[Bug 1872212] Re: grub-install: Operation not permitted

[Ben McCann]

I have the same issue on bare metal (Ryzen 3600 on B550 MB) and --no-
nvram also disables the error message by, presumably, *not* updating the
EFI boot entries in NVRAM.

This was a working install and efibootmgr looked reasonable after
attempting to upgrade grub-efi-amd64-signed:

[deneb:~]$ sudo efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: ,0002
Boot* ubuntu
Boot0002* Windows Boot Manager

However, and I can't explain this, the boot entries are duplicated after
rebooting (which, BTW, worked OK):

[deneb:~]$ sudo efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: ,0002,0003,0004
Boot* ubuntu
Boot0002* Windows Boot Manager
Boot0003* Windows Boot Manager
Boot0004* ubuntu

I would swear those duplicates weren't present even after running
efibootmgr *after* doing the grub-efi-amd64-signed upgrade. I can't
identify *when* they were installed unless somehow they were masked
until after I rebooted. In any case it seems *wrong* to have duplicate
entries for the *same* operating system.

Perhaps this is a clue? Maybe the grub update is trying to install *new*
entries when there are already entries present?

[Bug 1872212] Re: grub-install: Operation not permitted

[Ben McCann]

Me to. I upgraded all out-of-date packages and the grub-efi-amd64-signed
upgrade failed as shown above. This was an *upgrade* on bare metal (A
Ryzen 3600 on a B550 motherboard) that had been booting just fine prior
to this error. The '--no-nvram' work-around prevents the error but I
have no idea if UEFI has been configured correctly.

FWIW, the efibootmgr program displays rational looking EFI entries:

sudo efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: ,0002
Boot* ubuntu
Boot0002* Windows Boot Manager

and the grub update does install new (or at least touch) the files in
/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu.

I'm about to reboot this machine to see whether my home file server is
borked or not :-(

[Bug 1556602] Re: LVM in 16.04 cannot mount LVM Cached Volumes created in 15.10

[Ben McCann]

LVM caching enabled in Ubuntu 16.04 (or, to be completely honest, Linux
Mint 18) is also incompatible with the older caching implementation in
Linux Mint Debian Edition 2 (i.e. Debian Jessie). I hoped the following
procedure would create an LVM cache that works for both Jessie and
Xenial:

1) Under Jessie, remove the cache from the LVM volume.
2) Reboot into Xenial and add an LVM cache to the volume. (This works fine).
3) Reboot back to Jessie to use the LVM volume with caching created under 
Xenial.

My goal is to support dual boot between jessie and xenial with LVM
caching enabled on my data volumes.

This doesn't work. The LVM volume comes up a disabled or offline under
Jessie and there's no apparent way to bring it up without removing the
cache. (I can easily recreate this on my scratch/test machine in case
there's useful data to be gathered).

So, LVM caching between debian jessie and ubuntu xenial is neither
forward or backwards compatible.

[Bug 1556602] [NEW] LVM cannot mount LVM Cached Volumes from LMDE Betsy

[Ben McCann]

Public bug reported:

I'm test driving Ubuntu Mate Beta 1 (from USB) on a machine that uses
LVM caching. (I use some SSD to cache old hard drives). My LVM setup was
created with Linux Mint Debian Edition - Betsy release.

The system cannot mount these cached volumes due to the following error
reported by 'pvs':

ubuntu-mate@ubuntu-mate:~$ sudo pvs
  LV CacheArchive has invalid cache's feature flag.
  LV CacheArchive is missing cache policy name.
  Internal error: LV segments corrupted in CacheArchive.

I did a bit of googling and found a similar report for upgrades from
Fedora 21 to Fedora 23. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1282188.

I'll annotate this bug with the LVM version from my existing Debian
based configuration in a few minutes.

This is a show-stopper for me because I use LVM caching on both of my
PCs. It's a great way to marry a 256 GB SSD with a 2 TB hard drive. I
keep the OS and some key partitions on the SSD and then use the rest of
the SSD to cache the hard drive.

[Bug 1210104] Re: Intel FakeRAID *Regression* in Kubuntu 12.04 with Linux 3.2.0-51

[Ben McCann]

BTW, I had to add the 'mdadm -Ss --wait-clean' command to a KDE shutdown
script (instead of one of the normal system shutdown scripts under
/etc/init.d) because the shutdown scripts would not wait for this
command to complete. It takes long enough to '--wait-clean' that
something during shutdown would *kill* the mdadm command waiting for the
RAID to stop. That left the RAID in an unclean state hence forcing a
resync on the next reboot.

The KDE shutdown script doesn't have a timeout so it would let the mdadm
command run to completion.

Note that I do *not* keep my system on the RAID. Kubuntu and the Windows
C: drive are both on an SSD. The RAID array (of two 1 TB drives) is used
for /home and other user data file systems.

[Bug 1210104] Re: Intel FakeRAID *Regression* in Kubuntu 12.04 with Linux 3.2.0-51

[Ben McCann]

I found and fixed this problem and it has nothing to do with the kernel.

Intel RAID is *extremely* finicky and I remembered that it required two
tweaks to the initrd build process. I originally implemented those
tweaks in a couple of the MDADM 'hook' files under /usr/share. That was
my mistake. These MDADM hooks were overwritten sometime between the
installation of 3.2.0-49 and 3.2.0-51 on my PC. (I assume there was an
update to the mdadm package). Without my tweaks in
initrd.img-3.2.0-51-generic, the RAID won't start and, once that's
fixed, the RAID only starts in read-only mode.

I dug through the '/usr/sbin/mkinitramfs' script to see if there's a
better way to customize the construction of initrd and found that my
changes should have been implemented under /etc/udev/rules.d and /etc
/initramfs-tools/hooks. I've made those changes, re-ran update-
initramfs, and now 3.2.0-51 is working fine.

So, my bad. Thanks to the Ubuntu team for your help looking at this from
the perspective that it was a kernel regression.

P.S. I need to find a blog someplace to document all this. Intel RAID
can work, but it takes lots of customization.

[Bug 1210104] Re: Intel FakeRAID *Regression* in Kubuntu 12.04 with Linux 3.2.0-51

[Ben McCann]

The files that have to be customized or overridden by adding hooks under
/etc are:

  /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules
  /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/mdadm

so I think this is more of an MDADM issue instead of a generic
setup/config issue. But, that depends on which package actually owns
these files. (I didn't track that down).

That said, the 64-md-raid.rules file was changed by someone to fix
Ubuntu bug 1030292 to sort out some other issue and I found that I had
to partially *revert* that change to make Intel RAID work for me. So, if
we make Intel RAID work for me, then something else may break. Which is
preferable?

I'll try to get on help.ubuntu.com to write this up.

BTW, one of the nastiest issues with Intel RAID isn't getting it
started. Its getting it stopped correctly during a shut down. That was a
major PITA and I eventually had to hack the KDE (!!) shutdown scripts to
umount the file systems I have on RAID when I log out. So, I mount RAID
during KDM startup and unmount during KDM shutdown.

I couldn't find any other way issue the magic 'mdadm -Ss --wait-clean'
command required to cleanly stop the array so it wouldn't re-sync (re-
mirror) itself on the next reboot.

This is such a total hack that I wouldn't accept it into production
code. But, if there's a better way to force a command to be executed
during a shutdown and umount then I'd be happy to help trouble-shoot it.
I couldn't find a better method and I tried a number of different
approaches to changing the scripts under /etc to do this more cleanly
than hacking KDE startup and shutdown.

[Bug 1210104] Re: Intel FakeRAID *Regression* in Kubuntu 12.04 with Linux 3.2.0-51

[Ben McCann]

I can't test 3.2.46 because there are no amd64 packages available in
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2.46-precise. (There
were no Intel CPU packages at all). I did test 3.2.47 and 3.2.48 images
and *both* of them fail to detect my Intel fakeraid array.

I also looked into updating my BIOS, as suggested by penalvch, and I've
decided *not* to upgrade. Too many horror stories about broken systems
after doing the upgrade including really basic stuff like detecting
Nvidia video cards, overclock failures, higher CPU temps, etc.

I'm also concerned that a BIOS upgrade will wipe the Intel raid state
from the BIOS and hence force me to rebuild the array from scratch. I'd
rather not do that either.

The bug exists in the latest upstream kernel (v3.11-rc4-saucy). I see
identical behavior to the originally reported bug. MD fails to see my

[Ben McCann]

I'm reluctant to upgrade the BIOS on a PC that is otherwise working fine
but I agree that my BIOS is quite out of date. So, I'll probably upgrade
tomorrow. (Have to go to work now).

That said, I'm skeptical upgrading the BIOS would matter because Linux
3.2.0-49 works fine and 3.2.0-51 doesn't. Something changed in that
kernel update that broke intel fakeraid. One kernel works, one doesn't,
and the BIOS is the same for both.

If I was never able to get fake raid working then your suggestion would
make more sense to me but it was working *well* until 3.2.0-51 was
released. I have one big RAID 1 volume partitioned into multiple file
systems that works with both windows and Linux 3.2.0-49. Linux can even
see and access the windows NTFS partition that's on the fakeraid volume.

Can you point me to a patch or patches that upgrade 3.2.0-49 to
3.2.0-51? I'm moderately familar with the kernel, and the Intel
platform, so I may see a patch that is suspicious.

[Bug 1210104] [NEW] Intel FakeRAID *Regression* in Kubuntu 12.04 with Linux 3.2.0-51

[Ben McCann]

Public bug reported:

I have been using Intel FakeRAID on an Asus Z77 motherboard on Kubuntu
12.04 for months. I'm using the MDADM version and not DMRAID. It has
been working fine other than a couple minor issues with clean shutdowns
that I fixed by tweaking a couple of the scripts under /etc.

I upgraded to the latest Linux kernel (3.2.0-51) and my FakeRAID stopped
working, probably because auto-detection failed to see the RAID array.
Everything works fine with the previous kernel image, 3.2.0-49.

Here is /proc/mdstat with the 3.2.0-49 generic kernel image:

Personalities : [raid1] [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] 
[raid10] 
md126 : active raid1 sdb[1] sdc[0]
976758784 blocks super external:/md127/0 [2/2] [UU]

md127 : inactive sdb[1](S) sdc[0](S)
6306 blocks super external:imsm

The /proc/mdstat file is empty (other than listing personalities) in
3.2.0-51. Note that the sdb and sdc drives are recognized by 3.2.0-51,
and their partition tables look reasonable, so I don't see any issues
with 3.2.0-51 actually seeing the physical drives. The problem appears
to be that the MD driver doesn't detect the external RAID (aka 'imsm')
metadata created by Intel fakeraid.

Here's the additional data requested for new bug reports:

lsb_release -rd
Description:Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
Release:12.04

apt-cache policy linux-image-3.2.0-51-generic
linux-image-3.2.0-51-generic:

FWIW, here's the apt-cache data on the previous kernel where fakeraid
worked correctly:

apt-cache policy linux-image-3.2.0-49-generic
linux-image-3.2.0-49-generic:
  Installed: 3.2.0-49.75

Packages

I will attach the kernel.log for booting 3.2.0-49 and 3.2.0-51. I've
looked at them and all I see is that 3.2.0-49 'binds' the RAID array
components and 3.2.0-51 doesn't. Here's a snippet from 3.2.0-49 where
it starts my RAID. This is absent in 3.2.0-51.

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot and/or fix this? There's no point
bisecting the kernel images given the regression has just appeared in
3.2.0-51 and, AFAIK, there was never a release of a '3.2.0-50' kernel.

[Ben McCann]

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected precise staging

** Description changed:

  I have been using Intel FakeRAID on an Asus Z77 motherboard on Kubuntu
  12.04 for months. I'm using the MDADM version and not DMRAID. It has
  been working fine other than a couple minor issues with clean shutdowns
  that I fixed by tweaking a couple of the scripts under /etc.
  
  I upgraded to the latest Linux kernel (3.2.0-51) and my FakeRAID stopped
  working, probably because auto-detection failed to see the RAID array.
  Everything works fine with the previous kernel image, 3.2.0-49.
  
  Here is /proc/mdstat with the 3.2.0-49 generic kernel image:
  
  Personalities : [raid1] [linear] [multipath] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] 
[raid10] 
  md126 : active raid1 sdb[1] sdc[0]
  976758784 blocks super external:/md127/0 [2/2] [UU]
  
  md127 : inactive sdb[1](S) sdc[0](S)
  6306 blocks super external:imsm
  
  The /proc/mdstat file is empty (other than listing personalities) in
  3.2.0-51. Note that the sdb and sdc drives are recognized by 3.2.0-51,
  and their partition tables look reasonable, so I don't see any issues
  with 3.2.0-51 actually seeing the physical drives. The problem appears
  to be that the MD driver doesn't detect the external RAID (aka 'imsm')
  metadata created by Intel fakeraid.
  
  Here's the additional data requested for new bug reports:
  
  lsb_release -rd

[Ben McCann]

OK. I added the apport data. Note that I am currently running 3.2.0-49,
which works, because my machine is almost useless with 3.2.0-51.

[Bug 771788] Re: nVidia driver activated and apparently being used but reported as not being used by jockey-gtk

[Ben McCann]

I tried to install the driver from NVidia's site as Emilio suggested,
but found it would not work.  The 256.53 driver available on their site
is incompatible with 2.6.38 kernel used by Natty.  I get the message
error: unknown field ‘ioctl’ specified in initializer and then
nvidia.ko failed to build when compiling.  It might be possible to
downgrade the kernel to get it to work, but I don't particularly want to
do that.

/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p now says Not software rendered: no
but it said yes before I started messing around with stuff.  Any idea
how I can get it changed back to yes?

This bug really needs to get fixed.  Can we change the importance to
high?  The bugs with high importance affect far, far fewer people than
this bug, so I think the prioritization is out of whack.

[Bug 668382] Re: No warning before removing important packages!!

[Ben McCann]

I removed evolution-data-server and evolution-data-server-common because I use 
gmail, so I didn't want any email software on my system.  However, that removed 
gnome-panel with no notice whatsoever.
I would like to suggest that we show what packages are being removed regardless 
of whether it's considered 'important'.  A list of 'important' software could 
always be incomplete.  If it's going to be removed I'd like to know about it 
under any circumstance.

[Bug 289918] Re: Regression: Connecting to FreeNX breaks keyboard layout in Intrepid

[Ben McCann]

This is broken for me and none of the workarounds have helped.  My client and 
server machines are both running Lucid.  I am running the official NX client 
and server so the bug is not in freenx.
I'd be nice if we could get the importance bumped up from low and hopefully get 
the bug assigned to someone.  As a result of this bug, I am completely unable 
to work on my machine since replacing my openSUSE install with Ubuntu.
Anyone have any other ideas for workarounds or debugging info I can provide?

[Bug 602152] [NEW] Ubuntu Software Center fails and swallows error message

[Ben McCann]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: software-center

I ran the following command as suggested on 
http://www.playonlinux.com/en/download.html:
sudo wget http://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_lucid.list -O 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list

This created a file which was not readable:
$ ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
-rw-r- 1 root root  43 May  1 09:42 playonlinux.list

As a result the Ubuntu Software Center was entirely broken and it told
me I had 0 packages installed.  It should be able to deal with this or
give me a reasonable error message.  This caused me needless amounts of
frustration.

When I finally launched synpatic from the command line it was clear what was 
going on:
E: Opening /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list - ifstream::ifstream (13: 
Permission denied)
E: The list of sources could not be read.
Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem.

I have to say this does piss me off to no end.  I spend the majority of
my day in apps that use Ctrl+y for redo (e.g. Firefox, Chrome, Eclipse,
etc.), so when I use gedit I always forget that it has a completely
different key binding.  Perhaps it could support both?  That way it
satisfies anyone who is used to one or the other.

[Bug 522950] Re: new flashplugin-installer broke flash in Ubuntu 9.04

[Ben McCann]

I got flash working again on by 64-bit linux by:

1) Completely uninstall the flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-
nonfree packages.

2) Downloading the 'beta' version of 64-bit Flash for Linux directly
from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html.

3) Untar the tarball available via that page intp your
~/.mozilla/plugins directory. All it contains is libflashplayer.so.

This got flash working again for me but I'm the only user on my Linux
system. If you have a shared system then the library would have to be
installed someplace under /usr or /lib so multiple users could load it.
But, I don't know where.

[Bug 376259] Re: Some Broadcom chips unsupported by B43 wireless driver [BCM4322]

[Ben McCann]

My HP-2140 uses the STA driver (which provides the 'wl' kernel module)
under Jaunty 9.04 and that works fine. However, I am *not* running the
stock 9.04 kernel due to problems with the Intel graphics driver in
9.04. To be more specific:

* I think Intrepid (8.10) worked out of the box with the 2140 but I'm
not positive. Its been a year since I installed that.

* I upgraded to Jaunty (9.04) and that was miserable using its stock
kernel due to the Intel graphics driver. I upgraded that kernel to the
linux-image-2.6.30-02063005-generic kernel on the Ubuntu site to get a
working (but slow) video driver.

* Then I downloaded version 5.10.91.9 of the BCM STA driver from
Broadcom. This required two patches to upgrade the driver to support
2.6.30, one of which included another bug fix. I think that bug crashed
the kernel which I'm not seeing running on Karmic. But, with these
patches (which basically tweak the driver for internal kernel API
changes from 2.6.28 to 2.6.30), the STA driver is working OK.

I still have the patch files if they would be any use. (They're probably
not relevant to this B43 bug).

The B43 driver is still broken on the HP-2140 with the BCM-4322 running on 
Karmic Alpha 6.

Same dmesg data:

[   70.975437] b43-phy0: Broadcom 4322 WLAN found (core revision 16)
[   71.021089] b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 8, Type 4, 
Revision 4)
[   71.045828] b43: probe of ssb0:0 failed with error -95

Here's the lspci...

LAN Controller (rev 01)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 137f

Memory at e800 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]

Kernel modules: ssb

I tried this because the STA driver doesn't work on this chipset either
in Karmic either. (I guess that's the topic for another bug). Wireless
works fine in Jaunty.

[Bug 297263] Re: HP/Compaq mini Sky2 Ethernet not working if booting from battery

[Ben McCann]

I am also seeing this bug on Karmic alpha-6 running on an HP 2140
mininote. If I boot from battery then the sky2 driver reports PCI
configuration read error and fails to install. (I.e. no 'eth0' device).
If I boot while plugged in then eth0 comes up successfully.

However, the 'acpi_os_name=Linux' work-around isn't working. For
reasons, possibly unrelated to this specific bug, when I boot from
battery the Marvell chip is not detected and is missing from 'lspci'. I
also saw the missing device problem before using 'acpi_os_name' so I
don't think that's the culprit.

[Bug 322867] Re: Kernel panic after update to 2.6.24-23 on Acer Aspire One netbook

[Ben McCann]

Stefan, I've solved my problem by upgrading to 2.6.30. If you're
curious, then read on to find out how...

I tried 'pause_on_oops' but it didn't help. It looks like both 'cores'
of the hyper-threaded Atom CPU are both panic'ing at roughly the same
time. There was no way to prevent crap scrolling off the top of the
screen.

I then tried a couple of experiments:

1) The kernel boots fine, with full ACPI support, with maxcpus=1. So, it
appears to be SMP related.

2) I booted w/o maxcpus=1, but with acpi=ht to only enable sufficient
ACPI support to detect the hyper-threaded processor. That crashes with
the same stack trace I posted in comment #64.

I searched launchpad a bit and found
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267254. The work-around suggested there
was to run 2.6.30. I installed the linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 package from
Debian Sid, rebooted, and everything's fine. ACPI is working *and* both
hyperthreads are working.

I still had to fight with wireless by installing broadcom-sta-
modules-2.6.30-1-686 (also from Sid) but as of now everything is working
fine with Jaunty on my HP 2140 mininote.

[Bug 322867] Re: Kernel panic after update to 2.6.24-23 on Acer Aspire One netbook

[Ben McCann]

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your quick response.

I used a 60 line VGA display w/o the splash screen but I can't say for
sure where the kernel goes off the rails. It looks like there's a double
panic and the second scrolls the first crash off the screen. I do see a
series of message with 'ACPI' in them but I can't tell for sure what
else was going on when the first crash happened.

I'm attaching a jpeg of the screen.

[Bug 322867] Re: Kernel panic after update to 2.6.24-23 on Acer Aspire One netbook

[Ben McCann]

I think I have the same issue with the latest kernel on Jaunty 9.04
running on an HP 2140 Netbook (atom, 1GB, 120GB, etc). The kernel
print's Starting up... and then panics with a stack trace similar to
the one in comment #8. I can reliably work-around it using acpi=off but
then I loose hyper-threading and acpi power management.

Stefan, will you be promoting this fix in Jaunty?

What's odd is that the latest kernel in 8.10 (intrepid) works fine. I've
never had this problem on this laptop. (Of course, the timing could be
just enough different to avoid the race).

Thanks,
Ben McCann

[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

[Ben McCann]

Damian,

I'm very surprised that selecting the VESA X11 driver breaks your X
windows. This is the lowest common denominator driver that doesn't
rely on any hardware specific acceleration features. It should *always*
work.

I'm attaching my xorg.conf file for your reference.


This will be my last message on this bug because I'm putting my 2133 up for 
sale on EBay. I just replaced it with the new high-res HP 2140 which has an 
Intel graphics chip instead of the VIA OpenChrome chip. The Intel chip works 
well in Intrepid and totally *blows* under Jaunty due to the introduction of 
brand new and buggy Intel drivers.

[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

[Ben McCann]

[NOTE: WORK-AROUND AVAILABLE]

I can reproduce ezgumol's observation with the added twist that the
wireless network goes down *immediately* upon starting 'xine'. I don't
have to go to full screen at all. It it takes is playing a movie in
xine. I ran a 'ping' in one window and xine in another and as soon as
xine started the movie the 'ping' stopped and shortly later the wireless
was reported down. Further, 'dmesg' shows the 'Radio hardware status
changed to DISABLED' message coincident with starting 'xine'.

So, there apparently *is* an interaction between the Jaunty openchrome
video driver and the B43 wireless driver. (The HP2133 uses a CN896 Chome
9 video chip that, by default, runs with the 'openchome' driver).

I replaced the openchrome driver with the basic 'vesa' driver by adding
'Driver vesa' to the device section in the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
This forces X to use 'vesa' instead of automatically loading
'openchrome'. For example:

Section Device
 Identifier  Configured Video Device
 Driver  vesa 
 Add this line
EndSection

(You will need to reboot for this to take affect).

Once the 2133 is running under the 'vesa' driver, the problem goes away.
I ran multiple trials with the vesa driver versus the default openchrome
driver and 'xine' always killed the wireless with 'openchrome'. 'Xine'
with the 'vesa' driver *never* killed the wireless. I can run xine in a
window, or full screen (albeit slowly), without any ill effect on
wireless. You can solve the wireless issue if you're willing to live
without openchrome video acceleration.


This is a significant point. I filed this bug because wireless started failing 
when I was testing Jaunty on a machine that normally runs Intrepid without 
issue. This is significant because I don't run 'openchrome' under Intrepid! 
That driver was pretty immature under Intrepid so, instead, I use the VIA 
proprietary driver for the Chrome 9 video chip under Intrepid. This driver 
works well, and provides the best acceleration, but its not yet available for 
Jaunty.

Given this data, it would probably be productive to get the OpenChrome
folks involved in trouble shooting this problem.

[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

[Ben McCann]

I tweaked /etc/apt/sources.list and added the intrepid package repository so I 
could force a downgrade of the HAL packages. I downgraded hal, libhal1, and 
libhal-storage from version 0.5.12-rc1+git20090403 to version 0.5.11-4ubuntu4 
(i.e. intrepid's version). I hoped to show that this bug was introduced in the 
HAL subsystem.

Unfortunately, downgrading these packages prevents X from starting. The
screen comes up but then the laptop freezes so I can't say whether the
wireless networking disconnects have improved.

I reverted that change, apt-get updated and upgraded this morning
(4/9/09), and restored Jaunty to working order. Unfortunately, the
wireless disconnect problem is still (as you would expect) present.
Wireless goes down 5 or so minutes after rebooting.

I'm trying here folks but I'm not sufficiently familiar with HAL to see
where to go next to demonstrate whether this is a HAL bug or some other
user space application. Andrew Aylett has already shown that reverting
back to the Intrepid kernel doesn't fix the problem. I verified weeks
ago that the B43 firmware hasn't changed.

So, what can I do to help troubleshoot this bug? It's not going away by
itself.

Following up on Andrew Aylett's posting, I too see the HAL layer
incorrectly deciding the radio has been turned off:

I wonder if the platform 'quirks' that are embedded in the HAL subsystem
have changed between Intrepid and Jaunty.

[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

[Ben McCann]

Still locks up with the acpitool disabling wakeup. I tried without
explicitly disabling iwconfig power management and with explicitly
setting power management off with iwconfig. (Note that on my config
power management in iwconfig is off by default so the latter experiment
was really pretty futile).

FWIW, the acpitool -w command under Intrepid and Jaunty shows exactly
the same thing, two devices, BLAN and SLPB, whose 'status' is disabled
and '*enabled', respectively. I 'disabled' wakeup on SLPB under Jaunty
and it still locked up after 5 minutes. Since this works fine in
Intrepid but fails in Jaunty (at least on my model of the HP 2133), the
ACPI wakeup doesn't appear to be related to the failure.

Upgraded all Jaunty packages to latest (Beta) version. Problem still
occurs.

It does seem like something like ACPI or some other power management
subsystem is shutting down the radio unexpectedly (and differently from
Intrepid). This is reported in dmesg at the time of the failure:

Canonical Kernel Team: I'm sure you're busy trying to close out the
release, and this bug appears to only affect one platform (so far), but
can you please make some suggestions about experiments we could try to
help narrow down the root cause of this problem?

Thanks.

Mine goes down w/o blanking the screen. It happens when the laptop is idle (but 
not blanking) and I had it happen while downloading data from the Web. I'm up 
for running experiments but I'm at a loss as to what I should be trying. 

What would it take to install the Intrepid NetworkManager on Jaunty?
Maybe we revert that and see what happens?

[Bug 331952] Re: [HP 2133 MiniNote laptop] Unexpected and unrecoverable wireless disconnect with B43 driver

[Ben McCann]

I retried the 'power off' work-around and it still failed to prevent my 
laptop's wireless from dropping after 5 or 10 minutes. I also figured out why 
the work-around was ineffective. The wireless power management was already OFF 
*before* I did the 'iwconfig  power off' command. (I ran 'iwconfig' to get 
the essid and noticed power management was OFF). I ran the 'iwconfig  power 
off' command anyway and, as you'd expect, it was ineffective because power 
management is off by default on my laptop.

FWIW, I tried enabling power management (iwconfig ... power on) and that
did not help either.

I tried the work-around suggested by Antareus and it did not help. The
wireless still lost connectivity. It did seem like it took longer to
disconnect with power management disabled but that's only one data
point.

I'm actually encouraged by this result because my HP-2133's BCM4312
wireless runs flawlessly under Ubuntu Intrepid. That makes me think
Antareus has some other issue with his wireless on Intrepid that is
distinct from the one reported in this bug. This bug documents a
regression that occurs due to the upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty.

Can we get someone assigned to this bug? Its not going to make much

http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware and download the 
latest firmware (version 4).

I considered loading a different version of the B43 firmware as
suggested but the firmware stored under /lib/firmware/b43 is identical
between Ubuntu Intrepid and Jaunty. (I binary compared all the files and
verified each uses the same firmware version (broadcom-
wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2). The install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh scripts in
Intrepid and Jaunty are also identical.

So, I don't think this is a firmware issue despite the fact the driver
wants new firmware. This firmware is fine in Intrepid. I think something
else in the b43, wl, or ssb driver has regressed. Or, perhaps there's
been a regression in network-manager.


I'm happy to help any way necessary to find this bug.

[Bug 284162] Re: [intrepid] network-manager, missing icon on the system tray or notification area after switching to a different user

[Ben McCann]

Following up on yesterday's comment...

I started customizing an alternate user account in the hope that I could
migrate my stuff from one user name to another just to get around this
bug. (If you can fix the bug, then work-around it).

During the course of configuring the desktop for that new account, the
damn NetworkManager icon minimized back to a 1x1 invisible image again.
So, at least for me, I have no work-around (via moving accounts) and no
visable network manager icon.

For what its worth,  I am running Xubuntu 8.10 with XFCE4 and it is
fully up to date according to Synaptic.

The customizations I made to my desktop included (in roughly this
order):

* Move every component on Panel 2 to Panel 1.

* Remove  Panel 2.

* Move Panel 1 from the top of the screen to the right side.

* Disable titles in the Launchers to reduce panel width.

* Change the window manager theme to 'microcurve'.

* Add a new launcher (for Thunderbird).

I logged out and back in between my two user accounts as I checked on
settings in the old account and moved them to the new account. During
one of those logout/login cycles the Network Manager icon disappeared.

Note that I did *not* try any shortcuts like copying files from
~/.config in one account to the other.


Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[Bug 284162] Re: [intrepid] network-manager, missing icon on the system tray or notification area after switching to a different user

[Ben McCann]

This isn't a problem in NetworkManager. I finally found the right bug that 
describes the behavior *and* which offers a viable work-around. See 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/139424 (Bug #139424).

The issue is that icon scaling in the System Tray doesn't work well if
the Panel is vertical instead of horizontal. The icons can be brought
back by moving the panel to the top or bottom of the screen and then
moving it back to vertical.

[Bug 284162] Re: [intrepid] network-manager, missing icon on the system tray or notification area after switching to a different user

[Ben McCann]

I've been fighting with NetworkManager with the problem that it runs but
doesn't show up in the system tray. Actually, its there but it has a 1x1
icon which is a bitch to find, but, if you find it, it works. (Alex, I
posted a similar complaint to bug 282835 last month). I found this bug
and one other this evening that hinted that the missing icons can be
repaired by creating a different user account

I tried that and indeed the network manager icon's are present in the
system tray in the newly created user account.

Something is awry in my main (and preferred) user account. Has anyone
found a solution to this problem? It appears nm-applet can't find the
required icon files but I have no idea how to prove or fix that. I found
one bug (that I can't find again) that said something about upgrades
from Hardy to Intrepid loosing because version 0.6 of the network
manager were located or named differently than icons in version 0.7.

[Bug 282835] Re: Network Manager fails to start

[Ben McCann]

I don't know if this is the right bug for this comment, but its the closest 
I've found so far.

My NetworkManager and nm-applet both work fine *except* that the nm-
applet is not displayed in the notification tray. (Its actually there
but apparently with a 1x1 pixel image. if you're lucky, you can get its
attention with the mouse).

Is this bug the best place to track this problem? If so, should we
rename the bug title to something besides fails to start? If not,
where can I track this? Its the only gripe I have about Xubuntu 8.1.0.

BTW, this was a clean install on an HP-2133 mininote laptop using a lot
of help from the Ubuntu Mininote forum.

[Bug 267115] Re: Intrepid Alpha 5, HP Mininote 2133, Live CD, X Server Hangs after Boot

[Ben McCann]

I can confirm Georg's note about 'Option NoAccel'. It prevents the freeze but 
its then so slow that you may as well use the VESA driver.

I originally noted in this bug that the cursor is off-center (down and
to the right) on my mini-note before it freezes. If I use NoAccel then X
comes up but the virtual desk top is TOO BIG. If I had to guess, its
something like 1440x900 or 1680x1050. So, there's also a problem
detecting the LCD screen resolution.

I added:

  SubSection Display
Virtual 1280 768
  EndSubSection

to the 'screen' section of the xorg.conf file. After rebooting, I had a
properly sized display. (FWIW, using 'Option ForcePanel' did not
detect the screen size correctly. I had to force the virtual desktop
size).


Ever the optimist, I then enabled acceleration (commented out the option 
noaccel) with the explicitly sized virtual desktop. But, after rebooting, the X 
server still hangs with the one difference being the mouse cursor is in the 
center of the screen. I guess that counts as progress ;-)

[Bug 267115] Re: Intrepid Alpha 5, HP Mininote 2133, Live CD, X Server Hangs after Boot

[Ben McCann]

The new openchrome xserver did not help. I updated and then ran several 
experiments, all with the same result:

1) 'Default xorg.conf with no driver selection,
2) xorg.conf with explicit 'driver openchrome' selection
3) xorg.conf with explicit:

driver openchrome
options EnableAGPDMA 0

   (I found a note someplace that this would help).

I verified the correct openchrome driver was installed using 'dpkg-query
-s xserver-xorg-video-openchrome'. It reports version
1:0.2.903-0ubuntu2.


I've been trolling through /var/log/kern.log and /var/log/messages and I 
noticed that the last message emitted by Linux before the crash is always:

  [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810

I looked around in LP for other DRM bugs but I don't see one that
matches this failure mode. (Doesn't mean its not there, its just not
obvious to me).

It's also possible this was the last successful operation and that its
unrelated. I tried 'modprobe drm' while on the console in recovery mode
(prior to starting X) and it loaded the drm kernel module w/o error. I
also ran 'modprobe via' to load the kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/via/via.ko
module and that also worked.

I'm out of ideas about where to look next...

No change with 'Option DRI false'. Still locks up with openchrome.

FWIW, the openchrome driver included in Hardy works OK with on the
Mininote.

Note, I normally don't use that and instead use the VIA proprietary
drivers. Unfortunately, those are locked to one kernel version so have
to 'hold' the kernel to prevent a kernel update from breaking the video
driver. I want to get away from that in Intrepid.

Last, I booted the Hardy kernel (2.6.24-16) but mounted the Intrepid '/'
file system. The 'vesa' driver works but the 'openchrome' driver still
fails.

Here's the Xorg.0.log from Hardy running the openchrome video driver...

I may have debris left from the VIA proprietary driver on my Intrepid
partition because I created it by copying a working Hardy install, with
the VIA driver, and then upgrading it to Intrepid.

However, I don't think that's adding to this problem because I first
encountered this problem trying to run the Intreprid Live CD. I did the
upgrade just to provide a workable debugging environment.

And, it really shouldnb't matter which drivers are on the disk if I
explicitly select one using the 'Driver' statement in the xorg.conf. (I
could believe that auto-config may get confused but an explicit driver
selection should take precedence).

[Bug 223110] Re: kernel panic on boot after upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04

[Ben McCann]

I hit this same bug upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid Alpha 6.

This is a killer for linux newbies and really should be addressed before
Intrepid completes. I always use two root file systems so I can fall
back if an upgrade fails. Most people aren't that paranoid and hence
this bug will BRICK their computer until they boot (and possibly
reinstall) from external media.

[Bug 267115] Re: Intrepid Alpha 5, HP Mininote 2133, Live CD, X Server Hangs after Boot

[Ben McCann]

I repartitioned my HP 2133's disk when it first arrived to support two root 
file systems. I cloned my working Hardy root file system from one '/' to the 
other and then ran a dist-upgrade to convert that to Intrepid Alpha 6. This was 
successful so I can now run experiments on the X server.

The first boot into X resulted in a low-resolution, degraded, X
configuration. A dialog box (I don't recall the details) let me select
the 'default' X configuration. This bricked my X installation just like
described above. I tried 'repairing' it a couple times in recovery mode
to no avail.

I then found and copied /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe to
/etc/X11/xorg.conf. This works correctly, but slowly. I diff'ed the
original 'default' xorg.conf file and the failsafe file uses:

driver vesa

where the original default config file leaves this blank. (I'm guessing
X tries to auto-configure).

I guess this auto-configuration code is guessing the wrong type of video
chip set? This laptop uses a VIA Chrome9 chip that isn't exactly
mainstream.


I've taken this a long way towards resolution by providing a platform to repro 
this failure and actually get some results. If there's more I can do then 
please let me know. 

Meanwhile, I'm going to see if the OpenChrome server is available for
Intrepid.

[Ben McCann]

I marked bug 267115 as a duplicate of this bug. I could not get Intrepid
to load the LiveCD. (But, I did not try the 'secure mode' install). I
was able to get it installed by upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid and
then manually selecting the xorg.conf.failsafe config file that uses the
VESA driver.

For some reason, I never encountered this problem with Hardy, possibly
because I used the kernel arg 'xforcevesa'. I tried that with Intrepid
and it apparently had no affect. The X server would not start correctly
until I explicitly set:

driver vesa

in xorg.conf.

Explicitly selecting the openchrome driver using:

in the xorg.conf file locks up the X server exactly as described in bug
267115. So, I infer that the X server is selecting the driver correctly
but that the openchrome driver is busted in Intrepid.

The Hp-2133 needs the boot option 

  acpi_os=!Windows 2006

to run Hardy correctly. (I don't why but its documented in the Ubuntu
mininote forum at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=749693). I
manually added this to the boot command line prior to booting the 'test
drive without installing' boot option.

This had NO effect. The X server still hung as described earlier.

+ I'm trying to boot the Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5 Live CD from USB on my HP
  2133 Mininote Laptop. (The 2133 is running Hardy almost flawlessly right
  now). I select 'try live cd' boot option and then the grub splash screen
  works fine. I get the normal ubuntu progress bar. The progress bar runs
  to completion and then the screen blanks as the X server starts.
  
  I then get the normal X windows 'busy' cursor used with Ubuntu. (Round
  white circle with black dots around the edge). However, the cursor is
  off center and corrupted a bit. But, most importantly, the laptop is
  completely frozen.
  
  I tried booting with 'xforcevesa' with no success. I also hit 'esc' in
  Grub and then 'f4' to select the 'safe graphics mode' option and that
  also failed.
  
  I'd be happy to try any experiments that you recommend to trouble-shoot
  this. For example, are there other Linux boot options (such as 'video'
  or 'vga') that would dumb-down the live CD X installer enough to get a
  handle on what's going wrong?

[Bug 267115] [NEW] Intrepid Alpha 6, HP Mininote 2133, Live CD, X Server Hangs after Boot

[Ben McCann]

Public bug reported:

I'm trying to boot the Intrepid Ibex Alpha 6 Live CD from USB on my HP
2133 Mininote Laptop. (The 2133 is running Hardy almost flawlessly right
now). I select 'try live cd' boot option and then the grub splash screen
works fine. I get the normal ubuntu progress bar. The progress bar runs
to completion and then the screen blanks as the X server starts.

I then get the normal X windows 'busy' cursor used with Ubuntu. (Round
white circle with black dots around the edge). However, the cursor is
off center and corrupted a bit. But, most importantly, the laptop is
completely frozen.

I tried booting with 'xforcevesa' with no success. I also hit 'esc' in
Grub and then 'f4' to select the 'safe graphics mode' option and that
also failed.

I'd be happy to try any experiments that you recommend to trouble-shoot
this. For example, are there other Linux boot options (such as 'video'
or 'vga') that would dumb-down the live CD X installer enough to get a
handle on what's going wrong?

[Bug 201890] Re: ubuntu does not support frequency scaling with intel T9300

[Ben McCann]

I can't load acpi-cpufreq on an HP-2133 Mini-note with a VIA C7-M processor. 
(This seemed like the closest bug to comment on instead of opening yet another 
bug). I'm running Hardy Heron RC1 updated as of 4/24/08. The laptop has a 
dual-boot config between Xubuntu Hardy and Suse Enterprise 10 (which it came 
with). The Suse Enterprise 10 kernel _does_ work with acpi-cpufreq. That kernel 
is 2.6.16.54-0.2.5-default.

I found the following note on a fedora forum which seems to imply the
2.6.24 kernel (also used in Hardy) had a regression in the ACPI code
that broke cpufreq:

* Wed Mar 19 2008 Chuck Ebbert [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.6.24.3-48
- Revert the ACPI sizeof patch that fixes BZ 437466 because it breaks 
acpi-cpufreq.

The full link for this change log is
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=43392.

Do these patches have to be integrated into the next Ubuntu Hardy
kernel?
