Ok, i asked benh, and he mentioned some patches from thibaut varene on the
linux-ide llist, but i don't really have time to go hunting for theme. Could
you find them, and then attach them to soem bug report against linux-2.6, and
we will apply them ? Probably too late for 2.6.14-2, unless you are very fast,
but it should be in 2.6.14-3.

Exact, yaird cannot build initrd's running on a 2.4.27 kernel, since it need
/sys, which is only present in 2.6 kernels.

So, you have two ways, either use initramfs-tools instead of yaird (altough
mostly untested on powerpc, may work though), or do an intermediary upgrade to
the sarge 2.6.8 kernels or the etch 2.6.12 ones, reboot and then install, not

No, because there's already a bug open about that, on 2.6.8 at least.  I

I'll try out clean sources from kernel.org and see if they have the same

  And yes, the powerpc64 flavour is smp only, so it will enable both your

 Thank you, that was the one.  Sorry for the noise.  Perhaps you could
 put excluding any 64bit cpus in the powerpc and powerpc-smp parts of

The description thingy needs to be tweaked some, and we will go into that

I installed linux-image-2.6.14-rc5-powerpc-smp from there, on a dual
G5 powermac, and it fails to boot.  Here's a manually transcribed copy
of the boot messages:


Well, give the -powerpc64 flavour a try, will you ? the powerpc and
powerpc-smp are 32bit flavours for processors from the original PPC601 upto
the latest G4, but _excluding_ any 64bit cpus, like the IBM power3/4/5 and the
PPC970, aka G5 :)

And yes, the powerpc64 flavour is smp only, so it will enable both your CPUs.


Thank you, that was the one.  Sorry for the noise.  Perhaps you could
put excluding any 64bit cpus in the powerpc and powerpc-smp parts of
debian/control?



The description thingy needs to be tweaked some, and we will go into that
nextly.

Sven Luther

Shouldn't it depend on udev?

I installed it and it works without udev.  I have an Aluminium 15.

 Yes. I try.

A workaround if you have this problem:
Insert a section

  It happens only during suspend-to-ram, or

 Only suspend to ram.
 After suspend, I need only to run alsamixer and key M to turn on
 master volume. (Or fn+F5 to increase the volume)

2005-10-25 Thread Sven Luther
Hello,

I just uploaded 2.6.14-rc5 packages to experimental, which are a test run
before 2.6.14 gets released and the corresponding packages go to unstable.
Since they are NEW i have made them available under : 

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5

And apt-gettable at :

  deb http://http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5/ ./
  deb-src http://http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5/ ./

Those are only powerpc packages now, but i send this mail in hopes that :

  1) powerpc users use them and test them out, with either yaird or
  initramfs-tools (but beware #335264 which will be fixed in -9).

  2) other kernel porters use the above source packages to prepare binary
  uploads to experimental as the autobuild network may (or not) be flakey.

Well, obviously those are for etch/sid, not yet running onsarge, but i will
provide powerpc backports once 2.6.14 is there.

Enjoy and provide feedback in case of error or success :)

Sven Luther

  Hello,
 
  I just uploaded 2.6.14-rc5 packages to experimental, which are a test run
  before 2.6.14 gets released and the corresponding packages go to unstable.
  Since they are NEW i have made them available under :
 
http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5
 
  And apt-gettable at :
 
deb http://http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5/ ./
deb-src http://http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.14-rc5/ ./
 
  Those are only powerpc packages now, but i send this mail in hopes that :
 
1) powerpc users use them and test them out, with either yaird or
initramfs-tools (but beware #335264 which will be fixed in -9).
 
2) other kernel porters use the above source packages to prepare binary
uploads to experimental as the autobuild network may (or not) be flakey.
 
  Well, obviously those are for etch/sid, not yet running onsarge, but i will
  provide powerpc backports once 2.6.14 is there.
 
  Enjoy and provide feedback in case of error or success :)
 
 I am running the kernel I built from the source package. No problem.
 Just a question : is the option CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y useful ?

PREEMPT is still evil and thus disabled, no idea, read the comments (or the
code :)

Friendly,

Sven Luther

nice, works for me, too.  We should work on Microsoft internet explorer,
so that it redirects the users to http://www.debian.org/ in such situations.

All the best,
Jochen


PS.: does anybody know where the http://www.microsoft.com link comes from?
Is this compiled into firefox?  Or do they own some magical catch-all domain?
Or what?

It comes from the Google I'm Feeling Lucky feature that Firefox
makes use of if you enter something that doesn't qualify as a URL into
the URL bar.

Sure enough, if you do a search for http using Google, the first hit
you get is Microsoft Corporation.

Hi,

When suspend to ram, the master volume of alsa is turned off and
sometimes down to 0. I have this error message:
localhost kernel: failed to set volume

Best regards,

Can you rerun depmod and see if it fixes this issue ?
