Bug#1057399: firmware-amd-graphics: Unintended consequence of /usr merge - video output ceases

2023-12-04 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: firmware-amd-graphics
Version: 20230625-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

A long time ago on a motherboard far away lived an AMD graphics card 
code-named Cedar. 

Cedar was missing its firmware so its owner copied the firmware to 
/lib/firmware/radeon and all was well.

The graphics card was later moved to another pc (after Cedar firmware was
packaged), replaced by an R7 250 
graphics card and all was well.

Later on the motherboard went to the great scrap metal recovery yard, 
replaced by a motherboard with an AMD APU, and its graphics unit was 
code-named Aruba and all was well.

Then, an early present arrived in the form of /usr merge for AMD graphics 
firmware. 
A small message said: 
"unable to remove /lib/firmware/radeon - directory not empty" 
and all was well until update-initramfs was run and a reboot.

For update-initramfs had found the old /lib/firmware/radeon and its Cedar 
firmware, but stopped searching for /usr/lib/firmware/radeon, which 
contained Aruba firmware.

Module radeon was loaded but Aruba firmware was not found, and no further 
video output appeared. (The boot process continued but not all stages were 
successful, preventing a remote shell into the machine).

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?

Finally solved by running a rescue DVD, checking the package update log, 
and blacklisting the radeon module, then deleting /lib/firmware/radeon and 
running update-initramfs -u - k all

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Possible solutions: if dh_movetousr would result in both /lib/firmware/radeon 
and /usr/lib/firmware/radeon, report this as an error rather than an 
informational message, probably better here than in update-initramfs-tools.

Circumstances that lead to problems:

 1. Manually adding a missing firmware file, 
 2. Changing graphics card, 
 3. /usr merge leaving manually added firmware behind, with just an 
 informational message rather than an error 
 4. update-initramfs searching for old or new firmware locations but only 
 loading the first location (old) if both exist 
 5. radeon module ceasing video output (and possible further problems) if no 
 firmware found
 6. Forgetting how to blacklist a module from grub.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

which is the location where the RESUME variable had to be set in

Yes, that's what it does - and this is documented at the top of
initramfs.conf(5).

Arthur, please confirm whether RESUME is set somewhere else.

Ben.



Thanks for your help, /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume did exist.

After removing it, there was no longer any warning message on running 
update-initramfs and the machine rebooted without attempting a resume.


Please close the bug report.

Arthur.

W: but no matching swap device is available.
I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/sda4
I: (UUID=0e388c35-a730-4a86-ac45-e11486b3e992)
I: Set the RESUME variable to override this.

As far as I can tell, on boot up there is no attempt to resume from that UUID.


Did you hibernate first?

Cheers,
   Sven



There was an old /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume file.

I had never used hibernation.

Removing the /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume file fixed things.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks, but the rationale was really deeply buried in the bug reports 
rather than in the Debian changelog, which would have been more helpful 
if it stated what the change was to support and what modules would no 
longer be in the Debian kernel package as a result.


My Athlon64 machine's onboard sound had one of its inputs fail and I 
wanted to use the Soundblaster Audigy card from this machine. Although I 
like building custom kernels, it is also really helpful to be able to 
run a stock kernel to compare things if a custom kernel has a problem.


Regards,

Arthur.

2015-12-20 Thread Arthur Marsh



This is no way an acceptable patch.  The driver needs to be converted
properly to the Linux 2.6+ device model, instead of adding further
kluges to it.

Ben.



Thanks, that patch wasn't provided by me. The old driver just broke 
during other updates and that patch was provided as a workaround to me.

Hi, I still have the issue that with initramfstools later than 0.116 (ie
0.117 and 0.118) that with the disks corrupted, the boot process would hang.

With initramfs-tools 0.116, the boot process proceeded normally and
successfully run fsck on the filesystems to be mounted (the disk above
with a HPA was not listed in /etc/fstab to have any filesystems mounted).

I'm not sure how to reproduce this bug without resorting to somehow
deliberately corrupting a filesystem and/or disk partition table.


I think this must be a kernel or hardware bug that is triggered by
slightly different behaviour in initramfs-tools.

Have you seen this issue recur with more recent kernel versions?

Ben.



I haven't seen this issue more recently but haven't had a dirty 
filesystem apart from those caused by a few power failures.


Part of the problem may be that the forced filesystem checks with later 
than 0.116 version of initramfs-tools do not display any visible 
progress on the console, so it's not always clear what is happening.


Is there a way to make the forced fsck progress (e.g. for the root 
filesystem) visible on the console with current versions of initramfs-tools?


Arthur.



Bug#781239: initramfs-tools: when fsck of root file system forced, no feedback / fsck

2015-03-28 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.119
Followup-For: Bug #781239

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

After reproducing the problem by using:

 tune2fs -C 99 

on the root filesystem of my machine running in 64 bit mode, I tried the 
same thing on my other machine running in 32 bit mode (which I am reporting
from now) and fsck of the root filesystem ran successfully with feedback of
the process.

I am left wondering what is different between the configurations that would
cause the failure to occur on the machine running in 64 bit mode but not
on this machine.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Bug#763516: initramfs-tools: fails to boot with dirty root filesystem

2015-03-28 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: initramfs-tools
Followup-For: Bug #763516

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

version 0.119 of initramfs-tools fixed this problem but left one without
any feedback on the progress of a forced fsck of the root filesystem
nor the means to interrupt it (bug #781239).

   * What led up to the situation?
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Another datapoint. I have a hard disk whose filesystems are *not* mounted
at start-up, but after a corruption issue, the disk's state causes a lock-up
requiring a hardware reset and a second start-up (not helpful if this was a
remote machine).

On the second (successful) start-up I saw these messages:

This means: your hard drive has an HPA
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_Protected_Area configured, but you
actually use that area under Linux.  Linux automatically enables access
to the HPA when it detects this.  This was implemented in 2.6.34 and
backported to squeeze; you just didn't notice the messages before.

Ben.

A hardware reset was required when the boot process hung.

Bug#762306: lockup when accessing cifs-mounted file on 3.17.0-rc1 and later when remote samba server is restarted

2014-10-03 Thread Arthur Marsh

Hi, I just did:

aplay file-on-server.wav

where the file was several minutes long and I could repeatedly restart 
the samba server if I wanted to, but if I had a crash it happened on the 
first restart of the server.


WAV files have the advantage in testing of a constant and fairly high 
data rate for playback.


Regards,

Arthur.

 CIFS: Fix rsize usage in readpages

 If a server changes maximum buffer size for read (rsize) requests
 on reconnect we can fail on repeating with a big size buffer on
 -EAGAIN error in readpages. Fix this by checking rsize all the
 time before repeating requests.

It points to a different first bad commit and I apologise if this has made
it more difficult to locate the problem.

I am happy to try more tests to help identify the problem.

I've reproduced and created a patch that fixes the problem to me (see

Bug#762306: lockup when accessing cifs-mounted file on 3.17.0-rc1 and later when remote samba server is restarted

2014-10-03 Thread Arthur Marsh
Sorry, I only tried doing a service restart rather than a service stop, 
wait, service start. I assumed the problem happened when the client was 
starved for input when smbd was stopped.


I notice that the patches for this have come through to Linus' tree. I 
am rebuilding the kernel with them after removing Pavel's test patch.


Regards,

Arthur.

Steve French wrote, on 04/10/14 04:29:

Retried (slightly earlier build) but instead of doing ifconfig lo
down I did a killall of smbd - I then got a system hang within a few
seconds of killing samba.   Did you ever get the failure early, before
restarting Samba?

Pardon the top post but I tried the same thing on my dual core Pentium 4
machine mounting via cifs a filesytem on my AMD64 (quad core) machine, then
running aplay /mnt/remotefilesystem/somefile.wav
then restarting samba on the serving machine.

The results were the same as what I've posted before with the client being
on the quad-core AMD64 machine and the server being the Pentium 4 machine, a
nasty lock-up pointing to similar code.

Has anyone else been able to reproduce this problem?

Regards,

On 3.16.0 kernels, whether compiled by myself or the stock Debian
kernel, if I have program accessing a file on a CIFS-mounted file system
(specifically playing an audio file), and restart the samba server on
the remote machine, I might get a brief pause, but no major problems.

On 3.17.0-rc1 and later I get a complete machine lock-up.

Bug#762306: lockup when accessing cifs-mounted file on 3.17.0-rc1 and later when remote samba server is restarted

2014-09-30 Thread Arthur Marsh
Pardon the top post but I tried the same thing on my dual core Pentium 4 
machine mounting via cifs a filesytem on my AMD64 (quad core) machine, 
then running aplay /mnt/remotefilesystem/somefile.wav

then restarting samba on the serving machine.

The results were the same as what I've posted before with the client 
being on the quad-core AMD64 machine and the server being the Pentium 4 
machine, a nasty lock-up pointing to similar code.


Has anyone else been able to reproduce this problem?

Regards,

Arthur Marsh.

On 3.16.0 kernels, whether compiled by myself or the stock Debian
kernel, if I have program accessing a file on a CIFS-mounted file system
(specifically playing an audio file), and restart the samba server on
the remote machine, I might get a brief pause, but no major problems.

On 3.17.0-rc1 and later I get a complete machine lock-up.

Bug#762306: lockup when accessing cifs-mounted file on 3.17.0-rc1 and later when remote samba server is restarted

2014-09-27 Thread Arthur Marsh
I also reproduced the general protection fault with the current Linus 
git head (3.17-rc6+) and trying each of vers=1.0 and vers=2.0 and vers=3.0.


I am really surprised if no-one else has experienced this problem given 
how I have been able to reproduce it across all the 3.17.0-r1 to 
3.17.0-rc6 kernel versions.


Arthur.

On 3.16.0 kernels, whether compiled by myself or the stock Debian
kernel, if I have program accessing a file on a CIFS-mounted file system
(specifically playing an audio file), and restart the samba server on
the remote machine, I might get a brief pause, but no major problems.

On 3.17.0-rc1 and later I get a complete machine lock-up.

Has anyone else experienced similar?

I'm happy to supply any further details and try test fixes.

Arthur.



I'm still getting the problem with kernel 3.17.0-rc5

Has anyone been able to reproduce the problem?

2014-09-26 Thread Arthur Marsh
I tried each of the -o vers=2.0 and the -o vers=3.0 options to the mount 
-t cifs command with kernel 3.17.0-rc6 and also received a general 
protection fault.

Sorry for the long quiet.  Do you still have the affected hardware?
If so, does it still reproduce this bug?  And if not, do you remember
approximately when it was fixed?  (/var/log/dpkg.log* might help)

Curious,

Hi, I haven't tried playing etracer with the Radeon 9200SE until this 
last week when the old motherboard was replaced.


I've been able to play etracer (slowly) with the new motherboard (ASUS 
P4S800, Pentium 4 / Sis chip-set) and Radeon 9200SE, and the only 
problem that I struck only happened once:

Is that currently possible?

could you check against newest 2.6.39~rc6 ?


This problem did not occur in 2.6.38 kernels.

Previous attempts at git-bisecting the kernel.org kernels have been
inconclusive.

In recent kernel builds, pcspkr is not included as a compiled module.

This made my pc silent when I wanted to retain the beeps.

I tried using snd-pcsp with the following result:

Hi,
The next release of Debian (6.0, code name Squeeze) will be based
on 2.6.32. Please test the current 2.6.32 from unstable and tell
us whether the problem persists. If so, we should report it upstream
to the kernel.org developers.

The 2.6.32 kernel is available from packages.debian.org and can
be installed in both Debian stable, testing and unstable
installations.

Thanks,
Moritz



Hi, pcspkr loads fine and I get the speaker beeps with kernel 2.6.32 
from Debian Unstable thanks.


Regards,

Arthur.

Just for anyone's interest, the problem was caused by not 
clearing/resetting the BIOS settings after upgrading the BIOS.

I seem to remember that we discussed this bug on IRC, but the
conclusions were not recorded here.  However, my understanding is that
these problems resulted from enabling APIC in the kernel while disabling
it in the BIOS.  This is considered to be misconfiguration and not a
kernel bug.

Package: linux-2.6
Severity: normal


I recently purchase a pc with a dual-core AMD64 cpu and Asus M3A78 Pro
motherboard.

I experienced very poor disk i/o performance and filesystem corruption when
I enabled the BIOS option ACPI APIC Support, to the extent that an ext3
filesystem had unrecoverable errors.

The BIOS manual describes the option: 

ACPI APIC Support When set to enabled, the ACPI APIC table pointer is 
included in the RSDT pointer list.


Since I've disabled ACPI APIC Support I have had no hard disk i/o problems,
but since the patch http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1473/ has been applied
to the kernel source, the kernel has disabled the use of the second CPU core.

I've backed out that patch and recompiled the kernel to make both CPU cores
available, but would rather a fix that doesn't require manually patching
the kernel source.

I should also mention that this disk i/o and filesystem corruption with 
ACPI APIC enabled was apparent when using the 2.6.26 kernel but not 
necessarily restricted to just that kernel.

http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1473/ causes kernel to only use 1 cpu core on Asus M3A78 Pro motherboard

2009-04-18 Thread Arthur Marsh
Hi, I just went through a kernel bisection to find out why my Asus M3A78 
Pro motherboard with dual core AMD64 cpu was only seeing one cpu core on 
2.6.29 kernels, but showed and used both cores on earlier kernels such 
as 2.6.26. The kernel and applications I have been using were compiled 
for x86-64 architecture (64-bit).


After bisection identified commit 
7b37b5fd9ba32c0c5afc3537eed7e7466f2173e2 which added patch 
http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1473/ I rebuilt the current 2.6.29 
kernel from http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net with that patch backed 
out, and again I had multiple cores available:

solution that does not cause the problems that the above patch was

ACPI 2.0 is enabled in the BIOS.

I disabled ACPI APIC support in the BIOS due to disk read/write problems 
and file system corruption, which I've just reported as Debian bug 
#524643 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524643 )

I have since been unable to reproduce any problems with ACPI APIC 
enabled in the BIOS for kernels 2.6.26 and 2.6.29 so I have re-compiled 
the 2.6.29 to enable patch http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1473/ and 
now I get reported:


$ dmesg|grep SMP

Thanks to those who suggested that the ACPI APIC should be enabled.

My conclusion is that corrupt BIOS settings after a BIOS upgrade caused 
the initial disk i/o problems which I wrongly attributed to the ACPI 
APIC enabled setting. By reseting the BIOS to defaults (but also 
disabling the default ACPI APIC enabled setting), further problems were 
avoided, but I didn't re-check the ACPI APIC enabled setting until the 
last few hours.

I was trying to remove a 2.6.27 kernel I had built from source and somehow the
initrd was removed before initramfs-tools tried to remove it.

This resulted in a failure to remove the kernel from the packaging system.

See also bug #524499. The error message I was left with was:

   Cannot delete /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27, doesn't exist.
   run-parts: /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1
   dpkg: error processing linux-2.6.27 (--purge):
 subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1
   Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-2.6.27
   E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
 
 So this is a problem with
  /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools 
 
   I temporarily added exit 0 to the start of
   /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools to force the removal of
   kernel-2.6.27.
 
 Right. We need to get the script in
  /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools  
  fixed. Any idea where it came from?

They're in the Subversion repository for this package and will be in the
next release.  Note that the change to remove them from kernel images is
also unreleased.


Hi, I'd just found out that the non-DFSG-free firmware had been removed 
from the 2.6.29-rc* kernels at kernel-archive.buildserver.net, so I was 
interested to know if the firmware had been packaged anywhere.

This fixes the regression introduced by the commit
58e2a02eb18393e76a469580fedf7caec190eb5e (eata: convert to use the
data buffer accessors), reported:

http://marc.info/?t=12298762136r=1w=2

- fix DMA_NONE handling in map_dma()

- this driver can't use scsi_dma_map since host-shost_gendev.parent
is not set properly (it uses scsi_register).

2008-12-22 Thread Arthur Marsh
I had a look at the current Debian 2.6.27 source and applied your patch 
manually against it.


It will take me a few hours to compile the new kernel and I should be 
able to test it in about 7 hours time.


Thanks again,

Arthur.

Thanks, I applied the patch manually against the Debian 2.6.27 kernel 
source at http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/ and after starting the 
 patched kernel, the eata module loaded successfully. I mounted the 
filesystems on the attached scsi disk and ran ls -alR on all filesystems 
successfully.

Bug#506835: started git bisection

2008-12-18 Thread Arthur Marsh
I've obtained adsl2+ service and re-partitioned my hard disk and have 
commenced a git bisection based on:


http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.23.y.git;a=summary

2.6.23test/.git/refs/bisect$ cat bad good*
4367388f04eea72e78347dc9b299698bf4275f92
7dcca30a32aadb0520417521b0c44f42d09fe05c

As kernel compilation takes around 12 hours on this machine (PII-266, 
384 MiB RAM), it may take some weeks to identify the change that broke 
DPT-2044W SCSI support on this machine.

Bug#506835: DPT2044W SCSI adaptor with disk installed but no /dev/sd* devices created

2008-12-09 Thread Arthur Marsh

Arthur Marsh wrote, on 2008-12-08 19:58:

I'm still trying to get to the source of the bug that prevents me from 
using a DPT2044W SCSI card that uses the eata module, and have narrowed 
down the working and non-working Debian kernel images to between 
linux-image-2.6.22-3-686 version 2.6.22-6.lenny1 which works, and 
linux-image-2.6.23-1-686 version 2.6.23-1 which fails.


There appear to be a large number of changes between the two and I am 
unfamiliar with how to generate an intermediate kernel source with 
Debian changes and config to build and test.


Thanks all for the comments on building kernel.org source under Debian.

What I'm seeing is that I could do a git clone of a kernel.org 2.6.24 
tree (once I get adsl2+ up and running and buy an extra hard disk) and 
build intermediate kernels (bisection), but surely there must be a way 
of generating intermediate *Debian* kernels to narrow down the source of 
the problem with running the DPT 2044W SCSI card under later kernels.


Arthur.

The 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 kernel allowed me to modprobe eata and I
received similar messages to those quoted above.

The next newest kernel I can download is 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686.


kernel 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 had problems after modprobe eata

Is there any site that has precompiled Debian kernels between 
2.6.18.dfsg.1-1etch2 and 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 ?

Did you compile eata into the kernel or as a module?


compiled into the kernel.




and the machine locks up after the line:

Any suggestions?


No good ones ... You could put the SCSI controller into another slot
and see what happens then --- I've had some SCSI controllers that
won't work in one slot but in another, and I've seen network cards
working just fine in one board but not in another.

You could try older kernels.


Yes, I'll try 2.6.18 (2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 is the earliest Debian 2.6
kernel I can get hold of from my current archives)

The sysrescuecd 0.30 beta that found the SCSI controller and hard disk
identified its kernel version as:

Linux sysrescuecd 2.6.18.3-fd01 #1 Tue Dec 5 11:20:14 UTC 2006 i686

SCSI-related lines from the dmesg output of the sysrescuecd were:

The current eata.c from 2.6.27 source on kernel-archive.buildserver.net has:

eata.c: .name = EATA/DMA 2.0x rev. 8.10.00 

so it appears that the eata.c file hasn't changed significantly since
the working eata code built-in to the sysrescuecd kernel.

I'll download the 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12etch2 kernel and try it.

Arthur.

This problem happened with a large number of test kernels as well (can't 
be sure if any recent kernels *didn't* show this problem).

It would be nice if the kernel could handle cd drives going bad more 
gracefully. This problem also locked up dosbox.

After changing to a known good pioneer dvd-rw drive, I started getting 
the following errors when playing an audio cd:

Bug#472698: initramfs-tools: more serious than important

2008-03-26 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.91e
Followup-For: Bug #472698


Thanks to the previous poster I was able to recover a system that 
wouldn't boot.

My method of recovery was to use the Etch installation CD in 
recovergui mode, pick the correct root filesystem, chroot into it and 
run aptitude to downgrade busybox to the version in testing, then run: 

update-initramfs -k all -u

Without the previous poster's information I would not have been able to 
recover the machine that failed to reboot.

New references into libgcc, which is not available in the kernel.

__umoddi3: modulo operation on unsigned double wide integer or so, with
overflow checking.

Would the workaround suggested at 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32044#c28


You need to add -fno-tree-scev-cprop to the KBUILD_CFLAGS

work when applied the particular source files in the kernel where the 
error is occurring?

what arch, what .config?


i386 architecture and .config based on linux-image-2.6.23-1-686 with the 
following changes:


selected processor type to Athlon
set pre-emption model to low latency desktop
enabled pre-empting the big kernel lock
enabled default security capabilities as a module

The same error happened when the selected processor type was Pentium II 
(pre-coppermine).






did you try 2.6.24-rc7 from trunk, see apt lines
- http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel
 
 


No. I am about to download it and try to compile it with gcc-4.3

Arthur.

Bug#394974: linux-source-2.6.18: had to recompile modules when upgrading from 2.6.18-5 to 2.6.18-6

2006-11-24 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: linux-source-2.6.18
Version: 2.6.18-6
Followup-For: Bug #394974


As I've read in the bug reports, it appears that from time to time 
module compatibility breaks with minor version upgrades. In my case when 
I tried to load ALSA and realtime-lsm modules compiled against 2.6.18-5 
source on a 
hand-compiled kernel based on 2.6.18-6 source, I received errors of the 
form:

snd: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module

realtime: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module

It would be good to have warning at least in 
/usr/share/doc/linux-source-2.6.18 when modules would need to be 
recompiled, and hopefully some proper versioning would take place so 
that one can have multiple kernels installed that can work with 
separately packaged modules.

The 2.6.17-1-686 has lockups when I attempt to play MIDI files to a

are you sure that 2.6.16-2-686 works?
it was the first kernel with CONFIG_HZ_250 previous had 1000,
i would suspect the difference to be between 2.6.16-2-686 and
2.6.16-1-686
 
I'm running a PII-266 with 256 MiB of RAM. 


Yes 2.6.16-2-686 works, 2.6.17-1-686 locks up.

2006-07-04 Thread Arthur Marsh
By recompiling and installing the ALSA modules with the 
alsa-timer-irqsave-patch available at http://www.lxtec.de/debarchiv for 
kernel 2.6.17-1-686, I no longer have problems with MIDI playback on my 
SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 model 0220 sound card under kernel 2.6.17-1-686.

Bug#374145: linux-image-2.6.16-2-686: parallel port detected but not reported until much later

2006-06-17 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-686
Version: 2.6.16-14
Severity: normal


Recently I've run into the problem of the notification of the parallel 
port's existance not being passed onto udev until around half an hour 
after boot-up:

Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport: PnPBIOS parport detected.
Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), 
irq 7, dma 1 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,ECP,DMA]
Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: Printer, Canon BJC-3000

Jun 17 22:49:46 localhost kernel: lp0: using parport0 
(interrupt-driven).

/dev/lp0 doesn't get created until the time of the last message listed 
above, and the printer isn't accessible to CUPS until /dev/lp0 is 
created, so printing doesn't work until long after boot-up.

I've tried a few different BIOS settings for the parallel port and the 
problem has stayed the same.

Apart from buying a parallel port card, are there any ways to pinpoint 
the problem?

Regards,

Arthur Marsh.

Bug#345934: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686: postinstal failure observed here also

2006-01-05 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686
Version: 2.6.15-1
Followup-For: Bug #345934


I also noted:

 -- doing nothing at 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.15-1-686.postinst line 579.

The new kernel is installed and usable, but the package remains listed 
as partly installed and attempts to complete installation each time I 
add or update packages with aptitude.

Regards,

Arthur.

Bug#343048: linux-image-2.6.14-2-686: fails to boot

2005-12-12 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: linux-image-2.6.14-2-686
Version: 2.6.14-5
Followup-For: Bug #343048


Same thing happens here. I also had problems trying to install loop-aes 
at the same time as upgrading from 2.6.14-4 to 2.6.14-5. The 
installation went ahead if I upgraded the kernel in aptitude first then 
the loop-aes stuff.

Bug#336561: linux-image-2.6.14-1-686: CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=y in 2.6.14 prevents realtime-lsm being used with a stock kernel

2005-10-31 Thread Arthur Marsh
Package: linux-image-2.6.14-1-686
Version: 2.6.14-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


Hi, I tried to build the realtime-lsm against 2.6.14 and it complained 
that it couldn't do so unless CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES was built 
into the kernel as a module.

Fix:

CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=m

I'm just about to try installing the realtime-lsm against a kernel 
rebuilt with CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=m

Regards,

Arthur.

Bug#336561: linux-image-2.6.14-1-686: CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=y in 2.6.14 prevents realtime-lsm being used with a stock kernel

2005-10-31 Thread Arthur Marsh
OK, as it turned out, realtime.ko built against the 2.6.14 kernel source 
wouldn't load on 2.6.14 even after 2.6.14 had been rebuilt with 
CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES=M.


The motivation for attempting it in the first place was to give xmms the 
ability to run in realtime mode (and xmms runs here fine without realtime).


It's not a big problem, just that I hadn't seen the discussion on the 
change to CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES.


Regards,

Arthur.

This has been discussed in the past, but it seems there are security issues
why building CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES as modules is not a good idea.

Also, it seems that realtime-lsm is rather broken if it really needs a modular
CONFIG_SECURITY_CAPABILITIES, and should be fixed, reassigning to it.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
