Did this work with a 2.6.38.X F15 kernel, or any other previous kernel you have tested, or has this always not worked without the vendor driver? Unfortunately I don't know and can't really test, I only recently added the device to my server and by that point the Fedora install was already updated to kernel 2.6.40.X The only older kernels still installed are all at least 2.6.40 so I can't really boot to an older one to test. There has been a renewed interest in this driver upstream. However, most of those changes aren't going to show up until the 3.2 kernel (or later). If you are willing to try a rawhide kernel, the 3.2-rc3 kernel should contain most of the changes that have been submitted so far. There were a number of changes that landed in 2.6.42 and later kernels. This should be fixed with the 2.6.43 kernel update. If you're still seeing this with 2.6.43/3.3, please open a bug against F16. |
