kernel module

2010-01-08 Thread Luca
Hi all,
 I created a kernel module which can be passed some command line arguments
(I tried that with insmod and it works).

Now I would like, when I start the kernel with grub, to have this module
loaded at boot time so I can pass, at boot time, a kernel boot option to it.

I mean having something like
kernel vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 initrd=linuxrc mymodule.param1=myparamvalue
initrd 

is it possible?

Thanks,
 Luca

entropy

2010-01-07 Thread Luca
Hi all,
 if I simply write to /dev/random, will that increase the entropy of my
system? (I'm assuming that the data I'm writing are random and that somehow
I got them).

init: illegal runlevel (null)

2009-12-17 Thread Luca
Hi all,
 here is a description of what I'm trying to do.

I created a small rootfs with buildroot and I gPXE booted it. Once that is
running I do

mount -t tmpfs -o size=4G mount -t tmpfs -o size=4G none /tmp

(I have a system with 8GB of RAM)

and then i copy with scp a new rootfs (rootfs.img whose size is around
2.5GB) under /tmp

At this point, this I run this simple script

#!/bin/bash
cd /tmp
mkdir newrootfs
mount rootfs.img newrootfs
cd newrootfs
mkdir oldrootfs
pivot_root . oldrootfs
exec chroot . sh -c 'exec /sbin/init' dev/console dev/console 21

I can see the new root is rootfs, but still there is something not working.
When I run the script I get the message

init: illegal runlevel (null)

Any idea of what can be wrong?

Thank you all,
 Luca

Re: init: illegal runlevel (null)

2009-12-17 Thread Luca
Ok. Reading the pivot_root man page (http://linux.die.net/man/8/pivot_root)

to change the root fs

mount /dev/hda1 /new-root
cd /new-root
pivot_root . old-root
exec chroot . sh dev/console dev/console 21

So I changed
exec chroot . sh -c 'exec /sbin/init' dev/console dev/console 21
to
exec chroot . sh dev/console dev/console 21

I do not see any complains, but the /proc dir is empty now.

If I try to change run level though I get

telinit 5
telinit: Unable to send message: Connection refused

Thank you,
 Luca

Second reply from tom spot :)


[...]
 uhm, I would like to better understand your points, are you sure this
 policy is not a bit restrictive?
 
 I think the selling point on the licence is related to brushes, not
to derived artworks. If you sell fedora, you don't sell the brushes, but
a work made with it. The brushes are used in indirectly way.
 
 I think copying the full web page is intended to avoid stealing idea
and web page, for example if I copy his webpage and I show as mine. 
 
 What do you think?

I think I didn't look closely enough. :)

The link you sent me is to the Brush author's interpretations of how
he/she thinks the license that they have chosen works. I mistook this
for the actual license. The actual license that they are using for the
brushes is Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 (which ironically, is what I
suggested that you ask if we could use). This license is fine for
Fedora. We do need to be sure that we give the original author of the
brushes attribution credit. A text file which accompanies the art that
gives credit to the brush author and a link to the brush website should
be sufficient.

Btw, the author really doesn't understand how the CC-BY license actually
works. However, please don't correct their misunderstandings, because I
suspect they would choose a different license that we would have
problems using. :)

 Maybe it's just me but tradition sounds like an over-used word (mostly in
bakery products :D).

Picture Perfect short and punchy, I like it but it doesn't really say
anything related to the brief or Fedora or...

I like the 11/heaven rhyme, yet I'm not sure about using 11. After 9-
it might have a strange sound to it.

A code of freedom - I don't know what movie it's about but it makes sense.
For the end user dough features are important not the code. And for code as
in code of honour we need to change the temple in the artwork with some
round table knights castle. But I like it. A lot. A code of freedom - even
sounds good.

Rahul's Friends of Freedom has 2 of the 4F's(*). This is a very good start
already. If it doesn't sound gay Friendly Freedom might became the base of
a good slogan. Friendly Freedom Akademia ;)


(*)I'm sorry if somebody gets offended by 4F - it's a loosing battle.
Short of life threats, anybody would say 4F's instead of 4 Foundations -
that's how language works.

 Like all the different spins, this is just a matter of convenience. Many 
 of the Fedora users go to a third party repository like Livna to get 
 additional software. This live cd reduces that hassle and makes things 
 easier. Also for people who are relying on media (CD/DVD) instead of

I completely agree! Sometime I don't understand which is the real goal:
find *the best* fedora theme or do whatever to try to denigrate the
others?

This is the point. And *is related to some issues and questions* about

login fails

2008-08-28 Thread Luca
Hi all,
 I have a workstation with Fedora 8 installed. Everything was working fine,
then I guess I messed up something in the /usr and /var directories.

Now when if I boot at run level 3 everything is fine, till the login
message. Then the login gives me the message Login incorrect before I can
even enter the password. This happens if I try to login as root or normal
user.

The /etc/passwd file seems to be ok.

Can someone help me? Thanks

initial ramdisk with NFS support

2008-08-21 Thread Luca
Hi all,
 I'm using Fedora 8 x86_64.

 I'm trying to build an initial ramdisk which is capable of mounting a
directory through NFS. I was able to do that with the 32 bit version. In
that case my initial ramdisk had portmap (and the needed library). After
starting portmap I was able to mount a directory from a NFS server. Now if I
try to use rpcbind I get a lot of errors like
rpcbind: Cannot get local address fro udp: servname not supported for
ai_socktype
rpcbind: Cannot get local address fro tcp: servname not supported for
ai_socktype
rpcbind: cannot get uid of 'rp': No such file or directory

Is it possible with fedora 8 (the 64 bits version) to have an initial
ramdisk which mounts a directory through NFS?

Thanks!

[Linux Day Italy] Fedora Distribution Kit

2008-08-10 Thread Luca Foppiano
Hi all, 
I'm Luca and, with other Italian ambassadors I'm organizing Linux Day
2008 (planned on October 25th). A more detailed description can be
founded here [1][2].

Italian Linux day is distributed and a more bit complicated than
centalized events like, for example, Linux Tag. 
We wish to deliver to every events (but we most probably reduce it on a
subset due to budget and interest) a box that contains all necessary to
build a fedora USB station (It's like Ikea [4] furniture).

We need to decide a nice name for the box, right now the proposal are:
 * fedora starter kit
 * fedora distribution kit
 * fedora usb kit

which name do you prefer? if you have another ideas about it, just write
it ;-)

We need also artworks; I spoke with Samuele Storari about it and he was
very enthusiast ;-)

I also made a request here [3] which i composed by:
 * box artwork: a small sticker, which will be attached on container box
(probably we need a new logo, or something can remember people this
product)
 * DVD artwork (same of above)
 * Fedora 10 USB kit artwork (which will similar to fedora 9 arwork but
with new fedora theme, when will be ready ;-))

I haven't any idea about what we can represent on artworks. 

I hope you can help us.

Thanks in advance for all feedback
Luca

general purpose fedora slide template

2008-05-14 Thread Luca Foppiano
Hi all, 
I'm looking for a general fedora slides template. Right now I found
only:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Presentations?action=showredirect=Marketing%2FSlides#head-b406b553b6493a2ec75085856639b4cecc479d11

but are too many customized to old fedora releases.

IMHO a generic template may be useful and it should be something similar 
to fedoraproject wiki style.

HP6910p suspend/resume problem

2008-01-24 Thread Luca

Hello everyone,
	a few days ago I wrote about a problem suspending my laptop with 
default kernel and suspend on a HP6910p laptop. Somebody suggested to 
take a look to the HAL info DB for the suspend quirks.


Browsing through that page, I've found a command that proved to be 
useful to suspend the laptop:


pm-suspend --quirk-s3-bios --quirk-s3-mode

This showed a few issues though, in particular:

* sometimes (empirically 20% of the times) the laptop does not wake up, 
while the fan keeps running


* when the laptop wakes up, brightness is low. Using xbrightness does 
not help, and the only thing to do is to kill and restart X


I don't know if and how the two things are related, but any suggestion 
is welcome!


Cheers,
Luca

Re: iwl3945 - any hints with F7?

2007-09-29 Thread Luca Botti
Hi,

on my Dell Latitude D620 I am using the iwl3945 from kernel-2.6.22.5-76.fc7 
without any problem.
The only issue is the led (not working anymore) but the connection is stable 
and fast. More stable, i should note, than with ipw3945 which dropped 
connections now and then. 
I am using it all through the NetworkManager, and my home network is a WPA 
protected network.
Also, i updated the kernel with every release, and worked beautifully.
By the way I should note:

 - Suspend to ram works with nvidia
 - Compiz-fusion works beautifully
 - The issue with virtual consoles, nvidia and suspend to ram went away with 
the latest nvidia driver.

Contact me for details.

  Last time I've tried was kernel-2.6.22.1-41.fc7

 Today I've tried with 2.6.22.7-85.fc7
 The same situation. 'wifi' LED always off, not able to connect, even to
 unprotected AP.
 On the other hand, ipw3945 works OK, as always.
