sky2: probe of 0000:01:00:0 failed with error -38

Ok, tracing the include path from /usr/include/errno.h through
to /usr/include/asm-generic/errno.h shows that an error of -38
means :

    #define     ENOSYS  38      /* Function not implemented */

lsmod shows sky2 is loaded, but then I run out of skills/knowledge.

Anything more in /var/log/messages?
Will check next reboot - need to record tonight and that means OS X.

I
have tried "noacpi" at the boot prompt to no avail. Any clues as to
what else I could try?

I have fixed things like this by adding more debug output to the
driver source code and recompiling but its a slow and painful
process.
Er - good idea, but given the number of light years behind you I am in this regard, that's even more slow and painful - time I don't have...

The kernel is a realtime patched 2.6.17.  Interestingly, the install
kernel worked fine with sky2, and another realtime patched kernel
from another distribution (musix running 2.6.15) also worked.

Any reason you don't just use the working musix kernel with stdio64?

It's on a live CD and the FAQs and Knoppix discussion about installing to disk don't sound good.

Increasingly sounding like I should be patient and wait for the next release - I really don't need the network while actually doing any editing/recording/composing anyway I suppose...

Thanks Erik,

Denis
