Can't make my eth0 work
Under 2.4.16, eth0 comes up perfectly every time (using the stock
kernel-image.2.4.16-586), with a custom compiled kernel-image-2.4.17, I
can't get it active.
The only thing that looks suspicious at boot time is:
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22
options: [pci] [cardbus] [pm]
PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 01:03.0
IRQ routing conflict for 01:03.0, have irq 9, want irq 5
IRQ routing conflict for 01:03.1, have irq 9, want irq 5
PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 01:03.1
IRQ routing conflict for 01:03.0, have irq 9, want irq 5
IRQ routing conflict for 01:03.1, have irq 9, want irq 5
Yenta IRQ list 08b8, PCI irq9
Socket status: 30000410
Yenta IRQ list 08b8, PCI irq9
Socket status: 30000006
(under 2.4.16, it finds IRQ9).
However, 'cardinfo' always finds my pcmcia card (an ancient IBM dual
function modem & ethernet) and makes it look functional - but ifconfig
doesn't work. '/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart' always complains about
non-existent i82365 module and fails to unload pcmcia_core. Then it
gives me the error:
/lib/modules/2.4.17/pcmcia/i82365.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
Which seems reasonable, given that it seems to be using the wrong IRQ,
but what can I do to force it to use IRQ9?
