Bug#622842: brcm80211 not setting correct country code?
I do not understand. I did of course as root. The rule in udev was not defined, though. I defined it , I restarted it , but no change. It does not matter if I use EU, ES or whatever. ?? Anyway, I think that is not iw / udev or similar problem as if I put a ralink stick, it works perfectly with regulatory domains and so. I think is a problem with driver ...

Bug#624699: initramfs-tools: include an option MODULES=all
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.98.8
Severity: wishlist
Include an option MODULES=all which includes the complete
/lib/modules/${version} subtree of the filesystem. This would come in
very handy when some modules are not included for various reasons (e.g.
exclude lists, module dependency problems), the exception list in
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules would get very long or when the admin is
too lazy to maintain it.
Ciao,
Alexander Wuerstlein.

Bug#624711: linux-image-2.6.32-5-powerpc: orinoco/airport driver returns two ESSIDs for an AP
Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.32-31 Severity: normal Hi, 'iwlist eth2 scan' returns two 'ESSID' fields on my airport equipped TiBook from a DD-WRT router. The latter ESSID is garbage, but it nevertheless gets picked up by the higher level network configuration (wicd), which makes automatic network configuration fail. Running iwconfig and ifup manually works fine, and there are no other network problems with this card / AP combination. iwlist also reports 'Mode:Unknown/bug' for this router. Other wireless cards I've tested give the correct iwlist output from this router, i.e. a single ESSID and the correct Mode. On the other hand, this router is the only one exhibiting the problem, other access points work correctly. Here's the full scan output (cell address has been blanked): eth2 Scan completed : Cell 01 - Address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx Channel:11 Frequency:2.462 GHz (Channel 11) Quality=24/70 Signal level=-86 dBm Encryption key:off ESSID:DD-WRT Bit Rates:1 Mb/s; 2 Mb/s; 5.5 Mb/s; 11 Mb/s; 6 Mb/s 9 Mb/s; 12 Mb/s; 18 Mb/s Bit Rates:24 Mb/s; 36 Mb/s; 48 Mb/s; 54 Mb/s ESSID:\x0B\x00\x1B\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00 Mode:Unknown/bug Extra:tsf=002812c5da51 Extra: Last beacon: 164ms ago IE: Unknown: 000461736D61 IE: Unknown: 010882848B960C121824 IE: Unknown: 03010B IE: Unknown: 2A0107 IE: Unknown: 32043048606C IE: Unknown: DD180050F20201010A0003A427A442435E0062322F00 IE: Unknown: 331ACC131B00 IE: Unknown: 2D1ACC131B00 IE: Unknown: 34160B001B00 IE: Unknown: 3D160B001B00 IE: Unknown: 4A0E14000A002C01C800140005001900 IE: Unknown: 7F0101 IE: Unknown: DD0900037F0101FF7F IE: Unknown: DD0A00037F040100 Best, Teemu -- Package-specific info: ** Version: Linux version 2.6.32-5-powerpc (Debian 2.6.32-31) (b...@decadent.org.uk) (gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4) ) #1 Mon Mar 7 22:49:07 UTC 2011 ** Command line: root=UUID=caa877ca-7d43-48c1-ad17-2e368b05a84a ro ** Not tainted ** Kernel log: [ 3977.550201] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 3977.745443] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 4113.108782] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4113.306089] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 4113.399829] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4115.551576] eth2: Lucent/Agere firmware doesn't support manual roaming [ 4184.653200] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4184.849084] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 4315.210957] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4315.402101] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 4315.494345] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4317.647017] eth2: Lucent/Agere firmware doesn't support manual roaming [ 4381.955753] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth2: link is not ready [ 4382.368595] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready [ 4467.627687] eth2: New link status: Connected (0001) [ 4467.627804] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth2: link becomes ready [ 4478.085138] eth2: no IPv6 routers present ** Model information revision: 2.1 (pvr 8000 0201) platform: PowerMac model : PowerBook3,3 machine : PowerBook3,3 motherboard : PowerBook3,3 MacRISC2 MacRISC Power Macintosh ** Loaded modules: Module Size Used by binfmt_misc10371 1 radeon693199 0 ttm46868 1 radeon drm_kms_helper 24325 1 radeon drm 142475 3 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper parport_pc 28780 0 lp 10975 0 parport32295 2 parport_pc,lp sco11560 2 bridge 48915 0 stp 4885 1 bridge bnep 13750 2 l2cap 32868 3 bnep crc16 4475 1 l2cap bluetooth 52362 5 sco,bnep,l2cap uinput 10355 2 ipt_REJECT 5453 1 ipt_LOG 7795 1 xt_limit4844 1 nf_conntrack_ipv4 13417 1 nf_defrag_ipv4 4391 1 nf_conntrack_ipv4 xt_state4551 1 xt_multiport5595 1 iptable_filter 5502 1 ip_tables 13570 1 iptable_filter x_tables 14599 6 ipt_REJECT,ipt_LOG,xt_limit,xt_state,xt_multiport,ip_tables

Include an option MODULES=all which includes the complete
/lib/modules/${version} subtree of the filesystem.
this needs a very good reason.
It would be simpler to use and less prone to user errors and software
problems. Also, I see no good reason to use MODULES=most when the size
of the initrd is not important, MODULES=all would have a far simpler
semantic, which makes it far easier to understand, debug and use.
Please note that I do not suggest making MODULES=all the default.
This would come in very handy when some modules are not included for various
reasons (e.g. exclude lists, module dependency problems),
what??
please be a lot more verbose what the encoutered problems where
that hindered MODULES=most
The primary reason that triggered the idea that MODULES=all would be a
good addition was bug no. 624692
Also MODULES=most excludes certain parts, for example the net part
excludes appletalk arcnet bonding can hamradio irda pcmcia tokenring
usb wan wimax wireless. If I need one or more of those modules in my
image, I need to manually override those exceptions. For one or two
modules that is fine, but for tasks like support that for all the
hardware we use anywhere around here that list grows and is tedious to
maintain. MODULES=all does not need any of that maintenance. Also, it
eliminates the need for the elaborate and error-prone dependency
resolution that MODULES=most needs, therefore making it very robust,
useful for debugging (why doesn't it boot, is there a module
missing?) and an easy workaround should MODULES=most be broken for some
reason.
I have to admit though, that I'm not sure if there are any downsides
besides the obviously larger resulting initrd.
the exception list in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules would get very long or
when the admin is too lazy to maintain it.
there you totaly loose me, aboves mentioned file, is an *include* list.
I know. What i meant was an exception to beeing excluded by 'most'.
Sorry for the confusing double-negative.
Ciao,
Alexander Wuerstlein.

Package: initramfs-tools

Severity: wishlist
Include an option MODULES=all which includes the complete
/lib/modules/${version} subtree of the filesystem. This would come in
very handy when some modules are not included for various reasons (e.g.
exclude lists, module dependency problems), the exception list in
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules would get very long or when the admin is
too lazy to maintain it.

this needs a very good reason.
It would be simpler to use and less prone to user errors and software
problems. Also, I see no good reason to use MODULES=most when the size
of the initrd is not important, MODULES=all would have a far simpler
semantic, which makes it far easier to understand, debug and use.
Please note that I do not suggest making MODULES=all the default.
MODULES=most is there to have an general initramfs that should just
work out of the box, if it doesn't than this is a bug and needs to
be reported.
we won't add a third option that is not supportable.
first of all big initramfs - slow boot consequence
secondly you don't necessarly want drm in initramfs
third if you go down your road you may argue to add X to initramfs.
The primary reason that triggered the idea that MODULES=all would be a
good addition was bug no. 624692
that is circular reasoning.
Also MODULES=most excludes certain parts, for example the net part
excludes appletalk arcnet bonding can hamradio irda pcmcia tokenring
usb wan wimax wireless. If I need one or more of those modules in my
image, I need to manually override those exceptions. For one or two
modules that is fine, but for tasks like support that for all the
hardware we use anywhere around here that list grows and is tedious to
maintain.
report a bug for the specific module that may have been missing in your
case. don't overgeneralise.
MODULES=all does not need any of that maintenance. Also, it
eliminates the need for the elaborate and error-prone dependency
resolution that MODULES=most needs, therefore making it very robust,
useful for debugging (why doesn't it boot, is there a module
missing?) and an easy workaround should MODULES=most be broken for some
reason.
every option adds maintenance and bugs. as told above I don't want any
of those, so this proposal is disguarded.
I have to admit though, that I'm not sure if there are any downsides
besides the obviously larger resulting initrd.
thank you

The error I am now encountering seems to be the one discussed here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23012 [...] That was fixed in 2.6.37-rc5. ...then it has been re-introduced, or a new bug which causes the same behavior for at least my keyspan device has cropped up in -rc7.

Steaphan, it seems you didn't followup in the kernel.org bugzilla. Is this fixed in current kernels from sid or testing? Testing on a different computer, just plugging it in with a clean boot on the same kernel version as before (that this bug was filed against) immediately crashed the kernel (OOPS, followed shortly by a constant terminal bell and no response to any input, not even numlock or SysRq). Testing this device using linux-image2.6.38-2-amd64 from current sid (v2.6.38-4) resulted in all 4 ports working perfectly. However, I only could test them individually on that machine, so I can not confirm they will work simultaneously as they are used on the real system. But, it certainly seems better to me. I will follow up once I get a chance to test this on the live system with this new kernel version, but that may be a while.
