Fedora Networking :: Kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64, E1000e Driver 1.0.2-k4 Still Had Bugs?
Feb 11, 2011
I just built some machines with the Intel 82574L gigabit ethernet chip, loaded Fedora 14, and discovered a problem with the e1000e driver dying after a few minutes. A little time spent perusing the web told me that the same driver had problems in Fedora 12 and Fedora 13 as well. Congrats to Fedora for the hat trick.As of kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64, e1000e driver 1.0.2-k4 still had bugs.[URL]

I just responded to a (packagekit?) prompt to update packages, which included new kernel 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64. I use nVidia on my notebook and usually the new driver is installed automatically. This time, the computer would not boot to the stage that the nVidia logo appears, indicating the driver is not present. I edited grub.conf to take me back a version and I am now running under the previous kernel 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64. I tried a yum search for kmod-nvidia-2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64 and nothing was found. I have enabled these repos:

After doing a clean base install of CentOS 5.3 on a test server, I started having problems with network disconnects. While SSH into the box, I would be intermittently disconnected from the SSH session. At first I thought it was my workstation, but after running ping tests from multiple machines on the network to the test box, it became apparent that the test box was dropping packets. When I lose my SSH connection, the pings also start timing out, for a few seconds, then start again. I increased the console logging and I can see when the ethernet port goes up and down when I physically disconnect the cable, but it does not go down or lose link when the disconnects occur. I changed the NIC ports being used and had the same result. I tried with a different switch with same result. I reinstalled CentOS 5.2 and the problem went away.
Upon further investigation, I found that CentOS 5.2 is using the e1000 driver for my NICs and CentOS 5.3 is using the e1000e driver. I resinstalled CentOS 5.3, and tried using the e1000 driver instead of the e1000e but it no longer detects my NIC's... apparently they moved the support from e1000 to e1000e. I have spent the last 3 days googleing for info on this problem and have not found a solution. Any recommendations? Should I submit a bug report?

I am keen to get the internal modem working on my notebook, so I can set up faxing and dial-up internet access.
I have failed to get it working by using the Linuxant alsa-driver-linuxant and hsfmodem packages, but that may be because I am doing something wrong.
alsamixer on my system tells me I have CARD: HDA Intel and CHIP: Analog Devices AD1984.
I have these devices in /dev, which appear to be candidates for modem operation:
Code:
[doug@cardraeh Modem]$ ls -l /dev/ttyS*
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 64 Apr 16 11:40 /dev/ttyS0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 4, 65 Apr 16 11:40 /dev/ttyS1

Just a heads up to others. There is a kernel regression in the 2.6.35 kernel with regard to, some but not all Intel Gigabit ethernet adapters using the e1000e driver. After an otherwise successful upgrade from fedora 13 to 14, no ethernet connection could be made while using the upgraded 2.6.35 kernel that comes with fedora 14. The 2.6.34 fedora 13 kernels work fine and were fortunately still available after the upgrade.
I have personally seen the identical malfunction on all 2.6.35 kernels I've tried with both Arch and Aptosid and have seen similar reported problems on the Gentoo forum. In each case, going back to a 2.6.34 or upgrading to a 2.6.36 kernel solved the problem so this is almost certainly a kernel issue. My onboard Intel Gigabit ethernet adapter is:
$ lspci -vv | grep Ethernet
00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection (rev 02)
I believe the intel ICH8 chipset motherboards are the ones primarily effected.

I ran into a problem that seems to be related to: [URL] with an HP Desktop. The desktop has a Intel 82567LM-3 on board gigabit ethernet adapter which on a fresh install of 11.3 would not operate properly. The e1000e driver was properly detected however on loading, the ethernet interface was never initialized. My solution was to get the latest e1000e driver from intel.com: Network Adapter Driver for PCI-E Gigabit Network Connections under Linux*

I'm I seeing this wrong or is the initrd file in kernel-2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.x86_64 a zero byte file and that's why I can't boot with it( get this "kernel panic not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on known -block (0,0)" message)

I find that the FC 15 Xfce spin will save the user's current session except that it doesn't save what is being done with the Lyx editor. Under FC 15 Gnome 3, I found that after I added the minimize-maximize-close buttons to the top of windows, that some of the windows in Lyx (such as the one that appears for View as DVIPS) didn't respond to those buttons. (I don't remember whether Gnome 3 saved the Lyx session and I've gotten rid of Gnome 3 now.)

where you only get offered the kernel-headers for 2.6.35.11-83 by yum but not the kernel or the kernel-devel? I tried yum clean all and both pointing to the baseurl and mirrorlist and it does the same thing for both. Oddly my other laptop with F14 in the wireless cafe showed all three packages were available.

It appears that the update process on or about 2011.04.28 downloaded and installed a non PAE kernel (kernel-2.6.35.12-90.fc14) on my box. Until this update, it has been installing PAE designated kernels. When this update occurred, it downloaded the PAE headers and debug, devel and debug-devel PAE components. Has anyone else noticed this in their update?

I had a FC13 box which I ran a yum update which obviously does updates to the packages installed. My issue is that its tried to upgrade the kernel to FC14 and that has toasted by install. now when the box boots up I get this on the screen.
[ 1.741672] Kernel Panic - not syncin: VFS: unable to mount foot fs on unknown -block(0,0)
[ 1.741715] Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35.12-90.fc.x86_64 #1
[ 1.741754] Call Trace:

there are a few more lines like te last one. I've tried a rescue disk but no good. is my box toasted for good? I've used a live cd and can still the data on the box, is there any way to resue this situation? or is it run live cd backup the data and do fresh install?

I tried this kernel released on Dec 21th. It makes my F14 constantly suddenly freeze in GUI with no keyboard/mouse response anymore before restart. Only thing to do in this situation is press power-off button and after restart I found no hint in logs.My laptop is thinkpad t400 and I think it's a very common installation.Now I revert to older kernel 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.i686 and it's works quite well.

I am unable to boot with kernel 2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64 which was installed while applying software updates. It hangs with the last message issued "Registering binary handler for Windows Applications". Searching led to it being related to a problem with the nvidia drivers. I followed the directions in several posts - delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf, reboot, run nvidia-xconfig, reboot and all is fine, but not in my case. The first reboot works but the screen is wrong. There is a 1 inch wide black border around the presentation window. If I then do the nvidia-xconfig and reboot, i am back to where I was before - boot hangs after issuing "Registering...". If I boot to the last good kernel, everything works fine. This happened to me once before and I was able to fix it by rebuilding the nvidia kernel (I think that was what I had to do), but I can't find out how to do that. I have akmod and kmod installed which are supposed to take care of this problem. I booted to kernel 13-92 recovery mode, deleted the xorg.conf file and ran nvidia-xconfig from there. Still fails. I don't know what to list here, but I will do my best to supply whatever is necessary.

I am trouble trying to get vpnc to work on my laptop.
Using the same computer via Ubuntu, it works fine.
I used to use an older kernel with the cisco vpn client, but had to go through the motions of turning off cpus in order for it to work. I gave that trick a try and it does not work.
I pretty much followed the instructions from: Gentoo Linux Documentation -- Gentoo vpnc HOWTO
The machine completely locks up right after I enter my password...
I don't see anything relevant in the /var/log/messages file.
Is there another log file to look into specific to the vpnc?

Fedora (2.6.34.6-47.fc13.x86_64) I installed that update, during the installation process it said that it had to remove three packages, one of them was kmod nvidia for the old kernel (Fedora (2.6.33.8-149.fc13.x86_64))After the update finished installing the new kernel, I restarted the system and Nvidia did not load. (I assume because Update manager removed the old nvidia? But I also assumed that a new version would be installed automatically?)I received the following Boot messages:
Code:
Entering non-interactive startup
Starting monitoring for VG vg_user1: 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_user1" monitored
[code]....
I'm confused, if Update Manager removed kmod nvidia, then why does yum say it is installed? And why doesn't the new kernel update work with that version? Or should I install a driver version for that particular kernel? I've read while searching that I need to install a kmod-nvidia for that particual kernel version and that I should login to my previous kernel until that happens, is that the problem I'm having?
Why don't rpmfusion and fedoraproject release the kmod-nvidia and kernel updates at the same time to avoid problems such as this? Does anyone know how long does it usually take for rpmfusion to release the new kmod-nvidia driver for the latest kernel?

I have just updated my kernel and immediately struck trouble. The kernel update is marked as security update.
When booting I get a multiple warnings " deprecated config file /etc/modprobe...", then "no root device found" followed by "boot has failed, sleeping forever"!Clearly something is amiss with this update, so figured the best thing might be to remove it and wait on a fix, but attempting to remove the kernel via the package manager would cause a whole lot of other packages to be removed as well.Instead, I edited grub.conf, commenting out all the kernel-2.6.34.7-63 lines, so that the default is now the previous kernel (2.6.34.7-61).

I tried to update my f12 today. In the list it showed an update for kernel-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.x86_64 It all seemed to go OK but when I restated my computer it spit up an error and wouldn't boot"Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.31.6-145.f12.x86_64/modules.dep: No such file or directory"Luckily the old kernel still works.
I do have the disk encryption set, could this be related to that? Updated my laptop today with the xx.6-145.f12.PAE kernel and now it's borked to. Same problems.12/07/2009OK today's kernel update seemedto fix the problems and now all is well, execpt for my inkscape not working problem. But I put ubuntu 9.10 in a VBox and it works. So for now that's my work around.

I have an issue with kernel-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64. I ran the updates on Christmas Eve and it updated from kernel-2.6.31.6-166.fc12.x86_64 to kernel-2.6.31.9-174.fc12.x86_64. When I rebooted, I no longer received the Fedora Bubble boot screen. It comes up with the Fedora boot bar (across the bottom). Also, I receive failures during boot with the following:

In an attempt to ameliorate some other problems (lm_sensors, and loopback), and based on several forum entries, I decided to update the default f15 kernel (2.6.38.35) using kernel-2.6.39-1.fc16.x86_64.rpm from rawhide. It seemed to install without problems and when I rebooted it seemed to hang just before completing the boot process. The on screen boot messages ended with:
Started Display Manager
Started LSB: daemon for libvirt ........
Starting LSB: suspend/resume libvirt guests on shutdown/boot
[ 12 ......
about a dozen similar lines ending with
[25.030991 hci_cmd_timer: hci0 command tx timeout
then it apparently hangs
However, at that point I can log into to a console using Cntl-Alt-f2, so most, if not all, the crucial boot processes seem to have completed. There is an issue with the nVidia driver that I will deal with by modifying /boot/grub/grub.conf to re-enable nouveau, but I am stumped by what is causing the hang up. There is a certain amount of traffic regarding a similar problem with Ubuntu 11.04, but no solution other than it seems to be related to a BIOS bug (NFI)
what sub-system uses the "hci_cmd_timer" and why it might interfere with the boot process? Has anyone else run into a similar problem with f15?
Is there a better way to get an updated kernel in f15? I do want to keep all the Red Hat patches and back ports, so reluctant to build a kernel from scratch from upstream sources at kernel.org (and maybe just a bit apprehensive ;-})

Is it possible for plymouth to work with the ATI Catalyst driver installed in Fedora 15 x86_64?
Is it that plymouth requires KMS and Catalyst doesn't provide it? With the nvidia driver, I could put a vga= line in grub and plymouth would run. Is there something similar for catalyst?

Months ago, I tried to get my notebook's internal modem working, by installing alsa-driver-linuxant-1.0.23.1-1.noarch.rpm and hsfmodem-7.80.02.06x86_64full-1.x86_64.rpm, both from Linuxant. This did not work, but my system was stable and the sound device (Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)) worked fine.In the last few days, I upgraded to the latest kernel 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64. Boot failed due to an inability to build the alsa-driver-linuxant against the kernel source (I have the kernel source in /usr/src/kernels/2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64/). The message in boot.log was:
Code:

I generally check what updates are being installed. This time sadly I didn't and again this kernel had one missing module. VirtualBox-OSE stopped working. It had been working fine with other upgrades. No it's not a problem with dkms or other stuff. This kernel doesn't have vboxdrv module like other kernels...i verified it...
[Code]...
The 2.6.38.8 version doesn't have vboxdrv module!....hence again I have to roll back to older kernel. So before blindly upgrading....read this message!

this is my x-th attempt to compile the kernel on debian lenny. after solving the damn LGUEST issue, now i got an --append-to-version=-foobar issue?! damn... much time wasted, again. after make menuconfig and make-kpkg clean i start compiling with
Code:
fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-cpupmopt kernel_image kernel_headers
error log:
Code:

EDIT: since this is debian specific and i used make -j5 etc. for # of jobs in other distros, is there an option on make-kpkg for that? && any chance for resuming?
