 Posted: Wed Feb 01, 2006 12:18 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] rp-pppoe fails to connect after kernel upgrade |
 |
|
Hi,
I recently installed the | Code: | | gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1 |
kernel from the | Code: | | gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r10 |
I used the old .config (ie changed nothing) but now if I boot into the 2.6.15-r1 kernel rp-pppoe fails to connect. it time's out.
but as soon as I boot into 2.6.12-r10 the networking connects no problem.
Any idea what's gone wrong?
Cheers
Karl

No I didn't forget, to do
| Code: | | make modules-install |
I used | Quote: | | genkernel --lvm2 all |

Still no luck, whenever I try to go forward to the new kernel pppoe fails to connect.
Is there a conflict? Has some userspace tool mooved into the kernel or kernel module moved into a userspace tool that I 'm unaware of? Has some kernel modual taken the place of a built-in an I need to explicitly start it?
Any help would be good.
Is there anyone out there running kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1 with pppoe working?
if so can you let me have a copy of your .config for a comparison.
Cheers

This is still not working...
I tried an upgrade to | Code: | | gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r1 |
just to see if it helped, but still just times out when trying to start net.eth0.
This is weird, It connects in 2-3 seconds when I use | Quote: | | gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r10 |
What gives?
Do I need to re-emerge the whole dependancy tree for rp-pppoe?!
This is a pain, as I need to moove past my current kernel in order to use HAL stuff needed by gnome-volume-manager.
anyone got any ideas at all?
Cheers

I have discovered why rp-pppoe was failing to start after my kernel upgrade but I don't understand why it happened.
Basically, I was telling rp-pppoe to use the wrong interface!!!!
on 2.6.12-gentoo-r10 I have
| Code: | myhost # ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:F5:3F:AA:6C
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:52 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
RX bytes:29383 (28.6 Kb) TX bytes:9608 (9.3 Kb) |
but on 2.6.15-gentoo-r5 I get
| Code: | Output of ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-90-F5-00-00-40-24-6C-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00

RX bytes:1119 (1.0 Kb) TX bytes:1119 (1.0 Kb) |
So my ethernet interface has moved from eth0 to eth1 and is now unspecified, my rp-pppoe setup was still pointing at the eth0 address and when launching adsl-start in debug mode
the errorlog showed that | Quote: | | Interface eth0 is not Ethernet |
I don't know why this has happened presumably some new hardware has been coldplugged? could it be a firewire port? Anyone know?
