Can somebody confirm/infirm this? Tests have been ran on a PowerBook5,2. I have added this info on the /GUI wiki page. as you don't provide many details , i can only suggest to boot in NEWT, add disable-module=linux_input to /etc/directfbrc and then try going graphical. If the crash still persists, try adding also no-hardware to directfbrc (it may be bug #342053) I have started the G-I previousely on this hardware (remember the missing cyrillic fonts issue), but I think the issue I am hitting is #372773. I knew about the input issue yesteday, but I didn't knew the exact needed changes that were needed. As my i-net connection was not working, I wasn't able to test with this modification as I didn't knew the needed modification. Today I wrote this and will try again this evening. ok, let me know if it works Is it enough for me to add the line disable-module=linux_input in /etc/directfb in the D-I environment and restart the debconf interface (via GTK) or do i need a rebuilt rootskel-gtk udeb? adding line(s) is enough: directfbrc is parsed everytime a DFB-based application, like the graphical frontend, is started The fix given in #372773 is working for me, too. This seems weird, the G-I daily worked fine for me around the 18th of May. Is this due to directfb 0.9.24? I tried with the known trick: - boot with install DEBIAN_FRONTEND=newt - switch to VT2, export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=gtk - run debian-installer (now after adding the line disable-module=linux_input in /etc/directfbrc) uhm.. afaik daily images are still built with DFB 0.9.21: migration to DFB 0.9.24, GTKDFB 2.8.17 and cairodfb 1.1.6/8 has to happen all at once. ciao Attilio

Problem: During the installation of the packages (from IDE DVD-ROM) I get a hdb: DSC Timeout (almost) every time. AFAIK a DSC timeout is a non-fatal condition. But after it my system gets stuck in a cdrom access - DMA timeout - ATAPI reset loop and nothing responds anymore. It's strange that the problem only occurs during the package installation phase. The base install works everytime (I tried approximately 6 installations) and I can even mount the whole CD manually and copy the content into a directoy on the harddisk (BTW: that's why I'm sure that the CD has no errors). I think a specific access pattern during package install triggers the failure. Workaround: before the installation of the packages invoke a shell and disable the dsc_overlap feature: echo dsc_overlap:0/proc/ide/ide0/hdb/settings Proposed solution: AFAIK dsc_overlap is an advanced feature that was used before only with SCSI devices (disconnection). Obviously my 5 years old hardware has troubles with it. My suggestion is to disable dsc_overlap for old hardware or even for all hardware - at least during installation.

On my current system with a PCChips M599LMR motherboard, the install succeeded, but on reboot my cd-rw didn't work. modprobe ide-generic fixed that, and further investigation revealed that the module loaded by default (sis5513) has no effect. This means that even though the board is detected sis5513 the module required the ide parts of the system to work is ide-generic.

I patiently waited the 10 days for that version of libdiscover to enter sarge and fall into the daily builds, but had to go away for some time. Now I have tested the current status and apparently this was not the complete solution because some problems persist. In short: If I boot the 2.4 kernel, the SATA drive is recognized as an ide drive. I have not tested to continue the install from there. If I boot the 2.6 kernel, the SATA drive is not recognized automatically. If I modprobe the ata_piix module (which automatically puts in libata, sd_mod is already loaded I think) before going into partitioning the SATA disc is correctly recognized in the partitioning menu as a SCSI device. Continuing the install from there goes fine. Installing lilo failed for some reason I did not understand. Installing grub went ok, and at first boot the list of available boot kernels was showed ok. However, grub complained that the disk was not found when trying to actually load the 2.6 kernel I had installed.

The following may be familiar to you. Whenever I have attempted to install, I get this error message: The integrity check for FOO failed. It is most likely corrupt. Aborting. After that, I can reboot and get back to my old system. where FOO varies from one attempted install to the next, sometimes base-installer, or baseconfig-udeb, or bterm-unifont. To check the integrity of the CD that I burned, I ran dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/copy-of-sarge-i386-netinst.iso and checked to see if the MD5SUM of copy-of-sarge-i386-netinst.iso matched that of the original sarge-i386-netinst.iso that I burned to the CD. It did. I also made sure that the diff command reported no difference between copy-of-sarge-i386-netinst.iso and sarge-i386-netinst.iso. End of the deja vu, now for the new stuff. Once I saw the error message, I switched to another virtual terminal and ran dmesg | grep hdb. One of the lines read hdb: ATAPI 6x CD-ROM drive, 256kB Cache, DMA ^^^ This explains everything. I know from experience that a good way to read garbage from my CD-ROM is to try to access it via DMA. (That is a good way to read garbage from most older ATAPI devices, as I'm sure you know. ) I bet that what's going on is that when udebs are read from the CD-ROM, sooner or later, one of them is read wrong, which is probably why the integrity check fails. What's really wrong with this picture is that passing the standard-issue kernel option ide=nodma doesn't work. dmesg | grep hdb still reports the same thing. This is not good. (Yes, at the boot prompt, I type linux ide=nodma, not just ide=nodma.) A good question is why DMA is enabled for ATAPI devices at all, since Debian is supposed to be installable on older hardware, which is where DMA problems tend to crop up. __ Do you Yahoo!?

partman-auto: swap on an LVM logical volume?
Currently none of the partman-auto-lvm recipies allows swap to be placed
on a lvm volume by not setting the $lvmok{ } flag for it.
I'm wondering what the reasons are for this?
In general it should be beneficial to have as many partitions as possible
on LVM (e.g. to allow one to reallocate space between the different LV's),
and there are no reasons why swap wouldn't work via LVM as far as I
know...

I'm guessing you meant this thread:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2005/10/msg01082.html
One major reason seems to be to allow resume swap after suspend-to-disk.
Using initramfs-tools, I resume from a swap-on-lvm partition daily.
I think there were other reasons.
The reasons I could find in the above mentioned thread were:
suspend: not a problem
lowmem: if you're not able to have swap on lvm due to lowmem,
are you really able to have root on lvm?
overhead: do we have any proof at all for this claim?
harddrive transfer rates should be the bottleneck, not the
(theoretical) lvm overhead.

And I forgot to mention, that the reason that I'm asking is that
swap-on-lvm as the default would make it much easier to write a
partman-auto-crypto package (which I'm working on right now).

I have in the past few weeks made every effort to be nice to Frans, both on irc, and in mailing list, the only exception that could be considered as anything but nice would be the post i made earlier this week, but even that is mild at best. But it is clear that frans is not going to take this effort into account, and at two times this pasts weeks on irc he showed strong absence of will to come to a positive and constructive solution. I don't think that the solution that aj had in mind was that i demostrated myself to be meak and submissive, and thus begged for the commit to be activated again, while the other side persists in his superior attitude and is not even able to recognize his part of the fault, but this is clearly happening, which you can all see on the attached log, of which the most important quote is : 19:13 +fjp svenl: If you put me in a bad mood, you'll never get commit access back. Think about that. I cannot in these conditions continue to make efforts to be nice and all, and seriously, this is over-ridiculous, and in no way in any way related to any kind of offense i may or not have done. I was not the only guilty party back then, and fjp and others also misbehaved. Also, given the way i am threated and handled on irc channels and mailing lists, being threated as an idiot, and someone to be the laughing stock of half of debian, i think that there are very little folk who have the moral right to feel offended by what i have said these past weeks, and have very much themselves things to be ashamed about. So, how are we going to continue on this ? It seems clear that Frans is not able to be a judge on this, and is letting his own pride take the decisions, and not seeing the efforts i make and probably never will. So, i want to know now, from the other members of the d-i team, if you agree with frans, and i should leave any d-i work forever, or if there is any chance that this situation can be solved in some not-forever future. I also particularly want our DPLs opinion on this, given that the current state of affair was to lay all blame on me, give all reason to frans, and hope the solution will solve itself in the future, which is becoming clear now didn't work. So, i may have misbehaved in the last few months, but i claim that due to my personal situation i was particularly stressed, which all would agree on i guess, and that i made mistakes, altough i was not the only one in doing so. So, Frans, i apologize to you for whatever i have said which offended you, and i don't expect any apology from you for what you said which has offended me or whatever. Seriously, the situation has no lasted enough, and is at a point where you are losing any justification of continuing in your current course without losing face and becoming ridiculous all of yourself. I think you don't gain anything by it, so let's stop this and be constructive, ok ? Friendly, Sven Luther 18:38 svenl i am helping debug a remote power5 virtual partition install, and the daily-built image i built on tuesday is failing to install di-utils-mapdevfs_1.32_powerpc.udeb 18:38 +fjp joeyh: Your move of calling choose-mirror from apt-setup within mirror-setup generator fucks up the apt-setup progress bar... 18:39 svenl i am a bit at a loss on how to get the logs out of the box to check this. scp is part of the ssh package, and we can use that right ? 18:39 svenl installed with anna, i always forget that syntax. 18:40 +fjp Alphix: Care to commit the patch you sent in yesterday? I'd like to upload that before dinstall tonight. Or do you have doubts about it? 18:40 Alphix fjp: which one of them? The lvm_tools.sh patch? 18:40 +fjp svenl: Use save logs option and get them using a web browser 18:40 svenl hi fjp . 18:40 +fjp Alphix: Yes. 18:41 svenl fjp: is the save logs option already available when the 'downloading additional modules' failed ? 18:41 Alphix fjp: how about the change from priority high to critical of all partman-lvm questions/error messages? 18:42 +fjp svenl: Depends on the initrd... I think it is in most cases. 18:42 svenl its a netboot inintrd, i have not tested it myself. 18:43 +fjp svenl: Just ask the user if it's listed in the menu. If all else fails, netcat (nc) can be used too. 18:43 svenl fjp: BTW, what is the problem with swap-on-lvm and bootloaders ? I didn't see any interaction in them. 18:44 +fjp svenl: Read the whole thread please. 18:45 svenl fjp: i did, well, almost, it seems some of the intermediary mails have not reached my inbox yet, those after my own post. 18:45 Alphix svenl: the problem is swsusp (possibly) 18:45 svenl Alphix: well. 18:46 +fjp Alphix: That one is less urgent. I'm not totally sure about it. AFAIK the general rule is that the installer should ensure that questions that don't have a working default or show a fatal error
Re: Are Georgian/Nepali display OK in the graphical installer ?
No, I'm afraid the screen quality of ttf-bpg-georgian-fonts (especially BPG Glaho in that package) is much better. Georgian portion of Freenfont does not conain any seirous hinting and the Georgian looks pretty bad. And, of course, first impression is very important :) So, actually, we should really request for a udeb for that font.

Re: Are Georgian/Nepali display OK in the graphical installer ?
That doesn't really help; all I see are six square, indicative of nonexistant letters. Actually, if you have the right font, you would have seen properly written Devanagari script:) But, of course, *showing* us the important topic was important and you were right by asking for the screenshot, Wouter. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Bug#361872: debconf-copydb: Trashes debconf database in /target
On Sunday 11 June 2006 20:04, Steinar H. Gunderson wrote: I'm unable to reproduce this with 0.102 in a normal (ie. non-d-i) environment: I can still reproduce the problem during an installation though... configdb is here set up to be my normal debconf database (so I have some source data to test with), but I can't understand why this would work outside d-i but not from pkgsel... any ideas? I have a few very wild ideas, but no idea how valid they are. One idea is the encoding (installer is running with nl_NL.UTF8, although the pkgsel postinst sets and exports LANG=C). Another is busybox. A third is the way debconf-copydb is called within d-i; maybe broken handling if the target is target_configdb? The full call is: debconf-copydb -p \ ^(debian-installer/language|debian-installer/country| debian-installer/keymap|passwd/username)$ \ configdb target_configdb pgpQT26dwWyGX.pgp Description: PGP signature

Quoting Christian Perrier ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): So, actually, we should really request for a udeb for that font. Davide, doyou take care of this (after checking whether we didn't *already* request for one...:)) Already done: #356333. We might need to add some puch for Matthew to add this udeb. I would say first release an ISO using ttf-bpg-georgian-fonts, show it to Aiet and wait for his advice...then we come back to Matt and ask him kindly..:-) -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Re: This is getting ridiculous ...
(please only public answers. No /msg on IRC)) Sven, There are (were?) people in the D-I team who are (were?) still hoping that one way to solve this situation can be found. Up to today, I was still in the mood of putting some hope that you would understand that your current conflict with Frans can only be solved by focusing on the areas where everybody, *including Frans* acknowledges your expertise. Gaining back the confidence would have been a very long process and that commit access which you seem to put a huge importance on would certainly have come back.certainly late (I would say after Etch release). The trust between you and Frans has been lost. And Frans is the team boss (by general agreement of the D-I team). In real life, when the trust is broken between a manager and his employees, a usual recommendation to both parties is to stick with factual work and do the best possible to avoid putting back personal relationship problems. Another common solution is to separate the people in different teams in the organization. Up to now, we have tried hard with the first solution which, honestly, could work if you don't bring back your old griefs all time long. Actually, in the real life, you would be fired *now*. And, yes, I have experience of that. Maybe you feel your svn commit access being removed as being fired. That is not exactly true as your contributions are still welcomed (see last commit logyour last proposed patch has been commited less than 12 hours after being proposed). We are in Debian and probably some of us put more hope in human behaviour than we would put in real life. This is why I *still* believe that things can settle. But I'm afraid I'm among the very last one people who believe so. Please think about it. Keep factual, focus on your technical work. Ignore Frans, he will anyway now ignore you, like it or not. Communication between you is actually not possible and trying to decide who's fault this is will not help. It will only dig a bigger hole. Some people (I know about Holger and I do so also) have offered to act as proxies in order to allow your contributions to D-I to continue, doing the best that we can. Because we believe that it's still worth it (and, believe me, several people will not understand why I still think so). Please be confident in *us* even if you are actually not confident in some other team members. Not sure that I have proofread that mail enoughplease give me some excuses if some part seem offending to you (or other people). They are not meant to be soand I wanted to send this mail *now*.
