Bug#1051367: More versions

2023-10-11 Thread Marcin Owsiany
found 5.10.197-1
thanks

Yesterday I installed and tested a dozen or so kernel images from
snapshot.debian.org starting with 5.10.197-1 and ending with
6.4.4-3~bpo12+1. Unfortunately I was able to reproduce the issue on every
single one of them, although with older versions it usually takes around 10
executions of `xset dpms force off`, while on 6.x kernels it usually
freezes on the first attempt.

One thing I noticed is that most of the time, regardless of kernel version,
if I hit the keyboard within the first second of the screen going black,
then the screen lights up again and the system does not freeze.

This issue might after all be a sign of a hardware issue - sometimes
Windows that I dual-boot to seems to be similarly hung. I also used to have
weird freezes at early boot time. That problem disappeared initially - when
a device was plugged into a USB port, and later - seemingly without reason
- disappeared altogether.

However I'll keep the bug open in case some kind soul decides to share a
way to work around this.

Unfortunately it's not fixed. Looks like the probability of a freeze is
just lower :-(

Turns out this issue is already fixed in the 6.4.4-3~bpo12+1 version
available in bookworm-backports \o/


Bug#1051367: Acknowledgement (regression: powersave screen blank causes system freeze after upgrade to Debian 12)

2023-09-07 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Today I switched to an Xorg-based GNOME session, and found out that
invoking `xset dpms force off` also results in the system freezing.
Interestingly, the system was responsive via ssh for another couple seconds
or so.

So I think this regression must be related to the kernel version change
more than anything else. Reassigning the bug.

Again, I'd be more than happy to do whatever is needed to investigate this
deeper. The only idea comes to mind is to try and bisect the kernel history
between 5.10.179-2 and 6.1.38-4, but I'm not sure how feasible it is these
days (it's been almost two decades since I last built my own kernel package
and don't know what config to use between these two versions).


Bug#928121: [i915] *ERROR* rcs0: reset request timeout; intel_do_flush_locked failed: Input/output error

2019-04-28 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Package: src:linux
Version: 4.19.16-1~bpo9+1
Severity: important

Every couple of weeks or so my laptop experiences some graphics-related crash.

As you can see from the log below, sometimes there is just a single "Resetting
rcs0 for hang on rcs0" from which it recovers, while at other times it is
followed by "reset request timeout", together with an X server crash.

At that point, systemd tries to restart the X server, but it never succeeds,
each time /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session reports: "intel_do_flush_locked failed: 
Input/output error".
The only thing that helps at that point is a reboot.

All I'm running is GNOME, Firefox, Google chrome and Zoom (a proprietary video
conferencing program, though during the last couple of crashes it was just
running in background, not really displaying anything).

A possibly important detail is that I have an external DELL U2717D monitor
attached over DisplayPort in addition to the built-in display.

This is a backport linux package, but apparently the next Debian release will
use basically the same kernel version. I'm a little worried this unhapiness
will continue for a while :-(

Please do let me know whether I can do anything to help debug this.

2018-03-28 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Thank you for the contact, Ben. I will follow up with them.
FWIW, this patch does not even seem to work properly. While it does change
the max supported size reported by xrandr, trying to use the space just
results in an error.

The i915 driver needs the following patch to allow the actually
supported X screen size of more recent chips. Currently one gets:

 $ xrandr --fb 8960x2880
 xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 8192x8192 (desired size 8960x2880)

This made it difficult to set up WPA-based networking, as the error message

I'm assuming you mean the 'aes' kernel module? Could you be a bit more
specific? Filename, package name, perhaps an udeb name if there is one?

  I'm assuming you mean the 'aes' kernel module? Could you be a bit more
  specific? Filename, package name, perhaps an udeb name if there is one?
 
 aes.ko in the kernel image package for the kernel you're using.

I cannot find such file:
http://packages.debian.org/search?suite=sidarch=i386mode=pathsearchon=contentskeywords=aes.ko

Could it be that it's normally built in? Or that the package search is
broken/stale?

Indeed, loading aes_generic before running wpa_supplicant made it work
just fine!  Does it make sense to file a bug against wpasupplicant
asking for this to be turned into a more meaningful error message?

As for the card driver, it seems to work much better in 2.6.30, I was
able to achieve sustained 7Mbps transfer which I think was as much as I
ever managed to achieve on this network.

I guess this bug can be closed.

 No, the kernel is returning the wrong error code.

Ouch. How about a bug report against the kernel, then?

 You might consider filing a bug against debian-installer to request that
 aes_generic (and any other crypto modules possibly needed for WPA) be
 included.

They are included, in the sense that a crypto-modules udeb is made
available for selection when loading components. I'm sure that they
would be auto-installed if a wpasupplicant udeb was made available, but
without one it does not make sense to install them by default.

 Has this been fixed in later kernels like the 2.6.30 from unstable or
 backports.org? There have been many changes since the Lenny kernel.

I could try if there is a live CD that would let me test it. I'd rather
not reinstall with unstable/testing since this machine needs to stay
stable.

2009-02-19 Thread Marcin Owsiany
I just wiped my etch installation and replaced it with a fresh lenny
installation. The installer auto-detected my wifi card and used the
rt2500pci driver.

By default it achieves:
 - 1Mbps rate (as reported by iwconfig - I can only download at max.
   ~20KBps)
 - approx 50% link quality

When I manually set it to rate 11M, the reported bit rate goes to 11M,
the real download speed improves by about 50% and the link quality
goes to about 70%, but it's still a far cry from what the card can
achieve.

It works just fine using ndiswrapper...

had to do it was, like, 4 years ago! :-)

Bug#418757: information about aacraid missing from /proc

2007-04-11 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12
Tags: patch

Looks like change of behavior of newer GCCs triggered a bug which causes
the /proc/scsi/aacraid directory tree (which I understand contains
information useful to array monitoring) not to appear.

Please see the following link for an explanation and a patch.

http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-poweredge/2007-January/029281.html

I wonder if this could still make it into etch with the other fixes for
kernel that were mentioned.

Wrong libc6 recommendation by -xen kernel?

2006-05-06 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Hi,

linux-image-2.6.16-1-xen-686 2.6.16-12 recommends libc6-i686, while
there is a special (nosegneg) libc6-xen available, which conflicts with
the -i686 one.

Is the recommendation by kernel package a mistake, or has libc6-i686
been made xen-friendly?

Bug#311820: ioctl(fd, SIOCGMIIPHY,...) causes hard freeze before first ifconfig up

2005-06-03 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Package: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-686
Version: 2.6.11-5
Severity: normal

I was experimenting with ifupdown's mapping feature to autodetect the
network my laptop is connected currently before bringing the interface
up, and have found the following problem:

Invoking mii-tool eth0 before the first ifconfig eth0 up run causes
the system to freeze (HW reset required). It also seems that if I skip
the mii-tool eth0 on bootup, it freezes later when starting up exim4,
although I did not investigate that exim4 case.

Stracing mii-tool revealed that the system freezes during the ioctl
call:

socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 3
ioctl(3, SIOCGMIIREG, 

the call never returns.

However bringing the interface up before, makes mii-tool run OK. Also
bringing it up and down again makes mii-tool run OK. It looks like
something gets initialized in the kernel only on ifconfig up, and
running mii-tool before that makes the system go into some kind of
infinite loop.

I'm using Broadcom 4400 10/100BaseT NIC on HP/Compaq nx6110
I'll submit a dmesg and othe stuff as a followup once I get this laptop
online. (I'm submitting this bug from a different machine).

Bug#310931: kacpid hogs CPU on HP/Compaq nx6110

2005-05-26 Thread Marcin Owsiany
Package: kernel-image-2.6.11-1-686
Version: 2.6.11-5
Severity: normal

Shortly (it's hard to measure, but seems a few seconds) after applying
some load on the system (like find / -type f|xargs cat|gzip -c|gzip
-dc|gzip -c  /dev/null), the kacpid thread alone suddenly starts using
99.9% CPU (as shown by top), causing the whole system to become very
slow and seriously decreasing its responsiveness.

Sometimes even the load generated by system boot is sufficient, and
kacpid starts to hog the CPU during bootup, which makes it very slow.

Killing the load-generating task does not cause kacpid to release the
CPU (I waited over half an hour).

Specifying acpi=off eliminates the problem, but obviously is not a
solution, since the machine does not seem to provide APM interface
(modprobing apm says no such device or address), so I'm not even able
to monitor battery status. :-/

Attached: a dmesg dump (though no messages are generated when kacpid
goes crazy).

Google returns some similar cases on kacpid cpu, but finds no fix.  I
would happily help with debugging this problem, since I'm not using this
computer intensively. Just give me some suggestions / instructions /
pointers / references  :-)

regards,

Marcin
