<0> I have had a couple hangs using 2.6.16 on amd64... i'm looking for a guide to configure the kernel for debugging, i want to determine if it is software or bad hardware
<0> since the hardware is new
<1> i am getting a kernel panic on debian stable...anyone in here who could help?
<2> hello
<3> Was bcm43xx removed in 2.6.17-rc4? I've found references to it being included as late as rc3, but I just patched .16 -> .17-rc4 and I'm unable to find the configuration for it in both menuconfig and the .config itself
<4> chrisa: well based on the fact that rc3..rc4 contains 3 or 4 patches to fix bcm43xx, i doubt that its removed
<3> Found that a moment ago searching through the changelog to see any messages about it, I'll have to check its dependencies again then
<3> I definitely see it in the source tree, I must have missed something elsewhere. Don't I feel stupid right about now
<3> Ah, it depended on IEEE80211_SOFTMAC and EXPERIMENTAL (which the former depended on).
<5> i've been trying to compile a kernel on an i686 system whose processor type is generic '386' using the "processor type and features" option for that value. however, repeatedly when trying the kernel, uname -a tells me my system is i686 and so my i386 dependent software doesn't run properly. any ideas?
<6> Is it possible to find the number of threads a process is using within /proc?
<7> e
<7> anyone here? I'm having trouble compiling a kernel, I'm on dialup so I'd like to know what in particular needs fixing
<7> /usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include/asm/byteorder.h:14: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type
<7> anyone heard of it before?
<7> gcc version 4.0.3



<8> Idont knowwhy being on dialup would berelevant too a compiler error,but you could try installing a stable gcc that's known too work & try that
<7> er? that a bad version?
<8> that said I'musing gcc 4.0.3-1 in sid & have not had trouble with it yet, I have had issueswith previous 4.0.? gcc's though
<7> its cause I cant do 400M of downlaods
<7> this is quite odd, I dont know why it wotn compile now, or at what time it stopped
<7> could this be me not having the right headers or soemthing?
<8> if you'verecently done anupgrade which changed the gcc thats when it will have stopped working
<7> I just unpacked a clean copy of the kernel and that wotn compile either
<8> if you have any doubt try compiling an oldkernel you've previously compiled with no errors
<7> I would expect that there shouldn't be a problem
<7> there aren't issues between versions of gcc and th kernel are there?
<7> kernel sources
<8> noonly gcc iussues that I'm aware of
<7> thats the thing, this is the last kernel I put togethor, I'm running it
<7> I wanted to add acpi and play with stuff :)
<8> some gcc's are completely foobarred & it sounds like you managed too find one
<7> hah, ok, I dont look forward to upgradeing gcc, usually retty big download
<7> I hope it dosn't come with yet-antoher-version of libc6
<8> gcc in itself is not very large, so just get astable version of it & try that
<7> I'm still waiting for apt to update
<8> 517122 Mar 12 02:47 /var/cache/apt/archives/gcc-4.0_4.0.3-1_i386.deb
<8> the problem is the other libs it may need too update
<8> those I'm not saure about
<8> the gcc itself is possibly fine
<7> yup
<8> but I have known it too be an issue in the past on sid on multiple occ***ions
<8> each time it pissed me off severly
<7> the whole libc6 ext2fsutils thing was annoying
<7> man I know my modem is pushing as much of the 33.6 as its capable of, but I want high speed
<7> ok, the update is done, gcc is already the newest version.
<7> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 599 not upgraded.
<7> :/
<8> well theres something wrong with your mirror then or the fix hasn't filtered back too what you are using
<8> check your cache & tell me your gcc packaversion
<8> as in /exec -o ls -al /var/cache/apt/archives/gcc-4.0_4.0.3-1_i386.deb
<8> arrgh
<7> zippo:/usr/src/linux-2.4.22# apt-get install apt-file
<8> oh yeah it is on one line
<7> The following extra packages will be installed:
<7> gcc-4.1-base libapt-pkg-perl libc6 libc6-dev libconfigfile-perl libdb4.4 libgcc1 libperl5.8 libstdc++6 liburi-perl
<7> perl perl-base perl-modules perl-suid tzdata
<7> ???
<8> dont past non kernel specific stuff here
<7> k
<7> I'll see if theis gcc thing fixes it, ask more questions if I cant get it to compile about possable problem source
<8> I dont even know what dist you are using
<8> so its difficult too help
<8> it might do you better too ask in relevant channel too your dist
<7> its debain
<8> but debian has multiple releases
<7> heh, they dont know anything
<8> I only use sid & woody
<8> I might even have an old potato box in storage as well but they all compile kernels just fine
<7> ok gcc-4.1 base didn't do it
<7> I just dont know the cause of the compile error
<7> for all I know its cause of the headers I have or soemthing
<8> it's bound too be the gcc
<8> but you still need too tell me which dist
<7> gcc:
<7> Installed: 4:4.0.2-2
<7> Candidate: 4:4.0.2-2



<8> hmm ok you might need too roll baxk too aworking one
<7> last I knew its all mixed up
<7> hmm
<8> are you use sid, sare or something else?
<8> usding rather
<7> says it thinks its 3.1
<8> that doesn't help
<7> :) I know
<7> sarge
<8> ok I cant offer help on that sorry you're stuck with the lovely folk in #debian :)
<7> :/
<8> I suggest you talk nicely andask sumone for an old functional deb of a working gcc
<8> or go through your archives & restore an older gcc fromthe archive if you still have them
<7> ok, so certian versions of gcc cant compile th linux kernel. yes?
<7> sanxiyn rue_home: Kernel is broken.
<7> sanxiyn rue_home: The issue even has Kernel bug number.
<7> sanxiyn rue_home: To be exact, Kernel bug #5478 WILL_NOT_FIX.
<7> sanxiyn rue_home: YOU CANT COMPILE KERNEL 2.4 WITH GCC 4!
<7> is that true?
<7> I dont have to switch to 2.6 do I? :(
<7> (:-| do I?
<7> the naswer seems to be make CC=gcc-3.3
<7> just so you all know
<7> I;ll tell my bot so google will know too
<7> nope that dosn't work
<7> {standard input}:803: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `mov'
<8> rue_home: nope you cancompile with an earlier gcc as I said :)
<8> you simp[ly modify the gcc symlink & voila its fixed
<8> but if you'd looked at the bugs on pdo you'd probably have found it,I'm pretty certain that would have been the first suggestion from the #debian crowd
<7> oh, I see, their all still installed...
<7> interesting
<8> nonot all of them,but enough versions too get you round your issue
<8> & gcc 4 does bugger up even with 2.6 on occ***ions
<8> it's aninherently unstable gcc
<8> because it's stillundser development in line with 2.6 kernel requirements
<8> making it incompatible with all earlier kernel versions
<8> An alternative too hacking your gcc links is too run something like woody in an uml for compiling
<8> that way you can still use bleeding edge sid & have a known too work stable disty too fall on
<9> or you could just *gasp* upgrade to a 2.6, i like them alot more... which would make more sense if you are using "bleeding edge" sid
<8> tis what I do but I do it in dual boot on my sid box because I aint sussed out everything uml wise as yet,but thats my issue, a smart fellow like yourself would have it sussed in notime I'm sure :)
<8> except he's using boring old sarge with the bugs of sid & the outdateness of woody :)
<9> sarge still should have a 2.4 in repo, but im guessing he cant use that for some reason?
<8> yeah downloasing on a modulator/demodulator link ****s :)
<8> he had some source & was trying too use it & gcc 4 wouldn't look at it
<9> why cant we just all use kernel 2.6 and live happily :)
<8> my guess is #debian told him too just download a 2.4 kernel deb as well
<9> im sad though, i download a new kernel image on my laptop and when i get around to compiling it im like 3 versions behind...
<8> yeah its worse for me when I go bush for 6 opr more months :)
<7> changing the symlink didn't work
<8> hmm strange, did you change the right symlink?
<9> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 2006-05-17 07:35 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-4.0 to gcc-3.3?
<7> yup
<9> wierd i remember playing around with that a while back and it worked fine
<7> zippo:/usr/src/linux-2.4.22# ls -l /usr/bin/gcc
<7> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 May 21 22:19 /usr/bin/gcc -> gcc-3.3
<8> same
<7> {standard input}: ***embler messages:
<7> who does the ***embling?
<8> masm on intel based boxes I think
<7> oh i'm best to go to 2.6, i dont look forward to it, with the nvodia stuff and all
<7> would i be here if i was running windows? :/
<9> probably for the best
<10> hi to all!
<10> I am trying to use a pcmcia card on my laptop, but everytime i plug in, it freezes the pc
<10> this happen with a lot of livecd (slax,gentoo,kubuntu)
<10> and on my base system with kernel 2.6.16
<11> good morning
<12> how can i capture the output dmsg if the notebook freezes on startup and doesn't have a serial port?
<13> linux needs some shift startup thingy
<14> hi _RADIOhead
<15> lo aXp
<15> dude
<15> :)
