[Bug 90271] Re: Regression: RealTek 8139 hard-locks system on installation/modprobe (affects Averatec, Philips laptops)
I'm having the same problem on my Averatec 2460 laptop. Adding acpi=noirq doesn't help. I'm now running Gentoo with 8139too in PIO mode, recompiling the kernel with 8319too in MMIO mode gives me an unbootable system. Any changes that this gets fixed? I wasn't able to install any of the last 3 Ubuntu releases! -- Regression: RealTek 8139 hard-locks system on installation/modprobe (affects Averatec, Philips laptops) https://launchpad.net/bugs/90271 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 64048] Re: LiveCD doesn't boot on Averatec 2460 Intel Core Duo, RTL8139 NIC
Unfortunately acpi=noirq doesn't help. I'm trying to resolve this bug for months now, in fact since Ubuntu 6.04, and NOTHING helps. Running Gentoo with a custom kernel and 8139too in PIO mode works flawlessly though - but I want Ubuntu back!

Hi, hmm I can only attach the output of lspci and dmesg running Gentoo with a custom kernel. When I compile 8139too with PIO mode it works, if I compile it with MMIO mode, Gentoo hangs during boot. ** Attachment added: Dmesg output running Gentoo 2.6.19-suspend2-r3 http://librarian.launchpad.net/7046307/dmesg.txt -- LiveCD doesn't boot on Averatec 2460 Intel Core Duo, RTL8139 NIC https://launchpad.net/bugs/64048 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Perhaps I just add that all Feisty releases so far also won't boot - they also hang as soon as 8139too is loaded. -- LiveCD doesn't boot on Averatec 2460 Intel Core Duo, RTL8139 NIC https://launchpad.net/bugs/64048 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 98717] Kernel module 8139too in MMIO mode freezes system on Intel 945GM chipsets
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-9-generic When booting Breezy, Dapper, Edgy or Feisty, the LiveCD would freeze during boot as soon as the 8139too module for the RTL8139 NIC is loaded. Further investigating the problem with a custom Gentoo install, it turns out that 8139too compiled with MMIO mode enabled freezes the system, while 8139too with PIO mode enabled works flawlessly. This problem prevents installing Ubuntu or even running the LiveCD on laptops using the Intel 945GM chipset and a RTL8139 NIC. This problem now occurs with several generations of Ubuntu. Since I can't disable the NIC in the BIOS, and there's no way to tell Ubuntu to not load a certain module via a kernel command line option, there's no way at all to install Ubuntu. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Kernel module 8139too in MMIO mode freezes system on Intel 945GM chipsets https://launchpad.net/bugs/98717 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 64048] LiveCD doesn't boot on Averatec 2460 Intel Core Duo, RTL8139 NIC
Public bug reported: As Dapper, Edgy won't even boot on my Averatec 2460. It has an Intel Core Duo CPU, Intel 945GM chipset, Intel GMA950 graphics and an RTL8139 onboard NIC. The problem is most likely due to the RTL8139 chip. The module 8139too has two modes: PIO and MMIO. In MMIO mode that Ubuntu uses it doesn't work, but when I install Breezy first, then update to Dapper and re-compile the Dapper kernel as-is, except with PIO mode enabled for 8139too, it works. I also have to disable loading of sd_hci in the Dapper kernel to successfully boot. This is pretty severe, because it prevents Dapper, Edgy from being installed or even run from the LiveCD at all on some new but not exotic hardware. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- LiveCD doesn't boot on Averatec 2460 Intel Core Duo, RTL8139 NIC https://launchpad.net/bugs/64048 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 59627] Intel Core Duo 50% load with powernowd running
Public bug reported: I have an Averatec 2460 with Intel Core Duo T2300, Intel 945GM chipset. When powernowd is running on an 2.6.15-26-686 kernel both CPUs have a constant load of around 50%, the fan is always on. The system sometimes lags a little. Top or gnome-system-monitor don't show any processes consuming so much CPU time. When I stop powernowd and powernowd.early then CPU load drops to around 5-8% on both CPUs which still is somewhat high but much better. ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Intel Core Duo 50% load with powernowd running https://launchpad.net/bugs/59627 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 59626] Ubuntu Dapper can't be installed
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kernel-image-2.6.15-26-386-di I have an Averatec 2460, Intel Core Duo, Intel 945GM chipset, Intel GMA 950 graphics, onboard Realtek 8139 NIC. Ubuntu and many other distros fail to install, it hangs at hardware detection. I managed to install Breezy and upgrade to Dapper. The Dapper kernel (2.6.15-26) won't boot. The reason is the 8139too module used for the NIC. If I re-compile the Dapper kernel and the 8139too module with Use PIO instead of MMIO set then it works. This is a serious bug because a single module prevents Dapper from installing at all! ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Ubuntu Dapper can't be installed https://launchpad.net/bugs/59626 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
