dlublink: Thanks for all the work you are doing trying to track this down. Here is what little information I have related to your comments:
I am currently running Gutsy with 2.6.22-14 on a Thinkpad 770Z with a 16-bit MA401 card. The Thinkpad does have a serial port. The bug exists, and the workaround works. It panics when booting either normal or single user with the card installed. It panics when the card is inserted while running in single user mode. It does not panic when the card is inserted after a normal boot. However, it also does not always configure the card correctly. Often (usually?) I need to manually ifdown/ifup to get network. Somewhere along the line, something changed so that KDM no longer starts automatically on boot when the workaround is in place, but can be started manually. When the workaround is removed, it does start automatically. Don't understand why that is, since it used to work, but it's probably not terribly important. I tried to get a kern.log when booting with the card inserted, but when I then rebooted without the card and looked in kern.log, I couldn't find any entries from the failed boot, only from the second, successful boot. Is there something special I need to do to get that log? -- Feisty's Kernel Panics With Netgear MA401 PCMCIA Wireless Installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/95817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
