| Subj: Bug#1116074: IPMI stops working after BI |
XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist From: ala.frosty@gmail.com Package: installation-reports Version: debian-live-13.1.0-amd64-standard.iso Severity: important Motherboard: Supermicro X8DTI CPU: Dual Xeon X5675 RAM: 192GB Samsung DDR3 EEC Short Description: OS (grub?) stops responding to IPMI keyboard Interface after BIOS handoff to boot disk. Problem is exclusive to Trixie and not apparent in any other OS that I have tried with this exact hardware. Sensors and video continue to function normally. Long Description: Using the Supermicro IPMIView Windows Application (or the http web interface),the IPMI interface works fully from initial boot until the BIOS hands off control to the OS (grub?). Once the Grub OS Selection menu appears on screen, keyboard inputs to the IPMI controller are not accepted by the computer thereafter. This behaviour is unique to Debian/Trixie. I have used the IPMI interface on this computer (same hardware, different drives) with numerous other OSs and never seen a problem before this. This first arose when I attempted to install Proxmox built on the Debian/Trixie platform and IPMI stopped working. People within the Proxmox community had a very difficult time believing me that this behavior is actually occurring, instead stating that it cannot happen as described (but it is). I decided to try to run a LIVE Debian Trixie install to take the Proxmox overlay out of the equation, and discovered the same issue. When I return to booting the same computer with the prior boot drive, the IPMI interface works normally and keyboard inputs are accepted once again. I.e. The bug is 100% reproducible and appears to be exclusive to the latest version of Debian/Trixie. i have probably worked with over a dozen different OS's on the hardware (bare metal) and never had this issue before. It seems to me that somehow, the OS (grub?) is turning off the IPMI interface. --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
