<0> mustaf: so do you have permission to access the files?
<1> anyone ever see this? root@latidude:/proc/acpi/video# ls
<1> VID/ VID/ VID2/
<1> two 'VID'?
<0> iMacGyver: ctrl chars in name?
<1> jim: i don't see any, i guess i could pipe ls through hexdump?
<0> iMacGyver: sounds like a plan :)
<2> trough | less would be enough i think
<1> balrog-kun: i don't have trough
<2> try ls | less :)
<1> yeah, no control cahrs
<2> ah, it's in proc
<1> si
<2> hmm i don't have "video" in "acpi"
<1> also does anyone know of a problem where after a resume (from suspend or hibernate) the psmouse driver is no longer ***ociated with the serio device (and i can't get it to manually ***ociate)? This is an alps glidepoint on a dell latitude d610.



<1> trying rescan and reconnect doesn't help (echo -n "rescan" > devctl)
<3> is there a way i can speadup the: Loading................................... process..? (without buying a new pc;)
<2> the one at the very beginning?
<2> maybe by using Image instead of bzImage
<3> using image?
<2> Image
<3> i had something like a ramdisk, while ago - then it did the loading.................................... part in 3sec
<3> i dont know what a image is m8 (well...)
<2> ah, then you're probably talking about some distribution specific "Loading........"
<3> well, it comes after - lilo
<2> immediately after lilo?
<3> when i select something on my lilo display i see
<3> Loading...............................................................................
<3> (slackware)
<2> ok, try using the uncompressed kernel image
<3> :|
<2> you're using a bzImage right now, right?
<3> how do i get that done.. > i know where to find my /src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage
<3> yep
<2> there should be the same file somewhere in boot too, but not bz compressed
<2> maybe vmlinuz
<3> my bzImage is 1922K
<3> and my vmlinux.bin is 7K smaller
<2> it must be a bigger file
<2> much bigger
<3> no, its 1.9MB
<3> an im running on that kernel right now
<3> (2.6.15.5)
<2> my i386 kernel is 2 MB bz compressed and 5.5 MBuncompressed
<2> my arm kernel is 800 kB z compressed and 1.6 MB uncompressed
<3> how long does it take to load your kernel
<3> ... the loading ...... part?
<2> don't remember :p my desktop uptime is 56 days
<3> O_o
<2> the arm kernel uncompresses and boots in below a second
<3> cool, but i got a intel mobile
<3> and not a arm processor :P
<2> lemme check the i386 kernel in qemu
<3> :)
<2> the Loading... took like a second and then about 5 seconds to the point where it mounts root (but it panicked instead)
<3> hahah
<3> hmmm, and that is in emulation mode..
<4> talk about fat kernel boys
<3> i really wonder why 'loading ..........................................' takes 20sec
<3> and the boot process like 10sec (max:P)
<3> ive seen it flashing/ lightning fast in the past
<5> Hi -- what's wrong if I have to do udevstart whenever I insert a device (like a portable usb disk), before the device node gets created?
<2> yeah, in emulation and on a pentium 550 MHz host
<5> It used to do that automatically, but I broke it somehow.
<4> It wasn't broke n you decided too fix it hey?
<5> No, it stopped automatically configuring a device node, probably after some kernel upgrade... or package upgrade, heh.
<5> I just don't know at what point I broke it.
<4> yup the precise moment you fixed it :)
<2> main2: maybe your hd is in some different mode? (like pio instead of dma or something)
<5> I was probably fixing something else and broke this in the process :)
<4> give it some percusive maintenance with a 10lb sledge
<4> that'l lern it good
<5> I guess upgrading to udev-081-x86_64-1 broke it.
<5> I might need new init scripts.
<4> hehehe



<4> got backups?
<2> got backups? got backups?
<3> balrog-kun: hmmmm
<3> dunno .. lets take a look closer..
<5> I can probably revert... but I like being on the edge!
<4> yeah if your not on the edge your taking up too much space
<5> I may just need a reboot though, after the package upgrade.
<3> balrog-kun: do you have any idea how i could check this?
<3> tough i found some funny things here > (in the lilo sectiong...) http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Post_Installation_Tips#Lilo_Boot_Process_Speed_Up
<2> in the bios setup i guess
<6> ksyms -a
<6> ksyms: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented
<3> UHMM my bios is not saying so much (ibm laptop) x31
<6> i got module support compiled in and can load modules
<6> and i can cat /proc/kallsyms
<6> why doesnt ksyms work?
<6> kernelversion 2.6.15.4
<4> cwc: not enough money?
<4> crap working conditions?
<6> 1 gig free
<6> :/
<6> module-init-tools version 3.2.2
<2> do you also have an old version of module-init-tools somewhere on your hd?
<6> yes, debian installed both
<2> it's probably calling the old one instead
<2> ah, no
<2> the new module-init-tools doesn't have ksyms at all if i remember right
<6> /sbin/ksyms -> insmod.modutils
<2> /sbin/ksyms -> insmod.old here
<6> cat /proc/kallsyms is working, so there's no real problem with ksyms
<6> *** Warning: "inetdev_init" [/home/cw/programming/odompv2/kernel/kern-odomp.ko] undefined!
<6> ^^^^^ was the reason for me to have a look at ksyms at all :)
<2> a lot of the module managing stuff has been moved out of modutils and the new modutils are only wrappers for some syscalls
<2> module-init-tools that is
<6> i included inetdevice, so the function should be known i think
<6> inetdevice.h
<6> i see - i was just wondering about this error as i knew it from my first 2.6.0 baby steps ;)
<7> in kernel DRM is Defined at drivers/char/drm/Kconfig:7
<7> how to put it to be Defined at drivers/char/drm/Kconfig:34 ?
<8> Is there a "quiet" kernel parameter to prevent stuff being printed to the console during boot (before init starts)?
<7> how can i make my DRM support enable?
<7> twb: Choose this option if you have an ATI Radeon graphics card. There
<7> are both PCI and AGP versions. You don't need to choose this to
<7> run the Radeon in plain VGA mode. There is a product page at
<7> <http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/radeon32/index.html>;.
<7> If M is selected, the module will be called radeon.
<7> twb: but i can`t make it work
<7> don`t know exactli what
<8> gcosmin: what are you talking to me for?
<8> gcosmin: what distro and what is the output of "lspci | grep VGA" ?
<4> gcosmin: yeahnoone talks too gcosmin :)
<4> oops
<4> gcosmin: yeahnoone talks too twb
<8> I only just got here.
<4> twb: how could there be a kernel parameter too prevent output from other things non-kernel related?
<8> gb: eh?
<4> init==kernel before init==before kernel starts
<8> gb: I have already dropped output from init stuff.
<4> youmust tell me what this kernel parameter is that prevents output during boot then :)
<8> gb: you know, the stuff that init=/sbin/init prints.
<8> gb: *I'm* asking *you*!
<4> read what I said carefully
<4> particularly the biot about init not being responsible for *other* non-kernel relatedthings like the bios
<8> OK. Let's go through this slowly.
<4> beware my typos making what I type unreadable
<8> First, the BIOS boots.
<8> It prints stuff like "Getting DHCP address. Trying to load pxefoo."
<4> hang on, what boot loader?
<8> That is the bootloader.
<8> Well, actually that is the BIOS + the stuff on the NIC.
<8> The bootloader mainly just prints boot:.
<8> Then $stuff gets control. It prints things like "Welcome to KNOPPIX" and "Trying to load network modules".
<4> ahh a knoppix issue not a kernel issue
<8> Then it says "starting INIT: fnord" and all the stuff in /etc/rcS.d and /etc/rc?.d print.
