For that eCafe machine I had only the 800 x something resolution worked
(without this xorg.conf even that did not work).

But I had the eCafe from a colleague only for two days to fix its setup
... so I can't do experiments now.

[Bug 433142] Re: geode driver do not display 1024x600 on (K)UNR Karmic

2009-11-15 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
If the driver says 'Option "PanelGeometry" is not used' it means that
the hardware is not Geode GX but a Geode LX.

Geode LX has no "PanelGeometry" Option, it uses a "PanelMode" Option
which has to be filled with the ModeLine specified earlier.

This at least applies to an Hercules eCafe EC-800 which I had to setup
today. In this case the panel is only 800x480 and the Xserver stretches
the output to 800x600 without manual fix.

I attach my working xorg.conf, it sets up an 800x480 display, the
commented out parts contain lines which should work for 1200x600.

I'm using Karmic (xserver-xorg-video-geode 2.11.6-1).

[Bug 75295] Re: system freeze while accessing DVD drive

2009-01-03 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
I just want to add here that I could solve this problem on my
TSSTcorpCD/DVDW SN-S082D (in my transtec LEVIO 210M) by crossflashing it
with the SC04 firmware as mentioned above and also at
http://kde.blogsite.org/?q=node/11.

I used a FreeDos image on a CF card sitting in an USB reader to do the
task. The solution at http://kde.blogsite.org/?q=node/11 uses firmware
version SC03, I tried SC04 and it works too.

 The drive identifies itself now as TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-L632D.

Thanks

[Bug 203452] [NEW] small typo preventing gnome-power-manager to be updated

2008-03-18 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acpi-support

A small typo in /usr/share/acpi-support/FUJITSU SIEMENS.config prevents
gnome-power-manager to be updated to 2.22.0-0ubuntu1, obviously its
postinstall script runs into this typo. Maybe because I'm using a
Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook (but not that which is mentioned in the line
with the error, I have a FSC Lifebook P7120).

Fix is attached (use only on ")" in case statement).

Albrecht

This affects acpi-support 0.106 on Ubuntu Hardy, dist-upgraded on March
18 8:30.

[Bug 107945] Re: Security update of libx11-6 causes IDL segfault

2007-04-27 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
I think it is better to just extract the libX11.so.6.2.0 file from the
Debian package
http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2007/03/09/debian/pool/main/libx/libx11/libx11-6_1.0.3-6_i386.deb
mentioned inthe ITT Tech Tip #4177 and add a LD_LIBRARY_PATH
modification pointing to that file for IDL only. That way you don't
cpmpromise your remaining system with that downgraded library.

Get root permissions if necessary and create a directory
/usr/local/rsi/lib. (adopt to other path if your IDL installation
differs).

First extract only the library from the downloaded deb file. Do this in
a convenient way with midnight commander (mc). Inside mc just hit Enter
on the deb file and then examine its content interactively, go to
CONTENTS/usr/lib and copy (via F5) libX11.so.6.2.0 to
/usr/local/rsi/lib/.

Then outside of mc create the following symlink

cd /usr/local/rsi/lib
ln -sf libX11.so.6.2.0 libX11.so.6

Now modify the IDL start script /usr/local/rsi/idl/bin/idl (near line
280) in the following way:

Inside the "linux" section of the architecture dependent "case"
statement add

  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

somewhere before the "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH" statement. Or just use the
attached patch.

Albrecht

but sata_via also needs a patch to recognize VT8251.

no, SATA disks attached to a VT8251 are not beeing detected at all (scsi
timeout from libata) because the VIA code in ahci.c stopped working with
some backported libata stuff. Instead now sata_via.c works for VT8251,
but only without the presence of the VIA modifications in ahci.c

I think you mixed this with some other bug ;-) ?

2006-07-06 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
Please can someone change the status of this bug from "Fix released" to 
something other? The fix that had been released (somewhere in march as 
2.6.15-19.28) stopped working before final dapper release (somewhere at 
2.6.15-21.XX).
 
Instead a new fix is needed, which I posted two messages above in the comment 
history of this bug.

I did not know how to re-open the 33030 bug, which has been marked as
"Fix released" which isn't correct, cause the fix doesn't work anymore

[Bug 50876] Fix for #33030 (VIA VT8251 SATA) needs update

2006-06-24 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
Public bug reported:

The fix for bug 33030 (no SATA support for VIA VT8251), see
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/33030
needs to be redone. 

Reason: the old fix (use the VIA AHCI patch) doesn't work in the final
dapper kernel.

Solution: remove the old patch, use the VIA SATA patch.

I have attached patches with the solution to bug 33030.

[Bug 33030] Re: No SATA support for VIA VT8251 (e.g. on ASUS A8V MX)

2006-06-24 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
the last two patches fix (hopefully) the broken VIA VT8251 SATA support.

Generally the ahci method should work with a 2.6.15 kernel, but it fails
for the dapper kernel, so use sata_via.c instead.

I have no experience with the stability rigth now, I'm using two SATA
disks in a md1 software RAID. No problems so far, after a few hours.

Source of the patches as already mention above:
http://forums.viaarena.com/messageview.aspx?catid=28&threadid=71754&enterthread=y

I hope this can make it into the stable dapper kernel, even three weeks
after release :-)

[Bug 33030] Re: No SATA support for VIA VT8251 (e.g. on ASUS A8V MX)

2006-06-24 Thread Albrecht Gebhardt
It seems that the VIA VT8251 is now better supported through the
sata_via patch (AHCI patch fails with current ubuntu kernels, probably
due to libata backports, see my messages above).

I already had added a VT8251 enabled sata_via.c to my kernel, now I just
removed the ahci.ko kernel module, rebuilt my initrd -- now it works. I
cannot say anything about stability, we'll see.

Currently I'm recompiling my kernel with a "remove-the-via-ahci/add-the-
via-sata-code"-patch. I'll post it here after I have switched to this
new kernel.

yes, but unfortunately in current kernels the patch does not work
anymore, I believe it stopped working somewhere at ubuntu kernel release
20/21 or so when large parts of libata got backported. 

Meanwhile I tried to use the vt8251 patch for kernel 2.6.16, but it also
doesn't work. Until now I had no time to check the 2.6.17 version of the
patch. It would help to know from where the libata backport in the 20 or
21 release came, 2.6.16 or 2.6.17 (if the problem is related to that at
all).

This page lists the current situation for vt8251 and various kernel
releases:
