Description Juergen Halstenberg 2001-09-19 15:38:23 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
Obviously the module is missing. If I insert my Fritz! pcmcia ISDN card 
the message "can't locate module avma1_cs.o" appears in /var/log/messages. 
I use RedHat 7.1 and kernel 2.4.2-2. 

Also kernel complains about HiSax: Approval certification failed because 
of unauthorized source code changes.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just take the appropriate pcmcia card.
2.
3.

I'm going to attach 2 files to this bug, a source file and a Makefile.
put them in the same directory somewhere, make sure you have the kernel-source
RPM installed ("rpm -qa | grep kernel-source" will tell you),
and type "make"

that will generate the missing file

Comment 4 Juergen Halstenberg 2001-09-21 12:08:01 UTC

Thanks, I created the avma1_cs.o module and it was loaded. But unfortunately 
two error messages in /var/log/messages still exist when I insert the PCMCIA 
card:
1.
kernel: HiSax: Approval certification failed because of unauthorized source 
code change
But the driver seems to be loaded.
2. 
cardmgr[613]:  get dev info on socket 0 failed: Resource temporarily 
unavailable.

Comment 5 Arjan van de Ven 2001-09-21 12:16:43 UTC

1) is harmless; the hisax code has a md5sum of the code (and all it's headers)
of the time it was approved by a telco for use; however if ANY header file
changes (eg for example for adding a new card or fixing a typo in a comment),
this md5sum doesn't match.

2) if the card works, it's no problem; if it doesn't it is.
 (sounds lame, but the kernel will retry other things when this condition hits,
  if those work, no problem).
