New kernel 2.6.31-14 on repository (based on vanilla 2.6.31.4).

found !
You have to add "rootflags=noload" to your menu.lst,at the kernel line, and you get rid of the journal from your system partition. (with the noload in the fstab ofcourse)

I'm glad you have found the solution, thanks for sharing it with us.

Hi voRia,
I have a question about the kernel:

I had recently bought a Samsung E252 (comperable with R522) which have nearly the same Fn-Keys like the NC10. But have a Core2Duo-CPU inside so it runs properly with a 64bit-Kernel. How I get the Fn-functions also in this Notbook like the NC10? Were the differences to the NC10-Kernel too much for compiling a 64bit-Issue?

Your Fn-Key-Sripts are running well, but only Fn-Sleep, Fn2 , Brightness und Fn10-12 will do, Fn4 - Fn9 are without response. :-|

I had done a workaround with desktop-icons.

Regards
André

The Fn-F9 script is specific for the wireless card used by NC10. It removes/inserts the 'ath5k' module in order to toggle the wireless. It's highly probable that the E252 uses a different wireless device, so you have to modify the script and let it work with the kernel module you need.
Easily done: open the file '/usr/lib/nc10/wifi.sh' and replace every 'ath5k' instance with the name of the kernel module for your wireless device.

About the Fn-F4, first of all check if and how it's recognized by using the 'xev' command line utility, then let me know.

Thanks, I don't know wich card exactly is used, but an ath5k driver is also running. With manually started script "sudo nc10 wifi", the wifi is running well. But not with the Fn9-Key.

Using the 2.6.31-14. Using my Huawei E169 USB Modem causes NetworkManager to crash. NM will not restart whilst the E169 modem is plugged in. Once removed NM will restart and networking is restored.

Using a stock Jaunty 2.6.28-15 generic kernel this does not happen.
I have used previous 2.6.31 kernels where this worked but I don't have them installed right now to tell you which one.

Is this a known problem? (Perhaps bug 446146?)

I have also tested a Huawei-Stick with German D1-Net, it runs well without problems with the "-14-generic"

I also have problems with the USB Modem using the same kernel on Karmic. However there the USB modem is just not recognised and the bug 446146 applies. NetworkManager does not crash.

Here I am on Jaunty using Voria's 2.6.31-14 kernel. Using the USB E169 modem here causes NetworkManager to crash and it will not restart until removed. Going back to the current Jaunty kernel (2.6.28-15) fixes the problem.

With this info, there must be something wrong in the 2.6.31 kernel that 1) does not allow the USB modem to work and 2) subsequently crashes NM.

Any advice on how to go about trying to identify the cause of the NM crash. This is what I see in the /var/log/syslog when starting NM with the USB stick in.

Can you show the outputs of some logs?

So I had found out, that I use an E220, you use an E169? May be thats the difference?

This set of messages is repeated until I remove the stick. NM has stopped and will not start. Last time removing the stick also took out hald. Once NM and hald were restart then networking was back to normal.

Code:

cat syslog | grep hal

Looks like pulseaudio is getting involved where it is not invited!

This seems to be a problem:

Code:

Oct 22 11:25:24 JMFTheVCI kernel: [14094.596745] option: option_instat_callback: error -108

Probably a pci device mapping error, but I'm not an expert :-|

That is a useful post but it does not resolve my problem.

My USB modem is being correctly picked up. Yes, it is seen as usb-storage initially and using the commands listed in that link do help. However NetworkManager is still dead.

Remember that my USB modem works perfectly with the Jaunty 2.6.28 kernel. The USB stick is recognised and works first time with NetworkManager.

I suppose I will just have to wait until they fix the issue in the Karmic kernel (2.6.31-whatever) and then hopefully Voria will publish that kernel for Jaunty.

[Personally I would like to see Jaunty supported for a while longer as Voria, who is providing such a useful service to the NC10 community, is thinking of dropping all support except for Karmic once it is GA. I think that Karmic has too many open bugs at present whereas, for me, Jaunty is very stable.]

[NC10] Kernel 2.6.31
