[Cooker] Bug in cooker tulip driver.
Hello, We are having problems with the tulip driver of cooker kernel rpms. After installing any of the cooker RPMS (starting from kernel-smp-2.4.4, and not fixed in 2.4.8) the network does not work any longer. The kernel shows messages about trying to change the media of the card, but it always tries the same media :-). We could fix the problem by forcing the media by adding a line options tulip options=20 to the file /etc/modules.conf In this way the card worked somewhat, but it was not reliable. We expienced NFS problems using a SGI IRIX machine as NFS client. All this problems were fixed by compiling the tulip driver in kernel 2.4.3 against the current kernel. BTW, is the bug tracking system actively monitored? This problem was reported there, but no response was ever received. Ramon
[Cooker] Bug in cooker kernel rpm: kernel hang completely
Hello, This crash was produced when mounting the Zip drive. (This causes modprobe to load the ide-scsi module) RPM: kernel-smp-2.4.8-4mdk 2 Pentium III processors 800 MHz kernel After that the kernel hang completely. No ping. NumLock keys do not respond. For this reason, I had to write by hand all the kernel messages. Please forgive mistakes.
