mouseemu in need of a new maintainer
Hi, My iBook G4 died an horrible death - it's been showered by a leak in the roof, basically - and won't start after drying. As I won't be able to buy another one, I probably won't be able to hack on mouseemu either for a while. If anyone wants to take maintainership, he's welcome to do so. Concerning therm_adt746x, I guess I can continue to maintain it, as it's relatively bug-free and won't evolve to support new thermal chips.

this patch shows the correct locations of the heat sensors present in

It applies on top of the precedent patch that is in your tree (Make
sure therm_adt746x only handles known hardware)

Hmm, take this one instead, it fixes an issue if the hwsensor-location

[PATCH] pmac: save master volume on sleep
Hi,
Ben's patch that shutdowns master switch and restores it after
resume (pmac: Improve sleep code of tumbler driver) isn't enough here
on an iBook (snapper chip).
The master switch is correctly saved and restored, but somehow
tumbler_put_master_volume() gets called just after
tumbler_set_master_volume() and sets mix-master_vol[*] to 0. So, on
resuming, the master switch is reenabled, but the volume is set to 0.
Here's a patch that also saves and restores master_vol.
Jaroslav, I'm pushing it to you because Takashi's on holidays; the
patch has been acked by Takashi and Benjamin.
Thanks,

2.6.12-rc3 cpufreq compile error on ppc32
Hi guys,
One of Ben's patches (ppc32: Fix cpufreq problems) went in 2.6.12-
rc3, but it depended on another patch that's still in -mm only:
add-suspend-method-to-cpufreq-core.patch
In addition to this, there's a third patch in -mm that fixes warnings
and line length to the previous patch, but it doesn't apply cleanly
anymore. It's named add-suspend-method-to-cpufreq-core-warning-fix.patch
Here's an updated version. HTH,

[PATCH 2.6.12-rc3] pmac: save master volume on sleep
Hi,
Ben's patch that shutdowns master switch and restores it after
resume (pmac: Improve sleep code of tumbler driver) isn't enough here
on an iBook (snapper chip).
The master switch is correctly saved and restored, but somehow
tumbler_put_master_volume() gets called just after
tumbler_set_master_volume() and sets mix-master_vol[*] to 0. So, on
resuming, the master switch is reenabled, but the volume is set to 0.
Here's a patch that also saves and restores master_vol.

To my understanding, such issues have been around for some time now, although recent kernels have tossed monkey wrenches into several other cases that previously worked just fine. (Ergo those nyet-merged patches...) For example, plugging or unplugging devices during sleep results in oopses at resume; and one time out of two, the USB ports are unpowered on resume (because the registers think they are, and linux doesn't repower them. but they're not). Both of these issues have patches available, patches that can be found there for example: http://colino.net/ibookg4/usb-ohci-fixes.patch http://colino.net/ibookg4/usb-ehci-power.patch What kind of work on these is needed so that they get in? Briefly, given 2.6.12-rc2 plus the patches mentioned above, find out what else is needed. * The first of them is Paul's patch, and I never got a response to the questions I asked him about it. - 2.6.12-rc2 does have the fix to check for HC_STATE_QUIESCING, which should supplant the need for a new suspending quirk. - And the first of those patches waiting merge does update the handling of IRQs in the PCI-to-USB glue. - So the main change from that patch which is unresolved is moving the PMAC-specific stuff up from the OHCI code into into the the usb/core/hcd-pci code. Presumably you could do that? I assume that it really is needed at that layer, though it'll only relate to OHCI cells on Apple ASICs. * As for the second, that looks to be a hardware-specfic issue that just wouldn't reproduce with the controllers I was using for PM testing. What I'll do is wrap up an equivalent fix with some related EHCI updates for power switching, post that, and ask you to verify that it works (probably simplest to do that with OHCI non-modular and not loaded). How's that sound? Nice :) Ok, here are the results of my tests with 2.6.12-rc2 and the patches you sent me applied: - plug USB device, sleep, unplug USB device, resume: no more oops - sleep, plug in USB device: no oops, but it wakes the laptop up for a few seconds; then, it goes back to sleep. No oops on second resume. I can live with that :) - once out of two resumes, resume leaves the ports unpowered; so I still need my usb-ehci-power.patch that re-powers ports unconditionnaly. -- Colin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi,
This patch is self-evidently incorrect: by definition, a suspended
port maintains VBUS power. Otherwise the device connected to the
port will get disconnected, rather than suspended ... and it won't
be able to issue wakeup events. All suspending does is stop sending
USB traffic down the port, notably SOF tokens; the device connected
to the port then enters a low power mode, typically consuming at most
500uA from VBUS (vs typically 100mA when it's active/configured).
Another idea. Is it harmful to re-power already powered ports? For

Hi list,
Most of us have problems with USB unresponsive after one out of two
wakeups. This patch fixes it for me; it looks like the port status
isn't automatically updated (to ~PORT_POWER) when sleeping...
So this patch just unpowers the ports manually at the end of ehci_suspend.
I don't know if it's really correct: Ben Greg, I'd like your comments. if
it's fine, can you push it upstream?

Hi Ben, First, happy new year :) I hope your holidays were fine. Do you still plan on including the sleep patch in 2.6.11? I came across a problem, but it is quite hard to trace and reproduce, because it only happened twice (in a few dozens sleep/resumes): the keyboard wouldn't respond after a resume.
