Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't start from Desktop CD or USB with syslinux boot
  loader on Pentium M 1.6Ghz or faster Pentium M CPU - displays error
  message about missing PAE feature in CPU, but *the same* *Ubuntu
  12.04* Desktop CD/LiveUSB starts fine on *the same CPU* (and same PAE
  kernel) if GRUB boot loader is used, for example when WUBI or LiveUSB
  with GRUB boot loader, like Multisystem
  (http://liveusb.info/dotclear/index.php?pages/install ) is used!

  The error message is:
  "This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU: pae.
  Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for you CPU."

  THIS IS AN IMPORTANT REGRESSION! People are able to install and successfully 
use Ubuntu 12.04 on such pretty new hardware, like IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop with 
Pentium M 1700Mhz processor, but the bug in syslinux (or something related) 
forbids Ubuntu 12.04 installation.
  This bug is reproducible on lots of computers, there are several log files 
and /proc/cpuinfo file attached to this bugreport, AFAIK it's enough to reopen 
this bug.

  The System has a  Intel(R) Celeron(R) M processor 1300MHz with the

  The CPU should be PAE capable (as many other Pentium/Celeron M CPU`s

  The problem  is that cpuinfo often does not correctly report about PAE
  capability of Celeron/Pentium M.

  I know there exists a long bugreport for this since 12.04, but since
  it`s not listed as an open defect for trusty in the qatracker, i
  repost to raise awareness.

  Since trusty will be a LTS release, please take into account that you
  lock out thousands of users with such cpu`s (older thinkpads for
  example) for a long time and such users will either need to do lot`s
  of work to make lubuntu run on such a system, or they will (more
  likely) switch to a different distro like debian.

  So, please someone either care for this issue _now_ to have it fixed
  for 14.04 or please close the existing bugreport and reject it as
  invalid/won´t fix instead of  putting users off from month to month
  and making them waste their time with reading this bugticket or adding

2014-01-15 Thread roland aus köln
more than one and a half months gone by and nothing happened.

14.04 will be out soon, and i swear it will still have that pentium M
issue.

i don`t know what you 101 guys will do, but i have one task on my todo:

wiping all computers in our fablab and replacing lubuntu with a linux
distro w/o planned obsolescence inside.

2014-01-21 Thread roland aus köln
regarding the usb id it´s not an issue in the trusty kernel anymore
(besides that there is an issue with the firmware-nonfree), but the
issue exists with current ubuntu releases and that makes it a pain to
keep this adapter working on different pc`s - as every kernel update
breaks the wifi.

this bugreport should have been tagged for saucy, unfortunately i don´t
know how to tag a bugreport for a specific ubuntu release - otherwise i
would have tagged it for saucy

2014-02-27 Thread roland aus köln
Luke, thanks for letting us know and for the credits.

What you write is exactly the reason why i spent my free time on help
fixing this and it`s also the reason, why i was constantly nagging here
- and why i was (or still am, as it`s not fixed yet) very dissapointed,
too.

I hope that ubuntu will put the fix in very soon, as release date for
14.04 is just some weeks ahead

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 930447] Re: Unable to start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux

2014-02-27 Thread roland aus köln
i read "experimental" in those links - and i think there are people who
dislike installing their operating system in a re-packaged way  from a
community based, untrusted source.  nothing against you, nio, you appear
trustworthy - but i`m one of those.

if all the community efforts had been put into the kernel fix instead of
fake pae or building alternative installation methods  , then we would
not sit here and discuss.  it may be a logical step, that these
workaround exist, but it`s always better to adress the root cause
instead of tempering with a symptom.

it was good work to provide those workarounds, but it would be even
better work to integrate the kernel fix from upstream now and help
bugging  the ubuntu devs to do so.

while writing this, i bet the kernel  based fix had probably alrady
being done if the community workarounds never existed, because while
they existed the ubuntu devs could lean back and tell the user: Pentium
M? naah, that`s old, watch out for fake-pae and alternative installer
disks as a workaround. that probably HELPED a LOT of users but it did
not help fixing the root cause, because many users never needed to
complain because of that. linux people like tinkering...oh yes.

2014-02-28 Thread roland aus köln
please let`s stop discussion as any further discussion does not add
anything valuable to the solution.

i think 272 comments (=thousands of lines of text) is enough discussion
for a problem which can be entirely fixed for everyone by some kernel
developer adding 22 lines of code to the linux kernel.

apparently, the trusty-tahr daily build cd-images already contain the
fixed kernel, so if you have an affected system and want to try
installing (l/x)ubuntu you can get them here:

2014-03-06 Thread roland aus köln
one thing to add - on lubuntu iso i just tested, entering a kernel param
at boot/installation-time does not seem to find it`s way into grub.cfg -
so it needs to be re-added after installation.

since i´m not a long-time ubuntu user, i`m unsure if this a bug or by
design

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 930447] Re: Unable to start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux

2014-03-07 Thread roland aus köln

No, it shouldn`t.

If booted via syslinux and adding forcepae as a bootparam, it should
boot - regardless if being botted via grub 16-bit mode or via syslinux
or whatever.

could you please re-check if you typed it correctly?

does your method of creating a bootable iso really use the kernel from
the recent cd-image, or maybe there`s an older kernel in place?

if that fails for you and if you are that your cpu does have pae, please
post the contents of /proc/cpuinfo.

you may attach an usb cd-rom to your r51 and try to directly boot from
that.

i´m curious what`s going wrong here.

oh, apparently kubuntu daily-build was a little bit  "behind", i did
only check ubuntu and lubuntu and did not expect, that kubuntu iso

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 930447] Re: Unable to start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux

2014-02-12 Thread roland aus köln
they are probably putting the focus on the wrong things and/or are
understaffed.

i will not use ubuntu anymore because of this, because ubuntu does not
satisfy my expectation of  a healty user and developer community.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 930447] Re: Unable to start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux

2014-02-13 Thread roland aus köln
>May be "one-hundred-papercuts" is the right place if you feel a bug
doesn't get enough attention foralongtime.

that`s a pointer, thanks.

>Another valuable thought is that one cannot blame the ubuntu-people
solely for not getting this right

yes, for sure intel also is to blame, but when the ubuntu team decided
to drop non-pae kernel  ( http://ubuntu.5.x6.nabble.com/Dropping-i386
-non-PAE-as-a-supported-kernel-flavour-in-Precise-Pangolin-td366373.html
) they should better care for the consequences instead of ignoring the
problems of hundreds of users.  and , they cannot say that nobody
complained - there had been complaints already at time of the
announcement.

i would have no problem when ubuntu was simply ubuntu desktop, but there
is ubuntu server, there is ltsp, there is lubuntu and there is xubuntu,
and these are all suitable or even meant for old hardware. hardware you
cannot use with these ubuntu derivates anymore.  and there are many more
ubuntu based distros - get a clue at:
http://distrowatch.com/search.php?basedon=Ubuntu

so, deciding to drop non-pae ubuntu team also decided killing old
hardware, as users are more likely to switch to new hardware than
switching to a distro like debian.

>@ roland aus koeln: Keep in mind: a bug report disappears from list
once it's marked as invalid. But is also appears in trusty

i neither maintain this bug nor can i remember touching this bug`s
status information, i´m not even sure if i can change a bug`s status at
all.

what i really no not understand is why adding my rather non-intrusive
patch to the ubuntu kernel as a workaround to the "drop-non-
pae"-decision is such a no-go and why kernel devs telling they would
probably have a look and probably make a better version of it and then i
never ever get any response again. to me this looks like they neither
put attention on this issue nor do they appreciate/esteem work/fixes
from the user community, as the work i put into this is for nothing and
just a waste of time.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1058748] Re: Default kernel requires PAE 12.10 beta 2

2013-11-23 Thread roland aus köln
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 930447 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930447

Christopher, 
Lubuntu is based on Ubuntu, and so Lubuntu does not boot either, it gives the 
same error.

Shame on (L)Ubuntu that they ignore users with older hardware,
especially if the older hardware HAS PAE support, but only the CPU (like
Pentium M) doesn`t correctly tell about.

I`m sure, it could be easily workarounded in the installer, but it´s  a
matter of goodwill.

Let`s call it planned obsolescence

  Testing:
  testing 12.10 beta 2 on spare IBM thinkpad t41 outputs following error on 
startup:

  "
  This kernel requires the following features not present on the CPU:
  pae
  Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU
  "

  Proposed problem:
  The only LiveCD supporting 32bit processors requires PAE. This makes the 
LiveCD not work for 32bit processors not supporting PAE, while the benefit is 
making 32bit processors with PAE support support more RAM. Effectively the 
LiveCD makes life a little easier for people slightly newer old 32 bit 
computers if they have alot of RAM for a 32 bit computer or it prevents it from 
starting if their computer's CPU does not support PAE, physical address 
extension.

  12.10 beta 2 + 32 bit CPU without PAE = not Ubuntu user
  12.10 beta 2 + 32 bit CPU with PAE = Ubuntu user with access to 4GB+ RAM out 
of the box, if they have that much RAM

  12.10 beta 2 + 64 bit CPU = Uneffected

  Proposed resolution:
  Change the kernel package on the LiveCD to the one supporting 32 bit 
processors but not requiring PAE

  New LiveCD beta not requiring PAE + 32 bit CPU without PAE = happy Ubuntu 
tester
  New LiveCD beta not requiring PAE + 32 bit CPU with PAE = happy Ubuntu tester 
which has to install kernel after install for access to greater then 4GB RAM if 
they have that much RAM

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 930447] Re: Unable to start Ubuntu 12.04 live CD with syslinux loader on Pentium M x86 Laptop due to bug in PAE kernel, initramfs or syslinux

2013-12-04 Thread roland aus köln
it`s based on information from cpu-world.com, they have a large "real
world" cpuid database (user submitted data).

it`s ineed not tested, but based on the infos at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu-fake-PAE#Test  i would
logically assume, that all of these behave identically. they all have no
PAE flag shown and are the only "non pre-dinosaur-age" cpu`s missing
that feature.

i`m curious about the 1,2 ghz one listed, as this is not in the database
at all.

oh, and i see there is one of the 1600Mhz Pentium M with AFE9FBBF, so
this one could fail to work, too.

No further progress ?

ubuntu/lubuntu/xubunto 14.04 & co will soon get off the starting blocks
- i heard it will also be a LTS.

And all of those still being shipped with a known problem affecting
thousands of users ?

Please, Ubuntu team put an hour effort into this, this would save much
hassle and thousands of "workaround-hours"  for your user community !

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1073089] Re: ubuntu kernel does not support gadgetfs

2024-02-21 Thread roland aus köln
is there a reason why ubuntu still has no dummy_hcd module, i.e. is
building kernel without CONFIG_USB_DUMMY_HCD=m ?

this sucks , and other distributions inherit this

  The Ubuntu kernel does not appear to support gadgetfs:

  $ sudo modprobe g_mass_storage file=/tmp/fake_usb_disk
  FATAL: Error inserting g_mass_storage

  This seems to have been resolved in Igloo (see bug 923674) so is presumably a 
case of a cherry-pick?
