Same happens with all three PC-cards I've tried: wireless, ethernet, modem. Only every second card inserted is recognised, even if I try them in random order. Bug is still there in kernel 2.6.13-1.1532_FC4. It started with kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4. It was not in kernel-2.6.13-1.1524_FC4 and earlier. 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 has been released as an update for FC4. Please retest with this update, as a large amount of code has been changed in this release, which may have fixed your problem. Thank you. Bug is still there in 2.6.14-1.1637_FC4 This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. Thank you. No change -- same problem using kernel-2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 and udev-071-0.FC4.1 (the latter dependency was not provided automatically by the fedora updates). But no-one else has confirmed this problem so it may be an idiosynchracy of the hardware. It is also far from fatal, so maybe it is time to close the bug. But I'm happy to keep testing if you want to keep it open. Logs give no hint of what the problem is, and I don't have time to delve deeper than that. The machine that shows this problem is an oem laptop from Linuxcertified. The problem does not show up on my new Dell Latitude D410. [This comment added as part of a mass-update to all open FC4 kernel bugs] FC4 has now transitioned to the Fedora legacy project, which will continue to release security related updates for the kernel. As this bug is not security related, it is unlikely to be fixed in an update for FC4, and has been migrated to FC5. Please retest with Fedora Core 5. Thank you. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you. Bug is still there after a complete fresh install of FC5 (after hard drive died). Kernel tested is 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5. Since no-one else has confirmed this issue it seems to be special to my hardware (Linuxcertified LC2400 laptop; this is OEM hardware which seems to be based on the Uniwill N351S1). Fedora Core 5 is no longer maintained. Is this bug still present in Fedora 7 or Fedora 8? Can't test. The relevant machine is no longer available. Since noone else has reported or confirmend the bug it was probably specific to the hardware -- a LinuxCertified OEM laptop that sold very few units before a new model was introduced. So I think it can be closed (it is my bug, but the system refuses to let me close it). |
