@Chase Douglas: Something fishy may be going on...those debug messages weren't triggered.
I used: patch < firmware.sh.patch modprobe -r e100 modprobe e100 tail /var/log/syslog which showed: Mar 2 14:37:04 SERVER1 kernel: [407483.499357] e100: Intel(R) PRO/100 Network Driver, 3.5.24-k2-NAPI Mar 2 14:37:04 SERVER1 kernel: [407483.499370] e100: Copyright(c) 1999-2006 Intel Corporation Mar 2 14:37:04 SERVER1 kernel: [407483.499499] e100 0000:00:07.0: PCI->APIC IRQ transform: INT A -> IRQ 23 Mar 2 14:37:04 SERVER1 kernel: [407483.522448] e100 0000:00:07.0: PME# disabled Mar 2 14:37:04 SERVER1 kernel: [407483.524914] e100: eth0: e100_probe: addr 0xfe87f000, irq 23, MAC addr 00:e0:81:29:37:a0 but none of your extra debug tracing. A full reboot shouldn't be needed to trigger the firmware loader, should it? -- e100: eth0: e100_request_firmware: Failed to load firmware "e100/d101m_ucode.bin https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/530348 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
