Description of problem: The orinoco WLAN is broken for me (Dell Latitude C400 internal WLAN) with the kernel-2.6.10-1.741_FC3. It works fine with kernel-2.6.10-1.737_FC3 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.10-1.741_FC3 How reproducible: Fails to initialize the Driver during boot. Actual results: Trying to load the driver (during boot) results in Jan 20 12:22:02 worf kernel: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol orinoco_reinit_firmware Jan 20 12:22:02 worf kernel: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol orinoco_interrupt Jan 20 12:22:02 worf kernel: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol __orinoco_up Jan 20 12:22:02 worf kernel: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol __orinoco_down Jan 20 12:22:02 worf kernel: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol alloc_orinocodev and no WLAN avaliable
When I try to load the orinoco_cs module in this version of the kernel, I get a different list of errors: orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol cs_error orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_get_first_tuple orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_unregister_driver orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_get_tuple_data orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_get_next_tuple orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_validate_cis orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_get_configuration_info orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_parse_tuple orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_reset_card orinoco_cs: Unknown symbol pcmcia_register_driver In the case of the pcmcia_* symbols, it appears that those function names changed in the pcmcia_core module to use "pccard" instead of "pcmcia".
is this still a problem with teh kernel in http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/FC3/ ? The driver loads, and works just fine for me, so I'm puzzled. Are you trying to load it manually with insmod ? (if so, use modprobe instead).
2.6.10-1.750_FC3 works again. and I tried modprobe with no sucess (and i think the init-scripts do a modprobe as well?). lG uk
I tried kernel-2.6.10-1.760_FC3 and I'm still having the same problem with the pcmcia_* symbols. Shall we re-open this or shall I create a new bug entry?
I take it back. I had a mischevious entry for "pcmcia" in /etc/modprobe.conf that caused the new pcmcia.ko module to not get loaded. Disregard.
