[opensuse-kernel] Kernel Package Retention Feature/purge-kernels script
by Freigeist 19 Oct '11

19 Oct '11

Hello all, I hope I am finally on the right mailinglist to addres this topic. I am running/testing the above feature in combination with the purge-kernels script on four machines for nearly two months now and I like it very much. I have added/uncommented these two lines in zypp.conf: "multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)" and "multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,latest-2,running" because I want to keep the new kernel (of course) and the last two working ones. The purge-kernels script is working fine as it removes old kernels during the next reboot following a new kernel install... exept for two packages: The kernel-source and the kernel-devel package are left on disk. These two packages still have to be removed manually via Yast2 or zypper. My questions concerning this problem are - is this behaviour intended and if so then why? - shouldn't the old -source and -devel package also be deleted, together with their corresponding kernel version? I think this is a great feature but it seems to be less useful if one still has to think of removing old -source ande -devel packages manually.

[opensuse-kernel] [PATCH] stb0899: Fix slow and not locking DVB-S transponder(s)
by Marcel 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

Hi, could this patch be added to the openSUSE-Kernel for 12.1? Without this patch, sometimes stb0899-based devices could not even tune some transponders, with this patch the general tuning times are much better on such devices. The patch will be accepted in the kernel, but this will happen too late for 12.1. http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg37565.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kernel] Issue installing VMware Workstation 8 on openSUSE 12.1 Beta 1

[opensuse-kernel] SLOW boot: device reported invalid CHS sector 0
by Felix Miata 09 Oct '11

09 Oct '11

[32 bit 12.1B1 freshly dup'd] lspci, hwinfo --disk, fdisk -l, dmesg, /var/log/boot.omsg, /var/log/boot.msg & /var/log/messages from booting without any eSATA HD attached is at http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/big31-sil3512-0hd.txt Two RC-210 SATA RTL and two RC-220 RTL PCI cards I bought from Newegg arrived yesterday. I put a 210 in one Dell, one 220 in another Dell, and tried one of each one at a time in a non-Dell built on a Biostar G31-M7 TE motherboard with G31/ICH7 chipset and P4HT (single core) CPU. Either card is recognized by the BIOS and the kernel well enough to load the applicable sata_sil module. However, booting with an eSATA HD attached to the SiL 3512's external port causes various failures, depending on which openSUSE release I try to boot. Some only take extra long to boot (11.0, 11.2, 11.4), while 12.1B1 with 3.1.rc7 don't appear capable of finishing a boot. Right now I'm looking at a boot screen showing [ 2023.8111498] and repeating the same messages over and over, one of which is in the subject. Another is lost interrupt (Status 0x50), another exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen, another hard resetting link. Early in the attempt to boot were a number of messages involving failure to initialize non-existent md devices. The system normally has two internal HDs with most partitions configured as software RAID1, but I pulled their cables and renamed mdadm.conf in order to simplify troubleshooting. Is there some way to accelerate timeout to finish booting and get logs and dmesg sooner? The numbers finally stopped at [ 2577.848249], but I don't know how to convert it to how long it took to boot. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/big31-sil3512-1hd.txt is logs from waiting for this forever boot with eSATA HD attached to finish. Anyone know what's going on? P.S. Choosing failsafe boot stanza, or older 3.0.0 or 3.1.rc5 kernels were no help. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
