Bug#525232: Please enable CONFIG_ITCO_VENDOR_SUPPORT

2009-04-23 Thread Michal Čihař
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-15
Severity: wishlist

Hi

can you please enable CONFIG_ITCO_VENDOR_SUPPORT in kernels? It adds
support for some specific hardware which requires extra initialisation
to TCO watchdog.

Bug#525247: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686: iwl3945 fails to detect WPA TKIP wireless network

2009-04-23 Thread Olivier Berger
Package: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686
Version: 2.6.29-3
Severity: normal

My wireless network is no longer detected with 2.6.29 whereas it used to work 
with 2.6.26.

The network is a WPA 1 TKIP.

I noticed that neither lib80211_crypt_ccmp nor lib80211_crypt_tkip are 
loaded... which may indicate some kind of problem with the renaming of the 
80211 API in 2.6.28 (IIRC), similar to what is reported in 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487445 (although for a different 
driver).

I tried and load these modules manually before or after modprobing iwl3945, 
with no more success.

In any case, this looks like a regression.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

 I wonder if I did something dumb like 
 
 rename 's,^(.*)$,$1.conf' in /etc/modprobe.d to try and
 shut out Marco's annoying warning messages?

yep, the symlink pointed nowhere anymore..
the modprobe message should disappear soon, i hope...

I'll try -2-686 but I don't expect it to work differently.  Then I
suppose I'll try building custom kernels, or maybe I'll try grabbing
the tg3 driver from 2.6.18 or 2.6.8, back when things worked.

relation of trunk-amd64 to trunk-common/ kvm problems

2009-04-23 Thread Ross Boylan
Thanks to some earlier advice here, I'm running
linux-image-2.6.29-trunk-amd64; I kept crashing with earlier kernels.

I tried to build the kvm modules but ran into errors (using
module-assistant).  It couldn't find some header files.  These files
seem to be in the -common package but not -amd64:
ii  linux-headers-2.6.29-trunk-amd64 2.6.29-1~experimental.2~snapshot.13314 
Header files for Linux 2.6.29-trunk-amd64
ii  linux-headers-2.6.29-trunk-common2.6.29-1~experimental.2~snapshot.13314 
Common header files for Linux 2.6.29-trunk

Could anyone explain to me what the relation is between those 2
packages?  I suspect that one needs both sets of include directories to
buid properly, but m-a is only picking up the -amd64 stuff.

I've googled and looked at the Debian Wiki, but haven't found anything.

Also, if you have any tips on getting kvm running, I'd love that
too--even if the tip is known not to work with 2.6.29.

I'd appreciate cc on replies.

Thanks.

Ross Boylan


P.S. image is 
linux-image-2.6.29-trunk-amd64   2.6.29-1~experimental.2~snapshot.13314

Bug#525296: other stuff I tried

2009-04-23 Thread Greg Wooledge
First, I updated to 2.6.26-2-686 (from Lenny), but this has the same
problem for me.  No command I know will set that NIC to full duplex
under that kernel.

I tried building a custom 2.6.29.1 kernel next, but it panics when
it can't mount /dev/md0 as the root file system.  I'm not in the mood
to try to figure out how all this initrd stuff works.  Too much work.

Next, I rebooted into etch's 2.6.18-6-686 kernel (this is an etch-lenny
box, with the old kernel still there).  This works fine for me, as far
as I can tell so far.  The NIC goes into full duplex mode due to the
up sleep 5; mii-tool -F 100baseTx-FD eth0 line I have in
/etc/network/interfaces, and all the things that should be running
(NFS, Samba) appear to be running.

Then, I tried building upstream tg3 drivers against the 2.6.26-2-686
kernel headers.  I was able to build tg3-3.92n and tg3-3.98e modules
successfully, but I was not able to build 3.77e or 3.81e, nor was I
able to build the tg3.{c,h} sources yanked out of a kernel.org
2.6.18.8 source tarball -- all of those failed with messages like
error: implicit declaration of function 'netif_poll_disable' (and
many more).

I rebooted into 2.6.26-2-686 again, unloaded the tg3 driver module,
and loaded the tg3-3.92n and tg3-3.98e modules in turn, and attempted
to set the NIC to full duplex using mii-tool and ethtool.  All of
these attempts failed.  The NIC was left in half duplex mode after
bouncing up and down for a few seconds.  (Except in the case of
3.98e + ethtool, where the command aborted with an error without even
touching the NIC.)

For now, I am running on 2.6.18-6-686 since this kernel's tg3 driver
supports what I need.

Bug#484177: userspace firmware available for keyspan driver

2009-04-23 Thread Eric Cooper
These patches seem to provide the necessary bits for the keyspan
driver to go back into the kernel, with userspace firmware in nonfree:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/30/196 
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/30/205 

I have one of these devices and would be happy to test it.

Bug#525351: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686: audio broken on x40

2009-04-23 Thread Andres Salomon
Package: linux-image-2.6.29-1-686
Version: 2.6.29-3

Hi,

On my x40, audio is now broken with 2.6.29-1-686.  I believe that this is a
Debian-specific regression, as a stock Linus kernel (tag v2.6.29) doesn't
have this problem.  Some apps (ie, ones using gstreamer) simply refuse to run;
others simply output white noise through the speakers/headphones.

The audio card is:

00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM
(ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01)

00:1f.5 0401: 8086:24c5 (rev 01)

On 2.6.29-1-686, I see the following in dmesg:

[   12.256024] intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 55438 usecs
[   12.256069] intel8x0: clocking to 48000

[   12.360065] MC'97 1 converters and GPIO not ready (0xff00)

When attempting to play audio via gstreamer/totem:

** Message: Error: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.

Note the lack of pcspeaker in the list of alsa devices; I suspect that the
problem is related to alsa attempting to pipe audio through the pcspeaker
hw device rather than the soundcard's normal device0.

Hi Ben,

checking linus' tree and davem's current net-2.6 tree shows that the
code was removed as of commit: 0a834a36ac92375cd82d9e4fe4f571e257997d6a

it was put in 2/14/2009, and was included in 2.6.30-rc1 by linus.

are you suggesting that we maybe try to push to -stable too?

Thanks.  I had a look but somehow missed that this was already on the

If you now have the information you need about contention, then it seems
to me that it would be worthwhile to remove the unnecessary warnings.
If you don't want to submit a stable update then I can patch it out in
the Debian kernel package.

I'll try -2-686 but I don't expect it to work differently.  Then I

the tg3 driver from 2.6.18 or 2.6.8, back when things worked.

So you enable autonegotiation and then use mii-tool to override it
behind the driver's back, and you expect this to work somehow?  Forget
it; this is not a bug.  Either use autonegotiation and fix whatever is
wrong with the other end of the link, or disable autonegotiation and
force settings with ethtool.
