2009-03-05 Thread Stefan Bader
** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ Impact (from patch): We found a situation on Linus' machine that the Nvidia 
timer quirk hit on a Intel chipset system.  the problem is that the system has 
a fancy Nvidia card with an own PCI bridge, and the early-quirks code looking 
for any NVidia bridge triggered on it incorrectly.  This didn't lead a boot 
failure by luck, but the timer routing code selecting the wrong timer first and 
some ugly messages.  It might lead to real problems on other systems.
+ 
+ Fix: I checked all the devices which are currently checked for by 
early_quirks and it turns out they are all located in the root bus zero. So 
change the early-quirks loop to only scan bus 0.  This incidently also saves 
quite some unnecessary scanning work, because early_quirks doesn't go through 
all the non root busses. The graphics card is not on bus 0, so it is not 
matched anymore.
+ 
+ Testcase: See below.
+ 
+ 
  Kubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10) alpha5 will not boot on my computer with the 
2.6.27-2.3 kernel. The 2.6.26 kernel works fine. I have tested with the livecd 
and have received similar results. My computer is a Compaq Presario S6010V. 
Specs are something like:
  -Pentium Celeron 2.5 GHZ
  -640 MB RAM (DDR)
  -Nvidia GeForce4 MX 440
  
  Here are screenshots:
  This is basically at the start of the boot. The errors look suspicious.
  http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c355/Woremar/img_8982.jpg
  
  Then after that sometimes it goes on after Loading Hardware drivers
  and throws a bunch of errors about not being able to launch some
  executables from /sbin. Other times stuff just crashes. Sort of hard to
  get good info since it all goes by so fast.
  
  On the LiveCD it proceeds to Loading Hardware Drivers then throws 3
  lines of SQAUSHFS errors after which it hangs indefinitely.
  
  After some investigation, I found out that switching the videocard in
  use from PCI (my Geforce4) to onboard in the BIOS avoids this crash, so
  it could be something fiddly triggered by my videocard or the BIOS or
  some combination of the two.

Doh, it sounded just like too well matching. So, we have to go through
more pain, sorry. When you boot the 2.6.28 kernel, break for grub and on
the selection screen edit the arguments. Remove quiet and splash and
add vga=ask pause_on_panic=60. When you boot you'll get a screen that
lets you select a VGA mode. Get the one with the most lines and go on.
Hopefully by that, you can catch the place and backtrace of te first
oops that happens with a bit more of the messages around it.

2009-03-03 Thread Stefan Bader
With the Intrepid task we try to indicate that this was a regression
start started with Intrepid. It might not be perfect but hopefully this
helps to have it more in view. And sorry about asking te same questions
again. But sometimes bugs are fixed by patches not necessarily
recognizable as a fix for a certain problem.

As for the crash. Unfortunately with these, there is a good chance that
there have been several and we are looking at the last of a series. And
page up conveniently does not work anymore. There would be ways to get a
better view on this, but incidentally I just was made aware of a fix
that would match your situation just too well. This has to do with
certain adjustments for NVidia chipsets which unfortunately get
triggered for Intel chipsets if there is a NVidia graphics card. This
and your comment that everything works if you activate the internal
graphics card sound really promising for that.

If I build a test kernel, which version would be the most convenient for
you? Something based on the latest Intrepid or Jaunty? Thanks, Stefan

Sorry for the really long time without any response. We are trying to

I tried the Intrepid beta and the final release on a Gigabyte AMD690G
(GA-MA69GM-S2H) with an AthlonX2 4800+, and it drops to a busybox shell
after Loading Hardware Drivers and some lines of SQAUSHFS errors.

It also ahppens on a Gigabyte G33 motherboard, so it is not AMD related.

Happens with x86 and AMD64 version.

The same happened with Mandriva One 2009, so it may be a kernel bug.

Make sure to test the latest kernel version. Specifically check the

You can also check by doing cat /proc/version_signature
