SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.29.1 Downloads - Update!

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I dont understand, why it works fine with me????

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

do you not use the pciehp_force=1 workaround jango? it shouldn't be needed on the stock jaunty kernel but some people blindly follow old guides and and it and it causes corruption

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I dont use any tweak, maybe is the reason.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I tested suspending with a stock 9.04 beta install, home on SDHC. I finished the install, rebooted, suspended. My SDHC was trashed. I would really like to know what you are doing to make it work Jango

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I installed CrunchBang Linux on my AA1 110. I used this guide to install CruchBang on my AA1: http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/howto/aspireone
When I come to the part that tells me to install Sickboys kernel, then the command doesn't work. To solve this I went to the Sickboy web site (http://www.aspireonekernel.com/#Downloads) and manually downloaded the kernel and the headers from the site. Then I installed them from Home directory on my AA1 by dubbleclicking in the .deb-files.

The problem is that something happened to my mobile connection after the installation of Sickboy's kernel. The Network Manager (the software for managing network connection in Ubuntu/CrunchBang) seems to have a different GUI and I cannot connect to Internet using my K610i SonyEricsson mobile. I try to add a new connection and so on, but nothing seems to help.

Why can't I install Sickboy's kernel the way is says in the guide?
Why isn't the mobile Internet connection work on CrunchBang after installation of Sickboy's kernel?

I used Ubuntu 8.10 before and I think it was the same problem connecting my AA1 by using my K610 SE mobile after an installation of Sickboy's kernel. Why isn't this working either?

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

The 8gb flash version of the One, called the A110L, comes in TWO hardware variants.
The difference is that one of them, the early production, has both card slots using chipsets
from the same manufacturer. The later production run uses two different manufacturers.

The new kernels, including Sickboys, handle the newer version correctly, and both readers
come up normally without any tweaks.

The earlier version, which most kernel writers ignore, needs the "pciehp pciehp_force=1"
statement for the right hand card reader to come up when the computer is booted without
a card in the slot.

A bit of research will reveal all, as this has been discussed in the Debian lists.

I *think* that using the "pciehp pciehp_force=1" option in the later hardware version is
what causes the diffculties.

You can find out which one you have by using "lsusb" with cards in the slots. It will reveal
the name of the manufacturer of the slot chipset. (both readers must be working for this
to work, or boot up limpus).

In the Debian lists there is a fix that will work with either chipset, but apparently needs the
kernel to be recompiled (again!). Sickboy's kernel is not at that point yet, as far as I know
because my right hand reader does not come up when booted, unless I have the
module "pciehp pciehp_force=1" in the /etc/modules file.

Mine One is an early model A110L

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

Maybe because i dint do any tweaks... i dont now, but it works for me my rc.local is like that:

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I tried suspending with an SDHC card mounted on /home with the stock 9.04 kernel and it didn't work. It only wiped the partition table which was easy to restore, unlike with Intrepid where it totally trashed the contents of the card.

However, with the sickboy kernel (for which I thank you sickboy) it seems to work perfectly. I still don't have the use of the right hand card reader unless there is a card in the slot at boot time but using the left hand card mounted on /home works fine suspending and resuming with no apparent problems. I wouldn't say my testing had been rigorous but in two days of use, I have experienced no problems so far.

The 2.6.29 kernel is expected to have code to sort this last problem so with any amount of luck, we are almost there getting Ubuntu working fully (after owning my One for 9 months).

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

what software do you use to backup home?

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

looking forward on your upcoming release it's good that there are people like you working on this and sharing it with others like me that does not have the time to help ourselves.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

9.04 has been changing daily.. we really cant which cant work or will until its official release. Personally, I also experience crash and data loss in some of the applications.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I have an early AOA150, using my kernels the SD slots do not show up as usb devices as all to lsusb, and they are the same devices. no corruption problems and I dont even use pciehp (it doesn't load anymore because it isn't needed ever since 2.6.29 rc1 or so)

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I'm seeing something very similar - mfg date given as 0809. I've got the 120GB HDD/WinXP model. This is my third unit (first two died, so I returned them), and haven't loading Linpus on it. Does this mean that if we had a working xD kernel module, that both slots would be able to read xD cards?

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

0808 manufacturing date here too, you know I haven't tried an XD in both slots so thats a good question I can't find my xd card at the moment but when I do I'll try it out. I suspect it doesn't have the connectors inside for it though and is just enabling it because the specs for the chipset have it.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I just upgraded to Jaunty yesterday, and installed the latest sickboy kernel (was using his kernel previously in 8.10).

Everything appears to work well, except CPU Frequency Scaling (panel applet gives an error when logging in).
The generic kernel that installs with Jaunty appears to support it just fine, so unfortunately I am using that kernel for the time being, until I figure this out.

Since it works with the Ubuntu kernel, and not with Sickboy's kernel, I am guessing it is a kernel/module issue.

Not sure if there is a module I have forgotten to load, or if the kernel just doesn't support it.

Has anyone else found a solution to this problem (or can they confirm that it is not just my machine?)

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

rsync is my favourite backup and copying utility and is fairly easy to use and quick.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
whats listed?

try adding acpi_cpufreq and cpufreq_userspace to your /etc/modules (and optionally /etc/initramfs-tools/modules then run sudo update-initramfs), just looked at the config they are loading them as modules and it might not be loading.

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

Thanks - those were the missing modules. Adding them to /etc/modules fixed it. I wonder why they used to be detected, but are not anymore?

Btw - scaling_available_governers contains: userspace ondemand performance

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

most likely it probably loaded them automatically in 8.10 but they changed the kernel config in jaunty to build them in instead of as modules so it assumes thats still the case and doesn't load them anymore. that or you dont have the cpufreq utils installed anymore

 

Re: SlCKB0Y Kernel 2.6.28 Downloads - Update with Website!

I'm pretty sure no recent kernel has the xD module. The module used in the Linpus kernel was rejected for various reasons by the kernel developers; it compiled for me with kernel 2.6.26 after a few tweaks (hard coding several values), but didn't work.
