[Bug 251252] Re: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver
Hi Everyone, This bug was originally about a kernel panic when unloading the iwl3945 driver. Based on numerous comments (comment 62, 72, 73, 75, 76, 78, 79, and 80) this appears to be resolved so I am marking it as such. If you are experiencing any other issues, please open a new report(s). It's helpful to the kernel team if bugs target one specific issue against a specific set of hardware. Some of you may also want to track bug 250211 regarding the led constantly blinking. I'll also close the linux task opened here as comment 92 (currently the last comment) notes this not being an issue for Intrepid. Thanks. ** Changed in: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24 (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed = Fix Released ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I had to uninstall the latest backports-modules because the new iwl3945-driver (wireless) included is just too buggy, breaks radio kill switch, breaks hibernate, causes weird interrupts errors, and so on..

Marcus, I read the same problem in Ubuntu-es forum, with that kernel update in Hardy and a Compaq Presario F700 (with Atheros AR5007EG). The aparently solution is: - Boot in recovery into kernel 2.6.24-21-generic - Uninstall de madwifi driver with: - cd madwifi_directory (madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007 or another version, like madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6) - sudo make uninstall - Then install de linux-backports-modules for your kernel version. With this package you can use the wifi using the ath5k driver: run - sudo modprobe ath5k if it's necesary. -- linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am experiencing the same problem after upgrading to kernel 2.6.24-21 this morning. I posted a question (48094) seeking a solution for this issue. It has never happened in previous upgrades. Below is a copy of my question: When I ran update manager this morning (10-15-08) my system upgraded to the kernel 2.6.24-21. Upon reboot my athi wifi card was no longer working so I reinstalled the madwifi files rebooted again. When the system rebooted it stoped just short of the end on the status bar the Caps Lock key light began to flash. FYI-I am able to boot up using an earlier kernel (2.6.24-19) so this problem appears to be related to the kernel upgrade. This problem is also described in Bug 251252 but I saw no resolution as this is a new one problem due to the recent upgrade. I am running 8.04 on a Compaq Presario 700 notebook. Below are the steps outputs (where indicated): - Ran Update Mananger - Rebooted into the latest kernel (2.6.24-21) - Repaired athi card access using the following steps: - cd madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007 - make - sudo make install - sudo modprobe ath_pci - sudo reboot - This is where the system locked up during the reboot process where the Caps Lock light began to flash. The mouse pad light also goes from inactive to active. The system hangs in this mode indefinitely. - Rebooted into 2.6.24-21-generic (recovery mode) - Ran repair package option (dpkg) - Rebooted and experienced the same problem - Rebooted again into the 2.6.24-21-generic (recovery mode) to see what errors were occurring. Got the following message: kernel panic - not syncing fatal exception in intrupt Is there a way to fix this issue or is a patch required?

suspend to ram now works OK on my dell D630. Resume from suspend still takes a bit of time (I'd say more than 30s), but I can make it resume almost instantly by switching to the graphic terminal manually (CTRL+ALT+F7). However, after a few seconds, the screen turns briefly black (and comes back to the gnome desktop. But this is a minor annoyance. Thank you for fixing this bug.

After the upgrade to linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic 2.6.24-21.27, suspend and resume, network manager did not see any network devices. I could not start any new X processed from within X (although Ctrl+Alt+F1 and DISPLAY=:0 xterm workded), running ifconfig -a or ip -a hung, running sudo -s hung, trying to suspend again didn't work (blank text-mode screen with backlight on and a blinking cursor, also a blinking thinkpad moon led; I could abort the suspend by pressing a key). dmesg didn't show anything suspicious or iwl3945-related, but /var/log/kern.log showed the dmesg buffer was filled with ACPI error messages and the beginning was truncated: Oct 12 03:08:37 platonas kernel: [27278.472517] eth1: deauthenticate(reason=3) was the last message before suspend, and this is the first ones after: Oct 12 13:05:48 platonas kernel: [27278r GPE[ D], disabling event [20070126] Oct 12 13:05:48 platonas kernel: [0.964529] ACPI Error (evgpe-0705): No handler or method for GPE[ D], disabling event [20070126] Oct 12 13:05:48 platonas kernel: [0.964553] ACPI Error (evgpe-0705): No handler or method for GPE[ D], disabling event [20070126] ...

It's working here just fine as well. The flashing LED is a lot slower than it used to be (back in gutsy, I believe) but it is working. I much preferred the faster blink though - it used to also indicate (with a very fast flicker) when it was trying to associate to an AP.

Any way to give users an option to either have it say on steady or blink on traffic? snip Well, blinking on traffic is pretty much standard behaviour for wireless LEDs and network activity indicators in general, no ? Anyway, the rate of blinking is not very high, at least on my hardware. I remember when I used the older ipw3945-driver, the blinking-rate was totally out-of-whack sometimes, so it's an improvement.

I built the new backports-release myself, since the i386-build isn't available from Launchpad, yet. Observations after some quick testing: * Wireless LED works again (and blinks on traffic). * No kernel panic when module iwl3945 is removed. * Wireless works fine in general.

As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel.

[Bug 251252] Re: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver
Mathieu is correct; the best solution would be to remove l-b-m. I, however, need l-b-m to fix bug 259904. The downsides of editing the sleep.d hook are two-fold: * Buggy network drivers may be unable to handle suspending and may cause all kinds of problems (from network no longer working after a resume to system crashes). It depends on the drivers loaded, which depend on your hardware. In my case I have two network drivers loaded: e1000 and iwl3945. Both appear to handle suspend correctly without unloading and reloading the module. Actually, I haven't tried using wired network after a resume, but at least there are no crashes on suspend. * Having a modified sleep.d hook may cause problems in the future when you upgrade your OS. Your modified hook will override whatever the new Ubuntu version ship, which may cause suspend problems. This is not very likely, but possible, and something to keep in mind. It'd be best to remove the copy in /etc/pm/sleep.d before you upgrade to 8.10. Actually, it's best to remove it as soon as you no longer need it -- i.e. when a new linux-backports-modules release fixes the kernel panic on rmmod. (Somewhat ironically, removing of network modules before suspending is also a workaround, and not a proper solution, AFAIU. Drivers are supposed to handle suspend correctly by putting the hardware into the appropriate sleep state etc. Except that buggy ones don't, and so far it's easier to make suspend work by removing the modules rather than debugging and fixing all the buggy drivers.) -- linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same problem here: suspend works with 2.6.24-20.38; with 2.6.24-21.40, it causes a kernel panic. I'm using the generic images on my Inspiron 6400 with Intel wifi and NVidia graphics. A hw profile is attached. My LED is also not working. Interestingly, the Hardware Drivers utility says the wifi card is Not in use even though I'm connected and using it right now. ** Attachment added: HW Profile: Dell Inspiron 6400 http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16889167/hwprof.txt -- linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Confirmed reappearance with 2.6.24-21 on Sony Vaio TZ21MN/N and the Intel 3945 driver. How long is it going to take before the (old) fix provided by the backports-module enters main? It sucks downloading new kernels and always having to blacklist them until the backport-module comes along to save the day... I mean, its not like only five people on this planet are using Intel- drivers... :( -- linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-21-generic causes kernel panic when unloading Intel Wireless driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
