Bug#260403: 7025-F30 not working

Is there any chance that those patches could be added to the Debian kernel? Will the F30 be supported by Debian Sarge out of the box? If not, where can I find Sven's stuff? BTW, the kernel developer of the driver suggested that it may be an IRQ handling issue. wt -- Warren Turkal Consultant, Penguin Techs http://www.penguintechs.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I have gone expert mode and went manually to a commandline and found the sym53c8xx module not to load due to missing symbols. I then did depmod -a. The next time I tried to load the module, the box locked. I couldn't ^C out. I had to do a cold reboot. Ahem. Since I've performed a successful install with the Sarge installer I think (from my point of view) this bug can be closed. In fact, I'd be inclined to suggest that the reason the F30 isn't working is because the 2.6.8 kernel provided by the installer doesn't support the F30. I think Sven Luther has 2.6.11 kernel that you might be able to boot from to see if that works any better (my patches to support more PReP boxes went in to the 2.6.9 kernel). I have a (slightly non-working now, sadly) F30 in my garage which I definitely booted Linux on, so it should be possible. Cheers, Leigh.
