serious ISDN/HiSax/Kernel problems in 2.2.13 and 2.2.16

serious ISDN/HiSax/Kernel problems in 2.2.13 and 2.2.16

Post by Thomas Brun » Sat, 05 Aug 2000 04:00:00



Hi,

during the last days (nights) I tried to install a internal/PCI
ISDN-card in my PC164LX.
Since ISDN was not installed and the kernel running was
2.2.7-ac-something and not the 2.2.13 delivered with SuSE 6.3 axp
(probably from an earlier installation) I installed lx-suse (Sources of
the delivered Kernel incl. SuSE patches) via yast and compiled a new
kernel including ISDN support as module.
The card is a noname (Highscreen) with a chip signed:
        HFC-S PCI A
        2BDS0 ISDN
        CCD 0002E
so I included HFC PCI support etc. Compiled ... reboot ... installed
ISDN via Yast everything smooth :-).
Then I tried to connect to a provider an nothing happend. Ok I hadnt
really expected it on the first try, but ...

At boot time I saw a message about <i4l_hardware not succeeded> pass by
and after some investigation in the ISDN Subsystem to no avail I found
the following on the console and in ttyS0 || /var/log/warn:

-------------------------------------
But kernel and modules compiled ++without++ error ???
And the modules ++are++ loaded as seen in
-------------------------------------
lsmod:

hisax                 297536   1  (uninitialized)
isdn                  147440   0  [hisax]
slhc                    6976   0  [isdn]
-------------------------------------
I also tried to compile hisax as fixed kernel part (not module) the
result is a shorter message but the same failure.
depmod -e showed no unresolved symbols and ksymoops showes all the
symbols the kernel is complaining about to be missing.
I even tried an 2.2.16 kernel which runs everything fine ++except
hisax++.

So is this a kernel bug ? a hardware problem (cheap card)? ++ Or What
??? ++

++Any++ hints welcome !!

serious ISDN/HiSax/Kernel problems in 2.2.13 and 2.2.16

> Aug  2 20:03:51 alpha kernel: Symbol table has incorrect version number.

I had this problem a few months ago. If I remember correctly, I copied
System.map to /boot and then it worked.
(System.map is created when compiling a new kernel).

HTH,

1. need help with kernel patching 2.2.16 -> 2.2.16-1

Hello,

I am trying to get a clean 2.2.16-1 kernel source so I can do some LRP
development. I have downloaded the kernel-2.2.16-1.i386.srpm from
sourceforge and installed it. Inside of that I have untarred the 2.2.16
clean source. The problem I am having is that applying the patches produces
many errors. I have no idea about which order to apply them in and I think
this is the reason.

Can anyone tell me how to apply all the patches in the SRPM in the correct
order? Is there a shell script or something I am missing?

Thanks.

Erik Myllymaki
