Bug#542358: linux-image-2.6.30-1-686: "e100" module refuses to load
Package: linux-image-2.6.30-1-686
Version: 2.6.30-5
Severity: normal
Hello !
I have recently upgraded the kernel to 2.6.30 (squeeze) from a running 2.6.26.
During the upgrade I got this error:
Setting up linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 (2.6.30-5) ...
Running depmod.
Running update-initramfs.
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.30-1-686
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/e100/d102e_ucode.bin for module e100
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/e100/d101s_ucode.bin for module e100
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/e100/d101m_ucode.bin for module e100
Running update-grub.
In 2.6.26 kernel the dmesg will tell me:
[ 10.884256] e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex
[ 10.888710] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
Which enables the "e100" module to be working.
However in 2.6.30 I cannot connect anymore to the machine over the internet, I assume
that it is becouse of this ethernet module which I am using. The machine seems to boot
into 2.6.30 and then it hangs there. I cannot investigate any further, becouse of the
remote access.
Kind regards,
Jan Prunk
