[Bug 852923] Re: gnome-raw-thumbnailer doesn't do anything

2011-10-26 Thread Andrew Waldram
This work around may not work for some cameras as gnome-raw-thumbnailer
is not in active development and has not been updated in years.

People wishing to use ufraw for thumbnail duties should amend the exec
line to read

The genuine  fix is all package maintainers repackage all Ubuntu raw

thumbnails.

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-11-02 Thread Andrew Waldram
Konstaninos and TG Browning

I'm guessing by MMS you mean Memmory Stick as there is no such card as
MMS.

This is not the same bug, Memory sticks are not yet supported by this
driver

A quick search on the tifm home page shows
Currently in development: 

tifm_ms - driver for MemoryStick cards (beta). This driver is not very useful 
without higher level MemoryStick protocol drivers. These are found in the same 
svn repository. Their current status: 
memstick - card identification driver (beta) 
ms_block - legacy MemoryStick storage support (alpha) 
mspro_block - MemoryStick Pro storage support (beta, has some problems) 
Early stages of development: 


So the fact that the memmory stick is detected shows the driver is working to 
its present limit.

If you had read through this bug report you would also have found that I
have mentioned REPEATEDLY that this drive only supports SD cards at
present.

If you want Memmory Stick support I'd sugest you pop across to Belios's
(the developer) homepage and cross his palm with silver or donate a MS
card for testing.

2007-06-04 Thread Andrew Waldram
klmonz  :

My laptop has a distinct lack of Sata drives .

My point was the Great rename bug is the same for my Pata controler...

under kernel 15 my IDE was controlled via ata_piix and therefore
/dev/sdxx

under kernel 16 my IDE is controlled via piix and therefore /dev/hdxx

Yet Sitsofe who also tested a ICH6 chipset MB didn't get drive
renaming..so I assume his modules.pcimap output would still show
ata_piix assigned for his chipset id.

I agree that for me its not such an issue my Pata drive is still working
fine yet for Ubuntu's supposed target audience .. their screwed.

my response was to the original title of your bug '(ata_piix disabled
for ich4/5), where we had some discussion whether ICH6 variants were
also afflicted.

I don't want to be in the situation where everyone is switched back
except me ;-)

[Bug 117314] Re: latest kernel(2.6.20-16.28) update gives boot problems

2007-06-01 Thread Andrew Waldram
 Phillip Lougher

I can see your between a rock and a hard place ,

ICH6 appears to function correctly under either libata or PATA, Hence
the lack of bug reports (besides me) for this chipset.

I don't think it matters which way you go with this for this chipset as
I appear to be the only ICH6 person who noticed the drive renaming and
I'm not the screaming kind.

2 others noted the ghost cdrom for the fstab entries but dont think
that'd cause much fuss if you reverted back to libata.

What would be cool is actually knowing because if I'm staying PATA I'll
get hdparm out and ramp up my HD performance.

Also there appears a number of issues using UUID for swap , I came across it a 
while ago UUID altering on swap over time.
I also see a number of reports in the forums of people stating their swap 
changes UUID between boots.

Could it be the some hibernate methods clear the swap (ala mkswap) thus
generating new UUID's and leading to the resume issue on kernel
change.??

I wouldn't have seen this besides having changed my swap over to
physical drive number to keep my system functional across hibernations
(uswsusp) shortly after the introduction of UUID. Hence me noticing the
driver change (blank flashing cursor tends to focus attention)

[Bug 118199] UUID can change onswap breaking swap mount and Hibernation

2007-06-01 Thread Andrew Waldram
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

There appears to be a number of reported bugs that skirt round this issue
bug 103672 could be related

in a nutshell

normal linux maintenance activity can result in the UUID of the swap
partition altering this leads to various symptoms

such as

unable to enter hibernation (pc returns to password prompt)
unable to resume from hibernation
swap partition doesn't mount on boot
machine appears hung with flashing cursor

I have seen reports in the forum of swap UUID changing with reboots

The swap UUID can change
a) If you use uswsusp
b) If you install another Linux distribution (swap is often reformatted).
c) sharing swap windows/linux

It might be possible to do something about by making it recreate the
swap with the same UUID as it had before.

The logs you've requested will  show that I'm not using UUID for my swap as why 
would I when I know its broke.??

Note my system is configured to NOT exhibit this issue.(not using UUID
for swap)

I raised the Bug report so there was a place holder to correct this
behavior for other users who may not be as savvy as me and not know why
their swap wont mount any more. Fixing this will also  give you Folks a
break next time you swap ATA drivers mid release cycle

2007-05-31 Thread Andrew Waldram
 Sitsofe Wheeler

Hi, I've searched/cross checked the forum and at least 2 people with
ICH6 chipset state they DONOT have issues with the kernel.

One a dell410 is almost identical to my nc6120

This may be a red herring as if I hadn't done some previous messing with
suspend and scattered /dev/sda1's around multiple config files I
wouldn't have noticed anything (except ghost CDrom)  .

So probably a none messed around non upgraded feisty install without
sata drives does not show any problems on ICH6 even though under the
hood its gone native.

It makes no odds to me but a note in the changelog if they are going to
change us all back to libata might be nice in the next update.

I don't know what to have as my default options /dev/sda1 or /dev/hda1
talk about moving goal posts ;-)

yes i use uuid for my root drives

whereas unless you change the driver ( ;-) ) the physical

I got bit for about 3 hours trying to figure out why suspend wouldn't

note a distinct lack of ata_piix

so no cyclic argument ata_piix just doesn't get a look in

Though I think we may be seeing the results of a 'fix' for the Debian

It is not so much the Driver with an issue (its not loaded) but the

Ok I can't prove this as I went round the houses fixing up my system.

But I reckon if you have the message about resume file (after pressing

then simply press enter to continue boot.

once in x start a terminal window

and issue

sudo update-initramfs -u
and
sudu dpkg-reconfigure uswsusp (if you using this method for suspend) and select 
your swap device (now NOT /dev/sdxx

this should update the initrd with the correct UUID for the swap and
then reconfigure uswssusp in the initrd  to support it.

I think its more likley that any chipset that was using libata is
affected.

I've not seen any sata or libata (ata_piix) users who haven't had
issues.

[Bug 117314] Re: latest kernel(2.6.20-16.28) update gives boot problems

2007-05-29 Thread Andrew Waldram
Hi All,

If you are getting the hangs early in boot symptom, I think this is
related to a problem with resume.

On my system the boot process is attempting to resume a non existent
image and stops when it fails???.

You can check this for yourselves.

when system has stopped press ctrl alt F1 and read the message press
reurn to continue booting (system should boot normally).

It doesn't matter how you address the resume= via /dev/sd, /dev/hd or
UUID= the kernel still hangs at this point (probably because the boot
image references a non valid swap partition (probably sd).

I'll investigate further (guess its help yourselves again  after the
devs muck up) the silence is deafening.

2007-05-29 Thread Andrew Waldram
OK heres the hack to fix once you've established it is the resume issue
(see above)

all 3 locations must exist and be either UUID= or hd= (for ide) (I use
the physical (hda1) as UUID moves on swaps for me so example is for
/dev/hda1)

menu.lst
fstab
and /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume

ensure /boot/menu.lst  resume= entry is  resume= /dev/hda1
/etc/fstab is  /dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0
/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume is RESUME=/dev/hda1

then issue update-initramfs -u
and reboot


BIG FAT WARNING --- if you muck this up your system will not boot again...(for 
ex windows users this is more dangerous than messing with the registry)

2007-05-29 Thread Andrew Waldram
Sitsofe My system is now booting perfectly with 2.6.20-16.28 so I don't
think adding no-resume will affect it.

It was definatly the '/dev/sda1' in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume.
causing the 'hang with flashing cursor' which isnt really a hang its the
system waiting for acknoledgment behind the usplash.

Hance pressing ctrl alt F1 and enter gets the system booting.

All I've got to remember now is how I was hibernating (think I was using
a sofware solution) so I can modify it to use /hd not /sd , Is there any
plans to alter this again within a production Release as this seems
ludicrous to me , whats the dvelepment version for??.

2007-05-29 Thread Andrew Waldram
If you wish I can deliberatly bust my 2.6.20.-16.28 kernel to how it
was.

then try noresume, Though I'm not sure that'll fix it as it depends on
whether the noresume option is before the 'does image exist code'

I believe the initramfs kernel is functioning correctly

1 check if image exists
2 error partition not valid (/dev/sd1 in initranfs from conf file)
3 display error and await user input.

I think the problem is the use of UUID for swap partitions needs
rethinking as the UUID will alter with fairly usual manipulation of the
swap. this them breaks booting.

In my case its because I'd changed my initramfs to use /dev/sd1 but I'll
bet my last Dollar that in most cases its because users have run mkswap
which has changed their UUID .

2007-05-29 Thread Andrew Waldram
Ok pinned the last bit of the puzzle down my suspend
I'm using uswsusp so in /etc/uswsusp.conf I had /dev/sda1 (as that was the 
correct swap drive)

so when the new kernel installed the and the devices no longer matched
the initrd image no longer had uswsusp in it.

Therefore correcting uswsusp (/dev/hda1) got suspending working again
but of cause it wouldn't resume...

Dpkg-reconfigure uswsusp fixes initrd and now only 24 hours after the
latest upgrade my system is back to working.

my main concern is that the Devs will now 'fix' this latest drive naming
change and thus break my system yet again... at least I can fix it
quickly now...

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-04-23 Thread Andrew Waldram
The solution is in the preceding bug report.

to recap

1 The kernel supplied in feisty has BROKEN tifm modules 
2 TIFM modules or the set pci hack ONLY support SD cards NOT ms,sm or xd at 
this time
3 Unless Ubuntu supply corrected modules the only way to get this working is to 
follow the instructions in this thread (compile your own).

if you get end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0,...  then you you are 
running the buggy modules
if you get tifm_sd: disagrees about version of symbol tifm_register_driver 
you are running a bit of both ;-) (hint ...make clean, and rmmod)

Auto mounting is fixed its just the driver faulty, Fix the driver and
your set.

As  a plus the .8 driver is a lot less buggy than the .6 in edgy (dont
reboot the machine with the sd card in or you have the multiple sd cards
on the desktop )

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-04-14 Thread Andrew Waldram
OK guys lets be clear

If you have a TIFM reader that doesn't work with .7 tifm modules(
standard 2.6.20) then unless you have

A. compiled .8 following the instructions above
or
B. Switched over to the SDHCI module using the setpci command see above.

Then as you don't have a working driver for your card the fact that auto
mount is now fixed  is of no use to you as you have nothing to mount.

A quick check is run dmesg from a command prompt and see if your getting
io errors when card inserted if you are you need to do a or b above.

What would be nice is anyone using the setpci have to report if auto
mount is now working, it should be as the fix was in the mmc core stuff.

as far as I can see the only bug outstanding is that the stock tifm
modules are broken and should be replaced with the tifm developer fixed
version, Whether this should be done by the feisty developers I'm not
sure as really its an upstream bug (fixed in 2.6.21).

Maybe they'll take pity on you and do it .

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-04-14 Thread Andrew Waldram
I wasn't trying to get peoples backs up,

Just trying to explain that kernel 2.6.20 doesn't work at default with
some TIFM hardware.

This is a kernel/TIFM issue not feisty, Any packaged distro running this
kernel without patches will have this problem.

The sdhci module does work but to use this you have to switch the
hardware over to SD mode.

The feisty bug in the pci MMC readers (of which TIFM is one) were not
seen as host devices and hence hal would not mount  has been fixed.

Pau Marc Muñoz Torres my SD card works fine in Linux, I am capable of
fixing most/any issues with any Debian based distro and don't need to
try and help anybody else.

As far as windows XP goes maybe you should delete your Linux partition
and run the OS of you choice that your obviously so happy with, it is of
no concern to me.

Carlos if you dont want to re-compile the tifm modules heres how to
switch over to SD mode

from a command run

lspci

you will get a list of pci devices, look for the  Mass storage
controller texas instruments and note the number to the left

02:06.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller
02:06.1 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller
02:06.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host 
Controller
02:06.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated 
FlashMedia Controller


Issue the following command substituting your pci id where mine is

setpci -s 02:06.3 4c.b=0x02

now try inserting you sd card...
this needs to be done every reboot as its none persistant ... Note the is some 
confusing information out there about this in a nut shell

There are 2 drivers capable of driving this module 
SDHCI
and
TIFM_sd.TIFM_7xx1,TIFM_core

the tifm module are bust in the 2.6.20 kernel series

to use sdhci you have to switch the hardware mode over using setpci

NOTE as far as I can tell both drivers only support SD cards 100% sure
this is true for the tifm driver but cant find anything definitive about
the sdhci driver ..can't test myself as only have sd cards.

A reboot will undo the setpci.

What controller do you have??

I just did

rmmod tifm_sd
rmmod tifm_7xx1
rmmod tifm_core
setpci -s 02:06.3 4c.b=0x02
Inserted card here   sd auto mounted  and file browser opened
dmesg
[30776.012000] mmcblk0: mmc2:0001 SDMMC 508800KiB 
[30776.012000]  mmcblk0: p1
lsmod |grep mmc
mmc_block  13832  2 
mmc_core   26756  2 mmc_block,sdhci

So for me sdhci works fine ...

Have now proved ONLY SD cards will work with either driver (just plugged
a borrowed SM card in nothing diddly squat.)

So from  this I'm happy tifm is the way to go as work is under way for
XD and sony memory stick.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 53923 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/53923

I did not say that the feisty kernal did not support memory stick cards

I said the TIFM module doesn't (i.e the native driver for this reader)

As you seem unable todo any research (just looking at bug 53923) here is
the FACTS from the tifm developer

Driver is implemented using several modules:

tifm_core - serves as bus driver for the adapters and cards 
tifm_7xx1 - host adapter for the pci device in question 
tifm_sd - driver for MMC/SD cards (registers itself as mmc_host under kernel's 
mmc subsystem) 
Currently in development: 

tifm_ms - driver for MemoryStick cards (very early alpha; does not work) 
Pending implementation: 

tifm_xd - driver for xD/SmartMedia cards

NOTE the tifm_ms driver is not present in the kernel.

Hence my coment to try the sdhci Driver because I believe that does
support memmory sticks (Like you I haven't checked) but you need to
switch the TIFM readers mode using setPCI and sdhci does not work for
all TI hardware.

I checked the OP's logs and he is trying to use the TIFM module which
does not support memmory sticks SO no bug.

This gives more information on the 2 interface that TI flashmedia chips

I would try the setpci hack if I was you remove the tifm modules so
there is no confusion

rmmod tifm_sd
rmmod tifm_7xx1
rmmod tifm_core

Iformation on the sdhci driver is available here
http://mmc.drzeus.cx/wiki/Linux/Drivers/sdhci

It is included in Linux kernel 2.6.17 (since 2.6.17-rc1). In order for
it to work on my HP 6120 notebook, I require this command :

# lspci
02:09.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments 
PCI6411,6421,6611,6621,7411,7421,7611,7621 Cardbus Controller
02:09.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments PCI7411,7421,7611,7621 Firewire

02:09.3    Unknown mass storage controller: Texas Instruments

02:09.4 Class 0805: Texas Instruments 
PCI6411,6421,6611,6621,7411,7421,7611,7621 SD Host Controller


# setpci -s 02:09.3 4c.b=02 

This command _disables_ the SD support in TI's FlashMedia device,
which reverts control of the SD socket to the SD-Host Controller, for
which the above sdhci driver works.

 This will give you read/write access (albeit quite slow,  500 kB/s) to SD 
cards (and maybe MMC?) only. 
This will not work for Memory Stick, XD, or SM. 

The above seems to indicate that Memory Stick, XD, or SM wil not work
but was from a web site date June 06 so Ymmv.

If this is the case I would use the TIFM driver as its a SHxT load
faster and is also the one I'm pushing to get fixed for auto mounting

even though the information in this thread is ample to fix most/all problems.

the initial fix for this is to compile .8 of the tifm driver modules as
(stated by the tifm developer) the stock kernel modules are buggy.

unfortunately ubuntu kernel headers are missing protocol.h from
includes/linux/mmc also the kernel sources are too old to compile
against cleanly (2.6.20.4 Vs 2.6.20.6)

when this is fixed the SD card will still not mount as there is no
action from Hal for the event though the insertion  event is noted

LP 52923 has more details on this bug and also the issues with SDHCI
auto mounting

query how many 'medium' bugs reported for the same issue result in 1
critical bug ?? ;-)

at present count 12 bugs are about these issues.

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-04-10 Thread Andrew Waldram
OK as it seems to be DIY around here 12 bugs reported on this 6 months
no action.

It appears hal doesn't like the fact the card reader reports a non
removable device so ignores.

I've created a udev rule that force mounts the MMC devices, works to
will be mounted in /media/mmcblk0

unfortunately I'm crap at permissions tried
#mmc
KERNEL==mmcblk[0-9]*,  GROUP=plugdev, MODE=0666

in 40-permissions-rules but doesn't work folder is still owned by root

So If someone more oh fay with ubuntu  could sort that bit out we'd have
a auto mounting system not bad for 2 days messing about especially as
the first bug report on this is from October Last year.

If you want to play the mmc rule is attached just drop it in
/etc/udev/rules.d  permission it correctly root/root

and your TIFM card will mount on insertion , you wont be able to access
it as a standard user though as its permissioned for root




** Attachment added: udev rule to manualy mount mmcblk devices

2007-04-10 Thread Andrew Waldram
Add to that I'm an idiot

The udev permissions are fine on the device nodes created (i think)

My brute force method uses pmount as the root user so of cause the file
is created as root.

have to rethink this.

not  as clever as I thought.

don't think bitching between devs and users will get this fixed so let
me be the first to apologize for any abrasive literacy I've been
involved in .

2007-04-10 Thread Andrew Waldram
OK my quick and dirty fix just got a lot dirtier but is now working

create an executable file with the following in
-
#!/bin/sh

# Work-around for mmc card reader udev thinks none removable breaking
hal

sudo -u andy pmount /dev/mmcblk0p1
-

place somewhere sensible (I used /usr/local/bin/sdmount)

Replace andy with your user name.

edit 10-mmc.rule to call this (sdmount) instead of pmount and off you go
inserting card will result in disk device appearing on desktop.

WARNING I don't advise doing this unless you are confident messing with
system files as 1 slip could break your OS bad.

Also bear in mind when this is fixed your alterations may cause the fix
to fail.


PS you have been warned

[Bug 53923] Re: tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working

2007-04-09 Thread Andrew Waldram
appears to be a lot of rumours ans multiple bug reports  here but this
looks like the one for not auto mounting I'm not sure it is a tifm
module issue as HAL responds correctly on card insertion see below

I have rebuilt the tifm modules from

http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en...12/xx21_driver

to replace the hopelessly buggy stock 2.6.20 kernel

All is good and installing the card gives

[ 714.68] tifm_core: MMC/SD card detected in socket 0:3
[ 714.972000] mmcblk0: mmc3:0001 SDMMC 508800KiB
[ 714.972000] mmcblk0: p1

fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes
240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7752 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 250 1889968+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda2 251 7752 56715120 83 Linux

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 521 MB, 521011200 bytes
9 heads, 24 sectors/track, 4711 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 216 * 512 = 110592 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/mmcblk0p1 2 4712 508685+ 6 FAT16

so all is good manual mounting the card works a treat to but feisty will not 
automount on insertion
this is a retrograde for edgy as with the .6 drivers it worked.

I suspect this is a mmc problem as

lshal -m gives

Start monitoring devicelist:
-
pci_104c_8033_mmc_host added

on card insertion so why doesn't fiesty react to the hal event ??

2007-04-09 Thread Andrew Waldram
Ok for completeness I removed the tifm modules and switched over to the
sdhci module with

setpci -s 02:06.3 4c.b=0x02 (only for my laptop check lspci for yours)

inserting card gives

[ 8354.956000] mmcblk0: mmc2:0001 SDMMC 508800KiB

But Hal does not recognize card insertion at all  

But Manual mounting works fine.

Conclusion Both the sdhci AND tifm modules work BUT

1 with tifm modules hal events function but no auto mount, manual mount works 
2 with sdhci modules hal doesn't function, manual mount still works 

Hopefully this will clear up the confusion with the two different
drivers and these bugs can be traced prior to feisty

so I think there are 2 bugs but need someone smarter than me to say
which package they are in.

2007-04-09 Thread Andrew Waldram
The timeouts are a symptom of the stock module in 2.6.20

you need to recompile from the website i gave you.

todo that you need protocol.h this is missing from fiesty therefore if
you download the  sources from kernel.org then just copy protocol.h to
linux/mmc/protocol.h then the tifm module will compile and work.

if you dont want todo this then switch over to the sdhci module using
the setpci command (check the forum for description on how)

Sorry cant be more helpfull but this is a bug report not help forum.

All files except protocol.h are original and dated mar 20th 18:41 so don't know 
why mine compiles cleanly
maybe I have later source than you??
Or maybe i copied /mmc from the original source for 2.6.14.4 but dont remember 
doing that.

Still doesn't auto mount though ;-)

Your suggestion seems a sensible approach then feisty just needs the
auto mount working for tifm which as hal is picking up the event  guess
is just a gnome vfs or hal config file fix.

2007-04-09 Thread Andrew Waldram
Ah found what I did to get it to compile besides the protocol.h

rem'd out the max sector function in tifm_sd.c

//  mmc-max_blk_count = 2048;
//  mmc-max_hw_segs = mmc-max_blk_count;
mmc-max_hw_segs = 16;
//  mmc-max_blk_size = min(2048, PAGE_SIZE);
//  mmc-max_seg_size = mmc-max_blk_count * mmc-max_blk_size;
mmc-max_seg_size = 127 * 2048;

mmc-max_phys_segs = mmc-max_hw_segs;
//  mmc-max_sectors = 127 * mmc-max_phys_segs;

//  mmc-max_req_size = mmc-max_seg_size;


guess that was cheating ;-)

I Get the same issue, suspect it's related to the recent  patches.

I also get 'folderdisplay/inbox' instead of inbox whenever there are
unread messages.

This applies applies to all folders, this folderdisplay rubish is
displayed if any unread mail exists in the folder.

I've linked them together as it was the same update/patch that caused
it.
