Linux md mac partition scheme
Hi, I'm trying to set up a software raid array on my Powermac G5 box. I created two partitions using mac-fdisk and created the md array with mdadm --create /dev/md/0 -l1 -n2 /dev/sda4 /dev/sdb4 The array is accessible, it works fine, but... After reboot the kernel does not recognize the array automatically. I want to boot from this (root fs) array, so I can't set it up using a script at boot time. Two weeks ago I installed Debian on a RAID 1 array using debian installer (had to set it up manually, partman can not create raid partitons), but I can't remember what I exactly have done. Maybe the kernel does not recognize the raid partitions, because the type is not set correctly. I used mac-fdisk to create the partitons (used Linux_RAID for type). When using msdos partition scheme, I can set the partition type to 0xfd and it works fine. But openfirmware can not access disks with msdos labels. So from where should I load yaboot?

Hi all, For I don't know what reason (more on that in another thread) pbbuttonsd started detecting keyboard activity. So far so good.

Re: pbbuttonsd beta on new Powerbook5,8
Hi all, On 20 Jan, this message from Michael Schmitz echoed through cyberspace: So I'm back to statuc device files, and I previously had event0 .. event3. I have created the other ones til 31, and indeed pbbuttonsd opens them all. But event4 ... event31 all report ENODEV. Just wondering ... Does the USB keyboard driver report events at all? I'll check that with an external keyboard ASAP. I have activity detection working now. I have no idea what made it work, might be something to do with mouseemu (which was stopped at that moment because it ate 100% CPU). But it's not determinsitic; I first thought it was a plain incompatibility with mouseemu, so stopping that should make everything work. Well, no luck, it's not that easy. Neither the fact that mouseemu is running in parallel, nor the order in which thez are started seems to matter. There is one change, though, I replaced the earlier FN-key patch (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=3856) with the newer one (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=4127). But I can't se what impact this can have on event detection. I'm still on 2.6.15rc5, but udev works OK there. It's been a bit dodgy to get started IIRC, but that's been a while back. Concerning udev, I'll recheck and file bugs as appropriate. Cheers Michel - Michel Lanners | Read Philosophy. Study Art. 23, Rue Paul Henkes|Ask Questions. Make Mistakes.

AFAIK automagic kernel recognition is not implemented on PPC yet, so
you'll have to specify your RAID partitions manually, e.g. :
append=md=0,/dev/sda2,/dev/hda2 md=2,/dev/sda4,/dev/hda4
in your {quik,yaboot}.conf (this is for / on md0 and swap on md2)
You don't need to specify every RAID partition, though -- root and swap
should be enough if your array is correctly configured.

Simon

Re: AGPGART driver for ArticiaS - ioremap() problem
On Sat, 2006-01-21 at 02:59 +0100, Gerhard Pircher wrote: Yes, I see. :( The code mostly allocates the resources for the AGPGART driver beyond the real memory space, thus preventing the X server to work. Sometimes the resource is also mapped to where the resource of the graphic card resides (address 0x8800, compare with the included iomem file). The AGP aperture should generally be located outside of those spaces. That is above RAM and in some place where no device already resides... It can be made to overlap RAM but that isn't a good idea (that's what happens on Macs though due to a bug in the Apple chipset). Please take a look to the attachments. But the allocation seems to be different now! Strange!? At least the AGPGART driver is not allocated to bus 1. I don't see anything related to AGP in your output... you didn't post the lspci as root thus it's missing all the useful infos ;) Also, the AGP base isn't generally a PCI BAR of the bridge... it is one in your case ?

[PATCH 001/001] PMAC HD runtime blinking control
Hi,
I've finally spend the time to mend the patch for control of
the HD led blinking at runtime. This is a patch against
2.6.15
The sysfs entry is attached to the PCI device and to the
MACIO device if available. I think that was what Ben was
asking for:
lauren-ph:/sys# find . | grep blink
./module/ide_core/parameters/noblink
./devices/pci0001:10/0001:10:17.0/blinking_led
./devices/pci0001:10/0001:10:17.0/0.8000:mac-io/0.0001f000:ata-4/blinking_led
To activate blinking:
echo 1 ./devices/pci0001:10/0001:10:17.0/blinking_led
To deactivate it:
echo 0 ./devices/pci0001:10/0001:10:17.0/blinking_led
There is also a boot time parameter idecore:noblink to
deactivate the blinking at this stage.

Doesn't boot: stops after displaying HID0 values (still in early boot text console). I have to check if that's a known issue. Try booting with btextdbg on the kernel command line... You may get more informative output Anyway, I have the latest patch I found in the linuxppc patchwork (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=4127) I have the keyboard backlight keys working now (pbbuttonsd beta). So some keys are working at least. The LCD backlight keys worked once, but not anymore after restarting pbuttonsd, no matter what I try. I have not yet tried if after a reboot backlight adjusting works again. I'm starting to wonder if all this is a pbbuttonsd problem perhaps? Do you have automatic backlight control in pbbuttons ?

Re: Linux on new iMac G5 PowerMac12,1 ?
Very good and thx! This works and I was able to start the Debian installer, to partition the disk, init with ext3 and begin the Net- Install. DHCP worked just fine. Let's wait for X support then, would be kind of nice to have. However, the graphical Linux Penguin Logo of the kernel showed up OK! -Percy On Jan 21, 2006, at 9:51 PM, Benjamin Herrenschmidt wrote: On Sat, 2006-01-21 at 21:29 -0500, Percy Zahl wrote: OK, that was my fault and I got a set further now. I hardly got a glimpse on the linux kernel output now again, because it stopped after dumping about one screen of stuff in almost no time with a blank screen this time. But I took my fast digital camera and was able to capture it: The first stage after hitting retun at the yaboot prompt (install): http://mysite.verizon.net/pyzahl/iMac/imac12,1-stage0-linux2.6.16- rc1.jpg Then this for about 1/10 of a second before I got black screen and needed to power off: http://mysite.verizon.net/pyzahl/iMac/imac12,1-stage1-linux2.6.16- rc1.jpg It seems that the video driver is having a hard time with the new x600 card in there. (In fact, X doesn't work neither, at least not yet it seems). In the meantime, you can probably get a console if you boot with video=ofonly on the kenrel command line.

Yes, with ofonly it sticks to the 8 bits framebuffer initialized by the firmware... enough to display the penguin but not much more unfortunately... I'm not sure yet what's up with the video. I might ask you to send me register dumps and to try various things later, maybe next week, I'm a bit offline at the moment (vacation).
