  1. The problem isn't hotplugging, I FOUND IT! w00t!

    I upgraded my entire system EXCEPT the kernel, and it worked fine. This included removing the hotplug package (it got integrated into another one). Therefore, the problem lies somewhere between kernels 2.6.12 and 2.6.15. I have a transcript of all the modifications to the atmel_cs driver between the versions:

    Excerpt from Linux Kernel 2.6.13 changelog:

     

    commit 4a17a119381a5467144b18eaa954ba324e8a140b

    Author: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

    [PATCH] pcmcia: id_table for atmel_cs.c

     

    Add pcmcia_device_id table.

     

    atmel_cs.c? Hmm...... Looks promising. But there's more.

    And this, from the 2.6.14 log:

     

    [PATCH] tpm: fix tpm_atmel.c on ICH6

     

    While installing Debian on our new IBM X41 Tablet, I tried briefly to use

    the built-in Atmel TPM. The Athmel TPM is also located on the LPC-bus of

    the ICH6. To make it work I had to apply the following patch:

     

    And this:

    [PATCH] atmel_cs : WE-17 support

     

    This adds support for WE-17 to the atmel_cs driver. Not

    tested, I don't have the HW.

     

    Untested? Not good. I looked for a patch, and found this:

     

    [PATCH] TPM compile fix

     

    CC drivers/char/tpm/tpm_nsc.o

    drivers/char/tpm/tpm_nsc.c:277: error: `platform_bus_type' undeclared here (not in a function)

    ...

    CC drivers/char/tpm/tpm_atmel.o

    drivers/char/tpm/tpm_atmel.c:175: error: `platform_bus_type' undeclared here (not in a function)

     

    Make sure to include proper headers.

     

    Bad headers... Oog...

     

    Should I email this to someone at the dev team? The problem is definitely in the kernel.

    And anyone else reading this, I warned you about the bump.

    EDIT:

    -Plug the PCMICA wireless card and the USB wireless adaptator

    What if I don't have a USB adaptor?


  2. I never hotplug networking peripherals. The Ubuntu wiki... is seriously outdated in spots. It only applies for Breezy for that card- nothing about Dapper. But anyways, thanks a ton for the file- even if it doesn't have the Bel6020 file, which I heard about on the NDISWraper wiki.

    Do you think I should recompile my kernel with Atmel support (if I download the drivers from sf.net)? I need a fix quick, because I'm going away for a month later today (so if this thread gets bumped after a month, you'll know why).


  3. I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 5.10 to 6.06 via "sudo dist-upgrade". This has apparently cost me support for my Belkin F5D6020 WNIC, which I have used for a year.

    What I've done:

    1. Ran the drver with Wine, unshielded the cabinet files, and looked for driver files. Found none.

    2. Downloaded RealTek's Net8180.inf driver and installed with NDISWrapper -i and used -d with lspci.

    3. Googled for more info. In almost every case, there was a file called "Bel6020.inf", which was nowhere on the Web to be found, OR on the driver or ANY of the cabinets, or ANYWHERE on the accompanying driver CD. Sending me that file via email would be appreciated.

    4. Ran it in Knoppix, and it said my PIRQs didn't match. I'm running it with "pci=usepirqmask" right now.

    Any advice?
