New Kernel upgrade does not work with MSI-Master2 Network Card
Hi there, Just upgraded to the newly released kernel from suse: vmlinuz-2.6.5-7.75-default Seems that the Broadcom onboard gigabit lan. Does not work with the new kernel (Works fine with either bcm5700 or tg3 kernel modules). I get: Whenever trying to bring it up. I have also tried assigning static ip. Does not work. Jun 18 17:00:04 rincewind dhcpcd[3500]: dhcpStart: ioctl SIOCSIFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable Any Suggestions? Kind regards Joel
Fixed... Seems ACPI=OFF is no longer needed (in fact breaks things =-)) with this kernel, and the master2-far. On Fri, 2004-06-18 at 17:30, Joel Wiramu Pauling wrote:

Hi there, After installing tjhe last kernel update (default 2.6.5-7.75.x86_64) with YOU on my AMD64 system (MSI K8T Neo mainboard, sata 160Gb disk with SuSE 9.1 for AMD64), the system hangs during the boot process. Shortly after loading the kernel scsi drivers (sd_mod.ko, libata.ko, sata_via.ko), there is a warning "can't open /etc/mtab: No such file or directory". I am sure it is there (after booting from CD and mounting the disk I can see it) Then on hda2 (my root partition) it finds a ReiserFS filesystem and after the next message, the system hangs: "ReiserFS: hda2: checking transaction log (hda2)" I am able to reboot with ctr-alt-del. If I do that sometimes everything is the same, or there is one extra line like: "ReiserFS: hda2: replayed 5 transactions in 0 seconds" Seems to me that it finds hda2 but refuses to load my LVM system where the rest of my logical partitions are. Is it possible it has something to do with LVM? Do I miss some module? I had a similar experience before with a 2.6.5 test kernel and at that time just reinstalling the original SuSE kernel from DVD was enough to get the system working again. My system contains a clean installation with just added all patches and updates Yast (YOU) proposed. All my partitions (home, opt, tmp, usr, var, local) except root and swap are in a LVM system. Roel
Hello Folks, do you know general compiling Bugs/problems under AMD64 SuSE 9.0 ? (2.4er Kernel) If so, what is the reason and the way to fix. thanks a lot Daniel

Some sources are not 64-bit aware, so won't compile as 64-bit, some will compile with "linux32 ./configure", "linux32 make" etc. to produce 32-bit apps. One problem that remains is compiling apps that contain a 32-bit proprietary module that need a 32-bit kernel running and sources installed, they will complain about kernel compatibilty with a 64-bit kernel running, e.g the slmodem driver and the intel_EP modem driver.

Daniel, One of the recent helps I've seen, especially with newer configure scripts is the use of ./configure --enable-libsuffix=64 to specify /usr/lib64 and other lib64 directories with this naming scheme. Other looking for 64bit libraries is bound to fail. -Nick Bargnesi u_nbargnesi@umassd.edu Daniel Bunzendahl wrote:

Yes, that only works for some sources, e.g, try downloading and building kmymoney, though this seems to be a problem with the included libtool.

Ehm, if you think I'm here to build random packages for others, you misunderstood. I told you what could make libtool look into /usr/lib for libpcreposix.la, which is in exactly three cases: 1) another .la file explicitely has /usr/lib/libpcreposix.la listed, or includes silly things like -L/usr/lib in its dependency_list, 2) libtool itself contains /usr/lib in it's different *search_path_spec, or 3) libtool is called with -L/usr/lib arguments during linking.
<ME> NO!, I don't have any need for kmymoney, it was just a random app on freshmeat.net that I tried to see if it experienced the same problem as was reported by the other guy who was trying to build something else. I suggested it, so you could see first hand what was happening. <SuSE>
2) and 3) are avoided by --enable-libsuffix=64 during configure, at least in recent enough KDE packages. Perhaps your kmymoney was too old, you can check if configure even supports that option.
1) would be a bug in other packages.
With this information I expect that you go on and try to find out what broke, if you are still interested. For instance you can use /bin/sh -x to trace libtool runs, or post at least the relevant libtool commands which then breaks. You can also do printf style debugging of libtool itself to see from which file /usr/lib/libpcreposix.al comes.
<ME> I heard you LOUD and CLEAR, I tried all that and more, including "linux32" which seems to do nothing. There is no libpcreposix of any flavour in /usr/lib, it's in /usr/lib64. From all the posts seen here, there seems to be a particular problem that affects building many applications. My endeavours have been solely to see if I could help resolve the problem. I am a longtime SuSE user and do whatever I can (as do the others on the lists) to encourage people to stay with this excellent distro. There will be glitches and things that don't work right, we try to resolve these issues and enjoy using SuSE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <THERE ENDETH> Nick Bargnesi wrote:

Hello Sid, thanks for this realy good background infos. I think the best way to help many people is to build an official package from SuSE to fix this problems. To include: "libs suse doesn't support, some links and maybe a script with options to call a configure script and a make after a good result, is cleaning the system after work. for a consistent system SuSE should surch by /sbin/suseconfig a posible result of a hard broken script (maybe some libs a in wrong dirs)" I'm out of work. If you ask me 2 years ago a would present you the link for the shellscript or maybe a good package useable for every DAU. My problem at the moment is MPlayer pre4. And every stuff you nead ... you see.. I hope we all will get a good SuSE-Result. SuSE isn't Microsoft ... Good luck for all of us :-) /daniel bunzbunz@hamburg.ccc.de Am Sonntag, 20.

Hi, i just read at a german linux user forum about the same or a very similiar problem. they don't have LVM running and they're using the 32bit SuSE 9.1 and getting the same reiserfs translaction log error when they have 2 harddisks or more in their system. i personally don't have any problems with the new kernel (1 hdd) so i don't know exactly what happens ... here is the link to this discussion (as i said it's german but at least A.Jäger or A.Kleen can read it ;-) http://www.linuxforen.de/forums/showthread.php?t=140825&page=1&pp=15 i hope this helps in any way to find a solution for your problem best regards, Franz ___________________________________________________________ Bestellen Sie Y!

I do have a second (pata ide) harddisk too, mounted read only (WinXP on it) as hdg. Just disconnecting my harddisk and rebooting didn't make a difference. Disabling the pata ide controller in BIOS doesn't help either. I'll see what I can do next. Thanks for the link and pointing to an other possible cause.

They aren't. It's just the adaption layer that is available in source. To create a full nvidia module you still have to download the binary only blob from nvidia and link it. There is a script that can do that automatically. Note however that we cannot give any support for kernels with this module loaded, using this script is entirely at your own risk. -Andi
Hi, I had the You nvidia patch installed from the previously released kernel update. So the new kernel packages when installed detect this and automagically recompile/change the previous kernel modules symbols to match....? I'm still a bit unsure, as to why I didn't need to do anything, and X worked straight up after I installed the kernel update. Kind regards Joel On Sun, 2004-06-20 at 02:20, Andi Kleen wrote:

Word of warning, the patched nvidia drivers will not work with twinview with the latest suse kernel update... I wish NVidia would hurry up and get a new release out. On Sat, 2004-06-19 at 16:44, Joel Wiramu Pauling wrote:
