echo 0 >/sys/class/net/eth0/lbs_mesh

as per

Not sure what it does exactly but the msh0 interface is gone and the 
wireless led does not randomly blink when in suspend mode (laptop closed).

Good trick.  It's downloading now.

I had a USB serial port (GPS) plugged in.

For build 301 we've disabled pretty boot so the next time you see this
you'll be able to provide more useful information about the crash.
Please test it!

Also, on this machine are you using any external peripherals?

Re: USB2VGA adapters on XO-1.5 (and XO-1 with F11 images)

The driver ignored my setting AccelMethod to XAA. It did get the hint
with NoAccel, but that hasn't solved the crash. It just takes less
time to crash.

> What acceleration mode are you using for the SisUSB adapter?

I don't think it does any kind of acceleration.

It's an optional (but cool) feature. Not a blocker in my book.

We're hurting a lot more on the rotation side. Speaking of which, ISTR
you had a patch that kind of worked but was showing artifacts. Is that
anywhere I can find?

cheers,

My gut instinct is that EXA and Xinerama are not playing well
together.  Xinerama has been deprecated and replaced with RandR, much
like XAA is supposed to be replaced with EXA.  XAA and Xinerama are
both from about the same era of Xorg legacy and a bit more compatible
with each other.

What acceleration mode are you using for the SisUSB adapter?  This
might also be a problem with using EXA and XAA for different drivers.
In your log SisUSB doesn't get to the point where it spits out the
options that are initialized.  I can take a quick look at the sisusb
driver to see what it is doing if it will help.

This ticket tracks the status of this feature (currently working great
on xo-1.5)
http://dev.laptop.org/attachment/ticket/10210/

Trying this out on an XO-1 / F11 system leads to a segfault (sample
config file and logs of the fault in the ticket).

I suspect that the Geode driver may not be a good friend of Xinerama.

Trac#10232: WiFi dies on suspended XO-1, os300

2010-07-14 Thread Hal Murray
A simple edit makes suspend/wakeup from WiFi work on XO-1 running os300.   So 
I've been testing it.  It works most of the time, but occasionally stops 
waking up from WiFi.  Wakeup from touchpad works fine.

I just submitted
 http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10232
Text below.

I've got a stuck case in front of me.  Is there anything I should type at it 
to collect more info before I reboot?

---

 http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10207 has the recipe to make suspend work on
 XO-1.
 (delete the "a" from "ethtool -s eth0 wol ua" in /usr/sbin/powerd)

 So I've been testing it.

 It works most of the time, but occasionally wakeup from WiFi stops
 working.

 I know about wakeup on arp not working.  I can work around that by
 hardwiring that slot into the arp cache on my PC.

 I saw it stop working a couple times a few days ago.  I think the WiFi LED
 was still on, but I'm not sure.  I'm pretty sure it recovered when I poked
 the touchpad.  This would match arp not working, but I had the cache
 setup...  Mumble.  Both times happened while I was ssh-ed in.


 I've got a stuck case right now.  That was after working fine
 for several days of light traffic.  (I'm running a fake ntpd server so I
 can monitor the clock.  So it's the XO is seeing the UDP equivalent of a
 ping every 5 minutes from two sources.)

 The WiFi LED is off.  It blinks when I wake it up by poking the touchpad,
 but the LED stays off and ping doesn't work.

 ifconfig says eth0 and msh0 are up.  I've grabbed a copy of
 /var/log/messages but I don't see anything interesting in there.
