* Starting eth1
* Bringing up eth1
* dhcp
* eth1 does not exist [ !! ]
Tenochtitlan neoriddle # |
so i checked loaded modules:
| Code: | Tenochtitlan neoriddle # lsmod

Hi, post the model of your network card.
Have you compiled the driver as module or built in ? |

i suppose that i compile the module, because i copy the .config and the card worked before update kernel, and when i returned to my original kernel it does not work, and i recompile some modules like ipw2200 and ieee. |

I had the same problem here and I found that the firmware produces some problems.
What versions of the firmware have you installed?
# ls -lad /var/db/pkg/*/ipw2200-firmware*
What does dmesg say?
# dmesg | grep ipw2200
I've solved the problem by masking firmware version 3.0 and using 2.4 instead. |

Here is with ipw2200-firmware-3.0....
| Code: | # ls -lad /var/db/pkg/*/ipw2200-firmware*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 944 May 8 13:51 /var/db/pkg/net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware-3.0
# |
| Code: | # dmesg | grep ipw2200
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.1.2mprq
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation
bus pci: add driver ipw2200
pci: Matched Device 0000:02:01.0 with Driver ipw2200
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
ipw2200: ipw2200-bss.fw request_firmware failed: Reason -2
ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: -2
ipw2200: failed to register network device
ipw2200: probe of 0000:02:01.0 failed with error -5

So I made a downgrade to ipw2200-firmware-2.4 and show this:
| Code: | # ls -lad /var/db/pkg/*/ipw2200-firmware*
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 944 May 9 12:11 /var/db/pkg/net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware-2.4
# dmesg | grep ipw2200
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.1.2mprq
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation

ipw2200: ipw2200-bss.fw request_firmware failed: Reason -2
ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: -2

Before modprobing the module do this as root :
| Code: | | echo /sbin/hotplug > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug |
If this solves your problem, you should add this to sysctl.conf for the settings change to be permanent :
| Code: | | kernel.hotplug = /sbin/hotplug |
EDIT : ok the sysctl.conf trick doesn't seem to work if you are loading your module at startup (probably because modules is loaded before bootmisc). You should consider adding your own init script to set this setting before the modules init script. |

it is not solved.
before your suggest this file was like this:
| Code: | | # less /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug |
then the change is made
| Code: | # echo /sbin/hotplug > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug
# /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
* Starting eth1
* Bringing up eth1
* dhcp
* eth1 does not exist [ !! ]
# |
and the file looks like this:
| Code: | | # less /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug |
but it does not work yet |

Try loading the ipw2200 module after having changed this setting
and then starting the interface |

Hello NeoRiddle, is your problem still unsolved?
In this case, this worked for me:
| Code: | | emerge -bq =ipw2200-firmware-2.4 |

| I just had the problem and resolved it by trying two things. One of them worked. First I updated to ipw2200-firmware 3.0, ieee80211 1.1.13-r1, and the ipw2200 1.1.2-r1. Then I did an etc-update, and the thing that came up of interest was that /etc/init.d/net.lo needed to be updated. |

|
|
I just had a similar problem that popped up when I updated udev. I set it running and went to bed. Next morning, I forgot to run etc-update afterwards, and next time I booted I got the same error. Running etc-update helped.
A udev update might be called for anyway. |
