[Bug 416499] Re: Installer doesn't recognize Windows 7 NTFS partition properly

2009-10-01 Thread Adam McDaniel
I've heard reports of this too.

While I haven't had a chance to verify it myself, a user on IRC reported
that this used to work with Windows 7 build 7100, but now fails with
build 7600.

He was testing originally on jaunty on a netbook LiveUSB. An in-line
upgrade to karmic's ubiquity (1.99.28), ntfs, and partman utilities
failed to resolve the problem.

Once I can get a chance to recreate this problem, I can post more info.

Yes, the rt2860 driver is upgraded to v1.8.1.1 in my netbook kernels,
WPA/WPA2 encryption is working for me on my 901. The kernel is available
today for download, however, the site isn't yet updated.. (that's next on
my list:)

If you want to try it today, use the repository path

  deb http://www.array.org/ubuntu jaunty main

Then install either the 'linux-netbook' or 'linux-netbook-eeepc' packages.
This will set you up with either

  2.6.28-12-netbook (or)
  2.6.28-12-netbook-eeepc

Complete instructions and details will be made available at
http://www.array.org/ubuntu as soon as I debug my perl/mysql code :P

2009-04-12 Thread Adam McDaniel
Troy... FWIW I've ported rt2860sta v1.7.1.1 to the v1.8 branch in the
upstream kernel staging driver.

I've supplied a patch to Greg KH, labelling this upgrade as v1.8.1.1.
This version works for me on my 901 with WPA, WPA2 and WEP encryption.

The patch itself is only available via the linux-next.git repository,
and not yet standard in the main kernel itself AFAICT.

The patch can be accessed here:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=commitdiff;h=ed291e8051ee418de7ccd3507c1e783323fd1c35

Note, If ubuntu doesn't include this with Jaunty's final release, I will
be applying this patch to my Netbook Jaunty kernel, TBA...see
http://www.array.org/ubuntu .. I'll post an announcement there within
the next few weeks.

[Bug 246141] Re: no support for realtek rtl8187se

2009-01-12 Thread Adam McDaniel
Interesting. Note the staging directory though. I think that this is a
preliminary step before full support is available.

I'm curious to see how the linux kernel will merge the rtl8187se's
ieee80211 stack with the existing kernel's stack.

I attempted such a merge once, but found that the rtl8187se's code
relied on non-standard ieee80211 code (hence the alternative stack) and
I was really uninterested in rewriting the entire driver to make it
work. :T

pciehp_slot_with_bus?? .. that is new to me, and not a standard pciehp

Where/how did "pciehp_slot_with_bus" get added?

I have heard from EeePC >= 901 owners though that "pciehp_poll_time=1"

Something funky's going on at ralink. They're obviously not following standard 
release conventions.
If you crack open the code you'll find badly aligned spacing, spontaneous 
switching between LF & CRLF, and poorly defined naming conventions.. even goto 
statements   Very sloppy, IMO.

Glad to hear atleast v1.7.1.1 is giving better results than v1.8.0.0 for
you.

Got it:

Note, this version does have the full EEEPC_SPECIAL_SETTING patch, as
described earlier. As well as the earlier patches to enable building on
2.6.24 and 2.6.27, so it should also work on hardy.

You may need to uninstall 1.8.0.0; or installing this version may

2008-10-13 Thread Adam McDaniel
Some very interesting developments over on eeeuser.com forums.

One of the users contacted ralink about the crappy encryption methods,
Ralink sent them v1.7.1.1 "specifically designed for the eeepc".  The
most interesting changes here include major updates to
include/firmware.h

http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=409002#p409002 (for the download 
link)
http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=409326#p409326 (for my assessment of 
the differences)

There is certainly code in v1.7.1.1 that is missing from both v1.7.0.0
and v1.8.0.0.

I don't know what kind of development process ralink takes, but
something fishy is going on in their release cycle.

[Bug 259878] Re: Please support EEEPC 901 Variant of the ALC269 snd_hda_intel

2008-10-01 Thread Adam McDaniel
After applying the alsa_eeepc901_fix.diff patch, there are some specific
alsamixer settings that need to be set on those new channels, otherwise
the new channels wont actually record. (Note, most users cite Skype as
their software use-case, Skype just seems to do the "right thing" when
presented with these additional channels, hence the lack of earlier
instructions:)  ... Here's what I use to set the alsa channels on the
command-line (the same can be performed with gnome-volume-control and
alsamixer, but I find using this 'amixer' example as easier to get the
point across):

  amixer sset "Input Source" "Front Mic"
  amixer sset "Capture" "80%" "cap" "unmute"
  amixer sset "Front Mic Boost" "30%" "unmute"
  amixer sset "Front Mic" "100%" "mute"

Note1: That muted "Front Mic" refers to the output channel. Unmuting
this will result in some nasty feedback between the internal mic and
speakers.

Note2: Running this command on Intrepid may also require "-c 0" before
sset. It might have been my own wonky alpha5 install settings, but for
some reason PulseAudio was the default card 

Note3: I *believe* these four channels are available on ANY eeepc
(700-1000h) with the appropriate patch installed, however I only
actually own a 900. If one of these commands fail, run "amixer" and
study the output before giving up.

2008-09-24 Thread Adam McDaniel
BTW, I've added bluetooth control (a very minor change) to eeepc-
laptop.ko, based upon more recent (and deprecated) eeepc-acpi.ko code to
my local clone of ubuntu-intrepid.git:

commit e3c8316f0a41fdea91ee1e087578119000f24a9f
Author: Adam McDaniel <>
Date:   Mon Sep 22 16:53:06 2008 -0600

EEEPC: Added bluetooth attribute to /sys/devices/platform/eeepc/bt
accessible through eeepc-laptop module, just like deprecated eeepc-acpi 
module.

Eventually this can be used to switch the built-in bluetooth radio
on/off in this eeepc-laptop module, too, without the need of user-space
ACPI scripts.  Unfortunately, I cannot test this patch directly as I
don't have an EeePC 901/1000/1000h.

If someone with one could apply it and verify if
"/sys/devices/platform/eeepc/bt" is created, and writing 0 or 1 will
disable/enable it.  (Devices that lack on-board bluetooth should not see
this file.)

2008-09-20 Thread Adam McDaniel
Earlier, Intrepid used Alsa v1.0.16.  Now, Intrepid uses Alsa v1.0.17.
Intrepid's alsa-kernel code does have support for the EeePC 901, However 
support for the 1000 is not yet included.

According to git://git.alsa-project.org/alsa-kmirror.git this is provided by 
commit:
231d8534cf252135646b47e45e2149285b3df0ea :  ALSA: hda - Add support of Quanta 
FL1

n.b.: commit 231d853 provided support for the Quanta FL1, however the
author bundled the EeePC 1000 device/vendor id check in there too,
subsequently treating it like a 901... Technically, only two lines of
this commit need to be patched.

So, If someone wanted to support the 1000 on v1.0.17, then they'd need
to import commit 231d853, *OR* just this chunk (see attached).

If Alsa v1.0.18 (or this patch) does not make it into Intrepid, then at
worst the 1000 will not have Internal Microphone support, nor will the
speakers/headphones mute/unmute properly. Everything else on the 1000
should work with v1.0.17.

I believe you have to blacklist ath_pci first, then reboot.

Both ath_pci and ath5k are being auto-loaded on bootup because both

I've just found something odd...

After setting the power_save parameter to "10", there is no output from
the soundcard after 10 idle seconds.

I actually have to run "sudo alsa force-reload" before I get any sound
again. (Ofcourse, the process repeats itself because I have "options
snd_hda_intel power_save=10" in modprobe.d.)

I've yet to upgrade my EeePC 900 to Intrepid, so I don't know if this has been 
fixed in upstream alsa yet or not.
Can anyone else confirm this in hardy? .. If not, I'll upgrade this weekend and

2008-09-10 Thread Adam McDaniel
Confirmed, Sitsofe ;)

I upgraded to 0802 and I can now reach C3 state with ease, regardless of
snd_hda_intel's status.

Also, the device powers off cleanly after setting
"/sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/power_save" to "10" Neat!

Rather than running sysctl on bootup each time to set these parameters,
I've created a general modprobe.d file that does the same thing. (It
also loads the 700-series specific parameter when needed, which was
another hack I've previously worked on)


/etc/modprobe.d/eeepc:

install snd_hda_intel \
if [ `/usr/sbin/dmidecode -s system-product-name` = "700" ]; then \
/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd_hda_intel model=3stack-dig 
$CMDLINE_OPTS ; \
else \
/sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd_hda_intel $CMDLINE_OPTS; \

[Bug 126140] Re: snd_hda_intel fails to unload (or unload correctly) on shut down; laptop fails to halt

2008-09-10 Thread Adam McDaniel
Good carch. My 900 is running BIOS 0601.

I wonder if there's a difference in the sound card model too?
Attached is my "sudo lspci -v -nn".   Note the system/vendor ID for the Audio 
card: [8086:2668]

[Bug 126140] Re: snd_hda_intel fails to unload (or unload correctly) on shut down; laptop fails to halt

2008-09-09 Thread Adam McDaniel
@Sitsofe ... I just double checked. My 900 never reaches C3 with these
power settings after playing sound. Are you running Intrepid?   .. I
cannot remember, has Intrepid upgraded to alsa 1.0.17?

If so, I know that snd_hda_intel's patch_realtek.c code has changed in
this version. The EeePC's 901/1000/1000h models for example no longer
have a shutdown issue (in my experience) under 1.0.17 as they did under
hardy's 1.0.16.

I haven't upgraded my EeePC 900 to Intrepid quite yet. (Still validating
some other legacy issues under hardy.) Perhaps I'll do that and double
check these results.

[Bug 126140] Re: snd_hda_intel fails to unload (or unload correctly) on shut down; laptop fails to halt

2008-09-08 Thread Adam McDaniel
Tested on EeePC 900 (Realtek ALC62 rev1) using Hardy (Alsa 1.0.16) with
the powersaving technique quoted by Sitsofe.

This is still a problem. The device will not shutdown if snd_hda_intel
is still loaded.

Interesting side note #1: A known issue with snd_hda_intel is that the
CPU never reaches C3 state while this module is loaded, according to
powertop. Even after setting the power_save parameter, it never makes it
there.

Interesting side note #2: Forcing the module to reload with "sudo alsa
force-reload" will allow the CPU to move into C3, but playing anything
out out of the soundcard keeps something active in the module as the C3
state is no longer attainable.

So, what's my point? :) ... If the CPU is able to reach C3 state with
snd_hda_intel loaded, the device can power-off properly without manually
unloading the module.

[Bug 210725] Re: Please include RaLink RT2860 driver

2008-09-08 Thread Adam McDaniel
There is a known issue where rt2860 does not support both WEP and WPA in
a single compiled module. (There is a config option to enable one or the
other, but not both, for some dumb reason.)

Asus has released a patch to one blogger who complained about this, but
AFAIK it's not on any Xandros repositories yet. See:
http://www.itwriting.com/blog/778-fixing-wi-fi-on-asus-eee-pc-901-with-
linux.html

I had a look at Eric's repository that you just posted, Giovanni. This WEP/WPA 
patch is not yet included.
I can post a comment to let him know about it.

(The Asus patch provides the config option EEEPC_SPECIAL_SETTING. Not a
very intuitive name :)

2008-09-02 Thread Adam McDaniel
An "apt-get update" is not sufficient to solve this problem. There is a 
corruption in the cached package details delivered by the Live CD.

This problem can be resolved by deleting all files from the following 
directories:

/var/lib/apt/lists
/var/lib/apt/lists/partial

(remember to keep the 'parital' directory itself intact)

This change should be made to the Live CD for RC2. The fix itself can also
be applied to any installed copy of RC1

2008-08-20 Thread Adam McDaniel
The "Capture" channel may not be properly set.

Have a look at this post:
http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=347484#p347484

(BTW, since you're running 2.6.24-21-eeepc, check which version of
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-21-eeepc is installed. The latest is
2.6.24-21.30eeepc3, and its snd_hda_intel.ko module already has this
patch. Likely, the capture mixer setting was the only thing that needed
to be set:)

2008-08-20 Thread Adam McDaniel
Once you've compiled your patched alsa modules, you only need to replace 
snd_hda_intel.ko
You can probably get away with replacing the version under  
/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ubuntu/sound/alsa-driver/pci/hda/snd_hda_intel.ko with 
the new version.

Once applied, you can probably get away with 'sudo alsa force-reload',
however I found rebooting was safer.

You'll know that it worked if you now see a 'Front Mic' and 'Front Mic Boost' 
as available mixer channels.
Also, you should also see 'Headphone' as a variable output channel.

[Bug 232173] Re: EeePC internal microphone does not function out-of-the-box with Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

2008-08-13 Thread Adam McDaniel
>From what I've found, the EeePC 901/1000/1000h devices also have a
similar problem with the internal microphone.

As of Alsa 1.0.17, the 900's internal mic has been fixed but the
901/1000/1000h's internal mic is still a problem.

These later devices were fixed in alsa-kmirror.git: commit 
df5d08005f3b78dab8aef45fa5e2ca9f8b52220f
posted after the v1.0.17 tag. Presumably, these will be fixed in Alsa 1.0.18

This, as far as eeeuser.com user quickfire was able to determine, was

was missing from ubuntu's linux-ubuntu-modules package.

Success! .. I backported drivers/bluetooth/bcm203x.c from 2.6.20 to
2.6.18 and recompiled the module within the 2.6.20 source. My BT-120
device is back online in fiesty!

I'll attach a diff here of what I did, it's very straight forward.

I still need to test to see if 2.6.21-rc2 or later already addresses
this issue.

Unfortunately, due to a lack of kernel hacking experience, I'm not sure
if I can actually debug Marcel Holtmann's original check-in so that it
properly loads the firmware using the correct "work queue" way :)

2007-03-29 Thread Adam McDaniel
I've had this same problem for a couple weeks now. After a little
digging I believe that the likely culprit was introduced in 2.6.19. From
that kernel's changelog:

> commit 3f5306927d800306ebba542438cfdf1a1c418376

>Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann

Right now I'm trying to build 2.6.20 without this specific check-in to
see if this fixes things. FWIW, there appears to be another "bluetooth
firmware" check-in, to 2.6.21-rc2, which may already fix the issue. I'll
test that out next :)
