[14:57:18] <seb_kuzminsky> ju-emb: are you Juergen Gnoss on the mailing list?
[14:57:40] <ju-emb> that's right
[14:57:41] <seb_kuzminsky> i gave you bad instructions yesterday
[14:57:43] <ju-emb> hi seb
[14:57:55] <seb_kuzminsky> the kernel debs are on w.l.o, but the linuxcnc debs are on the buildbot
[14:57:58] -!- geografa has quit [Client Quit]
[14:58:04] <seb_kuzminsky> deb http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org precise master-rt
[14:58:10] <seb_kuzminsky> (unsigned, unfortunately)
[14:58:30] <ju-emb> ok I'll change that
[14:58:37] -!- tinkerer [tinkerer!~tinkerer@mail.play-pla.net] has joined #linuxcnc-devel
[14:59:18] <ju-emb> the kernel from the first instruction panics on my machine
[14:59:43] <ju-emb> still trying to figure out what's happening
[15:00:50] <ju-emb> Kernel panics and say's he cannot access rootfs of sda3
[15:03:24] <cradek> it seems really broken that the rtai kernel doesn't use an initrd. it seems like lots of hardware is going to fail because of that.
[15:04:52] <ju-emb> what motherboards do you use?
[15:05:41] <cradek> I use free junkbox stuff
[15:06:12] <cradek> currently free junkbox boards are P4 era, and they usually work fine
[15:06:28] <cradek> I have a strong aversion to buying anything new :-)
[15:06:28] <ju-emb> but what's the minimal CPU
[15:06:56] <ju-emb> I have a lot of that junk around here
[15:06:56] -!- Veticus has quit [Max SendQ exceeded]
[15:07:10] <cradek> I still find the faster P3 chips quite usable for everything but development (lots of compiling)
[15:07:28] <cradek> people have different standards - so the question is hard to answer
[15:07:48] -!- Veticus has quit [Max SendQ exceeded]
[15:08:12] -!- Komzpa has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[15:08:12] <ju-emb> for compiling I use a cluster, so no hard feelings
[15:08:34] -!- Veticus has quit [Max SendQ exceeded]
[15:09:07] <cradek> heck people are using things like the beagles now, which seem about as capable as good mid-90s PCs

[15:09:23] <cradek> they spend a lot of time managing expectations, though
[15:09:29] <ju-emb> last night after the kernel panics, I got to bed but started compiling the kernel on the same machine with i core
[15:09:57] <ju-emb> still compiling

[15:14:07] <ju-emb> cradek: I'm not right into the RTAI , what's the hard part of the RTAI compared to the others?
[15:15:00] -!- micges has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[15:15:43] <seb_kuzminsky> ju-emb: what hardware connects your sda on that machine? is it sata?
[15:15:48] <seb_kuzminsky> oops, bbl, work
[15:16:13] <ju-emb> ATA at that machine
[15:16:45] <cradek> the normal ubuntu kernel boots fine, I assume?
[15:16:59] <ju-emb> that's right
[15:18:57] <ju-emb> the machine has SATA connectors, but HDD is connected with ribbon cable
[15:21:10] <ju-emb> the other machine that was planned to use in that test, stopped working yesterday, I have to change some Cap's in the PSU
[15:21:13] <cradek> I suspect all scsi systems are broken too
[15:22:41] <cradek> if this kernel is made with make-kpkg the fix might (might) be as easy as adding --initrd

[16:26:26] <mozmck> cradek: I think memleak does not link initrd and didn't he do a lot/most of the work on the new rtai stuff?
[16:26:50] <mozmck> s/link/like
[16:27:14] <ju-emb> seb : the repo
[16:27:16] <ju-emb> deb http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org precise master-rt
[16:27:32] <ju-emb> is there a repo deb-src as well?
[16:33:33] <cradek> mozmck: I hate to comment on another's feelings, but initrd is positively the linux/debian/ubuntu way to load drivers early enough to boot with, and I suspect trying to go without it will cause suffering
[16:34:06] <memleak> i dont do any .deb packaging, seb does all that
[16:34:25] <mozmck> I don't know enough about it, but I thought remembered memleak saying something like that.
[16:34:45] <memleak> but all the RTAI code i work on.. well.. previously did
[16:34:57] <mozmck> there he is! do you not like initrd? why?
[16:35:10] <cradek> ah ok
[16:35:16] <cradek> I bet seb will fix it then :-)
[16:35:33] <memleak> i dont use initrds because i just have the kernel do its thing
[16:36:48] <cradek> initrd isn't usually needed if you build a kernel special for one machine

[16:40:55] <ju-emb> I'll try both repos
[16:41:23] <memleak> but yeah after i rewrote and forked the RTAI tree and brought everything up to speed i just stopped working on RTAI

[17:00:19] <cradek> I have no idea what that means
[17:00:37] <cradek> I don't plan to form a company to give linuxcnc support, if that's what you're asking me
[17:00:56] <cradek> of course you can, if you want
[17:02:13] <memleak> i think he means to pay developer(s) to add support or do certain things to the tree upon payment, such as special purpose things that wouldn't be practical for the public tree
[17:02:14] <ju-emb> I'm thinking of all that work and time you guys spent on that

[19:53:13] <memleak> is comedi the one that uses scilab?
[19:53:21] <memleak> if so you can turn off comedi in RTAI
[19:54:16] <memleak> linuxcnc doesnt use comedi at all though, it only uses the core parts of it

[20:22:16] <seb_kuzminsky> yes
[20:22:22] <cradek> nice, thanks for doing it
[20:22:26] <cradek> I hope my advice was worth something
[20:22:41] <seb_kuzminsky> the rtai-modules are packaged poorly, so you have to uninstall the old rtai-modules before you can install the new ones
[20:23:04] <ju-emb> OK
[20:23:12] <seb_kuzminsky> cradek: your advise made the linux-image maintain an initrd, which is certainly better than before, i hope it also fixes ju-emb 's booting problem

[21:11:52] <cradek> so yeah (would have to try it if you need it to work in all modes - not sure about that)
[21:12:20] <PCW> OK that would be better to hook in to the FF1 than the PID comps difference
[21:12:41] <PCW> (since its a cycle late)
[21:13:43] <PCW> it will be pretty obvious if its not right in some modes (instant following error)
[21:13:55] <cradek> should we make pid.error-previous-target the default in master?
[21:14:15] <PCW> I had to use that for the Steppper PID to work
[21:14:22] <cradek> PCW: you're going to hook it to pid.command-deriv?
[21:14:35] <PCW> Yes
[21:14:54] <cradek> cool, that might just work
[21:15:07] <PCW> well this is just to model a replacement of the current driver stepgen code

[21:24:40] <cradek> it would be great if you could fix that

[21:26:14] <PCW> (and especially noticeable on Ethernet where the jitter is worse)
[21:28:23] <PCW> I can paper over the issue by using the DPLL to sample the stepgen position (I may do this anyway)
[21:28:24] <PCW> but the current stepgen driver behavior with any significant jitter is bad

[23:17:40] <ju-emb> is that critical?
[23:18:01] <seb_kuzminsky> yes that's not right :-/

[23:19:29] <seb_kuzminsky> but even so, the debs from the buildbot have a dependency on the -rtai-1 kernel, which is overly restrictive

[23:22:20] <seb_kuzminsky> once i put the new linux-image.deb and rtai-modules.deb in the deb archive at w.l.o i can update the buildbot, and then any debs it builds will run on the new -rtai-2 kernel (but not on the old -rtai-1 kernel)
[23:22:40] <seb_kuzminsky> this is obviously overly restrictive
[23:24:04] <seb_kuzminsky> for rtai builds we've always had explicit dependencies on a specific kernel version, and we've updated our kernels seldom enough that it was never painful
[23:24:07] <ju-emb> here you can go over results of install process if you need it:
[23:24:09] <ju-emb> http://pastebin.com/wNKjLU3b
[23:26:44] <ju-emb> So I wait for the new deb's before going on?
[23:26:46] <ju-emb> or can I try a git repo, help finding what need to be changed
[23:28:05] <ju-emb> tell me what you need me to do, if I should wait, no hard feelings
[23:28:51] <seb_kuzminsky> ok, what happened there was you installed the linuxcnc deb from the buildbot, and it has a dependency on the previous version of the rtai kernel, so it installed that
[23:29:22] <seb_kuzminsky> it also looks like you didnt install the new version of rtai-modules, since linuxcnc.deb successfully installed the old version

[23:30:40] <seb_kuzminsky> then build from git on that machine
[23:30:42] <seb_kuzminsky> that should work
[23:32:36] <ju-emb> looks like I have to deinstall linuxcnc first before ermoving the kernel stuff
[23:33:07] <ju-emb> remove or purge for linuxcnc?
[23:34:33] <ju-emb> remove did it
[23:34:43] -!- tmcw has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[23:35:07] <seb_kuzminsky> either should be fine
[23:35:56] <seb_kuzminsky> oh, also, if this is a fresh machine that's never run linuxcnc before, don't forget to bump up the memlock limit: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?LockedMemory
[23:40:48] <ju-emb> what git repo should I clone for that?
[23:41:27] <seb_kuzminsky> the standard linuxcnc one:
[23:41:53] <seb_kuzminsky> git clone http://git.linuxcnc.org/git/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-dev
[23:43:14] -!- thomaslindstr_m has quit [Quit: Leaving...]
[23:53:10] <ju-emb> configure is looking for the rtai-1
[23:54:04] <ju-emb> at least for the linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1
[23:54:08] <seb_kuzminsky> aha
[23:54:23] <seb_kuzminsky> install linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-2
[23:55:52] <ju-emb> checking /usr/src/linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1/include/linux/version.h usability... no
[23:55:54] <ju-emb> checking /usr/src/linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1/include/linux/version.h presence... no
[23:55:56] <ju-emb> checking for /usr/src/linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1/include/linux/version.h... no
[23:55:58] <ju-emb> configure: error: version.h not found - Is the kernel headers package installed ?
[23:56:21] <seb_kuzminsky> what's "uname -r" say?
[23:56:50] <ju-emb> 3.4.55-rtai-2
[23:56:52] <ju-emb> as expected
[23:57:52] <seb_kuzminsky> hmm
[23:58:03] <seb_kuzminsky> dpkg --remove linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1
[23:58:12] <seb_kuzminsky> maybe it's not expecting to find multiple realtime headers
[23:58:34] <ju-emb> dpkg: warning: there's no installed package matching linux-headers-3.4.55-rtai-1
[23:59:28] <seb_kuzminsky> do you have the new rtai-2 headers installed?
[23:59:37] <ju-emb> yes
[23:59:43] <seb_kuzminsky> hmm
