How does one determine the presence of the cyclades card? ALrighty. Had more of a play. Kudzu DOES seem to pick up the cyclades just fine, but that's about it. modprobing manually works. Can you attach your hwconf file? Created attachment 106388 [details]
hwconf from machine in question
Interestingly enough, the same problem (chicken/egg) with the lucent winmodem
in this machine has also surfaced. Only solution is to load the module
manually, just like the cyclades.. is udev getting in the way perhaps?
Without the cyclades driver claiming the PCI id of the modem, there's no way for it to autoload. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3 Description of problem: I have installed the kernel src package and recompiled the kernel with the addition of the cyclades multi-port serial card module. After installing the kernel and rebooting with the new kernel, the cyclades card isn't automatically detected and no device nodes are present in /dev. If I modprobe the module manually ("modprobe cyclades"), the module loads successfully and the device nodes appear (/dev/ttyC0, ttyC1 etc). Kudzu is silent about the device's presence (removing it or adding it doesn't prompt a hardware change dialog on bootup). I have used the lines supplied in modprobe.conf.dist relating to the cyclades device and added them to modprobe.conf as follows: alias char-major-19-* cyclades alias char-major-20-* cyclades Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): module-init-tools-3.1-0.pre5.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install kernel source 2. Recompile kernel with selecting the cyclades module under Device Drivers/Character Devices (I did a menuconfig on mine) 3. make modules ; make modules_install ; make install ; reboot 4. Select new kernel from grub menu (was 2.6.9-prep on my system) 5. boot system. Actual Results: lsmod doesn't show the cyclades card in the system. No device nodes appear in /dev. Expected Results: Module should have loaded automatically (I would have expected kudzu to pick up the device, too). Additional info: Would have liked the module to be included like our redhat machines. This was filed as a bug report in June against FC2 at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=125884 by another user. This is a fresh install of FC3. This problem was also present in FC3-test3 but not present in FC1.
