Source: firmware-nonfree
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hello,

The binary packages generated from this source have not been avaiable in
Sid for at least one day now.

E.g. https://packages.debian.org/unstable/firmware-iwlwifi


Thanks,

George

Package: src:linux
Version: 3.2.51-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

I am seeing the backtrace below in my kernel log after the system has been 
running for several weeks.

Looks like it has something to do with Xen - memory leak maybe?


Thanks,

George

Bug#604442: linux-image-2.6-686: Kernel Oops after return from hibernation

I ran 2.6.32-27 for a few days and couldn't reproduce the problem any more.

FWIW the environment has changed since the time of the issue: I have
rebuild the box to run amd64.

Up to you on how to go on from here...


Thanks,

George

Sorry, I somehow missed the information request e-mail... :-(

Anyway the problem has gone away a long time ago after some kernel
update, so closing is fine.

Laptop was Dell Latitude E6400.

Hello,

I am getting regular oopses again from the kernel after returning from

Bug#555360: linux-image-2.6-686: Package uninstallable due to missing dependency

Probably. I was lazy and copied and pasted from 
http://packages.debian.org/sid/linux-image-2.6-686



The problem is that the package hangs in the new queue that isn't
handled at the moment.


Thanks for the information.

Hello,

Package currently depends on linux-image-2.6.31-1-686 that is not available. 
Dependency information needs to be updated? 

This has been broken for at least a week now.


Thanks,

Bug#387460: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686: kernel panic when trying to add vlan to a slave bonded interface

2008-12-03 Thread George B.
2008/11/29 Moritz Muehlenhoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
> George, did you report that bug upstream?

Hi Mortiz,

I don't think I submitted a bug upstream (I think I may have had some
problems, but I can't remember now). Since then, I've changed jobs
twice, so I no longer have access to that hardware.

I tried reproducing the problem on a Lenny VirtualBox VM, but could
not. Feel free to close this bug - I'll re-open it if I manage to
reproduce it (I should have some spare real servers available for that
in our lab at some point in future).


Thanks.

George.

Bug#499527: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686: Kernel Oops with Belkin 54g USB wireless network adapter

2008-09-19 Thread George B.
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-2
Severity: important

Hello,

I got an Oops message (see below) when I plugged in a Belkin 54g USB wireless 
network adapter. Looks like upstream is aware of the problem, but I'm reporting 
this here so you can track this.

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/9/31

Workaround from above link:
---
Please note that a workaround is blacklisting rt2500usb and loading
rt73usb directly. (The bug is triggered because rt2500usb is loaded for
a USB device which does not contain rt 2500usb chipset).
---


HTH,

George.

2006-09-14 Thread George B.
Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
Version: 2.6.17-8
Severity: important

Hello,

I managed to get a kernel panic when I tried to add a vlan to one of the
slave interfaces in a bond. :-(

With hindsight I probably shouldn't have tried it, but crashes are bad, 
so reporting it now.

Bug#335538: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386: Hard drive locks up - DMA or Power Management problem?

Hi George,

I am having the same problem as you did. So installing ampd package didn't

Just those crappy HDD problem? Upgrading kernel might fix this problem?


Hello,

The problem is still there, although it does not occur very often
(once every few months or so). The few machines that still have those
HDDs have the latest Sarge 2.6.8-3 kernel, acpid, DMA disabled, drive
power management disabled (through hdparm).

To be honest though, we have swapped out the HDDs on most of them for
Compact Flash cards and those machines they have been rock solid
since.

I don't know if the Etch / Sid kernels will fix this, as I never got
around trying this out (being firewalls, running Stable is a
requirement really). I probably should, since Etch is due in a few
months. If you try this, feel free to let me know how it went.


HTH,

George.

2006-03-16 Thread George B.
Just to let you know that the 'fix' did not work. :-(

The hard drives will still randomly go to sleep and not wake up.
What's more, even a sysrq forced reboot does not wake the drive up -
only a cold boot works!

The end result is that we are gradually replacing these crappy disks
in our firewalls with CompactFlash disks.



Bug#335538: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386: Hard drive locks up - DMA or Power Management problem?

2005-11-20 Thread George B.
I think I finally fixed the problem by installing the apmd package. :-\

The problem was, I am guessing, that the hard drive went to sleep at
some random time (despite it being explicitly told not to in the BIOS)
and regardless of the disk activity (so even my 15 min dd cronjob did
not fix it) and nothing was there to detect it and tell the system
that the drive was not dead, but just sleeping. I'm not sure what apmd
does when the drive goes to sleep, but it seems to do something
useful.

Anyway, not a kernel bug (unless you think it should have managed
without apmd,) so please close this and sorry to have wasted your
time.

Hmm, don't think so. In my case I had no trouble turning DMA on (in
fact, I disabled it yesterday with hdparm just to see if it would make
any difference - it will take a few weeks before I can draw any
conclusions.)

Don't get me wrong, I think may well be faulty hardware, but a general
fault rather than with a specific unit. Unfortunately as such this
would be way over my head.

Just for the record, the hdparm -b 255 hack did not work on at least
one of the machines and neither did a 15 min cronjob of dd if=/dev/hdc
of=/dev/null bas=1024 count=3000 seek=1000 > /dev/null :-(

One of the firewalls I still haven't rebooted, one died last night and
the other is still alive for the moment.

The only thing that all these boxes have in common (apart from
identical HDDs, but one had a different one before) is a VIA chipset.
How likely is it that there's a bug either in that, or the driver for
it?

I am very confused :-(

I'm afraid I will have to disagree with you on this one. All of the
disks were brand new and the problem started showing up after a few
days/weeks after assembly.

Also, one of the firewalls had a different (3.5") drive in it before,
that displayed similar symptoms. Thinking the disk was dying I swapped
it, only to have the problem come back. (The 3.5" drive is being
happily used by my brother now, with no problems whatsoever.)

Also, 3 out of 3 is a bit high failure rate...

The initial DMA error messages appear now and again, and seem to be 
harmless (but also PM related) then it all goes wrong after a few weeks 
running. :-(

I will be happy to privide more specific information, if you tell me 
how to get it. I don't really know much about hardware/kernel debugging.

Well, if it fails when building a module I will just go and bug the
maintaner for that module source. ;-)

Sorry, which one? Automatically use gcc-3.3, or default to gcc-4.0?

Will it automatically use gcc-3.3 when compiling? With me it defaulted
to gcc-4.0.

Bug#323570: kernel-source-2.4.27: Build fails with default gcc 4.0

2005-08-17 Thread George B.
Package: kernel-source-2.4.27
Version: 2.4.27-10
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Hello,

Submitting as promised in #31763.

The package depends on non-specific gcc. This is now gcc 4.0 by default.
As discussed in #317637, build will fail unless gcc 3.2 is used.

Possible solutions:

1) Specific dependency on gcc 3.2. The problem is that /usr/bin/gcc may
well be linked to /usr/bin/gcc-4.0, as this is now required by quite a
few programs. I know that I had to manually re-symlink /usr/bin/gcc to
gcc-3 (not sure if it was 3.2, or 3.3 - sorry) in order to get it to
compile. I know that there is some sort of variable I could pass when
building, but I could not get that to work bor some reason.

2) Get it to build with 4.0 :-p


HTH,

George B.

Perhaps a dependency/conflict entry needs to be assigned to the
package, because it broke after a standard package upgrade. I will
resubmit a new bug for that.

Oops, I think you misunderstood. It's just that I am running an older
version of 2.4.27 kernel that has security issues (which is why I was
upgrading.) ;-)
