https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=278563 Summary: Failing installation of SIEMENS IGATE 11M wireless network card Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dieter.jurzitza@t-online.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Installation of the SIEMENS IGATE 11M (pcmcia-slot) fails on initial openSUSE10.2. The root cause is a duplicated and wrong entry in /etc/modprobe.d/prism2. /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:15:00.0/0.0/modalias: pcmcia:m0156c0002f06fn00pfn00pa74C5E40Dpb8304FF77pc4B74BAA0pd00000000 this entry is matched twice in /etc/modprobe.d/prism2. The corresponding lines are: alias pcmcia:m0156c0002f*fn*pfn*pa*pb*pc*pd* orinoco_cs and alias pcmcia:m*c*f*fn*pfn*pa74C5E40Dpb8304FF77pc4B74BAA0pd* prism2_cs this leads to the loading of orinoco_cs whenever the card is inserted. In contrast, yast2 correctly detects hostap_cs as the right driver for the card: /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-bus-pcmcia-0.0: MODULE='hostap_cs' MODULE_OPTIONS='' STARTMODE='auto' Fix: remove the orinoco_cs-alias line in /etc/modprobe.d/prism2 and replace the prism2_cs string at the end of the second line by hostap_cs. However, this will show side - effects as other cards might not work afterwards. If anyone comes with a better solution I would appreciate to test. Please find a patch attached against /etc/modprobe.d/prism2. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
