 We just shipped a good SD card to the person with the 'failing'
 laptop. Expect to hear back very soon.

  On 12.1.0 the switch to systemd completely reworks the shutdown /
  umount process; so if it affects Fedora or OLPC releases, the scope is
  11.3.x / F14. Very unlikely that we see it, at least in this
  particular incarnation, on 12.1.0.

I've found microSD card performance can change slightly as a result of
a reflash.  On #1323 it seems an fs-update was done prior to the test.

If you wish to keep analysing it to look at the differences between
microSD cards, then:

- make the same number of shutdown tests for both the original microSD
  card and the different microSD card, so that the difference can be
  established statistically.

- restrict the testing to microSD cards from OLPC that we have
  qualified.

- widen the testing to microSD cards from OLPC that have had little use.

- look for difference in behaviour with the microSD card written to in
  one laptop and used in another ... 'cause I'd hate to find that this
  was due to fs-update.

I predict that this is a race condition during shutdown, which may
yield better to analysis with serial port attached.  The 11.3.x builds
maintain a getty and shell on the serial port, if I recall correctly,
and this may still be responsive at the time of the hang.  Using that
shell it may be possible to find what processes are happening.  If
that shell isn't available, try adding it.

As to what is causing the different timing between different laptops,
I predict that this is dependent on microSD card performance
variation.  These cards contain a FLASH translation layer that
processes SD commands and manages the remapping from virtual blocks to
physical cells.  Their performance can vary.

I did consider the possibility of power cycling timing during
fs-update, but in the XO-1.5 units you have the microSD power is
managed by the embedded controller.  The SD card is power cycled by
Open Firmware, but not the microSD card.

Another thing you might try is run a microSD card in an SD card
adapter, see if there is a difference.

#1323 needs a pointer to your earlier work on #1033.  I found it in
mail, but I shouldn't have had to.  ;-}

Passphrase must be re-entered when XO loses then regains wifi connection

2012-06-14 Thread Anish Mangal
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

The issue of sugar prompting users to enter wifi passphrase after a
connection is broken and is re-established[1] has been in Sugar/OLPC
for some time.

The purpose of this email is to understand the causes of this:
* Bad wireless access point
* Proximity to a wireless access point
* Something not working properly on the XO laptop
** Driver?
** Firmware?
** Something sugar specific?

Talking with deployments, this is an annoying little bugger, because
everytime it happens, the teacher has to run over to the kid's laptop
and enter the passphrase. We are getting some reports that this flakey
*might* be happening more often with dx3 (and following from that
11.3.x) builds.

Therefore I'd like to understand the causes of this and what can be
done to address it (at various levels: XO, Sugar, Wireless Access Points)

Re: Passphrase must be re-entered when XO loses then regains wifi connection

2012-06-14 Thread James Cameron
Sridhar begins in the bug report by saying that the repeated prompt
for the WPA passphrase is due to losing connection.  Is there other
evidence, other than the repeated passphrase prompt, to suggest that a
connection was lost?  If so, what connection is it that is lost?

When I last looked at this problem, Sugar was being asked by Network
Manager for the passphrase, and Sugar was immediately prompting the
user.

Offhand I don't know what version of Sugar you are planning to ship
with your target version for 12.2, so I didn't bother digging into the
Sugar network model and view code for your version.

But master in git has a SecretAgent in model/network.py that registers
itself with NetworkManager as an agent that can provide passphrases to
NetworkManager.  The SecretAgent does not cache the passphrase, but
instead delegates to __secrets_request_cb and WPAKeyDialog which then
prompts the user.

Perhaps the GNOME equivalent does cache?  I don't know.  It is worth a
test, don't you think?  Look at how they do it.

The problem with caching is that if the passphrase changes, the agent
would somehow have to recognise that the passphrase it had was no
longer valid.  I seem to recall work that was done in that area within
the last few years, possibly relating to inability to connect to an
access point after the passphrase had been changed.

It may be wasteful to speculate further.  You need to determine from
logs what components (NetworkManager, Sugar, driver, firmware) are
causing the symptom.  If you don't have good logs, work to get them.

 When I last looked at this problem, Sugar was being asked by Network

I faked the loss of connection by powering down the AP until the loss
was recorded by NM in /var/log/messages and powering the AP back up.
Sugar did prompt for the passphrase, which is already recorded in
~/.sugar/default/nm/connections.cfg, so sugar is not re-reading its
config file before prompting the user for input. If you were to cancel
the dialog box for the passphrase and reselect the AP you are NOT
prompted for the passphrase and the connection is re-established. I'll
post /var/log/messages|wpa_supplicant.log from this test in the issue. 

 Offhand I don't know what version of Sugar you are planning to ship

Dextrose 3, based on sugar 0.94.

 NetworkManager.  The SecretAgent does not cache the passphrase, but

I think WPAKeyDialog should check if a secret is already recorded in
connections.cfg for the AP in question before prompting the user.

Think Discard network history in network-control-panel would be needed
to be used to erase the old passphrase, forcing a prompt to the user for
new input.

Dear OLPC hackers,

I read the underclocking information on the custom bootloader page¹
und wondered how to achieve the same with the 1.75. I read in the
hardware specifications, that the processor should be able to go down
to ~400 MĤz, and I’d like to get it down as far as possible.

Can I adapt the commands to achieve that?

More specifically: How can I get the XO 1.75 to run at the lowest

Any help is much appreciated!

No.

Ensure you are on Q4D16 (or later).

Type pj4-100mhz to run the core at the lowest CPU speed allowed by
Open Firmware.  This configures the core to use the main PLL (800MHz)
with a by-eight divider.

Other configurations include pj4-200mhz , pj4-400mhz , and pj4-800mhz .

Type .fuses and press enter to see the maximum certified operating
frequency set in the CPU by the manufacturer Marvell.

To make a change permanent, edit the olpc.fth file in the boot
directory of the first partition of the internal storage, and add the
line after the first line.

I'm not sure about Linux suspend and resume.  I suspect kernel support
is needed.

As for Bus speed, what bus are you talking about?

http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/openfirmware/browser/cpu/arm/mmp2/clocks.fth
is the source code in Open Firmware for the clock frequency change
functions.

To display the currently configured speed, type .cpu-speed and press
enter.  This is also shown by banner .

XO-1 update to 885

2012-06-14 Thread Yioryos Asprobounitis
With the opportunity of  12.1.0/os14 update in the one of my XO-1s, I also 
tried to update my F14 XO-1 to 11.3.1/os885 but I get `can not download update 
contents'
Indeed rsync://updates.laptop.org/ does not list build-885. Actually the only 
885 build there is the for the XO-1.75.
Gave it some time in case it pulls it after the request, but no result :-/

It pulls in at time of request, but you have to make the right request.

(I would not use online update with an XO-1 because the amount of
effort to make free space exceeds the time it would take to download
an installation kit.  But, please do test it if you can, and report
your results.)

You said you used updates.laptop.org via rsync to test for the
presence of a build.  updates.laptop.org uses rsync but is not an
ordinary rsync server ... while you can use the displayed list as
evidence of a build existing, you can't use the list as evidence of a
build missing.  This is because when a name is presented, it looks for
the build in another place.  You aren't shown that other place.

Given that the existing name for XO-1.75 is build-candidate_xo1.75-885
it is likely that the correct name for XO-1 would be
build-candidate_xo1-885 ... I've tried this, and got a suitably long
delay while the updates.laptop.org server unpacked the build, and the
response looks good.

So please try

sudo olpc-update candidate_xo1-885
