USB Mandrake 10.
« on: April 24, 2004, 04:49:15 pm »
hello,

I\'ve got a new Mandrake 10.0 + zaurus 5500 3.3.6 pre-1
When zaurus is plugged dmesg read   :

usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 10
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 10, error -110
usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 11
usb 2-2: device not accepting address 11, error -110
 
Any suggestion ?

You have to reboot the Z.

The Z stops accepting the address given to communicate with the OS, it happens after a resume, or so...


I don\'t know why it happens.

There is an on-going problem with hotplugging / usbnet in Mdk 10.x.  I\'m trying to get help and identify what package to file a bug against, but noone else running cooker seems to have a Z \'cept me.

Hi!

Is there a package for 2.6.6 or did you compiled it your own?

Compiled it, after being told that it solves some USB problems.  Changelog list just shows that a 2.6.6rc2 kernel was sent out today, should hit the mirrors later today or tomorrow.

Got it, rc2 is alreay on the mirrors.

Do you use the .config which came with the source package? I tried to \"make rpm\" but got an error, do you use this feature or compile and install it by hand?


I\'m getting a usbnet segv with 2.6.5-tmb...

Oh well... Opie unstable was updated today.

I get a weird oops or some error if i yank the zaurus out of the cradle, but with properly ifdown\'ing usb0 and rmmod\'ing usbnet, it is fine. (debian)

I tried 2.6.6-rc2 and the changelog like they say states no changes, but there are some in the code.. anyways, I can\'t even get it to talk to the Zaurus.  so i\'m back to 2.6.5.

and i am noticing now that with this .6 RC1  on my zaurus, something crashes after a lot of idling in the cradle. gonna have to check dmesg to see what it is, the code it dumps is so large it fills Konsole\'s buffer. heh.

I got 2.6.6 rc2 to compile the nvidia driver, and it doesn\'t segv when I connect my Z. But hotplug doesn\'t bring up usb0.

May  3 14:07:37 di-bsantos net.agent[16158]: add event not handled

Could be changes in the hotplug package, since I\'m on cooker.


Anyone unable to compile the nvidia drivers on 2.6.6rc2?

I noticed the Makeflie must\'ve having some problem in understanding the kernel version, I got \"Unable to find module name\" kind of messages, even when passing -k and the like options to the nvidia binary. I used -x to unpack the driver build tree, them tinkered around the Makefile, and got it to compile by:

ln -s Makefile.kbuild Makefile (in usr/src/nv)
mv makefile makefile.wtv
export SYSSRC=/usr/src/linux-2.6.6-0.rc2.1mdk (used within the Makefile)
make install

I\'m still having the usb0 troubles.  Restored an old backup with kernel 2.6.3-2tmb and my Zaurus can be removed and replaced and usbnet works as expected.  Every kernel after that fails.  I\'m working with Thomas to see if we can find what is going on.  It may be fixed in 2.6.6 with the usb changes, but I\'m having nvidia and renegade mouse behavior ( bad mouse, stop, stop!, no, over here, no, here!  )

Here is what you need for compiling nvida modules with 2.6.6,   http://lwn.net/Articles/81399/
Seems the \"Improved external module support\" caused some new problems.  Which is why we play with cooker, for bug bites!  hehehe
