Description Robert M. Riches Jr. 2004-01-20 00:46:01 UTC 
Description of problem:
The rocket driver does not see a valid Comtrol Rocketport
card.  This card worked with RHL 8.0 until kernel
2.4.20-27.8.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.20-28.9
rocket driver version 1.14c, 24-Aug-98

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHL 9 on a system with 4-port RocketPort PCI card.
2. modprobe rocket
3.
  
Actual results:
"init_module: No such device"

Expected results:
module should find card and load

Additional info:
This is basically the same report as #112680, filed on
RHL 8.0, kernel 2.4.20-27.8.  The card had worked with
RHL 8.0 until kernel 2.4.20-27.8.  It had also worked
in an Alpha machine using RHL 6.2-7.2.  I will attach
the output of 'lspci -v' showing the card is seen by
the PCI scanner.  I will attach a few other bits of
additional information, too.

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
