I have a Thinkpad R40 and a Cisco Airo 350 mini-pci with Firmware Version: 5b00.08 and using the same kernel the computer will boot but is not able to use the card correctly. I got it working using kernel-2.6.5-1.358. When trying to unload the module on 2.6.7 I get: Aug 10 10:47:42 borg kernel: airo: Unregistering eth1 Aug 10 10:47:42 borg net.agent[4198]: remove event not handled Aug 10 10:47:52 borg kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth1 to become free. Usage count = 7 Regards Mirko My problem persists with kernel-2.6.8-1.521. Starting eth1 at boot results in a hang with the indicator light flashing rapidly. Starting by hand after boot completes works fine. kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3 works fine. This problem appears to be related to Bug #112824 and some others regarding hardware initialization and hotplugging. Following the suggestion there, I upgraded initscripts to initscripts-7.77-1 from the development tree (and mkinitrd to the devel mkinitrd-4.1.9-1 to satisfy the dependency). Now eth1 starts properly on boot. Is the proper action to mark this as a dup of 112824? Also that bug is listed as an RFE, but it seems like it ought to be a bugfix and rolled out as an update. mass update for old bugs: Is this still a problem in the 2.6.9 based kernel update ? Works perfectly in FC3. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040706 Firefox/0.9.1 Description of problem: Loading this kernel on my Thinkpad T41 with Cisco Airo 350 mini-pci, boot hangs when enabling eth1. No error message appears, and it's too early to get messages in the log. Three-finger salute initiates reboot. The indicator light flashes rapidly. Everything was working fine with kernel-2.6.6-1.435.2.3. The card currently has firmware 5.00.03. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 2. Boot kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 on a machine with a properly-configured and working airo minipci card. 3. Actual Results: Hangs when starting eth1. Wireless indicator light flashes rapidly. Expected Results: Starts eth1 successfully. Wireless indicator flashes slowly. Additional info:
