 |
|
Hello
I have been using my marvell yukon 88E8036 ethernet card with a gentoo kernel 2.6.15-r1 without any problem. This card works with the sky2 module.
Now , I have updated my kernel to gentoo-sources 2.6.16-r1 and now the card it doesn't work.
The module loads correctly and identifies my eth0 interface.
But when I try to initialize with
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start |
this command cause a kernel panic error and the machine freezee.
I have compiled the sky2 as a module or inside the kernel and both generate the same error.
the error looks like this:
PREEMPT SMP
Modules linked in: ipw2200 i915 drm intel_agp agpgart
.......
Call Trace
[.. ] sky2_status_intr
[.. ] sky2_poll
[.. ] do_softirq
[.. ] net_rx_action
[.. ] do_softirq
[.. ] irq_exit
[.. ] do_IRQ
[.. ] common_interrupt
[.. ] acpi_processor_idle
[.. ] cpu_idle
[.. ] start_kernel
[.. ] unknown_bootoption
.....
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
==============================
Also I have tested changing the configuration from dhcp to a fixed ip address without any result.
I have been searched in google and in the forums, but seems that nobody has this kind of error.
Does any body know how can i fix this?
Thanks in advance. |

You're not alone, I do have the same problem. I'm sticking with 2.6.15-r7 atm. Alternatively, maybe try setting the latency options and kernel premption options...like:
Preemption Model: No Forced Preemption (Server)
Preempt The Big Kernel Lock (Unchecked)
Or, you can test out the latest 2.6.16-r2 to see if someone fixed it. |

I had tested with gentoo sources 2.6.16-r2 and got the same error.
I will try with the vanilla sources. |
