USB mouse not detected on boot of 7-STABLE

2009-08-13 Thread Luke Dean


I'm tracking 7-STABLE.
Recently.. within the last month or so..  my simple USB mouse stopped
being detected at boot time.
The /dev/ums0 device simply does not appear unless I unplug the mouse
and plug it back in again.  Then it is detected.

I don't even know where to begin looking for answers to this one.

Is there something I can do to force the system to rescan for my mouse
to save me from crawling around on the floor whenever I reboot?

This happens to me also. Strange thing, when I plug the mouse into a
port that is connected directly to the motherboard (not via a hub), it
is detected. When connected to a hub (the integrated hub on my P5K),
it is not. Could it be that FreeBSD fires up the hub after trying to
detect the mouse?

Update - RELENG_8 open for business (but you probably noticed)

2009-08-13 Thread Robert Watson


Just a quick status update from the release engineering team:

As was discussed on this mailing list, problems with the Subversion-CVS 
exporter arose during the RELENG_8 branching process.  These have now been 
resolved, and for the last day or so, pending bug fixes have been rushing into 
the branch.  We'll wait a couple more days while things catch up, and then cut 
8.0 BETA3.


You can read more about the status of 8.0, including tracking pending and 
approved fixes, on the 8.0 release engineering wiki:


  http://wiki.freebsd.org/8.0TODO

Your help in testing, diagnosing, and fixing FreeBSD 8.x problems *before* the 
release is much appreciated!

Hi, I was just curious if the mfi0: Copy out failed message in the logs was
something I should be worried about. The box seems to be working fine. The
system is FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #0: built on Sun Jul 26 15:06:46 CEST 2009, AMD64.

For what it's worth, I've noticed that running MegaCli pops out a few of 
those messages, but only if I don't have the 32-bit compatibility libs 
installed on my amd64 system.  Once lib32 gets installed, the messages go 
away.  In any event, they *seem* to be harmless...

I am not using an external hub.
The mouse is not detected during the boot process.
It is only detected if I unplug it and replug it after booting.
It worked fine in 7.x until recently.

I had the exact same problem.  Not only did my mouse not work on

The only solution that I tried was upgrading to 8, and presto, worked fine.

8.0 has an all new USB stack (thank HPS and a host of others) and it
ROCKS! Hardware that simply would not work on the old stack is operating
flawlessly on 8.0-BETA2.

One note if you want to try 8.0. You will probably need to update all of
your ports to avoid library version mis-matches. Most notably, you need
to rebuild any port that uses libusb and it is now a standard system
library. Ports linked against the old ports libusb will not work after
the upgrade. 

I suggest upgrading to 8.0, deleting libusb, and then doing a
portupgrade -fa (or the portmaster equivalent).

Another workaround may be upgrading to 8.0-* and using sysutils/libchk to parse 
through all your binaries and libs for discrepancies using script(1) to log the 
output so you have a reference to look back to. If all else fails you can 
always resort to the method above if your confidence is not very high on this 
method. And you can always second guess a port and then reinstall it when or if 
it gives you problems.

( /usr/bin/script /root/libchk_output /usr/local/sbin/libchk )

This process could actually take much more time and intervention than what is 
actually needed on some minimal systems so I will let you be the judge for your 
self on whether this may be right for you.

Best regards.

 Does this include hardware such as the Huawei E220 HSDPA USB Modem?

No, I have no such modem to try.

It does support Aladdin eToken Pro 4.2B and later SmartCard Tokens
(which was my big issue) and seem to inter-operate properly with power
management features like deep sleep states and such. Lower power drain. 

The new stack in simply batter organized and cleaner as well as being
designed with knowledge of many of the problems with the old stack. Lots
of timing issues and the like that plagued the old stack have vanished,
although I'm sure it introduces a few new issues.

This happens to me also. Strange thing, when I plug the mouse into a
port that is connected directly to the motherboard (not via a hub), it
is detected. When connected to a hub (the integrated hub on my P5K),
it is not. Could it be that FreeBSD fires up the hub after trying to
detect the mouse?

Regards,

Ronny Mandal



see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=131074

it seems that FreeBSD, at least 7.x, cannot detect appearance of new 
hardware plugged into external HUB at runtime, it can detect such a 
hardware only during boot process


I am not using an external hub.
The mouse is not detected during the boot process.
It is only detected if I unplug it and replug it after booting.
It worked fine in 7.x until recently.


I'm sorry, Dean, my reply was to Ronny's message, not yours :)

I can't tell you exactly what the error message means, but out of

perhaps?



Yes, mfi0: Dell PERC 6.


You may want to contact Scott Long, sco...@freebsd.org, to see if he can 
help.  I believe he's the author/maintainer of the mfi(4) driver.  He may
be interested in any problems you've seen.  I've heard of some other 
people having issues with PERC6 cards and FreeBSD as well.

Hi, I was just curious if the mfi0: Copy out failed message in the logs was
something I should be worried about. The box seems to be working fine. The
system is FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #0: built on Sun Jul 26 15:06:46 CEST 2009, AMD64.

Actually, I have no idea what it means.  That message needs to print an
error code, and it doesn't.  If you're comfortable with your C coding
fu, change the driver to print the error that triggers the message as
part of the message.

Do you have Legacy USB support enabled in the BIOS?  If so, try turning it 
off.


I tried it both ways.
I get some waiting for BIOS to give up control messages for some of my
/dev/usb devices in the dmesg now too, even with legacy USB support
disabled in the BIOS.
Thanks for the suggestions.  Maybe I'll try upgrading to 8 soon.

Going to BSD 8 from RELENG_7

2009-08-13 Thread Dan Allen
I cvsup and build RELENG_7 many times a week.  This has served me well  
(except for the ZFS boot problem I had that went in and was backed  
out) for quite a while.


I like to track a STABLE release.  When BSD 7 went to 7.1 and to 7.2,  
it all just happened automatically with the way I do things.


Now I am interested on one of my BSD machines to try 8.0.  I need to  
change my cvsup target from RELENG_7 to CURRENT I believe.  Is that  
true?  When will STABLE become 8.0?


Also, does anyone know if there is a project page that talks about  
8.0, its timeline, its features, etc?  If you type 8.0 into the main  
freebsd.org web page it find nothing on the entire web site.   
Obviously something is wrong...


Thanks!

Re: Problem with IBM Thinkpad T30 shutting down due to high temperatures

 Hello list,
 
 for some time now my T30 shuts down due to temperatures exceeding the
 safe limit of 92 degrees celcius.
 Regardless to say that a 2GHz pentium4m powers the machine, and these
 chips are well known for high temperatures.
 But I'm unable to do anything that causes high load on the laptop:
 Building world or complex ports makes the system reach the limit
 within minutes. A few days ago I configured xcompmgr, which even seems
 to make the problem whorse (yes, composite extension is enabled).
 What I don't know is if this is a hardware error, or something caused
 by the kernel. I wrote a small script to monitor  dev.acpi_ibm.0.fan
 dev.acpi_ibm.0.fan_level, hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature and
 dev.cpu.0.freq, and it sometimes appears that the temperature of the
 CPU rises, but the kernel doesn't decrease the clock in time. I tried
 setting hw.acpi.thermal.polling_rate=2, but this didn't seem to work
 out, too.

Your description is somewhat generic, so the best I can do under the
circumstances is to give you a generic suggestion.

Add something like

hw.acpi.thermal.tz1.passive_cooling=1
hw.acpi.thermal.user_override=1
hw.acpi.thermal.tz1._PSV=75C

to /etc/sysctl.conf and reboot.

Please, note that on my laptop, relevant thermal zone is TZ1, which
might or might not be the case for you -- if it is not -- change tz1 to
whatever is appropriate.

If this does not work, things, which are needed to help you further,
include:

1. output of uname -a
2. output of sysctl hw.acpi.thermal
3. output of sysctl dev.cpu
4. output of grep powerd /etc/rc.conf
5. output of sysctl dev.acpi_ibm

It would be good to have output of (#5) from several points under the
load.

Also, please, consider following advice on cleaning up dust and possibly
re-applying the thermal paste given elsewhere in the thread -- on my
2-year old laptop doing both shaved about 3C from the normal operating
temperature.

HTH,

By BSD, I hope you mean FreeBSD.  I think BSD is still at version 4.4. :-)

8.0 is still in -BETA2.  8.0-STABLE will be after -BETA3, and the
release candidates.  If you want 8.0-STABLE, you do not want CURRENT,
you want RELENG_8.

HTH.

One distinctly low-tech solution would be to get a USB extension
cable (not a hub with a cord, just a USB-A male to USB-A female
cord) to plug into the machine, and plug the mouse into the cable,
so that you can unplug and replug without having to grub around in
the back of the machine.
