Hello,

I promise I'll be quiet shortly. :-)

Serial consoles now work. Just uncomment the relevant lines in
/etc/inittab:

# Example how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
#
T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100
T1:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100

:-)

Two questions: when setting the hardware clock to the system clock, my
720 seems to hang. Is this a known issue? There seems to be a variable
one can set somewhere in the Debian init scripts to prevent this. I'll
look into it.

Then, some more interesting messages from /var/log/syslog:

I installed binutils and it reconfigured libc6 here for some reason.

Now sshd goes bonkers a little later:

[Albert Strasheim]

Hello Thomas and parisc-linux,

I'll take a look at it later. Don't know if I want to break my poor
system though.

Where do I find the .debs to get gcc going? I want to see if I can
compile a kernel for parisc, on parisc! :-)

Regards,

Albert

Hello,

apt is mostly fine now, but when I added the following line to

it died again:

I have the ftp_proxy environment variable set, if that makes any
difference. I'll try to do it without the proxy shortly; just need to
setup my "gateway" box right so that the 720/50 can transparently access
the outside world.

debconf        1.0.17
debhelper      3.0.48
binutils       2.11.92.0.10-2

Another weird one is when I click on any button in xman (and some other
apps in xbase-clients; displaying on my i386 machine), it simply dies
with:

Error: Unresolved inheritance operation

Not quite sure if this is because I'm missing some package, or because
of something more serious.

Hello Thomas,

I'm still doing some tests, but it seems to have fixed my problem (at
least with the apt I rebuilt from source).

Thanks a bunch!

This probably explains why xman isn't working too well. Strangely
enough, it doesn't cause a similiar crash.

Would localizing the crashing/non-crashing code help towards figuring
out this problem?

Albert

Re: [parisc-linux] 720/50 update

[Alan Modra]

Randolph Chung is currently testing a new glibc that should cure most,
if not all, of your problems.  The problem was that the lazy linking
code in ld.so used r28 without saving it.  r28 is used by functions
to return values;  In the case of a function returning a struture, on
function entry r28 points to an area of memory to hold the structure.
So trashing r28 meant that functions returning structures scribbled them
into the wrong part of memory.  In fact, they overwrote the procedure
linkage table.

Alan's new patch seems to be working. I've updated the debs at
http://gluck.debian.org/~tausq/hppa/

With these new debs I'm not seeing the apt-get crashes anymore.

I've passed the patch to Ben Collins for the next glibc build.

Please let us know if you are still seeing crashes after using the
updated debs. (Apologies -- but the version numbers are the same as the
previous ones)

Re: [parisc-linux] 720/50 update

Hello Randolph, Alan and parisc-linux,

I've grabbed the new debs from the site. Here's how things went:

0. Using old apt with old libs, things seemed to work initially, but by
   yesterday around lunch-time, everything was dying (bigger database
   maybe?).

1. Using apt I built from scratch yesterday, _without_ LD_BIND_NOW=1
   set, I get a segmentation fault (apt-cache and apt-get). /var/log/syslog
   contains the following:

2. Using original apt, with new libs, apt-cache search, apt-get remove,
   and apt-get install all seem to work. apt-get update from http sites
   seems to work. apt-get update with deb-src lines in the sources.list
   produces an Illegal instruction error right after wgetting the
   relevant file. /var/log/syslog contains the following:

3. Using the apt I built from sources, _with_ LD_BIND_NOW=1 set, 
   everything seems to work fine, including fetching deb-src.

4. Using original apt _with_ LD_BIND_NOW=1 set, everything also seems to
   work; most notably the fetching of deb-src works.

bob:/home/fullung# uname -a
Linux bob 2.4.9-pa70 #5 Thu Nov 8 08:08:50 UTC 2001 parisc unknown

I built this kernel using the most recent gcc on this box yesterday.

For the rest I have all the latest packages from gluck -- everything
from about a day ago, and today's libc6, libc6-dev and nscd.

That's about. :-)

Albert

FYI, Tried deb-src update both with http and ftp now. Doesn't make a
difference; still see the same Illegal instruction.

That's about it. :-)

Re: [parisc-linux] 720/50 update

Me again. :-)

At Thomas's suggestion I downloaded all the packages again and installed
from scratch. Things seem to be working perfectly now. :-)

man also works. xman still reports the same error though.
