Well, of course we're waiting for the fix to be in the next point- release, but for those of you that can't wait, here's a quick half- scripted way to get the r1000.ko module in your initrd.gz. It's not tested for completeness, so there could be typos in it, but the result will work.
initrdfile="where/is/your/initrd.gz" # download kernel, the one that is used in the latest initrd # there might be better or other ways to do this (I never really figured out how to download something with Apt in the current directory) # anyway, this works. sudo apt-get install -d linux-image-2.6.15-26-386 # goto a temp directory kerneldir=`mktemp -d` initrdtmp=`mktemp -d` cd $kerneldir # unpack kernel ar x /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.15-26-386_2.6.15-26.47_i386.deb # now unpack your favorite initrd cd $initrdtmp zcat $initdrfile|cpio -i tar -zxf $kerneldir/data.tar.gz lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net/r1000.ko find ./ | cpio -H newc -o |gzip >> ../initrd.new.gz # now remove $kerneldir and $initrdtmp if you want - or leave this to tmpreaper :) # the script above is a hack, but it might help some of you (especially when installing from the net, as I do :) -- Realtek ethernet controller detected but no automatic dhcp on edgy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
