Description

Did another test with installing Fedora 10 and activated the Fedora-Update repo. So after installation I find myself in Kernel 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64, but still with an eth0 that doesn't detect the link. :-( Trying now another distro with 64 bit to see what happens there. Important info: Don't try to analyze this at the moment. It looks pretty much like a BIOS bug we experienced around a year ago on another machine where the BIOS fails to initialize the upper 32 bit of the 64bit BAR of this chip. I forwarded this problem to BIOS development now and they will check twice if the last years bugfix is also applied to this BIOS. Sorry for making you worry about the kernel. :-) This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
