an update on this - it seems that the ne module refuses to load... I get this error when trying to load the module manually: [root@server updates]# insmod ne /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: unresolved symbol ei_open /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: unresolved symbol ethdev_init /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: unresolved symbol ei_interrupt /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: unresolved symbol NS8390_init /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: unresolved symbol ei_close also getting these in the log files: Aug 30 16:13:57 server kernel: ne.c: No NE*000 card found at i/o = 0x300 Aug 30 16:13:57 server insmod: /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/ne.o: init_module: Device or resource busy weird thing is that all I did (I think) to break the ne setup was to install an updated linuxconf RPM - from 1.17_2 to 1.20_2 why are these symbols unresolved all of a sudden and how do I fix these? thanks in advance for any assistance! dan. <RANT> I'm getting a bit frustrated with all these rpm and linuxconf falling over type problems. these tools provide a great deal of convenience in maintaining the system but unfortunately since I've been a bit reliant on these and haven't done too much software compiling or loads of manual config file editing (although I do do a fair bit of config stuff outside of linuxconf) I tend to get a bit stuck when problems like this crop up... not really sure if there is an answer to this... just wanted to get it off my chest! :) </RANT> At 3:10 PM +1100 30/8/00, Dan Horth wrote: >hiya - I just upgraded linuxconf on a server we administer and am >now getting plenty of these messages in my syslog: > >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 0 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 1 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 2 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 3 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 4 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: Hw. address read/write mismap 5 >Aug 30 14:44:19 server kernel: eth0: trigger_send() called with the >transmitter busy. -- Nitro - 3D Visualisation, Graphics & Animation Ph (+61 2) 9810 5177 - Fx (+61 2) 9810 0199 http://www.nitro.com.au/ _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
