have you tried
a) adding ext4dev to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules

or
b) setting in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
MODULES=dep

ext4 is not stable for the lenny released kernel, aka 2.6.26,
but 2.6.27 had a nice merge

Yes and No.

1.  "pnp_reserve_irq=5" does not work because the module who accepts that 
parameter is unknown. At least parport_pc does not understand that. 
2. "options parport_pc io=0x278 irq=5" does not work.
3. This one, call it minimum adequate intervention in userspace, works:
"options parport_pc io=0x378,0x278 irq=7,5"

The observation with your two patches applied against 2.6.27-rc3 says that 
without any BIOS reservation using the above options line is enough for the 
kernel to know that parport 0 gets IRQ 7 and parport 1 gets IRQ 5.
This is what I would call progress.  :)
The second advantage is that those annoying MPU 401 messages should be gone 
now.  :)

But: the sound card module is not loaded anymore, and I have seen some 
checksum error, some hex address or similar.
Looks like that:

pnp 01:00: get resources
 01:01: invalid checksum 0x59
 01:01: card 'Analog Devices AD1816A'
isapnp: 1 Plug & Play card detected total

That also does not change if I free up IRQ 5 and / or 10 in my BIOS.
IRQ 10 would then appear in the system info as unused, but the sound card 
module won't load.

No, not within the latest state of development.

If I were so easily to satisfy I would not spend that enormous amount of time 
for finding solutions  :)

Please see two attachments:
1. 2627rc3.txt
2. messages.txt: the complete log inheriting all dmesgs (because you mentioned 
you would miss some info)

PS.: The only thing missing now is the plug and play driver passing IRQ 10 or 
11 to the ISA PnP sound card WITHOUT BIOS changes.

That's it what I would call the optimal compromise

On the other hand: If I do need to force everything by BIOS changes or 
additional kernel parameters then the PNP driver concept is worthless.

I understand that a Non-PnP ISA card needs some help at least by kernel 
parameters, and if the same module touches a PNP device this PnP device must 
be mentioned too in the kernel parameter statement, but the rest of the 
ressources should be assigned automatically, shouldn't they?

Uwe

P. S. 2: Kernel 2.6.26 behaves totally different: it simply ignores the kernel 
parameters and assigns IRQ 5 to the sound card, whatever happens.
You do not have any chance to assign an interrupt to rthe second parport, if 
you do not change your BIOS values. To achieve that I do not need any PnP 
architecture, do I?

options parport_pc io=0x378,0x278 irq=7,5
no BIOS reservations!

Bug#494984: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686: eeepc 900 - No boot without ac adapter

2008-08-13 Thread Andrea Lorenzetti
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-2
Severity: important

Hello,

my eeepc 900 running sid does not boot no more without ac adapter. Or better it 
boots without errors, then X comes up 
and then system automatically shuts down.

"/var/log/kern.log" reports:
--

Obviously that temperature is not true, in fact if I plug the ac adapter and 
then boot system works perfectly.

I see several things that should be fixed in ISAPNP.  I'm working
on those, but they're probably post-2.6.27 material.

In the meantime, are you seeing new problems that were introduced
between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27-rc3?  If so, I should try to fix them
right away so we can get a fix in 2.6.27.

Your original report of "WARNING: at lib/vsprintf.c:609 vsnprintf+0x36/0x43d()"
has been fixed already.  I *think* the remaining issues about the
parport1 IRQ and the MPU401 are related to the BIOS configuration
and the parport_pc module parameters and are not regressions from
2.6.26, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for your patience with all this.  I'm putting together an ISA
machine at home now, so hopefully I'll soon have a way to test this
better without wasting your time.

Bjorn

In fact I found no new regressions, which is good.

Yes. Well done, Bjorn!  :)

One can for sure regard that all as BIOS-related.
With one exception: The parport1 issue is resolved at least for me:
Adding "options parport_pc io=0x378,0x278 irq=7,5" to etc/modprobe.d/arch/i386 
solves the problem without the necessity of freeing up an IRQ in the BIOS for 
that second parport which is a non-PnP ISA card.
IT IS comprehensive that a Non-PnP card needs additional kernel parameters.

What IS NOT comprehensive is the fact that currently I need to free up IRQ 10 
for ISA use only to ensure that snd-ad1816a is being loaded. And that card is 
definitely a PnP sound card!
I'd be very happy about a solution that completely avoids BIOS intervention...
And there is still the issue how to get rid of those nasty MPU 401 messages.
What is a comprehensive message that shows that this device has been loaded 
and registered, although it resides in an interruptless state?

Patience does not belong to my strengths - lack of patience is the main reason 
why I was excluded from lkml.org.
On the other hand you never wasted my time at all - the opposite is right:
It's a pleasure to work with you, Bjorn!  :)

Thank you for the response. I tried step b) and it did fix my problem.
I've thought about editing /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf, but
the man page seemed to suggest that most would include everything.

Thanks,
Wei

Cool. Thanks for the tip.

However, nocrt didn't work at the kernel command line. Searching 
revealed that this is a thermal module parameter. Either pass 
"thermal.nocrt=1" to the kernel (not tested) or add "options thermal 
nocrt=1" to /etc/modprobe.d/local.

Note that initrd's have to be updated after changing modprobe.d

Yes, I'm using "options thermal nocrt=1" in /etc/modprobe.d/local.

Ignore the bit about the kernel command line (I was confusing it with
the "acpi=off" I had to use first to get it to boot past the temp
shutdown, but that was much too crude ...)

Bug#495014: linux-source-2.6.26: IDE reset, DMA, 32-bit access killed on hald startup, via driver

2008-08-13 Thread David Baron
Package: linux-source-2.6.26
Version: 2.6.26-2
Severity: important

I am compiling in the via ide driver via82cxxx

Kernel boots up fine until hald starts. At this point, an 0xd opcode/busy is
reported and IDE is reset, DMA (and 32bit, etc) disabled.

I can restore these parameters with hdparms but this will lead to problems.

I noticed in the sources compared with 2.6.23 that the timing setup was changed.
This might be the problem (also had on 2.6.25). Possibly the "old" way is
necessary or a needed option.

Here is the logcheck section (hal startup shows on bootup display)
Aug 12 17:54:58 d_baron kernel: ttyS1: LSR safety check engaged!
Aug 12 17:54:58 d_baron kernel: hdc: dma_intr: status=0xd0 { Busy }

(hda, hdb DMA, other parameters disabled as well.)

how indicate that a kernel module package is obsolete?

2008-08-13 Thread Eric Cooper
I maintain a kernel module package (eeepc-acpi-source) that has been
merged into the mainline Linux kernel as of version 2.6.26, and has
had features added, bugs fixed, etc.

The standalone module is still useful for the 2.6.25 kernel, but will
be unnecessary in lenny+1.

I'd like to somehow indicate that the resulting eeepc-acpi-modules-NNN
packages are obsolete when NNN >= 2.6.26.

1. I can make the package fail to build (under module-assistant or
   make-kpkg) when the kernel version is recent enough. I don't know
   whether this kind of "conditional build failure" is acceptable
   practice, but it would keep useless .debs out of the archive.

2. I can make the package continue to build, but have the resulting .deb
   conflict with, as well as depend on, the corresponding linux-image
   package, so it becomes uninstallable.

3. I can do nothing at the package level, and rely on "educating
   users" to not use this package for recent kernels.

I'd appreciate any guidance.

Cheers,
Eric

Lenny will release with 2.6.26, so it is already unnecssary.

The support for featuresets != none in linux-patch-debian-X is not
