Re: [gentoo-user] MAJOR udev problem, PLEASE help

2007-06-11 Thread Redouane Boumghar
Hello Trenton,

Ok it's been a month since this thread but... 
I found myself too oftenly in front of unsolved archived threads.

Did you recompile your kernel with udev support ?

I had a similar problem with a PCMCIA ethernet card while turning my system to 
udev.
I recompiled my kernel with the same options and adding udev support and it 
worked
smoothly (even had a shorter boot time :-) )

Check Code Listing 2.2 in :
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml

#
# General setup ---
#   [*] Support for hot-pluggable devices
#
# File systems ---
#   Pseudo filesystems ---
# [*] /proc file system support
# [*] Virtual memory file system support (former shm fs)

Yes, everything worked just fine.  It indeed switched my ethernet to a
different interface (eth1).  Not a problem.

Re: [gentoo-user] MAJOR udev problem, PLEASE help

2007-06-11 Thread W.Kenworthy
This is giving me some problems on a laptop - I have a 70-persistent-net
rules file which attempts to pin eth0 to the ethernet interface, and
eth1 to the wireless interface.  This works fine on a cold boot or
hibernate to disk (sus2) - without it the allocation wanders between the
interfaces at will (this also occurs on a number of multi-interface
servers I have - a real pain!)

Recently however, if I attempt to echo mem  /sys/power/state (aka
instant stop/start!!) it resumes with one of the interfaces having a
name of ethx_renam and of course no network.

Is it possible to:
a. fix so it worked as previously - i.e., resumed on the same interface
in working condition

or
b. able to rename the interface so I can script a fix to run after
resume.

and is it a bug (so I will bugzilla it) or is it a feature :(

Sorry for not replying earlier.  Yes, I found it to be a fireware
ethernet.  Why udev would put that first makes no sense.

I found another email on the list where someone had the same problem.

Thanks.

 I don't understand what is happening.  It sets my IP just fine, but

That MAC address looks like it could be a Firewire ethernet interface.
Does ifconfig -a show your correct MAC address on another interface? If
so, it is probably your persistent net rules messing things up, but if
you don't use Firewire for ethernet, it's probably easiest to disable the
eth1394 module.

[gentoo-user] MAJOR udev problem, PLEASE help

I have an ethernet controller that worked until I updated my udev to

I have kernel 2.6.18-r4 from gentoo-sources

I don't understand what is happening.  It sets my IP just fine, but
the MAC address is WEIRD and there's no link.  The link light is on.
I can ping my IP, but my gateway IP returns with destination host
unreachable.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Methinks that looks like some kind of firewire voodoo interface. The Link 
encap should be ethernet, like this:

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:11:2F:28:94:AF
  inet addr:xxx.xxx.xx.xx  Bcast:xxx.xxx.xx.xx  Mask:255.255.255.240

  RX bytes:1252875785 (1194.8 Mb)  TX bytes:1941196921 (1851.2 Mb)

Does ifconfig show any other interfaces?
Are you running ~arch or plain arch? If the latter, I think udev-110 has 
defaulted to blacklisting the offending module precisely because of problems 
with the interfaces getting juggled about.
