** Description changed: + SRU Justification: + + Impact: The current tg3 driver in 12.04 does not support this new NIC. + To have installer support in the next point release (12.04.3) we need to + backport some patches which were added after 3.8 into Raring. + + Fix: Backport/cherry-pick of a set of 5 patches. The first one adds + basic infrastructure but was not enough to enable the NIC. Number two + would do that. The remaining three patches are very small bug fixes + which seemed to be related to enabling the new hardware. + + Testcase: Boot Raring kernel on OCP v3 hardware. The current driver will + not support the network card. With those patches applied it was working. + + --- + The AMD OCP v3 "Roadrunner" uses the broadcom (bcm) 5725 netextreme card. 12.04 LTS does not recognize the card (in the PCI ID list or the tg3 kernel module). The PCI ID is 14e4:1643. My next plan is to try newer point relese, iterim release, and daily build. I've not check kernel.org to see if this PCI ID is in the tg3 driver. - --- + --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version k3.8.0-23-generic.
