enovaknb:~ # modprobe smsc-ircc2 nopnp=0 enovaknb:~ # dmesg | tail [...] smsc-ircc2: probe of 00:09 failed with error -22 enovaknb:~ #
The question was good, though. I read the thread: http://lists.openwall.net/linux-kernel/2007/06/03/27 where nopnp comes too.
This problem has a much greater scope than I thought. I think I can't expect you to fix it, the kernel guys are busy with it since 2.6.22...
I see, thanks for digging this out. Does the workaround specified in http://lists.openwall.net/linux-kernel/2007/08/13/1006, i.e. booting with 8250.nr_uarts=1 kernel parameter, work for you too? So that we know whether we are handling the same issue here ... thanks. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
