I followed this with the system running normally as I want. But whenever I make this 1 change in the Kernel config, it stops the networking from working. The change I'm trying to make is change the 'Timer Frequency' of the kernel from 250Hz to 1000hz. If I do that and save the configuration without ANY other change and then compare the .config.old and .config, I see a whole bunch of other stuff changed with respect to audio/sound and what not. Then when I build the kernel, the networking/bonding all fails to start. Here's the diff between the two files. root@v100:/boot# diff config-2.6.32.1000hz config-2.6.32-5-sparc64 3,4c3,4 < # Linux kernel version: 2.6.32.1000hz < # Thu Feb 2 00:48:35 2012 --- > # Linux kernel version: 2.6.32 > # Mon Jan 16 15:08:02 2012 66d65 < # CONFIG_GROUP_SCHED is not set 75a75,77 > CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED=y > CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED=y > # CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED is not set 180c182 < # CONFIG_HZ_250 is not set --- > CONFIG_HZ_250=y 182,183c184,185 < CONFIG_HZ_1000=y < CONFIG_HZ=1000 --- > # CONFIG_HZ_1000 is not set > CONFIG_HZ=250 320c322 < CONFIG_INET_LRO=y --- > CONFIG_INET_LRO=m 739a742 > CONFIG_MAC80211_HAS_RC=y 797a801,802 > CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DRBD=m > # CONFIG_DRBD_FAULT_INJECTION is not set 939a945 > CONFIG_SCSI_HPSA=m 940a947 > CONFIG_SCSI_3W_SAS=m 1001a1009 > CONFIG_SCSI_PM8001=m 1129a1138 > CONFIG_MACVTAP=m 1175a1185 > CONFIG_TULIP_DM910X=y 1271a1282 > CONFIG_QLCNIC=m 1272a1284 > CONFIG_BNA=m 1319a1332 > CONFIG_USB_IPHETH=m 1890a1904 > # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set 2059a2074 > # CONFIG_SND_CS46XX is not set 2300a2316 > CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_WWAN=m 2502a2519 > # CONFIG_BRCM80211 is not set 2507a2525,2526 > # CONFIG_RTL8192SU is not set > # CONFIG_RTL8192U is not set 2509d2527 < # CONFIG_INPUT_MIMIO is not set 2530c2548,2556 < # CONFIG_DRM_RADEON_KMS is not set --- > # CONFIG_DRM_VMWGFX is not set > CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU=m > # CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_BACKLIGHT is not set > # CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_DEBUG is not set > > # > # I2C encoder or helper chips > # > CONFIG_DRM_I2C_CH7006=m 2542a2569,2589 > # CONFIG_RAMZSWAP is not set > > # > # Speakup console speech > # > CONFIG_SPEAKUP=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTSA=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTPC=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_APOLLO=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_AUDPTR=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_BNS=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECTLK=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECEXT=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DTLK=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_KEYPC=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_LTLK=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SOFT=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SPKOUT=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_TXPRT=m > CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DUMMY=m > # CONFIG_FB_XGI is not set 2700a2748,2761 > CONFIG_AUFS_FS=m > CONFIG_AUFS_BRANCH_MAX_127=y > # CONFIG_AUFS_BRANCH_MAX_511 is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_BRANCH_MAX_1023 is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_BRANCH_MAX_32767 is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_HINOTIFY is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_RDU is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_SP_IATTR is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_SHWH is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_BR_RAMFS is not set > # CONFIG_AUFS_BR_FUSE is not set > CONFIG_AUFS_BDEV_LOOP=y > # CONFIG_AUFS_DEBUG is not set 2821a2883 > CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_DEFAULT_MASK=0x01b6 3066a3129 > CONFIG_LRU_CACHE=m Can anyone see what is making it fail?
