where some CD related fixes which where applied recently.

 Was etch frozen with 2.6.17 or 2.6.18 ?
 If frozen with 2.6.17, was this bug
 resolved some other way ?

Etch will have 2.6.18, and the 2.6.18 kernels are in etch rigth now.
