So, 2021 isn't bad enough yet, but don't despair, people are working to fix that:

Ed Santos' commentary and analysis

I ve mentioned in the past my twisted EE network setup from when I moved in to my current house. The 4GEE WiFi Mini (also known as the EE Osprey 2 Mini or the EE40VB, and actually a rebadged Alcatel Y853VB) has been sitting unused since then, so I figured I d see about trying to get a shell on it. TL;DR: Of course it s running Linux, there s a couple of test points internally which bring out the serial console, but after finding those and logging in I discovered it s running ADB on port 5555 quite happily available without authentication both via wifi and the USB port. So if you have physical or local network access, instant root shell. Well done, folks. And then I bricked it before I could do anything more interesting. There s a lack of information about this device out there - most of the links I can find are around removing the SIM lock - so I thought I d document the pieces I found just in case anyone else is trying to figure it out. It s based around a Qualcomm MDM9607 SoC, paired with 64M RAM and 256M NAND flash. Wifi is via an RTL8192ES. Kernel is 3.18.20. Busybox is v1.23.1. It s running dnsmasq but I didn t grab the version. Of course there s no source or offer of source provided. Taking it apart is fairly easy. There s a single screw to remove, just beside the SIM slot. The coloured rim can then be carefully pried away from the back, revealing the battery. There are then 4 screws in the corners which need removed in order to be able to lift out the actual PCB and gain access to the serial console test points. EE40VB PCB serial console test points

My mistake was going poking around trying to figure out where the updates are downloaded from - I know I m running a slightly older release than what s current, and the device can do an automatic download + update. Top tip; don t run Jrdrecovery. It ll error on finding /cache/update.zip and wipe the main partition anyway. That ll leave you in a boot loop where the device boots the recovery partition which tries to install /cache/update.zip which of course still doesn t exist. So. Where next? First, I need to get the device into a state where I can actually do something other than watch it boot into recovery, fail to flash and reboot. Best guess at present is to try and get it to enter the Qualcomm EDL (Emergency Download) mode. That might be possible with a custom USB cable that grounds D+ on boot. Alternatively I need to probe some of the other test points on the PCB and see if grounding any of those helps enter EDL mode. I then need a suitable firehose OEM-signed programmer image. And then I need to actually get hold of a proper EE40VB firmware image, either via one of the OTA update files or possibly via an Alcatel ADSU image (though no idea how to get hold of one, other than by posting to a random GSM device forum and hoping for the kindness of strangers). More updates if/when I make progress

Sporting a beautiful 10.1 1920x1200 display, the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet Chromebook or Duet Chromebook, is one of the latest Chromebooks released, and one of the few slate-style tablets, and it s only about 300 EUR (300 USD). I ve had one for about 2 weeks now, and here are my thoughts.

Build & Accessories The tablet is a fairly Pixel-style affair, in that the back has two components, one softer blue one housing the camera and a metal feeling gray one. Build quality is fairly good. The volume and power buttons are located on the right side of the tablet, and this is one of the main issues: You end up accidentally pressing the power button when you want to turn your volume lower, despite the power button having a different texture. Alongside the tablet, you also find a kickstand with a textile back, and a keyboard, both of which attach via magnets (and pogo pins for the keyboard). The keyboard is crammed, with punctuation keys being halfed in size, and it feels mushed compared to my usual experiences of ThinkPads and Model Ms, but it s on par with other Chromebooks, which is surprising, given it s a tablet attachment.
fully assembled chromebook duet
I mostly use the Duet as a tablet, and only attach the keyboard occasionally. Typing with the keyboard on your lap is suboptimal. My first Duet had a few bunches of dead pixels, so I returned it, as I had a second one I could not cancel ordered as well. Oh dear. That one was fine!

Hardware & Connectivity The Chromebook Duet is powered by a Mediatek Helio P60T SoC, 4GB of RAM, and a choice of 64 or 128 GB of main storage. The tablet provides one USB-C port for charging, audio output (a 3.5mm adapter is provided in the box), USB hub, and video output; though, sadly, the latter is restricted to a maximum of 1080p30, or 1440x900 at 60 Hz. It can be charged using the included 10W charger, or use up to I believe 18W from a higher powered USB-C PD charger. I ve successfully used the Chromebook with a USB-C monitor with attached keyboard, mouse, and DAC without any issues. On the wireless side, the tablet provides 2x2 Wifi AC and Bluetooth 4.2. WiFi reception seemed just fine, though I have not done any speed testing, missing a sensible connection at the moment. I used Bluetooth to connect to my smartphone for instant tethering, and my Sony WH1000XM2 headphones, both of which worked without any issues. The screen is a bright 400 nit display with excellent viewing angles, and the speakers do a decent job, meaning you can use easily use this for watching a movie when you re alone in a room and idling around. It has a resolution of 1920x1200. The device supports styluses following the USI standard. As of right now, the only such stylus I know about is an HP one, and it costs about 70 or so. Cameras are provided on the front and the rear, but produce terrible images.

Software: The tablet experience The Chromebook Duet runs Chrome OS, and comes with access to Android apps using the play store (and sideloading in dev mode) and access to full Linux environments powered by LXD inside VMs. The screen which has 1920x1200 is scaled to a ridiculous 1080x675 by default which is good for being able to tap buttons and stuff, but provides next to no content. Scaling it to 1350x844 makes things more balanced. The Linux integration is buggy. Touches register in different places than where they happened, and the screen is cut off in full screen extremetuxracer, making it hard to recommend for such uses. Android apps generally work fine. There are some issues with the back gesture not registering, but otherwise I have not found issues I can remember. One major drawback as a portable media consumption device is that Android apps only work in Widevine level 3, and hence do not have access to HD content, and the web apps of Netflix and co do not support downloading. Though one of the Duets actually said L1 in check apps at some point (reported in issue 1090330). It s also worth noting that Amazon Prime Video only renders in HD, unless you change your user agent to say you are Chrome on Windows - bad Amazon! The tablet experience also lags in some other ways, as the palm rejection is overly extreme, causing it to reject valid clicks close to the edge of the display (reported in issue 1090326). The on screen keyboard is terrible. It only does one language at a time, forcing me to switch between German and English all the time, and does not behave as you d expect it when editing existing words - it does not know about them and thinks you are starting a new one. It does provide a small keyboard that you can move around, as well as a draw your letters keyboard, which could come in handy for stylus users, I guess. In any case, it s miles away from gboard on Android. Stability is a mixed bag right now. As of Chrome OS 83, sites (well only Disney+ so far ) sometimes get killed with SIGILL or SIGTRAP, and the device rebooted on its own once or twice. Android apps that use the DRM sometimes do not start, and the Netflix Android app sometimes reports it cannot connect to the servers.

Performance Performance is decent to sluggish, with micro stuttering in a lot of places. The Mediatek CPU is comparable to Intel Atoms, and with only 4GB of RAM, and an entire Android container running, it s starting to show how weak it is. I found that Google Docs worked perfectly fine, as did websites such as Mastodon, Twitter, Facebook. Where the device really struggled was Reddit, where closing or opening a post, or getting a reply box could take 5 seconds or more. If you are looking for a Reddit browsing device, this is not for you. Performance in Netflix was fine, and Disney+ was fairly slow but still usable. All in all, it s acceptable, and given the price point and the build quality, probably the compromise you d expect.

Summary tl;dr:

good: Build quality, bright screen, low price, included accessories

bad: DRM issues, performance, limited USB-C video output, charging speed, on-screen keyboard, software bugs

The Chromebook Duet or IdeaPad Duet Chromebook is a decent tablet that is built well above its price point. It s lackluster performance and DRM woes make it hard to give a general recommendation, though. It s not a good laptop. I can see this as the perfect note taking device for students, and as a cheap tablet for couch surfing, or as your on-the-go laptop replacement, if you need it only occasionally. I cannot see anyone using this as their main laptop, although I guess some people only have phones these days, so: what do I know? I can see you getting this device if you want to tinker with Linux on ARM, as Chromebooks are quite nice to tinker with, and a tablet is super nice.

Big news: RcppTOML now works on Windows too! This package had an uneventful 2016 without a single update. Release 0.0.5 had come out in late 2015 and we had no bugs or issues to fix. We use the package daily in production: a key part of our parameterisation is in TOML files In the summer, I took one brief stab at building on Windows now that R sports itself a proper C++11 compiler on Windows too. I got stuck over the not-uncommon problem of incomplete POSIX and/or C++11 support with MinGW and g++-4.9. And sadly ... I appears I wasn't quite awake enough to realize that the missing functionality was right there exposed by Rcpp! Having updated that date / datetime functionality very recently, I was in a better position to realize this when Devin Pastoor asked two days ago. I was able to make a quick suggestion which he tested, which I then refined ... here we are: RcppTOML on Windows too! (For the impatient: CRAN has reported that it has built the Windows binaries, they should hit mirrors such as this CRAN package for RcppTOML shortly.) So what is this TOML thing, you ask? A file format, very suitable for configurations, meant to be edited by humans but read by computers. It emphasizes strong readability for humans while at the same time supporting strong typing as well as immediate and clear error reports. On small typos you get parse errors, rather than silently corrupted garbage. Much preferable to any and all of XML, JSON or YAML -- though sadly these may be too ubiquitous now. But TOML is making good inroads with newer and more flexible projects. The Hugo static blog compiler is one example; the Cargo system of Crates (aka "packages") for the Rust language is another example. The new release updates the included cpptoml template header by Chase Geigle, brings the aforementioned Windows support and updates the Travis configuration. We also added a NEWS file for the first time so here are all changes so far:

Changes in version 0.1.0 (2017-01-05)

Added Windows support by relying on Rcpp::mktime00() (#6 and #8 closing #5 and #3)

Synchronized with cpptoml upstream (#9)

Updated Travis CI support via newer run.sh

Changes in version 0.0.5 (2015-12-19)

Synchronized with cpptoml upstream (#4)

Improved and extended examples

Changes in version 0.0.4 (2015-07-16)

Minor update of upstream cpptoml.h

More explicit call of utils::str()

Properly cope with empty lists (#2)

Changes in version 0.0.3 (2015-04-27)

First CRAN release after four weeks of initial development

Courtesy of CRANberries, there is a diffstat report for this release. More information and examples are on the RcppTOML page. Issues and bugreports should go to the GitHub issue tracker.

I bought some HTPC a few years ago to run XBMC, a neat media center solution. At the time, to avoid any problems, I installed it on top of a minimal Ubuntu Lucid installation with the official packages from the team XBMC. Recently, XBMC Eden has been released and XBMC has landed into Debian unstable. It was a good occasion to make the switch.

TL;DR: Installing XBMC on Debian Wheezy is quite easy: it almost works out of the box. The big difficulty is the configuration of the remote control: either it works as you expect or you will have to scratch your head over the pile of layers needed to work with a remote control. The configuration of my HTPC is as follows:

an Antec Micro Fusion 350 housing featuring a SoundGraph iMON IR receiver and LCD screen¹,
a Zotac ION-ITX-D-E motherboard with an Intel Atom 330 CPU and an nVidia ION chipset,
some Onkyo AV receiver connected through HDMI,
a Logitech Harmony 555 as remote control.

Installation

Installing Debian Wheezy Installing Debian Wheezy² is pretty easy. Nowadays, getting a bootable USB key from a netinst image of Debian Installer for Wheezy is simplified:

$ sudo dd if=debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso \
>         of=/dev/disk/by-id/usb...

The installation was smooth with the exception of GRUB which was unable to install itself on the disk. This is a known bug when dealing with LVM and it comes with a simple workaround. I hope it will be corrected in time for Wheezy release. While this has little to do with the installation of XBMC, I wanted to test systemd which may become the default init in Debian (at least in Debian GNU/Linux). From README.Debian:

systemd can be installed alongside sysvinit and will not change the behaviour of the system out of the box. This is intentional. To test systemd, add init=/bin/systemd to the kernel command line and then rebooting, or install the systemd-sysv package.

The final system boots in about 15 seconds.

Configuring X Because video decoding in nouveau driver is still a work in progress, the use of the proprietary NVIDIA drivers is mandatory to be able to watch high resolution videos. Therefore, /etc/apt/sources.list should be completed with contrib and non-free repository. Then, you can install the appropriate packages: xserver-xorg-video-nvidia, nvidia-vdpau-driver and xserver-xorg. Here is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/nvidia.conf:

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "NVidia ION"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    Option         "HWCursor" "False"
    Option         "NoFlip" "False"
    Option         "FlatPanelProperties" "Scaling = Native"
    Option         "DynamicTwinView" "False"
    Option         "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP-1"
    Option         "CustomEDID" "DFP-1:/etc/X11/edid.bin"
    Option         "NoLogo" "True"
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
    Option "Composite" "false"
EndSection

The CustomEDID option allows the driver to get an appropriate EDID even when the AV receiver is off. You can get yours, free of charge, with get-edid from read-edid package.

Installing XBMC Thanks to the work of Andr s Mej a, XBMC is now available in Debian Wheezy. To install it, just type aptitude install xbmc. I have dropped the following xbmc.service in /etc/systemd/system directory:

[Unit]
Description = XBMC media center
After = syslog.target
[Service]
User = xbmc
Group = xbmc
Type = simple
ExecStart = /usr/bin/xinit /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone -- :0
Restart = on-failure
[Install]
WantedBy = multi-user.target

Enable this service on boot with systemctl enable xbmc.service. You need to allow xbmc user to run X. The simplest way is to run dpkg-reconfigure -plow x11-common and to allow anybody to run X. sudo may be an alternative.

Configuration

Sound While I wanted to use PulseAudio, I want the AV receiver to be able to upmix stereo streams itself. With PulseAudio, it would always receive a 6-channel signal. Therefore, I directly use ALSA. First, unmute the appropriate outputs:

$ amixer scontrols   grep IEC958
Simple mixer control 'IEC958',0
Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Default PCM',0
Simple mixer control 'IEC958',1
$ amixer sset 'IEC958',0 unmute
$ amixer sset 'IEC958 Default PCM',0 unmute
$ amixer sset 'IEC958',1 unmute
$ sudo systemctl stop alsa-utils.service

The order of channels is incorrect. With the following /etc/asound.conf, we declare a new output, hdmi2, with a different mapping:

pcm.hdmi2  
  type asym
  playback.pcm  
    type plug
    slave.pcm "remap-surround51"
   
 
pcm.!remap-surround51  
  type route
  slave.pcm "hdmi"
  ttable  
    0.0= 1
    1.1= 1
    2.4= 1
    3.5= 1
    4.2= 1
    5.3= 1

In XBMC, this output should be used instead of the default one. hdmi should still be used for passthrough. To check if each speaker is mapped correctly, one can use speaker-test -D hdmi2 -c 6.

LCD display The LCD display integrated into the SoundGraph iMON is supported by the imon kernel module and the lcdproc package. I have only modified a few lines of /etc/LCDd.conf to make it work:

[server]
Driver=imonlcd
ServerScreen=off
[imonlcd]
Protocol=1
OnExit=2
Contrast=400

Remote control This is the most difficult part. I have a Logitech Harmony remote which is a great universal remote. Its support in Linux is acceptable: you can configure through Logitech website and use congruity to push the new configuration.

Remote controls and Linux Before Linux 2.6.36, most remote controls would need LIRC to work:

The driver receives the signal from the IR receiver and make it available through `/dev/lirc`.

`lircd`, with the help of a configuration file describing the protocol used by the remote control, will read the signal and turn it into the appropriate LIRC code.

XBMC connects to `lircd` and receives incoming LIRC codes. It will translate them to an XBMC command. This translation is specified in `Lircmap.xml`.

XBMC maps each command to an action (like `Play`, `Fullscreen`, ) using a keymap. This keymap can handle commands received by a remote control, but also by a keyboard, a mouse or a joystick.

Since Linux 2.6.36, remote controls will be mapped as a generic input device (just like a keyboard):

The driver receives the signal from the IR receiver.

The signal will be handled by a decoder. The configuration of this decoder is done in userland by `ir-keytable`. The decoder will turn the signal into the appropriate event (usually, some keypress).

X will listen to those events and turn them into X key events.

XBMC will receive them and use the appropriate keymap to turn them into actions.

And to add more complexity to the mix, in this last case, you can still use LIRC: `lircd` will listen to events generated by the kernel and turn them into LIRC codes. This can be very confusing. Moreover, the SoundGraph iMON IR receiver accepts two IR protocols: the iMON protocol and the RC-6 one. The Linux driver accepts both of them but uses the first one by default. The RC-6 protocol is the protocol used by many MCE remote controls. I hope you are still with me here.

The easy way To get a reasonable configuration out of the box, here is how to configure each layer:

Logitech Harmony remote: Configure it as a Microsoft branded Media Center PC: Windows Media Center SE.
iMON IR receiver: It must use RC-6 protocol. See below for more details.
LIRC: In /etc/lirc/hardware.conf, put DEVICE=/dev/input/by-id/usb-15c2_0038-event-if00 and DRIVER=devinput. In /etc/lirc/lircd.conf, just put include "/usr/share/lirc/remotes/devinput/lircd.conf.devinput".
XBMC: With the previous bits done, it should just work out of the box.

To switch to RC-6 protocol, install the ir-keytable package and use the following commands:

$ sudo modprobe rc-imon-mce
$ sudo ir-keytable -s rc0 -p rc-6 -c -w /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_mce
Read imon_mce table
Old keytable cleared
Wrote 77 keycode(s) to driver
Protocols changed to RC-6

To make the change permanent, add the rc-imon-mce module to /etc/modules and create /etc/udev/rules.d/90-imon.rules with the following content:

# Override the keytable for iMON
ACTION=="add change", SUBSYSTEM=="rc", DRV_NAME="imon", \
   RUN+="/usr/bin/ir-keytable -s $name -p rc-6 -c -w /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_mce"

The hard way Now, you may want to bind custom actions to some (physical or virtual) buttons. Basically, you are left with two solutions:

Start from the basic configuration with LIRC and add more buttons at each levels (there are five of them!).
Remove LIRC and start with the Logitech Harmony acting as a Microsoft MCE keyboard.

The first option can be quite difficult. You need to find an unused code for the Logitech Harmony. You can try to make it learn a new code if you have some RC-6 remote control. Then, you need to ensure that this code will be present in the keytable used by ir-keytable. If not, you need to add it. That s not easy since you need a to enable some debug stuff in the kernel to find the appropriate scancode. After that, the code needs to be translated in lircd.conf. You will then have to translate it again in Lircmap.xml. At least, you need to add it to a keymap in XBMC. The other way is not ideal but seems less cumbersome. The first step is to configure the Logitech Harmony as a Microsoft MCE keyboard: it has a lot of available keys. Because of the lack of multimedia keys, let s match the keyboard configuration of XBMC:

Button	Command	Button	Command
Channel Down	`PageDown`	Stop	`X`
Channel Up	`PageUp`	Skip back	`Comma`
Prev	`Backspace`	Skip forward	`.`
Up	`DirectionUp`	Play	`P`
Down	`DirectionDown`	Rewind	`R`
Left	`DirectionLeft`	Fast forward	`F`
Right	`DirectionRight`	Star	`Delete`
OK	`Enter`	Pound	`W`
Menu	`C`	Red	`F1`
Exit	`Esc`	Green	`F2`
Guide	`Tab`	Yellow	`F3`
Info	`I`	Blue	`F4`

Unfortunately, the keytables provided with ir-keytable are not complete enough. I have built a more complete table³. With this table and the bindings described above, most functions will work out of the box without LIRC. Additional keys can be configured in a dedicated keymap⁴. Here is an excerpt of mine:

<keymap>
 <global>
  <keyboard>
    <end>XBMC.ShutDown()</end>
    <f1>XBMC.ActivateWindow(MusicLibrary)</f1>
    <f2>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Videos,TvShowTitles)</f2>
    <f3>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieTitles)</f3>
    <f4>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Weather)</f4>
  </keyboard>
 </global>
 <FullscreenVideo>
  <keyboard>
   <opensquarebracket>SubtitleDelayMinus</opensquarebracket>
   <closesquarebracket>SubtitleDelayPlus</closesquarebracket>
   <f6>xbmc.runscript(script.xbmc.subtitles)</f6>
  </keyboard>
 </FullscreenVideo>
</keymap>

FTP Instead of using SSH, I prefer to drop new files with anonymous FTP. vsftpd fits this purpose. Here is my configuration file:

listen=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
use_localtime=YES
setproctitle_enable=YES
secure_chroot_dir=/var/run/vsftpd/empty
nopriv_user=ftp
ftpd_banner=XBMC
hide_ids=YES
ftp_username=xbmc
anon_umask=022
anon_root=/home/xbmc/media
anonymous_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
anon_upload_enable=YES
anon_world_readable_only=YES

It is currently not compatible with systemd (see bug #670308). I have removed the symlink in /etc/rc2.d and I have used the following unit file:

[Unit]
Description=Vsftpd ftp daemon
After=syslog.target network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd.conf
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
ExecStartPre=-/bin/mkdir -p /var/run/vsftpd/empty
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Miscellaneous

In /etc/default/grub, reduce TIMEOUT to 0 to shorten the boot time.
Enabling dirty regions can help speed up XBMC.
aptitude install upower pm-utils to be able to shutdown/suspend from XBMC. Since XBMC was configured to be started outside any session, you need to explicitely give the appropriate rights by creating the following /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/xbmc.pkla:
```
[Actions for xbmc user]
Identity=unix-user:xbmc
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.*;org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes
```

The readibility of the LCD screen is very bad. You should look at the VFD version. The IR receiver reception is poor. The provided remote control is a joke.
Debian Wheezy is not yet released. If you are unfamiliar with Debian, it may be cumbersome to maintain it until the freeze happens in a few months.
Some keys are missing from the provided table. For example, there is no exclamation mark. While there is a scan code for such a key in RC-6 protocol, there is no appropriate key code to translate to: on a QWERTY keyboard, the exclamation mark is on the same key as the number 1. It is possible to map it to some other key code, but the mapping would have been difficult to use.
For example, in ~/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/harmony.xml.

By incredible coincidence, Dick Cheney, Dr. Who, and Devin Townsend were in L.A. that very day.

Another point release for Etch has been done; now it's the time for the CD team to roll out new images after the next mirror pulse. The official announcements (prepared by Alexander Reichle-Schmehl, thanks!) will follow shortly afterwards. FTP master of the day was Joerg Jaspert, who did his first point release since Woody, as he told us on IRC. We appreciate your work and you spending your time that shortly before going to Argentina. This point release includes the etchnhalf update introducing a new kernel image (based on 2.6.24) and some driver updates. Additionally the infamous openssl hole will be fixed for good, even for new installs. Again I want to present you a list of people who contributed to this release. It cannot be complete as I got the information out of the Changed-by fields of the uploads.

The serial port is still the way to access network components out of band. It is slow, but reliable, and remarkably well standardized. It does not have technical whiz-bangs that can fail when one needs things to just work. That makes it the natural way to access critical infrastructure and still being sure that this access vector still works when most other things are down. Every communication link has two sides, so there is a market for devices with a network link and a bigger number of serial ports to connect the actual devices to. Commercial vendors have a broad choice of serial console servers. Most of them, especially the small products with five to ten ports, are quite expensive, so I have been investigating how do build a serial console server with el cheapo hardware. USB comes to mind here, of course.

Picture of the fully equipped USB hub

The hardware side is actually quite easy: A seven-port USB hub, and seven USB-to-serial adaptors (using the widely-deployed Prolific PL2303) are easily purchased for well below a hundred Euros, and naively connected. In my test setup, connected to the hp compaq nc8000 that my blog readers should know only too well by now, the hub does not even need to have its power supply connected. The notebook can power the hub and the seven adaptors just fine. When the UMTS card is plugged in, the ttyUSBx device nodes appear in the order of plugging in the devices. When the system is booted, the order is not very predictable, so one needs - again - udev to give predictable device node names. udevinfo is an important tool to obtain the data set of an USB device which is available to match a device and to act appropriately when it is connected. udevinfo sorts the devices into a tree and shows the relationship of the devices, which device is “behind” which other device from the system’s point of view. udevinfo’s output starts at the leaf of the device tree and shows the information for each node up the tree until its root is reached. One pitfall is that one can only match against the leaf and _one_ other node more up the tree. So you cannot do matches like “the pl2303-based device connected to port 3 on hub 2-3 will be designated USBserial3”. If you try this, your rule will silently be ignored. This is a major turn-off in udev’s implementation. I didn’t try it on sid, but etch definetely shows this behavior. So one can only match like “the tty on the USB subsystem connected to port 3 on hub 2-3 will be designated USBserial3”, but that’s probably as good as it’ll get. The cause for my hub having only seven ports clearly shows itself when one looks at the udevinfo outputs of the fully equipped USB hub: The adapters are connected to ports 1, 2, 3, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4. The seven-port hub is actually two four-port hubs in a single case, with the second one connected to the first one’s port 4. This reflects itself, of course, in the udev rules necessary to address the adapters by the hub port they’re plugged in:

SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.1”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial1”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.2”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial2”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.3”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial3”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.4.1”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial4”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.4.2”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial5”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.4.3”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial6”
SUBSYSTEM==“tty”, SUBSYSTEMS==“usb”, DRIVERS==“usb”, \
   KERNELS==“*-*.4.4”, \
   SYMLINK=“USBserial7”

These rules will only work for a similary structured hub that is directly connected to the notebook. If there are more hubs in between the “final” hub and the host, the address matched against in the KERNELS matches are going to have a different structure. In the test setup, the first two parts of the address needed to be wildcarded since these addresses keep changing when the host is booted or the hub plugged out and in. So I guess that these udev rules are probably going to fail miserably when more hubs and/or USB-to-serial adaptors are connected. But if one does not do too many changes, things are just fine, and it is possible to put numbers on the USB hub ports and be sure that the USB-to-serial adaptor connected to port 4 is going to be /dev/USBserial4 in the host system. I tried plugging in and out the adaptors in random order, unplugged and plugged the hub itself, booted the host, and the relationship between the port and the device node was stable. In the test environment, I only tested one adapter at a time, but all these tests were successful as well. I guess that many more of these adaptors will eventually need a powered USB hub, but with seven adaptors on a single hub, the power from the USB host is sufficient to live without extra power on the hub. And, I guess, there is some hard limit for the number of USB adapters being used, and some soft limit when managing the ports and adapters is going to get harder. But, I think that a site in need of more than, say, sixteen serial ports on the console server can afford a “real” console server from one of the major vendors, which can be accessed via ethernet, UMTS, ISDN and whatever you can think of. This concludes the hardware part of my serial console server for the poor. Tomorrow, I’ll blog about the software side needed on the host to allow the serial ports to be accessed from the network while still being reasonably secure. The next article will involve ssh, /etc/passwd shells, /etc/shells, a small perl script, ser2net and telnet. And, shell escape is the cue word for grey hairs sprouting on my head.

We escorted Sarge to its last home. 3.1r8 is done, thanks to all the people who made it possible. A big thanks goes to James Troup, our ftpmaster of the day doing all the grunt work of getting a new point release out of the door.

I would also like to thank dann frazier, Luk Claes, Martin Zobel-Helas and Neil McGovern for helping with the preparation of the point release.

I am a purist when it comes to food. A huge purist. And yesterday I ended up at Miller's Pizza on Upper Baggot Street, Ballsbridge, Dublin, Ireland, and I enjoyed a Thai Prawn Green Curry Pizza, while colleagues of mine were devouring Mexican Salsa on Pizza Dough and similarly "perverse-sounding" foods. Unfortunately, their menu behind the above link is out of date (someone should let them know ), but that should not stop anyone with an appreciation for eclectic food and an adventurous vein from stopping to eat at this place the next time you're in Dublin.

IPMI is a standard protocol which allows out of band access to hardware features like reading sensors and error logs, turning the power on or off or accessing the serial console. This is made possible by the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), an independent CPU which is accessed from the operating system or by sharing an Ethernet port with the OS. Most modern servers offer an IPMI 1.5 or 2.0 interface and usually loading the ipmi_si driver is all that is needed to verify if it is supported, but some may need additional parameters and/or a kernel upgrade. dmidecode is also useful to determine if the system has a BMC. After loading the ipmi_si and ipmi_devintf drivers the BMC will be accessible from Linux, e.g. using the ipmitool command. The ipmitool package will also install the ipmievd daemon, which logs events like overheating a failed fan (beware: it uses local.* syslog facility which on Debian systems is not configured by default). It is also useful to install the ipmi_poweroff driver, which will generate an ACPI power button event when a clean shutdown is requested by the BMC (you need to install acpid too). The details of accessing the BMC over an Ethernet connection varies depending on the server model and manufacturer, e.g. IBM xSeries servers are shipped with the same default IP address, username and password which means that anybody on the same L2 network (no gateway address is configured) can shut down your system: ipmitool -I lan -H 10.1.1.97 -A PASSWORD -U USERID -P PASSW0RD shell The most convenient way to experiment with IPMI is to run ipmitool shell locally and trying the available commands. These are some trivial examples:


# show the parameters for Ethernet access
lan print
# reset the system
chassis power reset
# cleanly shut down the OS and then power off the system
chassis power soft
# at the next boot, boot from the network
chassis bootdev pxe
# turn on the locator LED
chassis identify 255
# print the system event log
sel list
# read a specific sensor
# (with enough servers you could create a 3D thermal map of the room...)
sensor get "Ambient Temp"

Last night I saw Babel by Alejandro Gonz lez I rritu, who as also made Amores Perros and 21 grams, both movies I adore. I did not write about the movie Babel in the way I used to write about movies somehow related, and I guess I am geek enough to have asked myself why. The question was just answered tonight by the (semi-)random (there is no random) choice of High Fidelity as the movie of choice for this night of a rather disappointing day (turned down on an apartment I wanted; lost cellphone). In no way does this imply negative cricitism about Babel, but it also wasn't a movie that blew me away like John Cusack's masterpiece (again, not to discredit Stephen Frears, the director). And the reason why I am so enthusiastic about that flick? Apart from Cusack's brilliant acting? It's because I can relate to Rob Gordon, whom Cusack plays. Not because I am his age or doing the stuff he does or fighting the battles he fights, but because I think exactly the same things about live, or love, or all these other petty concerns, and I admire the way Nick Hornby (the novel author), D.V. DeVincentis (the screenplay writer), and Cusack (the communicator) bring them across. But I am not in a what-does-it-all-mean phase, yet. And I do want to make a mixed tape.

We're trying to mitigate the severity of #404927 by working around the issue in udev. But, to do that, we need someone to provide us with udevinfo output for these controllers. If you have access to one, please help!

Film at 11 My friend Andrew brought this article in the Sydney Morning Herald to my attention today. I was initially mildly incensed by it, then someone at work pointed out the author's Wikipedia entry, which led onto this Bulletin article on her. So it seems she's just a professional right-wing shit-stirrer. This other article she wrote managed to stir up some ire amongst the cycling community. Still, I am glad to see that An Inconvenient Truth is coming to Australia. Well worth the watch. Now I need to go find where Who Killed the Electric Car is screening...

It won't be long before I grow grey hair if udev keeps pulling tricks on me. Yesterday, an upgrade to 0.087-1 hosed one of my systems. The system is sarge-based, but it is connected a to a cable modem needing the cdc_ether driver, which 2.6.8 does not have. Since I don't expect backports of 2.6.15 to sarge (Update: backports.org has a 2.6.15 backport, but it won't solve my problem it seems), but also don't want to migrate my system to testing, I simply decided to pin linux-image-2.6.15-1-686 and all its dependencies to unstable with APT:

Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-686
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: initramfs-tools
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 600
Package: udev
[...]

The install worked, and off I went to reboot... but the machine did not come back up, and booting 2.6.8 with the new udev also failed. Great. At first, I thought I knew the problem, but at closer inspection, it was something else: udev's ide.agent hung itself up and timed out. It turns out it was looking for hd141 instead of hda, and once I found that out, it didn't take long to put two and two together: 141 is ASCII 97 is 'a'. And if you echo hd\141 just like that, the shell will swallow the backslash. Marco, the udev maintainer blamed a broken shell, and I identified busybox-cvs-static to be the problem; Replacing it with busybox from unstable fixed the issue. Now all that remains is to convince Marco that the bug has nothing to do with initramfs-tools when it occurs in a script provided by udev. initramfs-tools depends on busybox-cvs-static busybox since it works with either. If udev doesn't work with busybox-cvs-static, it has to conflict, which is not really an option though, due to a libc6 upgrade loop. Fortunately, the 2.6.16 kernel will make ide.agent obsolete, so the problem shall vanish in smoke. With one problem solved, I woke up this morning to find another. I use udev's network interface renaming feature to ensure that my interfaces always have the names I expect, and that their names give me a hint as to what they're connected to. Sure, using /etc/modules to ensure a defined load order would work fine, but I have too many machines under my control to want to remember that eth2 on this machine is the wireless LAN. So I use the following udev rules:

wall:~# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/local-interfaces.rules
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="00:02:8a:80:21:31", NAME="internet"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="08:00:46:b1:2d:ee", NAME="lan"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="00:50:04:5b:ec:b3", NAME="wlan"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="00:04:23:72:4e:6c", NAME="wifibackup"

Update: Bas Zoetekouw suggested to match against something else than MAC addresses, for testing. Thus, I tried PCI IDs (using the topmost SYSFS device entry in the udevinfo output):

KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS device ="0x24c4", NAME="internet"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS device ="0x103d", NAME="lan"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS device ="0x5157", NAME="wlan"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS device ="0x1043", NAME="wifibackup"

The problem remains the exact same. It also remains the same if I completely remove wlan and wifibackup. When I woke up this morning, I found the following mess:

wall:~# ip addr
2: internet: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
    link/ether 08:00:46:b1:2d:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: eth0_ifrename: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:02:8a:80:21:31 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
4: wifibackup: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:04:23:72:4e:6c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
5: wlan: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:50:04:5b:ec:b3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.14.129/25 brd 192.168.14.255 scope global wlan
    inet6 fe80::250:4ff:fe5b:ecb3/64 scope link
      valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

The wlan and wifibackup interfaces are configured correctly (I use wifibackup to hook into the various open WLANs around, when my provider goes down, or I need more bandwidth). But internet was assigned to the LAN interface, and eth0_ifrename, well... that's just whacked. Looking at the udev code, this seems to be due to a patch Marco pulled from Ubuntu, which is to guard against race conditions in the renaming. For instance, if eth0 needs to become eth1 and vice versa, udev renames the first to eth0_ifrename and waits until the other has finished its identity change. The patch, however, is a hack: it tries endlessly to rename the interface to its final target name, which, in my case, obviously goes on forever.

10:18  * Md just copied it from the Ubuntu package
10:18 < madduck> why???
10:19 < Md> because it worked in my artificial setup

Unfortunately, this isn't the first time that Ubuntu's "giving back to Debian" (which requires Debian to go out and fetch) is two steps back rather than one forward. I would hope that maintainers of criticial packages (such as udev) would exercise more care when pulling from Ubuntu. And that Ubuntu would please stop adding hacks to packages and instead concentrate on fixing issues at the root the Debian way. So my problem still persists, and even given Ubuntu's ifrename patch problems, I can't figure out what is actually going on. It does not help that udev also suddenly stopped logging interface name changes. Yes, just like that.

KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="00:02:8a:80:21:31", NAME="internet"
KERNEL="eth*", SYSFS address ="08:00:46:b1:2d:ee", NAME="lan"

How can these two rules actually trigger the rename conflict? The only way I could imagine is that udev gets confused and falsely renames 08:00:46:b1:2d:ee to internet. Then, when it gets to the other card, a name collision occurs, udev chooses eth0_ifrename as temporary workaround, and then tries forever to rename eth0_ifrename to internet, which will never succeed. So why does udev get confused in the first place? Why would it ever name the interface 08:00:46:b1:2d:ee internet? Beats me. But I better end here because the world surely doesn't need just anoAther udev rant. Update: I forgot to mention that the renaming works just fine when I unload/load modules from the command line. It's only during the boot process that things go wild. Update 2: I should not that it does not work fine some of the time if the modules are loaded in quick succession.

Installation

Configuration

LCD display The LCD display integrated into the SoundGraph iMON is supported by the imon kernel module and the lcdproc package. I have only modified a few lines of /etc/LCDd.conf to make it work: [server] Driver=imonlcd ServerScreen=off [imonlcd] Protocol=1 OnExit=2 Contrast=400

Remote control This is the most difficult part. I have a Logitech Harmony remote which is a great universal remote. Its support in Linux is acceptable: you can configure through Logitech website and use congruity to push the new configuration.
