<0> Hello. I'm getting errors like: ata2: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } and ata2: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError } in my logs.
<0> Sounds like imminent drive failure?
<1> Can anyone tell me where I can download a full version of the latest stable Kernel ? I can only find the patch of 2.6.16-1
<2> www.kernel.org, the "F" link
<2> or http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/
<3> I am getting a kernel panic starting with "BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0"... the full message is here: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=111282 Any advice for resolution?
<4> hi all..im having some problems. my disks keep falling out after a while i get "I/O error" .. i mean like dissapare. i need to power off. then,, not even bios finds then.. if i have my pc off for 2-3 min,, and power up again they come back. what might be wrong? im suspecting the mobo ide controller
<5> I need help sorting out these udev errors, please
<5> udevd[377]: init_udevd_socket: bind failed: Address already in use
<5> udevd[373]: main: error initializing udevd socket: Illegal seek
<6> node_6: That is not a kernel problem.
<5> it's a udev problem. udev is closely tied to the kernel
<7> how safe is it to move kernels?
<8> a kernel is juat _yet_ another programm
<7> so how portable is it
<7> ?

<9> newb question: how do I save changes to attributes in /sys and /proc between boots?
<6> You don't.
<6> Neither are "real" filesystems
<6> What kind of changes are you trying to 'save' anyway?
<9> having problems when thermal acpi module is loaded. /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZ1/trip_points has very low values, 16 degrees C for hot, so CPU gets throttled to slowest state
<6> Something like that you'll want to just put in a late-running init script so that it's automatically set when the machine boots
<9> also keep needing to set /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq to the max freq
<6> keep needing?
<6> As in every few minutes or what?
<9> during the boot process, or else I'm finding it's taking ages - I think the late running init script is a cool idea - where do the default values come from though?
<10> anybody here can tell me if the git.git tree is the latest or is linux-2.6.git is?
<11> http://git.kernel.org/git/ shows them all, linus's is in: linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
<10> laj_:what i mean is is git.git more current than linux-2.6.git in torvalds dir
<11> ahh, yes go for git.git, linus has talk about dropping his own .git some time ago
<10> just out of curiosity sorry to annoy u but the mm tree does it have its own git branch?
<6> shiv4: The default values are actually being pulled out of ACPI data, and we know how sane that stuff usually is
<6> I've got a notebook that's so damn intelligently designed the default CPU speed is 0Mhz. That's fun right there.
<6> This is one of those things that people are referring to when they so vaguely say "broken ACPI". ;)
<6> Oh, and git up, a-git git, git down
<6> Pretty much
<10> see this is weird
<10> why is it that git.git got updated 2 days ago
<10> but linux-2.6.git got touched 8 hours ago
<6> I guess no one got the East-E reference
<6> s/East/Easy/;
<10> wouldnt that tell u that linux-2.6.git is more uptodate?
<11> hillster: your are talking about to different things, git.git is the scm used to manage the kernel, linux-2.6.git is linus's kernel in a git-scm
<11> as in linux-2.6.git holds kernel v2.6.16.x and 2.6.17-rc2 while git.git holds git v1.3.3
<10> http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/
<10> so that is GIT not the linux kernel
<11> yes
<11> and reg. mm find it at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git
<10> so basically that tree is as new as it gets
<11> or click-able http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git;a=summary
<10> basically i wanna follow the latest tree with all the xperimental stuff so i can watch a cuple of buggy drivers
<11> more info in release-note http://www.linuxtoday.com/developer/2006052200726NWKNDV ( and on google)
<10> thanks for your patients :)
<11> np :)
<10> isnt the mm tree where all the stuff goes that 'might' break so to speak?
<11> as far as i know yes
<6> By the way, what's GIT stand for, anyway?
<11> re. trcking in git: for info on git itself : http://git.or.cz/ http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_%28software%29
<11> tracking*
<6> I'm from the south, but I'm literate
<6> My brain refuses to see the obvious sometimes
<6> I was thinking (hoping/begging/praying) that it was an acronym, rather than something written as spoken in idjit
<11> no direct acro as far as i remember
<6> *sigh* seems that it is 'git' as in "Git 'er done"
<11> there some tails, somewhere on the wiki, looking to find it :)
<6> Nah dude.
<6> It's clearly someone trying to be funny in the naming
<6> Very telling is this: "We divide git into high level ('porcelain') commands and low level ('plumbing') commands."
<11> there it was http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#head-90fa13ebe170116f1586156e73b549cc2135b784
<6> It's a redneckism, sure enough.
<11> Goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t
<6> "Global information tracker" <-- this one saves my sanity
<11> hehe
<10> http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git/applied/v2.6.14-rc5-mm1
<6> They're definitely tromping around in Larry-the-Plumber-space with the porcelain and plumbing references tho
<10> there's a list of the patchs



<10> but where are the patchs themselfs hiding?
<11> try ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.17-rc4/
<11> ehh ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.14-rc5/2.6.14-rc5-mm1/
<11> well back to work, cu
<12> hello. would anyone be able to help me with getting a gameport ms sidewinder gamepad working? i have been trying a number of things an have not had any success. kernel version is 2.6.16.16
<13> hi
<13> anyone have problems with dge-528t?
<12> hello. anyone able to help me get a gameport gamepad working? i have been trying to no avail. my latest attempt was to add all the modules to /etc/modules but it's still not working. kernel version is 2.6.16.16
<14> umm why add all modules?
<14> why notplug the gamepad in & check syslog forsomeevidence
<12> well, because i'm getting desperate. ;-)
<14> start with the logs first
<12> ok, let me have a look
<14> then plug log output into a search engine
<14> then read the page telling you how toooconfigure it & whichmodules/kernel you need too use it
<12> i have been searching for the problem with google. a lot. but not with any syslog output... if there is any
<12> gb: please take my word for it, it's not as if i haven't been trying man
<14> makes no diff too me,im just telling you what I'd try
<12> ok, thank you
<14> but youll need something too goon too begin with
<14> it may be that the kernel you have wont detect it, dunno
<14> but usually there will be some number or id code chucked out in a log sumwhere when you plug it in
<12> i also beleive i have hit on bad bug with the radeonfb driver when using an lcd monitor, if anybody would like to have a look at the kernel crash on pastebin
<14> again depends on your kernel,in case of a bug, try newer kernel; if same bug, try an older kernel
<14> and use a search engine sparingly for any information as it might save you some wasted bytes/compiling time
<12> hehe, well, i have had this kernel crash with kernel 2.6.15.1 and kernel 2.6.16.16. so, i'm thinking it may be in need of fixing. perhaps i should just mail in the bug report, although i am not sure where to mail it at the moment. just thought there mught possibly be someone on here
<12> that might want to have a look at it
<14> nope only ppl with nolives sit on irc :)
<12> lol
<14> no Lamer hunting please :P
<6> Hunting?
<6> Throw a rock and try not to hit one.
<12> there is nothing in the logs that is of any help. certainly no errors. they only thing i can even see that's related to the drivers in there is the followinf message...
<12> *following
<12> gameport: EMU10K1 is pci0000:03:0c.1/gameport0, io 0xdfe0, speed 1420kHz
<6> That's got nothing to do with the display driver.
<6> That's your sound card.
<12> yes.. i know
<12> i am trying to get 'gameport gamepad' working
<12> the radeonfb problem is a whole 'nother issue
<12> the display problem is a kernel crash... i do not have any idea of what to do about the radeonfb problem other than to possibly mail in a bug report
<14> onetinsoldier: as I said before your vid prob may very well be fixed in a later release, or if it's not, you might get around the bug by using a kernel before the bug was introduced
<12> gb: well thanks, but i think it's a problem that only a kernel coder can fix. i have reason to suspect that it's a problem in all 2.6.x kernels
<12> i'm not going to a 2.4.x kernel
<12> i'm using debain etch and it's been strongly recommended that i use a 2.6.x kernel for etch
<14> onetinsoldier: never suggested a 2.4, there are stacks of 2.6 too choose from & it's unlikely that you would be the first too experience the bug you describe
<12> i would agree, but i may be the first to have enough of an interest to try and report the problem.. maybe
<14> check the search engine first, if it turns up then you're not the first :)
<12> i have searched the web about the problem and have not come across another report about it.. yet
<14> ahh ok, how bout on lkml?
<14> that possibly the place too raise it
<15> what is the problem
<12> gb: like i pretty much said before, it's not as if i do not try to search first. but no, i cannot say that i have tried lkml
<12> Kevin: a kernel crash when trying to use radeonfb with lcd monitor
<14> onetinsoldier: ok go too kernel.org & checkout the lists available
<12> Kevin: as well as i absolutely cannot get a gameport gamepad working. one that is supposedly supported
<14> I do know there is lots of stuff being done on fb & in particular lcd support because I use both myself
<14> often thats one of the reasons I roll back too 2.4
<14> that & because I know my 2.4 kernel works
<12> Kevin: if you are interested i have a pastebin of the crash message.... http://pastebin.ca/58729
<12> gb: roger
<16> onetinsoldier: what radeon card chipset do you have?
<12> i don't care too awful much about getting the console framebuffer working, but i sure would like to get the gameport gamepad working
<12> bobbens: it's a sapphire(atI) radeon x800 xt pe
<14> any idea what it is exactly?
<12> gb: yeah, im fooling with like 5 or 6 drivers for the damn thing.. lol
<16> onetinsoldier: ooh a fancy smancy one, i feel your pain though, i have a ****load of problems, including *.18 not showing console output when booting up
<14> bobbens: thats user error :P
<12> chipset type is an R420 i believe
<12> for the vid card
<14> been playing too much nethack/slashem is your problem :)
