Please don't.  Matching kernel-header packages is the responsibility of
the kernel-image builders.  Personally, I've started doing them for 2.4,
but at this point I have no plans to do any for 2.2.  Please note that I
can only speak for the kernel images that I build.

Boot problem with Penguin Relion

2001-03-19 Thread Kevin L. Gross


Hi,

My Penguin Relion was running RedHat6.2 when I purchased the system.

I upgraded to RedHat7.0 with no problems.

I just purchased a Debian2.2_r2 CD set and booted directly off the
CD. The boot process hangs after the last line shown here:

  megaraid:v1.11 (Aug. 23, 2000)
  megaraid: found 0x101e:0x1960:idx 0:bus 4:slot 0:func 0
  scsi2: Found a MegaRAID controller at 0xfc804008, IRQ: 5

Any help or pointers would be appreciated. I can be reached toll-free
1-866-726-3674 if needed.

D-Link DFE-530TX+ rtl8139.o

2001-03-19 Thread David Carlile

I have obtained the latest source for rtl8139.c. I have never compiled a
module before and I am getting a number of errors. It appears the source is
relying on a number of files being in the right place and they are not.

It sounds like a lot of people are using the driver that is automatically
installed without problems. It makes me wonder if it is some other problem.
I'm concerned that I could spend a week rewriting the source and makefile to
work on Debian then find out it was some other problem...

Has anyone else run into this problem and if so, did they modify the source
to work with a Debian install? If so would you share it? Am I just being a
whiner, because modifying the source is easy and I just need to look at the
right documentaton?

Dlink changed the configuration of the realtek they were using during
later production runs. The particular card you have does not report itself
as a realtek, so the driver does not find it.

The only fix is to modify the kernel driver. The simplest route is to use
the donald becker drivers (http://www.scyld.com/network/) for the 8139
which has an entry, or you can modify the PCI probe of the linux drivers.
I would expect that the 2.4.2 kernels have this patch applied, but 2.4.0
did not..

It would be very nice if the next drop of the potato boot floopies
included an entry in the realtek driver code for this chip.

The update to the 2.4.0 8139too driver looks like this:

static struct pci_device_id rtl8139_pci_tbl[] __devinitdata = {
{0x10ec, 0x8139, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, RTL8139 },
{0x10ec, 0x8138, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, RTL8139_CB },
{0x1113, 0x1211, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, SMC1211TX },
/*  {0x1113, 0x1211, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, MPX5030 },*/
{0x1500, 0x1360, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, DELTA8139 },
{0x4033, 0x1360, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, ADDTRON8139 },
{0x1186, 0x1300, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, RTL8139 }, // dlink
{0,}
};

A fix for the 2.2 kernel should be similar in nature, but the table looks
different IIRC.

Re: D-Link DFE-530TX+ rtl8139.o

2001-03-19 Thread David Whedon

FYI, I just got the driver (and pci-scan.o) to compile for me by reading the
instructions at: 
http://www.scyld.com/network/updates.html

You may need to install the appropriate kernel-headers-* package.  No need to
muck with makefiles.

udma66 - ide

2001-03-19 Thread David Whedon

The new makefile setup for woody is really nice and clean, unfortunately is
becomes less clean if we want to map the kernel-image-2.2.19pre17-ide to the
'udma66' flavour.

Possible Solutions:
1. kernel-image-2.2.19pre17 is renamed to kernel-image-2.2.19pre17
 - Herbet probably has a reason to call the package ide rather than udma66, and
   the makefile structure of boot-floppies isn't a very good reason to tell him
   to change it.

2. udma66 flavor is renamed to ide flavour
 - This is what I have temporarily done, feels reasonably clean, though it might
   confuse users. I haven't updated the documentation yet.

3. hack the nice makefiles and/or shell scripts so as to map udma66 to ide
 - ick.  This is possible to do, not all that hard even, but I fear it will
   cause confusion and undo a lot of good reorganization that has gone on.

Anybody care?

David
