Output of "lspci -vv" for "PR400FX" based system
The system is a current "F7" one with all updates as of 2007-07-07. After installing "testing" updates as of 2007-07-08 including kernel "2.6.21-1.3255.fc7", the "USB" stick gets detected when it has been inserted -before- booting the system which is a certain progress. Upon logging in to "GNOME", the stick is mounted as "/media/disk", and a drive icon appears on the desktop as expected! It is also possible to unmount the device via the context menu. However, after unmounting, removing and reinserting the stick, it is still necessary to un- and reload "uhci-hcd.ko" in order to get a device created for it. Even after this has happened, the device still does not get mounted. After adding "noapic" to the kernel options, the "USB" stick is auto-mounted as expected, and the write rate increases from about 20 KB/s to almost 1300 KB/s. The problem is thus related to the interrupt handling of the "USB 1.x" device You forgot to reassign the owner as well... This not a "Fedora" specific issue, as it also occurs with a current "Ubuntu 7.10" development snapshot, and as here, adding "noapic" to the kernel boot options restores proper working. Hello, I'm reviewing this bug as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug and will try and assist you in resolving it if I can. There hasn't been much activity on this bug for a while. Could you tell me if you are still having problems with the latest kernel? If the problem no longer exists then please close this bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no additional information lodged. Cheers Chris Issue still present for current development tree kernel version 2.6.23-0.184.rc6.git4.fc8. Okay, thanks for testing Joachim. I'm copying this to the USB subsystem maintainer and adding a USB blocker bug. Hopefully this will generate further review and resolve the problem for you faster. Cheers Chris Joachim, Can I get an update from you on this - are you still having this issue? I have changed my desktop system and do not know when I will be able to retest this issue. The non-ACPI PR440FX mainboard from 1996 is probably not of real interest for a wider audience anymore. Closing as WONTFIX? Okay, thanks for the update Joachim. Will close CANTFIX as you don't have the hardware any more... |
