From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040113 Description of problem: Kudzu detects Adaptec 2940AU and wants to use kernel module "aic7xxx". Stock kernel package only contains "aic7xxx_old" but not "aic7xxx". Card has to be configured manualy, or compile custom kernel and activate new aic7xxx driver. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kudzu-1.1.36-1, kernel-2.4.22-1.2174 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. invoke kudzu 2. look at /etc/sysconfig/hwconf 3. wrong kernel module Additional info:
$ rpm -qlp kernel-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl.i686.rpm | grep aic7xxx /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx.o /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.o /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx_old.o aic7xxx is included on x86. We really need the driver set to be the same across arches.
unfortunately, the driver set is not the same on different architectures: $ rpm -qlp kernel-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl.x86_64.rpm | grep aic7xxx /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx.o /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2179.nptl/kernel/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx_old.o $ diff kernel-2.4.22-i686.config kernel-2.4.22-x86_64.config ... 2220c2188 < CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX=m --- > # CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX is not set ...
