3C905B module/builtin lockup on 2.4.6-pre3-5

2001-06-23 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann
After attempting different configurations for the past 3 hours, I am at a loss.  I have  attempted to successfully load the 3C59x driver with kernel 2.4.6-pre5 and pre3 with  no luck.  As soon as the module loads, I can switch consoles, but can type nothing into  any of them.  I can hit the Num Lock, which will turn on and off the light, same with  Caps Lock.  I can hit the return key in the terminal where the insmod command was  given, and it will scroll the screen, nothing more.  I tried loading the module with  debug=7, per the vortex.txt file, but nothing is logged anywhere.  I am at a loss as to  what is the problem is here.  Any help is appreciated.  Attached is my .config file and  output from dmesg.  I can try to provide any more info that might help.  I will also  attache output from lspci, although, the TV card has been removed, as it was sharing an  IRQ with the NIC, so I wanted to eliminate any possibility that this might be part of the  problem.

2001-06-09 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

Andrew, 
Although I don't run  
Redhat, your response  
tells me that, even though I 
 was feeling that it was a  
kernel problem, it could be  
a userspace issue, which I  
also suspected.  Debian  
updated their nettools  
today, so I will see if that  
helps in any way.  Thanks  
for your help.  If you think 
of anything else that might 
be an issue, please let me 
know.

3C905b partial lockup in 2.4.5-pre5 and up to 2.4.6-pre1

2001-06-09 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

I have tried 2.4.5-pre2 up to 2.4.6-pre1 with the same results.  Everything boots 
great and I can login fine.  When I try to assign an IP via DHCP or ifconfig, the 
system 
sits and stares at me indefinitely.  2.4.5-pre4 didn't compile for me, but pre3 works 
fine 
and pre5 locks.  There is keyboard response, and Alt-SysRq will tell me that it knows 
I 
want it to sync the disks, but won't actually do it.  It will reboot, though.  I can 
switch 
between terminals, but cannot type anything at the login prompt.

The board is a Abit KT7-RAID.  I have waited to see if this issue has been resolved 
and 
will recompile the newer kernels (AC and Linus flavours) to see if it has cleared up, 
but 
wanted to see if maybe there is something else I should look at.  I can provide any 
more 
information that might help, so please let me know.  Thanks in advance.

Re: VIA IDE driver status ?

2001-03-31 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

It should support both, to my knowledge (which is very limited, mind
you).  I also went out to the store and purchased a new cable, which
made the driver recognize the cable correctly, whereas it did not
before.  I wonder if there is not a serious deficiency in the cables
sent out with motherboards, which is contributing to the problems a lot
of people are having in this area.  Hope this helps some.

Re: VIA IDE driver status ?

2001-03-31 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

I am not sure if this applies in your case, but I was getting problems
such as this on my Abit KT7-RAID and had the correct cables, also.  One
day, on a hunch after reading a post from Alan about overclocking, I
took my Athlon 750 down to 850 from 1.05 GHz and all is working great
now.  If your overclocking, I would suggest not doing so (at least not
so much), based on my experience.  I am also using the v4.0 driver.

Re: Kernel panic: Unable to handle kernel paging request

2000-10-01 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

I have noticed this behaviour as well with any newer pre 2.4 kernels on a Compaq 
Proliant 3000 
with a Smart2-DH controller and, just recently, with test9-pre7 on my home system.  It 
always 
happens during high disk activity.  The problem I have is that usually it starts 
scrolling several 
pages of errors (or plain garbage) and I cannot get enough to submit any useful 
information.  
One system is SCSI (the Proliant) and one is IDE, so I cannot even limit it to that.  
The only 
commonality that I can see is that there is always high disk I/O when the panic 
occurs.

I will try to recompile some older kernels and see where it breaks, but here is the 
output in the 
logs when I try to mount the CD.  I enabled debugging, as well.

Found in debug logfile:

Send reply to:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

As of the more recent kernels (2.4.0-test8,7,6 for sure) both my IDE and SCSI CD-ROM 
drives
will not mount a disk.  They fail and tell me that there is no disk in the drive.  I 
booted into an
old 2.0.36 kernel just to make sure it wasn't a strange hardware failure and the CD 
mounted fine.
 I
have attached my .config and dmesg, which shows that the drives are recognised.  If 
there is
any
further information that I can give, I would be happy to.  Thanks in advance for any 
help.

CD-ROM (SCSI and IDE) not mounting disk

2000-09-23 Thread Glenn C. Hofmann

As of the more recent kernels (2.4.0-test8,7,6 for sure) both my IDE and SCSI CD-ROM 
drives 
will not mount a disk.  They fail and tell me that there is no disk in the drive.  I 
booted into an old 
2.0.36 kernel just to make sure it wasn't a strange hardware failure and the CD 
mounted fine.  I 
have attached my .config and dmesg, which shows that the drives are recognised.  If 
there is 
any further information that I can give, I would be happy to.  Thanks in advance for 
any help.
