Hi all,
I just come back to my hppa boxes (a 712/80 and a b180) and just co the last cvs
kernel (-pa32).
I do usual make oldconfig; make dep ; make vmlinux (on the 712).
I first rebout the model 712 with this kernel.
Everything seems to work fine:
ksoftirqd_CPU0 does not heat any more 99% of cpu,
Xfree(4.1.0-2) comes back with its classical grey colors (not more
blue),
I try also to disconect-reconect kbd and after a first test the kdb was
not re-init (receive code (7f) ?)
but for following test I was not able to reproduce the problem and seems
to works also?
Nice and Great job.
Then I test this kernel on the B180 model.
Too bad: the sti console stop display at "Set default PSW W bit to 0" (an old
well know problem) but the server start-up well.
(The last kernel I used successfully with sti console was the 2.4.9-pa14 with
just a small adaptation of the Thomas Marteau kdb patch at the beginning of
Sept)
(So I could not test disconnect-reconnect kbd)
Is Xfree works now on this workstation?
Thanks in advance for advice,
Joel
PS: here is the list of packages installed on those servers. Should I have
absolutely upgrade some once?

Try the following patch ... Thomas said this is what fixed STI on the
B-class machines for him. If it works, I'll commit it.

works also for me.
Nervertheless on this b180 the (ps/2) kbd problem is reproductible:
disconnect, reconnect the kdb then touch any key then:
"keyboard: unrecognised scancode (7f) - Ignored"
and I do not find a way to reinit the this kdb.
(System still running, just loss the access to the console)
Thanks in advance for addtional help,
Joel

Hi Joel,
First of all, the STI console and fb is dead on my B132. And now, let's
go to the kbd.
If you tried the disconnect/reconnect trial of strength on your PC,
you should see with showkey --scancode a scancode 0xAA that tells the
controller that a kbd has been reconnected.
On my B132, I don't see that all the time :( and when this occurs, it is
when the kbd do an timeout/parity error.
And this is a big trouble b/c it seems that we should look at the state
of the controller all the time and it is not a solution.
It seems to be integrated in the chip on PCs and on HP boxes, it is not
designed for that case, it seems.
I have two things to say but I need an Hardware HP guy to answer those:
-1) Page 69 of LASI_ers.ps, note 2 is mentionned but I can see only the
note 1. Why?
-2) On my B132, in boot_admin, when you press Escape Key too much (more
than 2 times), you can't type anything!
you need to press enter and then you can type. This is reproductible! Is
it a normal behaviour?
