<0> Hey guys. I am trying to run the thinkpad tools on my laptop (2.6.16), but when I go to load the modules, I get a couple of errors concerning unknown symbols, namely inter_module_get_request and inter_module_put. Is there a patch I can use to fix this?
<1> guys is it safe to use optimization flags like `-03 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -march=' when compiling kernel ?
<2> http://pastebin.com/624077
<3> IEEE 802.11 WEP encryption is unselectable.. any idea why? (2.6.16)
<4> can anyone tell me why initrd would be keeping my external hdd from being detected at boot up?
<4> i have to disable from buffer for udev to properly detect the external hdd
<4> *framebuffer
<4> can anyone tell me why i get this error, i have searched everywhere: usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10
<4> usb 1-4: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start
<4> usb 1-4: can't read configurations, error -75
<5> uhm
<4> only happens when i have framebuffer installed...when i disable framebuffer then udev will detect my external hdd just fine
<5> unexplanable conflicts..
<4> ?
<4> uhm
<4> theres always an explanation :)
<5> yeah, of course
<4> is it some kind of irq conflict?
<4> it did mention trying different addresses
<5> it just make you think about what a framebuffer has to do with usb..
<5> uhm
<4> i know i dont think it has anything to do with usb
<5> it shouldn't
<4> also when i do a mount -t auto /dev/sdb1 to my mount it it complains that it isn't a valid block device
<5> it seems some kind of addressing error
<5> or kernel's drivers error
<5> or maybe it's just udev
<4> well the errors happen before udev
<5> ah
<4> so what does that mean?
<5> that udev doesn't matter
<4> hrmm
<5> are you using a module for ehci_hcd?
<4> no its all built in
<4> echi uhci ohci
<6> aEva|-: I think you might have a user error;replace the user & try again :)
<4> gb, what do you mean?
<5> or maybe a system error
<5> replace the system & try again
<4> gb, oh dur i'm a little slow
<6> :)
<4> hehe i'm not the problem ;)
<6> thats what they all say
<4> so i guess you guys dont know then is that right?
<5> well, those error messages are not exactly the quintessence of cleareness
<5> usb 1-4: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start
<5> usb 1-4: can't read configurations, error -75
<5> I mean these
<4> those errors go away when i take the initrd line out of grub.conf
<6> aEva|-: see :)
<4> then when udev gets loaded it finds the external hdd
<4> gb, thats still a problem ;)
<6> what user put it in there too begin with :P
<4> gb, you're not helping much ;)
<5> indeed
<6> aEva|-: surely you dont believe irc is for trieving ***istance?
<6> arrgh
<6> aEva|-: surely you dont believe irc is for retrieving ***istance?
<5> who translates?
<4> babelfish.altavista.com
<6> thegl***: for whom do you refer?
<5> for whom?
<4> you mean "to whom?" :P
<6> for to whom do you refer doesn't sound right too me :)
<5> ah
<5> now is "for to whom"
<5> no, indeed it wouldn't sound fine
<6> anyway im orf too watch landline, have udev fun :)
<5> orf?
<4> no its "to who do you refer" not "for who do you refer" lol
<4> no its "to whom do you refer" not "for whom do you refer" lol
<5> goodnight
<7> hi
<8> I have a question about epoll. What is the void *ptr; used for in the epoll_data structure ?
<6> havin fun?
<8> gb, what could be wrong if epoll_wait() returns "Bad address" ?
<6> djjj: Why you asking me? I knows nuthingk :)
<8> The question is directed to everyone listening
<6> djjj: I wasn't listening I just saw the window # go red at the mention of my nick
<8> i know
<9> Hi All, Do you offer help for kernel recompilation ?
<9> server is not booting on 2.4.32
<10> i never compiled my kernel
<10> i always leave it for the compiler to do it for me
<9> Our data center doesnt compile to the latest available
<11> how do i edit "Local version"? if i just add a custom value there the compiling will fail complaining about the version
<6> bocha911: give it some percusive maintenance wirg a 10lb sledgehammer
<6> bocha911: give it some percusive maintenance with a 10lb sledgehammer
<9> gb: the new kernel is trying to identify the SATA drives as hda/hdb for some reason
<6> bocha911: wont do that after the percusive maintenance I spoke of :)
<8> Hi, i am coding some software with epoll. If i want to make changes to the epoll_data structure what do i need to rebuild to make it work correctly with epoll_wait()
<9> gb: any other suggestions :)
<12> hi all
<12> are there any functions in the kernel for changing the name of a process?
<11> how do i edit "Local version" in the kernel setup (using menuconfig)? if i just add a custom value there the compiling will fail complaining about the version
<12> Isil`Zha, what kernel version?
<11> solemnwarning: 2.6.15.1
<12> same as me
<12> it worked for me (with menuconfig)
<12> are you running some outdated tools or anything on your machine?
<12> like GCC2 or somthing?
<11> gcc is version 4.something
<12> hmmm
<12> whats the error message?
<11> "the UTS release version in include/linx/version.h `2.6.15.1custom0.1` does not match current version: '2.6.15.1' please correct this"
<12> try adding a - symbol at the start of local version
<12> CTCP VERSION me
<12> I've never actually compiled a kernel with local version beginning with anything other then "-" :\
<12> I'll try recompiling mine like it
<11> adding only "-" without additional spaces?
<12> yes
<11> ok i'll try that. thank you
<12> set local version to "-custom0.1" without the quotes, it might fix it
<12> sure
<12> If that doesnt fix it the only thing i can think of is either the tools on your machine dont like the kernel build scripts or you have a corrupted tarball
<11> actually i think aout adding some spaces as i would read better i think. do you think this could cause a problem?
<11> is there some way i can find out without compiling everything? bacause... this takes a little while ^^
<12> Isil`Zha, no idea about the spaces thing
<12> and recompiling shouldant take long since the build scripts only recompile object files when the source has been modified of the config has been changed in a way that affects them
<12> does anyone know why the BSD setproctitle(3) function has never been implemented in Linux?
<11> i did change quite some things in the config. maybe this is why? i didn't really check but i guess it need about 20 minutes in total
<11> *needs
<12> Isil`Zha, then you need to wait for all affected object files to be recompiled :)
<12> did you disable all the drivers you dont need, or are you on a slow machine?
<11> ok at least there is not another problem there ^^
<8> Any kernel coders active? Where is the epoll_data union defined when building the kernel ?
<12> djjj: tried grep on the kernel source yet
<12> ?
<8> yes completely
<12> and nothing was found?
<8> nothing.
<12> then its not in the kernel source
<12> maybe its in the kernel headers?
<8> the only epoll_data union defined is in /usr/include
<8> the only epoll_data union defined is in /usr/include/sys
<12> then thats probably it :)
<8> i've altered the union because i needed to add a type
<8> so if i rebuild the kernel then the structure should be applied well ?
<12> probably
<8> its not working correctly so i guess the epoll_wait() function probarly uses the old union that was defined during the build of my kernel
<8> right ?
<12> no idea
<8> ru a coder ?
<12> not a kernel dev
<8> me neither, im just a coder
<12> C++ ftw :)
