** can't synthesize root hub events
The pci_hotplug kernel module talks to userspace /sbin/hotplug, which
uses the scripts that are grep'ed below.
I have this message, and it is benign.

Try this:

qaz:~# grep "synthesize pci" /etc/hotplug/*
/etc/hotplug/pci.rc:  echo "** can't synthesize pci hotplug events"
qaz:~#
The solution is in the hotplug init scripts somewhere, though I have not
investigated yet myself. If you find anything out, you should post back
here.

I had the same problem, so I coppied /usr/share/apps/kdm/kde.desktop to

You were given the answer.  Do you expect somebody else to do the work?

Look at /etc/network/interfaces.  Look for hotplug.  Use common sense.

I Have NO hotplug devices 
The only way to make my driver work was to add hotplug
support in my kernel, otherwise it just crashes.
I don't expect someone to do the work but after
numerous attempts, i'm asking on this list.

here's the /etc/network/interfaces file

auto eth1
#iface eth1 inet dhcp
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.21
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 195.168.0.255
wireless_essid  NETGEAR
wireless_mode   Managed
#wireless_rate  auto
#wireless_channel   11
wireless_keys:lacle
wireless_nick   Laptop

Maybe the hotplug reacts because of "auto" but it
shouldn't or there might be a way to disable this behavior.

very nice tool, it works also with WLAN (ndiswrapper), if the WLAN interface 
is already pre-configured with iwconfig.

Therefor my question is, is there a designed way to pre-configure a network 
interface without activating it?

My current workaround is to use the lo interface to pre-configure wlan0 in 
/etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
pre-up iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc essid afulinux
...

wlan0 has no auto statement and therefor is only activated by ifplugd if the 
HF part of the WLAN device is turned on (my notebook has a key to turn it on 
and off). This is working fine with my current configuration, but however, 
the configuration itself looks like a workaround for me...

Is there a designed way to configure things like this?

Watch These Videos And Learn How To Publish Your First Web Site!

[James Maduk]

Hi ,

I have a quick question for you...

Would you rather spend hours, weeks and months plowing through
a technical journal or paying an arm and a leg to a graphics
expert to get your first website built?

How about neither!

Why not simply watch VIDEOS?

I just finished putting together a new video product that I
wanted you to know about.  It's quite unique.

It's called "Build My First Web Site", and it gives you instant
access to Videos that are literally jam-packed with
just about everything you'd ever want to know about publishing
your very own web site.

You can check it out here:

=> http://www.BuildMyFirstWebSite.com

This is an easy way to learn.

Real easy!

So easy all you have to do is follow along. In fact, I start
from the absolute beginning. Follow the simple step-by-step
instructions and you can have your own web site up and published
in no time. In fact it can be done in minutes - if you follow
these videos!

Watch hours upon hours of pure solid instructions. This
is amazing.

There's no more frustration, guessing, confusion or trying to
figure it out all on your own with these videos. It's like I'm
right there showing you step-by-step exactly what steps to take
to publish your very own web site.


Over the last 5 years I've created hundreds of training Videos,
and "Build My First Web Site" is certainly an easy to use
package. 

See for yourself! 

Check this out:
=> http://www.BuildMyFirstWebSite.com


Expect The Best!

Sure you have hotplug devices.  You've demonstrated that turning 
off Hotplug for pci makes it stop working.

So google!  It didn't take me very long to find why hotplug handles the
"auto" device:

I presume you can use a /etc/init.d/wlan script to do iwconfig, and
put something like:

iface wlan0 inet manual
up 
down ...

on your /etc/network/interfaces file

Sound, framebuffer and keyboard problems with a Toshiba 2410

[Cournapeau David]

Hi there,

   I am a quite happy user of a toshiba 2410 under debian for more than 
a year now. Most things work quite well, but some don't, and I fail to 
see any way to resolve them on the internet.
   Mostly because of the great ACPI support, I am using a 2.6.4 kernel 
(standart sources from kernel.org, no patch). I have some problems, 
which can be annoying:


   - I am using alsa for the sound. But there seems to be a problem: 
when the kernel modprobe the modules, it says something like


" MC'97 1 converters and GPIO not ready (0xf200)
Apr 27 08:54:05 gabou-laptop kernel: intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: 
measured 49419 usecs

Apr 27 08:54:05 gabou-laptop kernel: intel8x0: clocking to 48000"

Does someone know what the first line means ?

   - I am trying to use the framebuffer. I know it works, because when 
I tried a Gentoo, it booted in a nice 1024x768 console. Which modules do 
I have to use for that ? Last time I try nvidia.ko from the frame buffer 
modules directory, it stopped my laptop :( Can I use it with the 
binary-only driver ? (the open source driver seems to poorly support my 
chipset, which is a Geforce 4 for laptop)


   - I have a lot of messages like this one:

"Apr 27 09:19:25 gabou-laptop kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed 
(translated set 2, code 0x39 on isa0060/serio0).
Apr 27 09:19:25 gabou-laptop kernel: atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes 39 
' to make it known."


I know there is a problem with keyboard on Toshiba laptop, but didn't 
find anything useful on this error message, and if it appears while I am 
in a console (ie no in X), it can 'disable' the keyboard, which forces 
me to reboot the laptop :(


   Thank you very much,

   David

** can't synthesize root hub events


The pci_hotplug kernel module talks to userspace /sbin/hotplug, which
uses the scripts that are grep'ed below.

I have this message, and it is benign.

Try this:

qaz:~# grep "synthesize pci" /etc/hotplug/*
/etc/hotplug/pci.rc:  echo "** can't synthesize pci hotplug events"
qaz:~#

The solution is in the hotplug init scripts somewhere, though I have not
investigated yet myself. If you find anything out, you should post back
here.

Two things from make menuconfig: (kernel 2.6.4)

CONFIG_HOTPLUG:

I had the same problem, so I coppied /usr/share/apps/kdm/kde.desktop to

now KDE and Gnome are available in gdm..

You were given the answer.  Do you expect somebody else to do the work?

Look at /etc/network/interfaces.  Look for hotplug.  Use common sense.

I Have NO hotplug devices 
The only way to make my driver work was to add hotplug
support in my kernel, otherwise it just crashes.
I don't expect someone to do the work but after
numerous attempts, i'm asking on this list.

here's the /etc/network/interfaces file

auto eth1
#iface eth1 inet dhcp
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.21
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 195.168.0.255
wireless_essid  NETGEAR
wireless_mode   Managed
#wireless_rate  auto
#wireless_channel   11
wireless_keys:lacle
wireless_nick   Laptop

Maybe the hotplug reacts because of "auto" but it
shouldn't or there might be a way to disable this behavior.

very nice tool, it works also with WLAN (ndiswrapper), if the WLAN interface 
is already pre-configured with iwconfig.

Therefor my question is, is there a designed way to pre-configure a network 
interface without activating it?

My current workaround is to use the lo interface to pre-configure wlan0 in 
/etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
pre-up iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc essid afulinux
...

wlan0 has no auto statement and therefor is only activated by ifplugd if the 
HF part of the WLAN device is turned on (my notebook has a key to turn it on 
and off). This is working fine with my current configuration, but however, 
the configuration itself looks like a workaround for me...

Is there a designed way to configure things like this?

Watch These Videos And Learn How To Publish Your First Web Site!

[James Maduk]

Hi ,

I have a quick question for you...

Would you rather spend hours, weeks and months plowing through
a technical journal or paying an arm and a leg to a graphics
expert to get your first website built?

How about neither!

Why not simply watch VIDEOS?

I just finished putting together a new video product that I
wanted you to know about.  It's quite unique.

It's called "Build My First Web Site", and it gives you instant
access to Videos that are literally jam-packed with
just about everything you'd ever want to know about publishing
your very own web site.

You can check it out here:

=> http://www.BuildMyFirstWebSite.com

This is an easy way to learn.

Real easy!

So easy all you have to do is follow along. In fact, I start
from the absolute beginning. Follow the simple step-by-step
instructions and you can have your own web site up and published
in no time. In fact it can be done in minutes - if you follow
these videos!

Watch hours upon hours of pure solid instructions. This
is amazing.

There's no more frustration, guessing, confusion or trying to
figure it out all on your own with these videos. It's like I'm
right there showing you step-by-step exactly what steps to take
to publish your very own web site.


Over the last 5 years I've created hundreds of training Videos,
and "Build My First Web Site" is certainly an easy to use
package. 

See for yourself! 

Check this out:
=> http://www.BuildMyFirstWebSite.com


Expect The Best!

Sure you have hotplug devices.  You've demonstrated that turning 
off Hotplug for pci makes it stop working.

So google!  It didn't take me very long to find why hotplug handles the
"auto" device:

I presume you can use a /etc/init.d/wlan script to do iwconfig, and
put something like:

iface wlan0 inet manual
up 
down ...

on your /etc/network/interfaces file
