kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp I upgraded my machine from Fedora core 3 to Fedora Core 4 using yum All the applications are now upgraded to Fedora core 4 specific version I kept the kernel of FC3 as it is When I start my machine in kernel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 the network is not reachable If I set static IP and do network restart the, network seems to be started properly, I am able ot do ping 127.0.0.1 and Self ip .. but no other ip on the network If I set Dynamic IP (generally in my network we use DHCP assigned IP), then not able to get IP addresss dynamically When I start my machine in kernel 2.6.9-1.667 the network works fine for Static as well as Dynamic IP but then creates problems while using some application or yum upgrades/installs (like segmentation faults) I tried with IBM Machine with onboard LAN card (kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp) In lspci it shows Lan card as (Broadcomm Corporation NetXtreme PCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI express (rev 11) I also tried in HP machine with Onboard LAN Card (kernel-2.6.12-1.1447_FC4) in lspci it shows Lan card as Intel 8256EZ2 When I add new (PCI) Lan card to IBM PC I am able to get on to network eaisly Steps to reproduce 1. Get any hardware with onboard Lancard (eg: Intel Motherboard with 82562EZ as Lan card) 2. Install / Upgrade to Fedora 4 with kernel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 / kernel-2.6.11- 1.1369_FC4smp 3. set Static IP for current network Or try to get IP from DHCP 4. See falied to ping any other machie
I tried changing settings to half Duplex using mii-tool still it didnt worked also tried with kernel kernel-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4
can you try the latest update ? 2.6.12-1.1456 came out yesterday. There's also a 2.6.13-1.1524 in updates-testing if you want to give that a try (though it may have some other problems). Are you getting a default route added ? What's the output of route -n ?
I tried installing the kernel(s) 2.6.12-1.1456 2.6.13-1.1524 Still I am having same problem after bootint them I also tried to see the route adresss After the DHCP server Assigned ipaddress (no route was added) for other kernels except for (2.6.9-1.667) After the Static Assigned ipaddress I could see the routing table but not able to ping (see 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 below) # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # uname -m : i686 uname -r : 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 uname -a : Linux XXX2514.XXXXXXXXX.XX.XX 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 #1 Fri Aug 26 20:29:51 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux After the DHCP Assigned IP addresss in 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 Kernel ----------------------------------------------------------------- ifconfig: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:FE:06:86:1B inet addr:10.77.5.50 Bcast:10.77.31.255 Mask:255.255.224.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20f:feff:fe06:861b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) route: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo route -n: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo After the Static Assigned IP addresss in 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 Kernel ----------------------------------------------------------------- ifconfig: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:FE:06:86:1B inet addr:10.77.5.50 Bcast:10.77.31.255 Mask:255.255.224.0 inet6 addr: fe80::20f:feff:fe06:861b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:3588 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:3588 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:4524016 (4.3 MiB) TX bytes:4524016 (4.3 MiB) route: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.77.0.0 * 255.255.224.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 10.77.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 route -n: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.77.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.224.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 10.77.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 ping 10.77.0.1: PING 10.77.0.1 (10.77.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

Have you tried adding "acpi=off" or "acpi=noirq" to the kernel command line? Please do so and post the results...thanks!
Thanks !!! it did worked with acpi=off boot option with 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 Kernel but no sucess with kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp IBM Machine by any of the options Could you give me details Or more combination options I can try to get Onboard Card working with kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp
Does it work w/ 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4smp? Is there some other reason why you need/want 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp? From Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt: acpi= [HW,ACPI] Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Format: { force | off | ht | strict } force -- enable ACPI if default was off off -- disable ACPI if default was on noirq -- do not use ACPI for IRQ routing ht -- run only enough ACPI to enable Hyper Threading strict -- Be less tolerant of platforms that are not strictly ACPI specification compliant. So, you may want to try "acpi=ht" or possibly "acpi=noirq" instead. Unfortunately, ACPI problems are generally outside of my control. The best option is to pursue a BIOS upgrade from your motherboard manufacturer. I'm going to close this as "CANTFIX", but please do post the results of trying "acpi=ht" with the kernel in question. Thanks!
