** Description changed: - Binary package hint: linux-generic - - The 2.6.31 kernel will give the message at boot time, 'i8042.c - Controller Not Found'. - - I noticed this behavior on the 2.6.31 kernel on several distros where I - compiled this kernel from source, now it also appears on the Karmic - linux-generic 2.6.31 kernel as well. This does not happen on 2.6.30.x - - I'm running a 13" Macbook Pro 5.5, this is the only computer I'm using - at the moment so I am not aware if this message appears on other - computers. - - The problem is, after grub loads Ubuntu is suppose to get the logo - splash screen loading and people are not suppose to see the console, but - with this message it will show the console for a few seconds after the - grub menu then the Ubuntu logo splash will appear. - - The point I'm trying to make is, even though the message may be - legitimate, can the Ubuntu Dev Team just silence messages at boot time - after the grub menu so the only thing we are going to see next is the - Ubuntu logo loading? - - After all if we are concerned about boot up messages we can simply look - them up in /var/log rather then having them spit out in the console at - boot time, but at least let them run in the console in the background - BEHIND the bootup logo that's suppose to appear and cover them. - - I believe that is what the purpose of the boot up logo is, so users - don't get the console at boot up, especially geared toward newbies to - give them a cleaner interface at boot time, rather then worrying the - end-user about things they now nothing about or care to know about. - - Since I believe the purpose of the boot up splash/logo is to give a - cleaner looking boot up, besides the 'i8042.c Controller Not Found' - message I am getting, I've noticed also at times when things aren't - supported by the hardware they are getting spit out onto the console - first afte the grub menu then the boot splash/logo appears. - - Of course as we know not everything in the kernel will be supported on - every computer, but for driver/mods that aren't then we shouldn't be - getting error messages by passing the intents of the developers to go - from the Grub menu to the boot up logo, but these things are, they are - causing the console to still show a message first then the boot logo. - - THANKS - - ProblemType: Bug - Architecture: amd64 - ArecordDevices: - **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** - card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: Cirrus Analog [Cirrus Analog] - Subdevices: 1/1 - Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 - AudioDevicesInUse: - USER PID ACCESS COMMAND - /dev/snd/controlC0: sar 2001 F.... pulseaudio - CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory - Card0.Amixer.info: - Card hw:0 'NVidia'/'HDA NVidia at 0x93480000 irq 22' - Mixer name : 'Cirrus Logic CS4206' - Components : 'HDA:10134206,106b4d00,00100301' - Controls : 16 - Simple ctrls : 9 - CurrentDmesg: [ 38.550076] eth1: no IPv6 routers present - Date: Sun Oct 4 13:55:53 2009 - DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 - HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=2229a7b4-0b3e-44c2-8e91-51b4cc52453a - MachineType: Apple Inc.
