11/07/06 - Installed Ubuntu 6.06 on different hard drive to test whether issue might be distribution specific. Ubuntu's udev 079 did not exhibit the hanging behavior that 095-14 does on my laptop. All devices recognized and working. please add "udevdebug" to the kernel command line... I suspect a kernel module is hanging your system. Created attachment 140744 [details]
less messages | grep udev
New to UDEV so attempting to decipher udev messages is not providing me with
inspiration to solve the problem. It appears extra work has to be done to
identify the wireless card. Looking through 60-pcmcia.rules, it appears that
pcmcia-check-broken-cis is being run when udev tries to make an entry for the
wireless card, but I'm guessing.

New to UDEV so attempting to decipher udev messages is not providing me with
inspiration to solve the problem. It appears extra work has to be done to
identify the wireless card. Looking through 60-pcmcia.rules, it appears that
pcmcia-check-broken-cis is being run when udev tries to make an entry for the
wireless card, but I'm guessing. Also, i see a "fatal: module not found"
message but what module?
I was wondering if there has been any update to this problem. I have the identical problem on Dell C610 using any of: Ornino Gold / Enterasys pcmcia card Netgear MA401 SMC High Power 2532-WB Can't get past udev if any card is inserted at boot time. Inserting after boot works fine. Have all the fc6 updates and have tried 2.6.19 from kernel.org as well. Sorry, make that "OrinoCo Gold". get the new udev from http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2007-January/msg00104.html and update it It seems like the new udev has completely solved my udev problems so far. Thanks very much! Loaded Fedora 6 hard drive today (Jan-18-2007) and updated packages with security updates. udev is latest version and I still have hardware problem. I pull the wireless card out and system will boot. I plug wireless card in at graphical login screen. When I boot leaving wireless card in, the system locks up with blinking LEDs. Here is the error output.

Is i8042.c a kernel module that has errors at lines 860 and 856? this is a kernel bug I'll come up with a patch to silence those two BUG()'s (They're just debugging stuff really, nothing too important). Why it locks up is still a mystery though. Maybe John has some insight wrt this wireless chip. Please try adding the following lines to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist: blacklist hostap blacklist hostap_cs blacklist hostap_pci blacklist hostap_plx Does that help you to be able to boot with the card plugged-in? Closed due to lack of response...please reopen if problem persists with current fedora kernels. |
