linux-modules-extra-2.6 override disparity

2008-06-23 Thread Debian Installer
There are disparities between your recently accepted upload and the
override file for the following file(s):

eeepc-acpi-modules-2.6-686_2.6.25-4_i386.deb: package says section is admin, 
override says misc.

Either the package or the override file is incorrect.  If you think
the override is correct and the package wrong please fix the package
so that this disparity is fixed in the next upload.  If you feel the
override is incorrect then please reply to this mail and explain why.
Please INCLUDE the list of packages as seen above, or we won't be able
to deal with your mail due to missing information.

    so near of release

 I'm still not sure about this one. Current support for ide-generic in D-I 
 and initramfs-tools is far from perfect and could still be considered a 
 regression from Etch. It could well be that ide-generic-pci fills an 
 important gap here. We really should discuss this with the kernel team.

Kernel Team, please give us some guidance on that. Should we use
ide-generic-pci or ide-generic?

   cdrom-core-modules: add ide-cd_mod.
   ide-modules: add ide-pnp.

 Some more explanation for these would be nice. Please remember that the 
 changelog is not only _what_ you do, but also _why_ you do it.

Looking again, I think we could skip ide-pnp. At least from the source
it looks to be ISA related and I think we doesn't need to include it
until we get complains about non-working systems.

Kernel Team, any guidance here too?

Thats should not give any regressions. It coexists fine with vesafb and
radeonfb on my boxes.
1. It's a module, so users will have to load it themself.
2. It just prints an error until v86d[1] is installed.

2008-06-23 Thread maximilian attems
before jumping to strange conlcusions.
this looks very much like a dup.

did you set MODULES=dep *and* regenerated the initramfs with
update-initramfs -u -k kernelversion
*and* tried to boot that.

that shouldn't be needed, did you try booting with rootdelay=X ?

it is klibc mount that wants a -t invocation on mounting an fs.

I forgot to mention : If I switch to either screen completely (crt=on +
lvds=off OR crt=off + lvds=on), the problem doesn't occurs !

I have tried xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.3.2-1 , but it didn't help.

I have tried to remove libgl1-mesa-dri , but it didn't help.

I applied that patch given in this bugreport and recompiled the Debian
packges. It seems that this successfully solved my problem as well as
I'm using the kernel for about one day now without a problem.

Re: Bug#385553: linux-modules-extra-2.6: ndiswrapper requires rules target override

 There is nothing accidentally.

ndiswrapper loader.c:
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE = KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,10)
add_taint(TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE);
/* older kernels don't seem to have a way to set
 * tainted information */
#endif

Seems it does try to do the taint itself when needed.  That also matches
what I understood from the lkml discussions on the issue.  And nothing
prevents ndiswrapper from changing its name which makes that in kernel
check fail.

Also the comment in the kernel clearly says (as you even included
yourself):
/*
 * ndiswrapper is under GPL by itself, but loads proprietary modules.
 * Don't use add_taint_module(), as it would prevent ndiswrapper from
 * using GPL-only symbols it needs.
 */

So that seems to indicate the kernel has no problem with ndiswrapper
using GPL-only symbols, so ndiswrapper itself must be GPL and hence
free.

Bug#487725: linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64: Got much trouble and message 'ehci_hcd: HC died' when scanning image from 'Canon PIXMA MP150'.

2008-06-23 Thread Valentin QUEQUET
Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.25-5
Severity: normal


Hello, all.

While scanning (with SANE) a document from my 'Canon PIXMA MP150' 
scanner/printer combo, I stumbled upon a grave problem.

I discovered that my configuration - out-of-the-box up-to-date lenny - was 
using module 'ehci_hcd' (possibly amongst others) to dialog with my scanner.

And I discovered that there was some activity on IRQ_7, which was 'listened-to' 
by module 'ehci_hcd', when I queried scanner list typing:
scanimage -L
and when I put my scanner ON or OFF.

I was able to query this list 3 times without a problem ; this step did no hurt.

But a grave problem suddenly arose when I typed:
scanimage -T
which is a scanner/communication test which consist in scanning a full line - 
equivalent to effectively scanning a small part of the document.

Not only the test failed, but 3 more very bad things happened:
  - I got alarming messages on console (and in 'dmesg' below) : ehci_hdc: ... 
HC died, and kernel said it would forget about IRQ_7 (which 'ehci_hcd' was 
'listening-to' earlier).
  - I became unable to query the list of scanners anymore : the scanner ceased 
to respond.
  - The kernel no longer notified (eg on console) when I put my scanner OFF, 
ON, and OFF again.

Fortunately, I discovered that in this situation, I had just to unload module 
'ehci_hcd' to get my scanner+SANE functional (including scanner power ON/OFF 
notifications).

But a few points draw my attention:

I retried this scenario, implying scanner OFF, PC reboot, delay, scanner ON.

A few times the scenario showed to be exactly like I described above.

While the other times, symptoms of the bug (alarming messages + unability to 
communicate with the scanner) happened merely whenever I chose to put my 
scanner OFF (alarm) and ON (no comm.) instead of doing the scanner test (via 
scanimage -T).

Again, unloading module 'ehci_hcd' got my scanner+SANE functional.

I found very strange that IRQ_7 would just be used for some handchecking and 
not for the transfer phase.
But it's obvious: 'ehci_hcd', which was the sole user of IRQ_7, succeeded at 
handchecking and broke on scanning/transfer attempts.

So, when I unloaded 'ehci_hcd', the transfer phase likely falled back to some 
non-IRQ (polling) method.

I was sorry that my new Debian pre-packaged linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64 (ver 
2.6.25-5) made my scanning experience so tricky.

And I asked myself what it would have been if module 'echi_hcd' didn't broke. 
Would 'ehci_hcd' be usefull after all ?
Would IRQ_7 be used ? With many interruptions in scanning/transfer phase ? And 
would transfers get faster ?

So, I decided to repeat the whole thing with Debian pre-packaged 
linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64 (ver 2.6.24-7).
You can't believe it ! Scanning (scanner+SANE) functioned right out of the box, 
without having root to unload module 'ehci_hcd' (it was effectively loaded).

And I was witnessing an intensive use of IRQ_7 by module 'ehci_hcd' ; transfers 
were similar than with 2.6.25 : certainly no far from perfect.

And whenever I put my scanner ON or OFF, I got the matching notifications on 
console and in dmesg.

And whenever I wanted to scan some paper, all was good and perfect.

To help you understand what happened, and in the case the piece of dmesg below 
would not be enough, I give you a pointer to my full dmesg log:
http://pagesperso-orange.fr/mandolosse/logs/2008-06-23__dmesg__ehci_hcd__died.txt

I also captured 'scanimage', 'lsmod' output and snapshots of '/proc/interrupts' 
at different times. I plan to scrutinize all this data, to comment the relevant 
parts and to post them later.

In hope my report will prove useful.

Sincerely,
Valentin QUEQUET

Bug#487721: linux-2.6: ipw2200 wrongly claims it can scan for hidden ESSIDs

2008-06-23 Thread Ben Hutchings
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.25-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Since I upgraded from Linux 2.6.24, NetworkManager cannot associate my
Intel wireless card, handled by the ipw2200 driver, with my AP, which
has a hidden SSID.

NetworkManager thinks that wpa_supplicant should be able to scan for
specific hidden SSIDs if the underlying driver advertises
IW_SCAN_CAPA_ESSID, which ipw2200 does since 2.6.25.  However, this
doesn't work.

I have confirmed that NetworkManager is interpreting this capability
flag correctly and checked that wpa_supplicant has the patch that I
was referred to - see the thread on linux-wireless
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/15560.
Therefore I believe the driver is at fault.

This should be fixable by removing the capability flag:

Bug#487421: Early boot-time kernel panic with linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64 (2.6.25-5).

2008-06-23 Thread Valentin QUEQUET

Hello, Maks and others.


before jumping to strange conlcusions.
this looks very much like a dup.

did you set MODULES=dep *and* regenerated the initramfs with
update-initramfs -u -k kernelversion
*and* tried to boot that.



You're right, Maks, i_DID a mistake !

I'm not even able to describe what I did, but when I looked-at my 
'MODULES=dep' - see 3) below - initrd I realized how ugly it was ; it 
really contained evil things ! Strangely enough, my 'customized-dep' - 
see 4) below - initrd version was completely fine !!!


If I didn't have made this mistake, I would have saved a few hours 
guessing which few modules I had to add to this base.


Now - a few dozens minutes ago - I've rebuilt my 4 different versions of 
initrd for linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64 (ver 2.6.25-5) :


  1) The default one (= Simply with MODULES=most)
  2) A custom gently stripped-down version of the previous one
  3) The 'dep' one (= Simply with MODULES=dep)
  4) A (now useless) custom slighlty enhanced version of the previous one

And LILO knows them all very well ;-)

I've tried them all in order:

  1) and 2) lead to an early kernel panic

  3) and 4) are all fine wrt all one can expect from an initrd.

Now, that matter boils down to tree cases:

  1) Linux has a problem with large initrd files.
  2) LILO has a problem with large initrd files.
  3) BOTH have a problem with large initrd files.

I know a snake who bites its tail ...

And now let's see my initrd sizes:

1) 7275892 bytes
2) 5738810 bytes
3) 3485038 bytes
4) 3686321 bytes

Note: vmlinuz is 1727488 bytes

But I can boot linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64 (ver 2.6.24-7) without any 
problem and using an initrd of 7090895 bytes, and vmlinuz is 1668248 bytes.


So, why had I an early kernel panic with version 2) (see above) of my 
initrd for linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64 (ver 2.6.25-5) which is smaller ?


In hope my report will prove useful.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Valentin QUEQUET

There is a widely-reported problem with the r8169 driver in certain
configurations. Auto-link detection does not work, and while the device
comes up it can't connect and the physical link light on the device
turns off during the bootup process (maybe when the r8169 module is
loaded).  


have you tried newer linux images based on 2.6.26-rcX ?
see apt trunk lines http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel

if you can reproduce there please report upstream on bugzilla.kernel.org
and marc the bug as forwarded to this one.


Works perfectly with 2.6.26-rc5. Thanks!

Bug#276500: #276500: utimensat added as syscall

2008-06-23 Thread Eric Blake

For what it's worth, coreutils 6.12 and newer now use utimensat if
available; and when coupled with a new enough kernel, no longer
demonstrate the original issue reported against touch(1).  However, in
testing the coreutils patch to use utimensat, it was discovered that at
least some versions of the kernel have a buggy utimensat syscall that
return a bogus positive number instead of -1 on failure:
