Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Mritun As I stated earlier I had done this already and it does not work. The switch is D-link and has 5 other machines connected one is a PS3 and all work fine. Including this machine that works fine in all but opensolaris. So go figure the opensolaris driver for Nge is not handling the card correctly, this method may have worked to give you a work around for your M2NPV, but hardly a solution. Hence the word used Rubbush for a solution or option, don't take it personally. I am very serious about moving away from Windows and hate the fact that the machine runs great on windows but not on opensolaris. THis is not a reflection on opensolaris merely a reflection of the market today. Solaris is the best operating system in the world as far as I am concerned and second rate fixes and work arounds are not appropriate. Especially if we want a development community to shift away from that aborable operating system of MS windows/Vista. Sorry ranting But this is stopping me from shifting complety onto OpenSolaris and having windows in a domU. Add maybe a boot of windows for high need graphics games, which maybe oneday will come in Solaris(OH how I dream).

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Thanks lars I had already set this up manually so Nwam was not enabled anyway, but here is a copy of what I did which was just run through your steps any way. I do not think the current nge driver is capable of dealing with this network card that somes as part of the 780a chipset. I also lot's of stuff on google where the linux and freebsd community are having the same issues. I have also logged and RFE which has now been accepted as no CR 6716752 . Anyway here is the commands executed. __ # svcs -a |grep physical disabled 19:14:57 svc:/network/physical:nwam online 19:15:03 svc:/network/physical:default # svcadm disable svc:/network/physical:nwam # svcadm enable svc:/network/physical:default # svcs -a |grep physical disabled 19:14:57 svc:/network/physical:nwam online 19:15:03 svc:/network/physical:default # ifconfig /dev/nge0 down ifconfig: setifflags: SIOCGLIFFLAGS: /dev/nge0: no such interface # ifconfig -a lo0: flags=2001000849UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff00 nge0: flags=201000843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS mtu 1500 index 2 inet 10.1.1.101 netmask ff00 broadcast 10.255.255.255 ether 7a:a6:73:c6:1f:0 lo0: flags=2002000849UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL mtu 8252 index 1 inet6 ::1/128 # ifconfig nge0 down # ifconfig nge0 unplumb # ifconfig /dev/nge0 plumb ifconfig: cannot open link /dev/nge0: DLPI link does not exist # ifconfig nge0 plumb # ifconfig -a lo0: flags=2001000849UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,VIRTUAL mtu 8232 index 1 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff00 nge0: flags=201000842BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,CoS mtu 1500 index 3 inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0 ether 7a:a6:73:c6:1f:0 lo0: flags=2002000849UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL mtu 8252 index 1 inet6 ::1/128 # ifconfig nge0 10.1.1.101 netmask 255.0.0.0 broadcast 10.255.255.255 up # # # ping 10.1.1.101 10.1.1.101 is alive # ping 10.1.1.1 no answer from 10.1.1.1 # # netstat -r Routing Table: IPv4 Destination Gateway Flags Ref Use Interface - - -- - default 10.1.1.1 UG1 0 arpanet dbsol-1 U 1 20 nge0 localhostlocalhostUH1377 lo0 Routing Table: IPv6 Destination/MaskGateway Flags Ref UseIf --- --- - --- --- - ::1 ::1 UH 1 21 lo0 This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Hi, just for curiosity, there should (hopefully) be some managed network element (switch) between your box and the remaining part of the network. Policy defined on given port, to which your box has been connected, might easily cause such link flapping. If so, check the switch configuration and logs for more info. It does not have to be necessarily the driver issue.. /j.

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
One more thing to test ... Some motherboards that I have had the pleasure to know,did not manage to Warm boot from Windows to Unix , be it FreeBSD or Solaris , with a working NIC at the end of the process. Probably Windows does not reset the NIC in the shutdown process. I always had to COLD boot Unix by turning off the power ( i.e. unplug it ) . So I if you have not tried it, I recommend you to unplug/replug the computers power cable and then boot it directly to Solaris, and pray that it works //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Lars noway thanks but that sounds like rubbish, and in fact I have hard reset and powered up directly prior. Come on, I do appreciate your enthusiam though. I am about to log a bug as suggested by several other sun engineers I have been in contact with. The nforce 780a has some differences that will need to be added to the O/S.

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Hi Infact it's not rubbish. Please search the archives. This problem is also evident on Linux and *BSD too. I have an Asus M2NPV board here with nvidia chipset. I had several of same problems that you had. A synopsis is as follows: 1. The NIC flaps (another user me had same issue - bad switch. Please search the archives). 2. The NIC has MAC address in reverse. I have put the right address in hostname.nge0. It won't connect without this fix. 3. The PCI ID of the sata chip is not in database. As a result HDD is being driven by ata rather than nv_sata driver. No problems apart from loss of hot plug functionality (which I don't use). 4. The sound chip just sucks. Really. It fights for the IRQ with the NIC driver. Sometimes it just causes the NIC to freeze. No data will go through. The solution is to re-plumb the interface. 5. If I boot in windows, the NIC will NOT come up. It just won't connect. The solution is to either do a proper cold boot OR just go into NIC netboot PROM for a second or two. That resets it nicely. The windows drivers work (??) right but then I don't believe that specs are open source. I also tried Masa-san's nfe driver. It works right, as long as I don't put the switch in the loop. But I don't have that luxury. Lesson: Stay away from cheap HW. It causes more headache. I've wasted enough time on this mobo that the better one would have saved me a lot of money and anguish.

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Hi , Could be NWAM thats misbehaving I suppose. If you get this result: # svcs -a | grep physical online18:36:40 svc:/network/physical:nwam disabled 18:36:43 svc:/network/physical:default # do : # svcadm disable network/physical:nwam # svcadm enable network/physical:default then you should see: # svcs -a | grep physical disabled 18:36:40 svc:/network/physical:nwam online 18:36:43 svc:/network/physical:default # Now the interface is back in the traditional ( manual ) mode and there is no daemon thats trying to start and stop it. Now you should be able to do : # ifconfig /dev/nge0 down # ifconfig /dev/nge0 unplumb To clear the NIC down first. Then useing a valide IP adress/netmask/broadcast triplet that works for you do : # ifconfig /dev/nge0 plumb # ifconfig /dev/nge0 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.254 up If # ifconfig -a Then shows that the NIC is Up and stable you probably have a working NIC. If so you can now configure the files /etc/hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf /etc/resolv.conf ( may need to be created ) /etc/hostname.nge0 ( may need to be created ) /etc/defaultrouter( needs to be created ) /etc/netmasks And delete /etc/dhcp.nge0 if it exists All these files are dokumented in section 4 of the manual # man -s 4 netmasks And that should be it This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Sorry not yet the ID looks like 0760 for the device. I did a reboot -- -rfor a reconfigure but I get a panic and cant catch details happens to fast. But I also added two other items at the sametime so have removed this but still can't get reconfigure to run. But did get successfully get back into the os through normal boot, and now say nge is there but fails. I may do a re-install and try a reconfigure just by itself just to check, as the other items may have caused futher issues. will Keep posted.

I have recently purchased and ASUS M3N-HT MBD with a phenom 9850. The current version b90 does not seem 1) to recognize the network card. When will this be avalible does anyone know? 2) I am also having an issue with the SATA Blu-ray drive which does seem like bug id 6595488 will cover this. appreciate any help as will have to run windows for now which I hate. Was hoping to move everything into opensolaris and run everything else inside virtualbox 1.6.2 This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Nvidia 780a drivers
Hi , Its likely that the NIC on the MCP78 chipset has a new PCI-ID that does not exist in /etc/driver_aliases . find the PCI-ID for the new NIC with either prtconf -V or /usr/X11/bin/scanpci edit it into /etc/driver_aliasesas an PCI-ID for the nge nic and then do a reconfiguration boot. After that /dev/nge0 might appear. //Lars This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
