Upgrade to 7.2 and pcmcia errors in boot.log

[eweborg]

I had redhat 7.0 and my NIC card was working. I upgraded to Redhat 7.2. I don't think the kernel is pick up the hardware.

Ichecked the boot.log and found the following:

Mar 10 11:03:27 madmen pcmcia: /lib/modules/2.4.7-10/pcmcia/i823465.o:
Mar 10 11:03:27 madmen pcmcia: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorredt module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
Mar 10 11:03:27 madmen pcmcia: init_module: No such device

Mar 10 11:03:27 madmen pcmcia: cardmgr.
Mar 10 11:03:27 madmen pcmcia: init_module: Operation not permitted

When I type lsmod, I get :
Moduke * * * * *size * * * * * * * * *used by
ide-cd * * * * * * 26592 * * * * * * *0 (autoclean)
cdrom * * * * * * 29504 * * * * * * *0 (autoclean) [ide-cd]
soundcore * * *4208 * * * * * * * *0 (autoclean)
pcmcia_core 38392 * * * * * * *0

My card is EtherLink III Lan + 33.6 modem pc card - 3c562c/3c563c rpm = kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.27-10

i hope this is not another wireless NIC... it should be 10baseT - right?
okay!
1st -the module should be i82365.o, not i823465.o if this is a mistake let us know, if not then it really needs to be corrected. you may wish to try a
depmod -a to try and get the modules all happy, this module is for pcmcia services.

any chance you have a back up of your /etc/modules.conf and /etc/pcmcia/config for rh7.0 ? this may be helpful incase any parameters need to be passed.

[eweborg]

10baseT - Yes

missed typed the i823465.o in posting - It is i82365.o

When I type depmod -a, I get no info just the prompt.

I might have a it on my old harddrive.

[pbharris]

okay - good! i was hoping it was typo. what is in /etc/modules.conf and /etc/pcmcia/config ?

[eweborg]

Modules.cong :
Alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc

I have try " alias eth0 3c589_cs.o" in the modules.conf and no luck.

There is alot of data in config. here are some entries:

device "3c589_cs"
* * * * class "network" module "3c589_cs"

card "3Com 589 Eternet"
* * * * *manfid 0x0101, 0x0589
* * * * *bind "3c589_cs"

card "3Com 3c562/3c563 Ethernet/Modem"
* * * * manfid 0x0101, 0x0562
* * * * bind "3c589_cs" to 0, "serial_cs" to 1

Note: I add the next entry:
card "3Com 3c562C/3c563C LAN+Modem Adapter"
* * * * manfid 0x0101, 0x0562
* * * * bind "3c589_cs" to 0, "serial_cs" to 1


In config.opts, here are some data
:
include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0xc00-0xcff

exclude irq 4
exclude irq 7
exclude irq 12

[pbharris]

hello,
hum - i know the entry in /etc/modules.conf should be alias eth0 3c589_cs. have you tried reseting it up using netconf ? it is a pretty easy to use graphical tool.

[eweborg]

I replaced a 1.4g hard drive, I inserted it in the laptop.
Information from my Redhat 7.0 harddrive:

difference in config.opts:
include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x800-0x8ff, port 0xc00-0xcff

when I type lsmod:
Moduke * * * * *size * * * * * * * * *used by

serial_cs * * * * 5280 * * * * * * * *0 (unused)

lockd * * * * * * * *31176 * * * * * * *1 (autoclean)
sunrpc * * * * * * *52964 * * * * * * * 1 (autoclean) [lockd]

When I type cardctl status:
socket 0:
* * 5V *16-bit PC Card
* * *function 0: [ready], [up], [bat dead], [bat low], [reg attn]
* * *function 1: [ready], [reg attn]
socket 1:
* * *no card

When I type cardctl config:
socket 0:
* * * Vcc 5.0V * * Vpp 0.0V * * Vpp2 *0.0V
* * * interface type is "memory and I/O"
* * * irq *3 [exclusive] [level]
* * * function 0:
* * * * * * config base 0x1080
* * * * * * * * option 0x47 status 0x00 pin 0x00 copy 0x00 ext 0x00
* * * * * * io *0x0300-0x030f [16bit]
* * * function 1:
* * * * * * config base 0x1000
* * * * * * option 0x47 status 0x08 pin 0x00 copy 0x00 ext 0x00
* * * io 0x02fb-0x02ff [8bit]

I changed the modules.conf to 3c589_cs.
I also change the line in config.opts to
include port 0x100-0x4ff, port 0x800-0x8ff, port 0xc00-0xcff

Both changes did not help.

hum - i am outta ideas...
time for some other eyballs to be looking at this.

has good information
man I hate PCMCIA LOL
pb, I think if it were wireless I'd just drive my car into a barrier on the way home LOL

OK

with that being said lol
Well at the moment, I'm on a win2k box so not going to be of a lot of help (not to mention I'm supposed to leave from work an hour ago ;D

what does /var/log/messages tell you?
What you can do is /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia -restart (I think) and see what kind of errors it spits at you (may want to dodge!)

man I never did figure out the problem with those freakin' modules LOL

if you rmmod 3c589_cs and then insmod 3c589_cs does it give errors? would assume not, but sometimes when you take something apart you break it :

never did figure out ds.o arghhhh
