Hypex,
Do you use the USB2 controller on your X1000?

Hi All,
I released the new stable long-term kernel
5.10.234 today.
New:
e5500: Support for the Renesas xHCI controller with firmware
Download:
github.com
Alternative download link:
linux-image-5.10.234-X1000_e5500.tar.gz
These kernels use XZ compressed kernel modules (CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS=y and CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_XZ=y). Please test the kernel modules.
This kernel has been patched with the
dpaa-v2.patch because of an
issue with DPAA on Ubuntu
16.04.
It's suitable for old Linux distributions which don't work with the latest kernels for example Ubuntu
10.04.
It's also suitable if you have some issues with the latest kernels.
Please test the kernels.
Thanks,
Christian

Yes, will post in thread.
I've also been going through kernel logs. So what I wonder is where the DTB is copied from? So the kernel boots, does some setup, copies the dtb out, then restarts itself. By the looks of if the dtb is stored just above the binary space where the ELF segments are loaded in and in case of ramdisk just above ramdisk. The corrupted entry is the PCI rootbus which is fairly major.
I note in your boot line you only disable usb where as I disable both interrupts and usb as this was recommended years ago. Could this have an affect on the outcome? Another difference is you use a CF card. I never set one up so used to use USB to load from. Now days I exclusively use an FFS DOS3 volume to load kernels from. Either direct from CFE or indirect from my loader. I wonder if you see the same issue if you copied a zImage to an FFS volume and booted it from CFE?

Hi
I have successfully tested vmlinux-5.10.234 on Ubuntu 16.04. This time Ubuntu did not freeze. I worked on it for a while and it seemed stable. So maybe it was the kernel I used last that caused Ubuntu to freeze.
Have a nice day

Hi
I have testet debian 32 trixie with vmlinux-6.14_rc3 with success.
Unfortunately both debian 32 and debian 64 are down after the last updates. X won't run. Debian 32 says something about a bug in collord
Have a nice day

Good to know, that it works. Thank you for testing!
Additionally thanks for reporting, that the latest Debian 32 and 64 don't work anymore after the last updates.

Hi All,
I released the new stable long-term kernel
5.10.234 today.
Currently running now. Seems stable. Booted from my loader with ramdisk and it had no issues finding root PCI device info:

There were some module errors about XZ. Only about bluetooth I could see. I don't have any bluetooth devices plugged in so rather harmless on my system it looks.
Code: Select all
Feb 22 03:35:38 ubuntu bluetoothd[2351]: Bluetooth daemon 4.98

I also booted the 6.14 RC2 which managed to work. But it struggled as it was waiting over a minute for devices to appear. Then the desktop managed to load. I'm struggling with Fienix with it as it has no desktop. So surviving on menu and shell. But at times I want to open a folder but can't.
