Here's an article on setting up the network to work automatically with
wireless/ethernet. It worked for me on a T43. YMMV, of course. :-)

apt-getable 2.6 kernel snapshots [Fwd: snapshots archive]

Hello,

This may be useful for people who would like to try out if the latest
kernel helps to overcome kernel/driver related problems on laptops.

Hi folks

Some of you already recognized the topic in #debian-kernel, which refers
to
| deb http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel {sid,trunk} main

This archive includes daily snapshots of the sid and trunk branches of
linux-2.6. Currently it builds s390, powerpc and i386 binaries.

If someone is willing to spend some (or better, much) cpu power to build
other arches, he may ask for upload permissions or w-b access.

Also you may request snapshots of other parts of the debian-kernel
packages.

Bastian

Flavio posted on the fglrx list that a new 8.24 version compatible with
X.org 7.0 is available for testing.

Hello Dan,

Use apt-get to remove gdm, re-boot and you'll, hopefully :-), be shown
the command line login. After logging in, run "startx". Use
"update-alternatives" to choose the priority of your WM. You can also
try the "wmanager" package that lets you choose your WM on X starting.

Hope this helps,

Loss of hardware acceleration after fglrx upgrade to 8.28.8-0.1 in sid on a Thinkpad T43

2006-09-02 Thread LUK ShunTim
Hello,

After upgrading from version 8.24.8 to 8.28.8-0.1 in sid on a Thinkpad T43, I
observed this strange behaviour. Kernel is 2.6.17-2-686.

$ glxgears -printfps
1127 frames in 5.0 seconds = 225.244 FPS
1120 frames in 5.0 seconds = 223.986 FPS
1112 frames in 5.0 seconds = 222.386 FPS
1133 frames in 5.0 seconds = 226.586 FPS
1132 frames in 5.0 seconds = 226.386 FPS
1118 frames in 5.0 seconds = 223.586 FPS
1070 frames in 5.0 seconds = 213.906 FPS
15255 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3050.958 FPS
28449 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5689.754 FPS
26781 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5352.986 FPS
1050 frames in 5.0 seconds = 209.989 FPS
1080 frames in 5.0 seconds = 215.987 FPS
19741 frames in 5.0 seconds = 3948.142 FPS
27631 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5526.118 FPS
27298 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5459.505 FPS
27656 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5531.150 FPS
24765 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4952.919 FPS
28035 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5606.998 FPS
27900 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5579.997 FPS
27913 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5582.503 FPS
27679 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5535.743 FPS
28375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5674.939 FPS
28409 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5681.744 FPS
28356 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5671.131 FPS
28563 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5712.597 FPS
27857 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5571.102 FPS
28735 frames in 5.0 seconds = 5727.678 FPS
29099 frames in 5.1 seconds = 5744.930 FPS
27424 frames in 5.1 seconds = 5389.797 FPS
1046 frames in 5.0 seconds = 209.094 FPS
998 frames in 5.0 seconds = 199.588 FPS
1061 frames in 5.0 seconds = 212.187 FPS
1121 frames in 5.0 seconds = 224.186 FPS

No hardware acceleration, most of the time and then fps shoots up to a high
value which appears to be incorrect. Grateful for any pointer.

Regards,
ST

I've in fact reverted back to 8.24. And at this moment, I don't have the
T43 with me. I'll report back later when it's back.

Thanks very much for all the help,

Thanks to all the people who sent me the ideas. I can revert back to
8.24 and kernel 2.6.16 when I need hardware acceleration. When I have
more time, I'll try to look at it again. May as well be a kernel
relate-related issue.

On my debian/unstable, the group is called cdrom. I guess it should be
the same for testing.

Hello Micha,

Subsequently I filed a bug report to debian bugs and learnt something new.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=390361

In a nutshell,
1. hardware acceleration *is* enabled.
2. glxgears is not really an appropriate tool for checking this.

Regards,
ST

Presumably you have a Savage/IX /MX video card (My T20 has this one), did you
use this patched version of X-server instead of the one from the original debian
distribution?

http://www.probo.com/timr/savagemx.html

It should work.

Setting the device to /dev/psaux works fine for my T20. 
And maybe you know this already, /dev/mouse is normally a symbolic link.

In this connection, I'd like to ask for some information. After I upgraded to
woody,
I lost my gpm. Apparently /dev/gpmctl gone missing and I was not able to get in
back.
I was told that it may be a pipe but creating it manually doesn't work. Anyone
has any such experience or the answer?

Undefined symbols in pcmcia modules in potato

2000-11-23 Thread LUK ShunTim
Dear all,

I installed pcmcia-modules-2.2.17_3.1.20-2k1 and there was a number of 
"undefined symbols" messages when the pcmcia modules are inserted. 
The problems seems to be a kernel incompatibility. 
The package page at debian says that it's for kernel 2.2.17 package
version1:2.2.17-1 but the kernel image is kernel-image-2.2.17 2.2.17pre6-1.

Has anyone encounter this before? Will there be a compatible kernel image soon
or maybe I got it wrong somewhere?

Regards,
ST

Does the winmodem work out of the box with this unstable installation? 
In particular, what version of ppp is it using?
