Hi,
I'm a "new" user to Linux, and I'm working to get USB up on my PII450 with an
"Intel 82371AB/EB PCI to USB Universal Host Controll" as reported by Windows98.
I'm getting Oops panics 0.1second after the usb-uchi.o loads using the
99-pre8 kernel with the USB that
came with it.
I "upgraded" to http://usb.in.tum.de/download/usb/usb-latest.tgz which
was version: 20000314.
I subscribed to linux-usb mailing list and read 7 days of messages.
A number of questions:
1. why does the mailing list discuss "usb-x.x.x-pre9-2" when the "usb-latest"
claims to be version 20000314
2. where can I grab the "up-to-date" source if this is not source tree we
are discussing here, so I can "sync" with the mailing list
3. JE talks about the "alternate" driver for uhci. Is this included in
the same usb-x.x.x-pre9-2 source tree or are there competing trees.
4. Does using the alternate just mean:
modprobe usbcore.o
modprobe usb-uhci.o <-interchange-> modprobe uhci.o
modprobe acm.o
and the big question:
its taking me 5-8 minutes to boot, fsck, login in and do "modprobe etc.."
its taking linux 0.1 second to oops and panic
I have /dev/swap and /dev/root
how can I speed up this "testing loop" ?
how can I ensure the oops message is logged to kernmsg ?
what information do you want in reporting oops ?
(ie i've seen people copy in their entire logs of kernmsg, init.rd,
/dev/proc/pci etc...)
Thanks in advance,
Jon Hogan-Doran
(p.s I requeted a FAQ on the mailing list via the mailing list server.. but
there is none)
