Several problems with Surface Pro 4
-
@jhuesser Now I see. From what I remember (check out this post) the
cdc_etherkernel module is not working nicely and therefore Tom and I decided to through it out kernel config. AFAIK there should be a patch added to the kernel that adds support for those 045e:07c6 and 045e:07ab Microsoft devices to ther8153driver included in the kernel already. @Tom-Elliott do we still add this patch??As well read through this and see if your DHCP config is fine.
Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you. Will have a deeper look into it at work on monday.
-
@Sebastian-Roth Hi, so should i download the kernel you posted here?

Should be correct. I can’t enable the config through the whole subnet, so i enter it manually for every host.
-
@Sebastian-Roth Yes, I still add the REALTEK_MICROSOFT VENDOR_ID and PCI_ID’s to the kernels.
-
@Tom-Elliott So no need to install the kernel here?

If you’re in RC-8, you should have kernel 4.7.0, so no you wouldn’t need to update.
-
@Tom-Elliott I’m on RC-7 so i will update tomorrow, thank you!
-
So now I have
Running Version 1.3.0-RC-8 SVN Revision: 5949. Created a upload-debug task. The image of the output is below. If i pull out the usb nix and putting it back in, it recognize, that somethig is pulled in, but pressing enter doesn’t work at any time.

The last line (
r8152 .... eth0 ...) looks promising. Kind of strange that nothing is happending after hitting enter. Possibly the keyboard is internally connected via USB as well and just screwed up by re-plugging the USB NIC?!? Does the system freeze completely after that? What if you use an external USB keyboard? -
@Sebastian-Roth Yeah, but after
r8152 .. eth0nothing happens. The keyboard also doesn’t get recognized if i don’t pull out anything. The keyboard is connected via the Surface connector. If i pull it out and plug it in again it says:usb 1-7: new full-speed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd -
The keyboard issue was also happening here , but as of yet no fix for it.

It it clear that the keyboard is freezing or is the system locking up? If we add an external usb keyboard it is seen and is it usable?
-
I’ve just added a whole slew of keyboard drivers to the kernels. Can you try re-installing the 4.7.0 kernel and see if you can start using your keyboard again?
-
@Tom-Elliott Thank you very much! Downloaded the new kernels from the update kernel site, unfurtunally I’ve got the same error as above.
-
@jhuesser Is the keyboard still not working?
-
@Tom-Elliott nope, it isn’t working…
-
@jhuesser So this is a keyboard error now, not a NIC error anymore?!? Do I get this right?
-
@Sebastian-Roth I’m not quite sure. It seems that FOS doesn’t regocnize the NIC and the keyboard. I don’t know how FOS exactly works, but after
r8182 2-1:1.0 eth0 v1.08.5should there be more? Because after replug the nic it stops there. -
I’ve looked into it with @Sebastian-Roth We’ve modifyed the initrd to remove the keyboard interaction (pressing enter to continue). After that the Surface continues with the boot and starts the debut upload task, but because the keyboard doesn’t get recognized, I can’t start the fog script…

@jhuesser Remove the debug flag from the db. It will not be in debug mode and should continue on as expected, unless you started this as “Host->Basic Tasks->Advanced Tasks->Capture - Debug/Deploy - Debug” in which case you’d need to cancel the task and recreate the tasking like you normally would.
Of course you could just do the cancel recreate tasking method anyway (which is likely going to be faster than finding the task in mysql and removing the debug flag.
