Re: Kernel 2.6.38 for squeeze

Am 17.04.11 06:01, schrieb Thomas Goirand:

I have an old laptop with a bad internal WiFi board, so I bought a newer
RaLink driver. To make it work, I had to add the option rt2800usb -
Include support for rt33xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL) and rt2800usb -
Include support for rt35xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL). These are not
activated in your build (I've just checked).

I believe that one of the most important point of running a backported
kernel is to have such drivers for newer hardware. Could you please
include the option above? The options to activate are as below:

CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX
CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT33XX
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX

If you include the above options, I'll be able to test your backport
instead of the quick and dirty one that I did myself.


That's something that should be done in the package itself, not just in 
the backport. I added the debian-kernel mailinglist to CC, but you 
should just file a bugreport against the package in unstable.

 I didn't hear back from the drbd maintainers, but I did get some
 testing feedback from a drbd user (thanks to Lukasz Oles, bcc'd)

sorry for not coming back to you earlier, I was quite out-of-order for
the last weeks because of a skiing accident.

 My plan is therefore to:
  1) Commit these changes for inclusion in the next linux-2.6 upload
  2) After that upload, I will file an RC bug to request the removal of
 the drbd8-source binary from the drbd8 source package

No problem from my side.

Bug#511085: 60 seconds timeout for ipconfig is not enough

2009-01-07 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92n

Hi,

in 0.92m, the timeout for ipconfig in scripts/functions was set to 60
seconds. This broke our iscsi-rootfs setups.

It took me a while to debug this, but it seems that 60 seconds is not
enough for switches which have spanning-tree enabled, they need some
more time before they take up a port, in our case between 62 and 65
seconds.

Please raise the timeout to 90 or 120 seconds.

Norbert

Agreed, I'm going to drop the smp flavour in 2.6.17-10.

python2.4-minimal dependency

According[0] to Steve, the python-minimal package should not be
used as a dependency by other packages. I think it's the same for
python2.4-minimal.

Upload of 2.6.16-10

2006-04-24 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
Hi,

2.6.16.10 was just released, hence I'd like to upload 2.6.16-10 as
soon as possible (tomorrow), to fix the FTBFS on alpha.

Any objections?

Re: Backports of linux-2.6 and dependencies

2006-04-04 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
* Bastian Blank wrote:
 The backports.org archive carries current versions of most needed
 packages to run new kernels on Sarge but some of them (eg
 initramfs-tools) are outdated,

That's because backports.org is based on testing, not unstable.

It's the same reason why 2.6.16 isn't available on backports.org yet,
but I already prepared updated linux-image, udev and initramfs-tools
backports on http://people.backports.org/~tretkowski/upload/

 some are seriously broken (linux-2.6 uses the same abiname as the
 versions in sid/etch but provides a different abi due to the usage
 of another compiler).

Indeed.

 The advantages of this solution, compared to the current status, are
 automatic updates on new release of udev/klibc/whatever

And automatic breakage when something in unstable breaks. That's why
we're using testing.

 To implement this solution, we need help from both the backport and
 the kernel team: we need autobuilders and we need someone for every
 arch to verify and approve the packages for the archive.

An updated version of kernel-package (and make as it's dependency) is
also needed.

It's currently not possible to build linux-2.6 with testing, because

backport when I add add the backport of 2.6.13.

 How does backports.org work? Is it autobuilt? If yes we could use
 that and forget about volatile for now.

Not yet, but Joerg Jaspert is working on the setup currently.

Have you tried to run 'update-grub' by hand?

The dropped alpha patch is no longer required with 2.6.12, at least on
my systems the kernel works fine without it.

I'm not sure what you mean with 'seems to be out of date in SVN', SVN

Bug#305330: kernel driver starfire for the Alpha architecture

2005-04-19 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
* Bob Lindell wrote:
[...]
 I added an additional || defined (__alpha__) expression and
 compiled the driver. I tested it on a PC164 running the Sarge
 2.4.27-2-generic kernel. Seems to run correctly on the Alpha. All 4
 ports of the card worked properly.
 
 This fix needs to make it upstream to the driver maintainer for the
 Linux kernel. It is broken on the Alpha for all recent 2.4 and 2.6
 kernels.

Thanks for your bugreport. I'll contact upstream of the starfire
driver within the next few days.

 i presume that you are not using hotplug/discover.
 
 I most definitely use discover, as I found out the hard way
 (/etc/rcS/S36discover caused a kernel panic by loading two
 conflicting SCSI drivers, see bug #301486).

This bug was fixed with the uploads of kernel-image-2.6.8-alpha
2.6.8-9 and initrd-tools 0.1.78 from yesterday.

 I have no module mousedev, but modprobe psmouse activated the mouse.
 Now, why doesn't it work out of the box?

Good question... I have no idea. Looks like a bug in discover to me,
not really kernel related, so I'm reassigning it.

 This is what 2.4.27 says.

Hmm... I'm wondering why qla1280 is included...

For a workaround, replace 'qlogicisp' in /usr/sbin/mkinitrd with
'qla1280' and make sure qlogicisp is not listed in
/etc/mkinitrd/modules and /etc/modules. Then run the following
command:

mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd-2.6.8-2-generic /lib/modules/2.6.8-2-generic

Reboot the system, qlogicisp shouldn't get loaded from the initrd and
the system should run fine.

I'll try to modify mkinitrd accordingly ASAP.

 I didn't do anything, I just booted the kernel as installed by

Hmm... what's the output of 'lspci' on your system? The problem is
that both, qlogicisp and qla1280 are included in your initrd, that's
known to make problems.

Why are you loading both, qlogicisp _and_ qla1280 on boot? Disabling
the qlogicisp module should fix your problem.

Unfortunately I had no time to modify initrd-tools so qla1280 is used
for ISP1020 controllers.
