Glad you got it working, but there's certainly a bug there. 

If you have the time, maybe you could file a bug (preferably directly
upstream) or see if it already has been reported.

[SOLVED] Re: forcedeth driver - bug?

2015-06-18 Thread Bruce Ward

Thanks Selim, that fixed it.

I had tried that months ago on the Wheezy installation I run, but it did 
not work then - probably I did not update the module dependencies or the 
initramfs at that time!


I had not realised the importance of the 'options' keyword, having seen 
few examples of it :-(

No I have not (yet) tried everything! There may be something in a
modprobe.d/foo.conf that could work.
I have tried putting the line
forcedeth msi=0 msix=0


When you make the foo.conf, don't leave "options" out.


into /etc/modules as appeared to work for this Ubuntu user

but that didn't work for me. He did try

Should be like this.


Yes, solution is /etc/modprobe.d/forcedeth.conf containing
options forcedeth msi=0 msix=0

Thank you,
