| |
We received the following bug report at http://bugs.debian.org/341801
| I have a Asus A8V with 4GB of RAM. When I turn on the hardware memory | hole in the BIOS, the skge driver prints out this message: | skge hardware error detected (status 0xc00) | and then does not work. Setting debug=16 doesn't really show anything.
Another users confirms this bug, saying:
| I'm running kernel 2.6.15-1-amd64-generic version 2.6.15-6, and see | the very same thing. | So I have to turn off the memory remapping feature that allows the | system to see all 4 gig of memory, and thus lose the use of about 200 | megabytes of memory. | Hardware: ASUS A8V Deluxe, 4G RAM, Athlon 64 3200+ CPU.
This problem has probably been there forever and also happens with the sk98lin driver:
| With sk98lin under both 2.6.12 and 2.6.17 I get the following message, | repeated countless times, and finally a hang: [this is copied from | screen on to a sheet a paper and re-typed, beware typos]:
| eth0: Adapter failed | eth0: -- ERROR -- | class: Hardware failure | Nr: 0x264 | Msg: unexpected IRQ Status error
The bug is still present in 2.6.17 -mm6:
| -mm6 does not work with skge and the hardware memory hole. It gave | these messages:
| skge eth0: enabling interface | skge 0000:00:0a.0: PCI error cmd=0x117 status=0x22b0 | skge unable to clear error (so ignoring them) | skge eth0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex, flow control tx and rx
| DHCP never managed to get an IP address.
Any idea what to do about this? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
