From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050323 Firefox/1.0.2 Fedora/1.0.2-1.3.1 Description of problem: even with alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394 in the /etc/modprobe.conf file, when running kudzu, the system hangs. If the module directory /lib/modules/2.6.10-1.770_FC3smp/kernel/drivers/ieee1394 is removed or renamed, then kudzu does not hang the system. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kudzu-1.1.95-1 kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.770_FC3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot to runlevel 2 2. /etc/init.d/kudzu start Actual Results: System hangs. Expected Results: New hardware is checked and prompt is returned. Additional info: Hardware is Tyan Thunder 2500 motherboard, Nvidia GForce4 Ti 4200. This motherboard is a Serverworks III HE chipset with LSI SCSI. Possibly related, cups also locks the system. The system boots fine and runs X fine if kudzu and cups are not loaded. The motherboard does not have ieee1394 at all. running kudzu -s does not help. noacpi does not help.

An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you.
The kernel kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 panics with the message insmod: error inserting /lib/raid5.ko: -1 Unknown symbol in module I don't have a /lib/raid5.ko file. The closest appropriate file is /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.35_FC3smp/kernel/drivers/md/raid5.ko Suggestions?
Do this (in order) ls -l /boot/initrd-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3.img mv /etc/modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.conf.old rm -f /etc/sysconfig/hwconf kudzu mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3.img 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 ls -l /boot/initrd-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3.img (the output from the two ls's should be different if my theory is correct).
This bug has been automatically closed as part of a mass update. It had been in NEEDINFO state since July 2005. If this bug still exists in current errata kernels, please reopen this bug. There are a large number of inactive bugs in the database, and this is the only way to purge them. Thank you.
I was unable to upgrade the kernel as the system became very unstable. I was completely unable to install Fedora Core 4. I even tried doing and install using a different hard drive controller, but that didn't work either. Fedora Core 4 will simply not install on my motherboard. I have gone back to fedora core 3, and with a masive up2date, I have no problem with kudzu or cups. I am still disappointed about Core 4, but the issue with this bug is no longer reproducable.
ok, please file a separate bug about any fc4 issues. thanks.
