I have test packages for dapper to see if this fix works. It's not really a fix. I forward ported the sk98lin driver from breezy into dapper, and disabled the sky2 driver. If you would like to test this for me, there are -386 and -k7 packages available at: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bcollins/kernels/sk98lin-dapper/ Since this is not an ABI bump, this should work with current linux- restricted-modules and friends. Sorry, I removed the -686 kernel without thinking and don't want to go through a build again. You just need to test the -386 image anyway. Test -k7 if you have an AMD and just feel the need. WARNING: These are not well tested packages. There's a lot of fixes in there totally unrelated to sky2/sk98lin. It should work fine, but use at your own risk. Make sure you have an alternate way to boot to an older kernel.

Just installed sk98lin (Yukon linux driver version 8.32 from www.marvell.com) and everything works fine so far. Installation of driver was very easy, just install the corresponding linux-headers packages and then choose the install option in the sk98lin installation script. -- sky2 driver freezing system after ifdown and ifup https://launchpad.net/bugs/38865 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 38865] Re: sky2 driver freezing system after ifdown and ifup
Hi Ben, one quick request, since you have not released the new kernel, is it possible to move to sky2 driver included in 2.6.17-rc6-git5? I saw Linus just committed another important bug fix. Generally speaking I think that we'll need to track the upstream on sky2 driver as close as possible... I have the impression that sky2 driver is still a bit work in progress... Many thanks for your great work. -- sky2 driver freezing system after ifdown and ifup https://launchpad.net/bugs/38865 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Currently we are waiting for one more important fix to go into this dapper update, and once it's ready, the kernel will be uploaded and made available. -- sky2 driver freezing system after ifdown and ifup https://launchpad.net/bugs/38865 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
