Thank you Gustin :)

I was thinking of this myself, but OTOH, I wasn't able to build the
nvidia driver/modules for current real-time kernels.

Btw. the update failed. I'll restore Maverick from the backup archive. I
guess it's because  of dirty tricks to get the Envy24 work, an
pulseaudio issue.

Re: Version update from 10.10 to 11.04 - Is it better to re-build the kernel-rt?

2011-05-04 Thread Gustin Johnson 
At the very least you should recompile the kernel as the version of
GCC changes with each release.  This can cause issues if you need to
compile a module against your kernel or if you use binary driver
blobs.

No idea about the rest.

Version update from 10.10 to 11.04 - Is it better to re-build the kernel-rt?

2011-05-04 Thread Ralf 
After a version upgrade, would it be better to re-build the kernel-rt or
is using the kernels I build with Maverick ok? What's about a self-build
jackd from svn etc.?

Hm? 495 new packages? Order of packages isn't sorted by the alphabet,
hence it's hard to check for issues. The proprietary nvidia driver is
removed, so I expect Ubuntu not to startup (kernel-generic) after the
update, regarding to:

$ cat /etc/rcS.d/S69*
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/rcS.d/Switch_xorg_conf

rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
case $(uname -r) in

cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Hi Gerhard :)

kernel 2.6.31.6-rt19 + the proprietary nvidia driver is ok for my Suse
11.2 install and my GeForce 7200 GS (GeForce 7300 SE). I could test this
kernel-rt, if needed.
I don't categorically need the proprietary driver for Ubuntu Studio too,
but I wish to have the monitor's resolution settings for any WM and the
GDM login menu, a problem that should be independent from the used
driver.

I'm wary of non-kernels-rt, because I fear worsening MIDI jitter for PCI
MIDI. I get best results for my 2 Envy24 PCI MIDI devices and even for
my USB MIDI device, when running alsa-midi-latency-test, but I'm used to
hard real-time by the C64 and Atari ST + SMPTE sync to analog tape and
not fine with so called 'less' MIDI jitter by Linux. When using HPET
(HRTIMER) it might be, that it could be able to fix this, but only if I
can keep the audio latency as short as possible, because there is a
correlation between audio recordings of external MIDI equipment and MIDI
jitter.

I never compared just PREEMPT and PREEMPT RT.

At http://www.rncbc.org/jack/ Rui's version of rtirq still is
rtirq-20090920.tar.gz , should be equal to 20090920-0ubuntu1. I never
noticed any different between rtirq installed and customized and not
being installed or not being customized.

Thank you, I had issues regarding to the graphics with kernels-rt ex
2.6.31.6-rt19, but can't remember of what kind exactly.

Cheers!

Ralf

Re: Kernel-rt issues solved, but configuring X still is a PITA

2010-12-27 Thread Gerhard Lang 
Hi Ralf,
nvidia prop drivers for your card never will  build with new 
rt-kernels.  I see you compile customized kernels. I'd recommend trying 
2.3.36.xxx and even 2.6.37-rcxx with preempt settings. They run here on 
a geriatric amd64x2 machine under lucid (10.04) ubuntustudio/kx mashing  
with proprietary nvidia drivers, full rt support. Only missing against 
rt-kernels is the possibility to adjust rtirq settings which as I see 
*possibly* *might*  give *a* *little* benefit *only* for ffado/firewire 
devices. Nevertheless I hope someone will implemet this rtirq tweaking 
stuff into mainline kernels.

Kernel-rt issues solved, but configuring X still is a PITA

2010-12-27 Thread Ralf 
Hi :)

I build a kernel-rt for an upgraded Ubuntu Studio 10.04 Lucid, testing a
knack still to get an initrd, when building it by make-kpkg. This mail
is on HTML to enable copy and paste.

SOLVED

I now can build an initrd for self build kernels.
I now can start a kernel-rt from the repositories.

NEW AND UNSOLVED ISSUE

The monitor resolution for the GDM login menu is 'broken'.

### Preparing to build the kernel

$ cd /usr/src
$ ls linux -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 spinymouse src 19 2010-10-03 02:39 linux ->
linux-2.6.33.7-rt29
$ rm linux
$ ln -s linux-2.6.33.7.2-rt30 linux
$ wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30.bz2


### Extracting the sources and patching the kernel

$ tar xjf linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
$ rm linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
$ mv linux-2.6.33.7 linux-2.6.33.7.2-rt30
$ cd linux
$ bunzip2 ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30.bz2
$ patch -p1 < ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30
$ rm ../patch-2.6.33.7.2-rt30


### Editing a configuration

$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-27-preempt #49-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Thu Dec 2 03:21:34
UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config
$ make oldconfig
Pushing enter only.


### Disabling staging, without testing if it's needed to to disable it
for building the current kernel

$ gedit .config
Editing
CONFIG_STAGING=y
to
# CONFIG_STAGING is not set
$ make oldconfig
Nothing to do.


### Building the kernel

$ make-kpkg clean
$ export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2
$ make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers
kernel-source


### Unfortunately there wasn't enough free disk space when I first build
the kernel.

OT: Btw. is there a list of apps that can be removed from Ubuntu Studio,
without getting issues? I e.g. don't need AppAmor, Firewalls etc. and
especially I would like to get rid of PulseAudio. [End OT]


### After removing some old kernel stuff and the already new build image
and headers, I build the kernel again, but I guess it would have been
ok, if I just would have installed the image and headers, because only
the unneeded source was missing. I also think,  that not running
'make-kpkg clean' again, would have made the repeated compiling faster,
but I dunno.

### The knack

$ sudo update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.33.7.2-rt30

FWIW it took 77 minutes + less but 48 seconds on my machine to compile
the kernel and 5.45 GiB to build and install  the kernel + initrd.

It's needed to add the initrd line to /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Startup
stopped, when I tried 'sudo startx' in tty1 I got 'Module nouveau not

$ sudo cp /media/studio3.0/etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Additionally I needed to set up the monitor preferences by the GUI to

not für the GDM login menu. For 64 Studio 3.0 Hardy it&#x

Yes, no trouble, as soon as the files have been finish to be prepared 
;-) In few days...I'm close.

For my demo, I wish not to take with me my laptop Asus with 4 Go and ati 
radeon, PIV dual core... but more funny, my netbook, asus 900.

I've tested it since an hour with alessio 2.6.33-29 RT pae, the computer 
have a celeron 900 MHz, mono-core, 1 Go of ram, a integrated sound card 
intel, video graphic card intel.

With a latency of 11,6 ms, i'm running jackd, hydrogen, vlc, jackeq, 
jackrack, ardour in a live demo together without any x-runs !!!

Alessio's 2.6.33-29 RT is to my mind the best ever build RT kernel in 
Ubuntu studio...and in Lucid, it's a marvellous association...

I know now many people who are going to be suprised that a so small and 
old computer could do !!!

As i'm able to edit video with it, with kino, openshot, kdenlive, 
cinelerra in pretty good condition in DV resolution and short demo in 
HD720 !!!

next is coming,

congratulation Alessio for your work :-D

Hi Alessio. That's debugging... I've restored my system with deselecting fglrx,
the system repair alone the xorg.conf with the 2D ati free driver.

When i need the 3D ati driver, i install again the lucid-update one.

I've tested the 2.6.33 RT a lot with hydrogen, zynaddsubfx, vlc and several
others music software, no crash, no x-runs with my "little" integrated via sound
card with a 11.6 ms latency...

I'm gonna make a complete demo of Ubuntu Studio possibility to the public, in
Toulouse, France, next 20 of november.

kernel RT 2.6.33 and last fglrx update

2010-11-05 Thread laurent.bellegarde 
Hi all,

Under lucid amd 64, kernel 2.6.33 RT from Alessio ppa, the last fglrx 
update coming from ppa and named 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu6 ppa1 is unable to 
boot properly, with, a large crash of X, the screen is black and nothing 
is impossible to do, even getting a terminal on tty2...so hard reboot

the fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu5 (lucid updates) and 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3 
(lucid) were working perfectly with this kernel.

I don't recall when make-kpkg started to create problems but you can
notice that neither Ubuntu Kernel Team Wiki
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/) nor Ubuntu kernel packaging
contains any reference to make-kpkg. Moreover the package which
contains that utility (that is kernel-package) is in universe so that
should be an evident sign.

Feel free to use what do you want but keep in mind that isn't the
official Ubuntu way to build a kernel (so it is unsupported).

Hello Alessio,

As of which release? I've built several kernels with make-kpkg for 9.04
and 9.10 (to include dsdt tables for my netbook). Haven't tried with
10.04 though.

I did read all emails and will reply later this day or tomorrow, the flu
I've got is a PITA, I can't stay long on the computer ;).

But this is very important. 'make-kpkg' did build:

spinymouse1...@suse11-2:~> ls /media/ubuntu_studio/usr/src/linux*
/media/ubuntu_studio/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.33.7-rt29_2.6.33.7-rt29-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
/media/ubuntu_studio/usr/src/linux-image-2.6.33.7-rt29_2.6.33.7-rt29-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
/media/ubuntu_studio/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.33.7-rt29_2.6.33.7-rt29-10.00.Custom_all.deb

It's just that initrd isn't included to
linux-image-2.6.33.7-rt29_2.6.33.7-rt29-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb.

How should a kernel be build for Ubuntu today?

Cheers!

Ralf

Jeremy, I did compile with make-kpkg for Hardy 8.04, resp. 64 Studio 3.0
- beta, based on Hardy and it did work.

If you should have got the time to do it, would you please try to test,
if there won't be an initrd for you too, building on Lucid or later
version of Ubuntu?

Copy and paste should be ok, if you allow HTML for received messages ;).

wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/patch-2.6.33.7-rt29.bz2
tar xvjf linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
mv linux-2.6.33.7 linux-2.6.33.7-rt29
ln -s linux-2.6.33.7-rt29 linux
cd linux
mv ../patch-2.6.33.7-rt29.bz2 ../linux
bunzip2 patch-2.6.33.7-rt29.bz2
patch -p1 < patch-2.6.33.7-rt29

If uname -r is 2.6.32-25-preempt, than ...
cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config
make oldconfig
... should need to push enter all the times only.

I guess it's needed to disable staging on any machine, so ...
gedit .config
Editing
CONFIG_STAGING=y
to
# CONFIG_STAGING is not set
... and then
make oldconfig
There should be nothing to do when running make oldconfig.

make-kpkg clean
make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers
kernel-source

or perhaps

fakeroot first.

As the day progresses I'll copy an xorg.conf from one of my 64 Studio
installs and try to boot a real-time kernel from the repositories again.

I think it happens in the KXStudio setup wizard on first boot.  There is a 
dialog to install extra software, including a lowlatency kernel and realtime 
kernel.  After instal this menu can be found by going to the menu, system 
settings, and open KXStudio Settings.  On the 'Additional Software' tab you 
can check boxes to install the audio geared kernel. :)

I've seen no option to choose a kernel for live usage of
KXStudio_10.04.2-LiveDVD_64bit.
The default kernel is a generic kernel.

Hi Mike,

downloading KXstudio is started. The ATI graphics on Linux is a PITA,
that's why I switched to the NVidia card and I don't wish to switch back
again. For the ATI I never got 3D support working on Linux, for the
NVidia it depends to the used Linux, but even if I don't need 3D, since
some years X is PITA regarding to set up frequencies and resolution for
the monitors I used, resp. for the one I'm using now. For each Linux
install I need to set up X by trial and error.

Anyway, searching the web, I didn't find any information about the
reason, that I don't get an initrd when building a kernel.
Doing it the way I tried to do it for Ubuntu Studio does work for 64
Studio Hardy. I wonder what's different for Ubuntu Studio Lucid.

Maybe I'll switch to Arch or Gentoo, because Ubuntu and Suse become more
and more inscrutable for me.

*waiting for the download, still 16 minutes to wait*

Re: Missing initrd when building a kernel-rt

2010-10-03 Thread Mike Holstein 
ralf, if it is a simple procedure to enable the ATI graphics chip, i think
that would be a helpful troubleshooting step... as far as i know, in this
PPA https://launchpad.net/~falk-t-j/+archive/lucid , falktx has patched
abogani's realtime kernel with the patches necessary to utilize the
proprietary nvidia drivers... i use the PPA purge feature in ubuntutweak
when testing a PPA with so many different packages in it... another easy
trouble-shooting step would be to download KXstudio, run it live, and see if
you can get to the desktop, and see if you can boot the -realtime kernel,
see what graphics driver is being used, and what kernel version...

Missing initrd when building a kernel-rt

2010-10-02 Thread Ralf 
Hi all :)

building a kernel-rt failed. This are the steps I did:

### Downloading the kernel sources
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src$ wget
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/patch-2.6.33.7-rt29.bz2

### Extracting the sources and patching the kernel
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src$ tar xvjf linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src$ rm linux-2.6.33.7.tar.bz2
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src$ mv linux-2.6.33.7 linux-2.6.33.7-rt29

spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ patch -p1 < patch-2.6.33.7-rt29
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ rm patch-2.6.33.7-rt29

### Editing a configuration
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ uname -r
2.6.32-25-preempt
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ make oldconfig
Pushing enter only.

### Disable staging
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ gedit .config
Editing
CONFIG_STAGING=y
to
# CONFIG_STAGING is not set

spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ make oldconfig
Nothing to do.

### Tidying up
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ make-kpkg clean

### Building the kernel
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2
spinymo...@ubuntu:/usr/src/linux$ make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd

What could be the reason that I don't get an initrd?

Re: kernel-rt crashes with Java

2009-05-11 Thread Joan Quintana 

My way to install JDK is:

$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre (already installed)
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
$ export PATH="$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin"
$ export JRE_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre

$ java -version
is fine

$ javac -version
hangs my computer

I used to install JDK (the same way) in UStudio 8.04, and everything was fine. 
I never tested UStudio 8.10. Something happened with rt-kernel in this 
timeline...

Something similar was reported in Launchpad: "Kernel 2.6.28-3.12-rt crashes 
when running Sun Java real-time system"

https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-rt/+question/69434

Thanks,
Joan Quintana

Ok, so I have a clean install of UbuntuStudio running the RT kernel.

Is there an easy way that I can test this?Like, do i have to compile, or can
I just run a java app? 'cause I'm pretty sure I've run java webapps before,
w/o any problems...

kernel-rt crashes with Java

2009-05-11 Thread Joan Quintana 

Working on my problem, I see that the problem is not related with Ubuntu 
Studio, just the rt kernel.
I make a clean install of Jaunty Desktop, and I can compile HelloWorld.java. I 
install a kernel-rt, and javac HelloWorld.java crashes my system. If I boot now 
with my generic kernel, everything is OK.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Joan Quintana

Have you reported this issue to Launchpad.net?  This list is full of users
of the software, whereas launchpad is looked at by the guys who developed
the kernel.  I haven't experienced the same behaviour you describe, so it
could be the combination of drivers you have running.

kernel-rt solution

2009-04-30 Thread Loop Dundee 
Hi there,

the new Jaunty-9.04 is out. Fine, but where is the solution for the
current kernel-rt? Is there any plan or hint, how can i stop the
constant running cpu? Many friends of studioubuntu had send there
problems with RT to this list, but.. no answer.

The cpu runs nonstop at round +- 10%, therefore the fans working with a
lot of noise and never stops.

In the moment, it is not possible to run Jaunty as a stable
audio-workstation. Seq24 crashes directly and a lot of other sound
software has problems with the current mishmash soundsystem, especially
pulse. :/

There is no real difference between beta and official release.

I think about to go back to my working hardy-64-lts.

Is there anybody that has a solution?

Kernel-rt

2009-04-08 Thread Loop Dundee 
Hi there,

today I have made some experience with the actual kernel-rt on my
notebook hd-dv6000, intel, ICH8. (ubuntu-9-04-beta).

Like the other tests with the kernel-rt, the acpi-subsystem can not
control the fanspeed. The fancontrol doesnt't work. The rest works nice,
also the shutdown works now correct. And certainly the sound.

The generic kernel works very fine and makes a stable system impression.

i've installed this package, done the command again, here is the terminal :

laur...@laurent-laptop:~$ sudo dkms -k 2.6.28-3-rt build  -m fglrx -v 8.600
[sudo] password for laurent:

Error! This module/version has already been built on: 2.6.28-3-rt
Directory: /var/lib/dkms/fglrx/8.600/2.6.28-3-rt/i686
already exists.  Use the dkms remove function before trying to build again.

a new boot with fglrx activated done the same trouble with X.

So a get a new boot under generic kernel, desactivate flgrx driver, free 
radeon driver has been activated, then a reboot on rt-kernel.

I've get a usable desktop. video resolution is ok, refreshing rate seems 
to be ok too. I didn't test acceleration and 3D effects, but under fglrx 
there is many trouble with compiz activated, so i'm waiting.

the loaded kernel was an rt one, as the command tell it :

laur...@laurent-laptop:~$ uname -a
Linux laurent-laptop 2.6.28-3-rt #9-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT Fri Mar 27 
23:23:50 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

so, i load qjackctl and try rt with my two sound card.

- if i have rt on with internal sound card (bad one) hw0 -> jackd crash
- if i have rt on with external sound card USB (good one) hw1 -> jackd crash

and said this :

for memory, hw1 is working fine under hardy studio 8.04 64 bits RT with 
64 frames/periode and 2,6ms for latency, hw0 is working but with few xruns.

i've done the same test, but without checking the rt checkbox in qjackctl.

same result for hw1 on usb, the sound card never work...and the 
frame/period change nothing.
for hw0, a surprising result, with 512 frame/periode, 26,3ms for latency 
(so a bad one), the card is working not too bas, with few xruns. I've 
tried at 256 frames/periodes with ardour reading a wav file, and 
hydrogen playing a drumkit, recorded in ardour, it's working with few 
xruns. below 256, too many xruns.

for conclusion, the internal sound card is working a little bit better 
than in hardy studio rt, but the usb one is not working at all.

Bye

Ok, you need to install linux-headers-2.6.28-3-rt, and then run the command I 
gave you again.

Hmm, you've used the --kernelsourcedir flag, but you haven't specified the
source directory of the kernel.  Please try that again with the source
directory listed directly after that flag.

Also, have you tried without fglrx?  I've found that Jaunty's improvements
on xserver-xorg-video-radeon are working better than fglrx had ever worked
for me - and I get to support open software at the same time!

So after booting under 2.6.28-11-generic, i've look to theses packages, 
they are installed already.

i've tried your command

laur...@laurent-laptop:~$ sudo dkms -k 2.6.28-3-rt build  -m fglrx -v 8.600
[sudo] password for laurent:

Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.28-3-rt cannot be found at
/lib/modules/2.6.28-3-rt/build or /lib/modules/2.6.28-3-rt/source.
You can use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located.
laur...@laurent-laptop:~$ sudo dkms --kernelsourcedir build  -m fglrx -v 
8.600
laur...@laurent-laptop:~$

and then i reboot on RT-kernel, but same end, X crash and nothing work.

Bye.

To be sure the module has been built, make sure you have the 
fgrlx-kernel-source and xorg-driver-fglrx packages installed, and run this 
command to ensure the module is built for RT: sudo dkms -k 2.6.28-3-rt build  
-m fglrx -v 8.600

Then try booting the RT kernel.

Hi luke,

this package was not installed, so i do it. I've restarted with 
rt-kernel after this install, but at the end, same conclusion, rt kernel 
still unable to work with ati graphic card, X is out of order.

The RT patches for the fgrlx drivers should be in the archive now, and ready to 
use. Make sure you have the linux-headers-rt package installed to ensure the 
drivers build.

This is most likely the result of the rt patches not being in the ATI
driver package yet. It should be very soon. Luke can correct me if I'm
incorrect.

jaunty beta + kernel RT

2009-04-01 Thread laurent.bellegarde 
Hi everyone,

on my laptop, dual core intel 64 bits, ATI radeom HD 3470 i'm working 
fine with hardy studio 8.04 64bits.

As I was having too an intrepid 32 bits to test kdenlive 0.7, I've 
upgraded tonight to jaunty beta.

so now, under generic kernel, ATI flgrx is ok, audio is ok, but my 
internal soundcard is not enough good to test jackd/ardour

I've install jaunty rt kernel, install is ok, i've restarted on rt 
jaunty kernel, 2.6.28-3-rt, the boot is ok, and when it starts X to 
display  gdm, the image gone bad, nothing is available. I've tried to go 
to terminal with a CTRL + ALT + F2, and the screen gone bad with full of 
colored squares !!! Nothing was working. So it seems that the jaunty rt 
kernel is out of working at this time.

Hope it helps.

Laurent
