ISAPNP grabbing I/O region reserved for PCI device on 2.6.12 (regression from 2.6.10)

[Jose Manuel Martinez Carrion]

The Kernel 2.6.12.x don't work with RLT-8139/8139C/8139C+ network interface

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

Could you be more specific about what doesn't work, and how? Is there some error
message you are refering to? I know that breezy kernel works with 8139, because
I have this type of card in atleast one machine.

[Jose Manuel Martinez Carrion (fourier21)]

Pardon is my first one bug :)

Then when I start with kernel 2.6.12 Ubuntu does not recognize my card of
network, I can't connect to internet, but with the 2.6.10 it uses it perfectly.
Neither with the Live Eval it recognizes my card or, so I do not believe that it
is that I need algun package.

If you want that I sends some .log to you...

P.D. My English is very bad, this I have been translated automatically, pardons
for that reason

When I boot with kernel 2.6.12 I can't conect to internet, Ubuntu only encounter
a modem that I don't have. In the device manager i can see my RTL-8319, but it
don't work

Odd, 8139cp recognized the card, and correctly notes that it isn't an 8139cp, so
drop to let 8139too handle it. However, 8139too doesn't seem to be picking it up.

Can you do:

sudo rmmod 8139too
sudo rmmod 8139cp
sudo modprobe 8139too
ifconfig -a

Send the output to all those commands please.

Man, I totally missed the error in dmesg from 8139too (was expecting it to come
after the 8139cp driver messages).

Ok, can you now send me the lspci -vvn with the working 2.6.10 kernel? Please
use the "Create a New Attachment" link, instead of pasting directly in a comment.

Also, under the 2.6.12 kernel, please attach the output of "cat /proc/ioports"
and "cat /proc/iomem".

[Jose Manuel Martinez Carrion (fourier21)]

Created an attachment (id=4116)

Well, sorry for delay,here this what you requested to me, I hope that it helps
you.

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

I need /proc/ioports and /proc/iomem for 2.6.12 kernel, not 2.6.10, thanks.

the good file

well, it mistakes when putting the labels, here this the good file

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

Ok, this is the part I was looking at:

de00-deff : 0000:00:0c.0
  de00-de03 : motherboard
    de00-de03 : pnp 00:00

That first memory range (de00-deff) is the I/O memory reserved for the 8139
device, and it is the showing the right PCI ID. However, the first 4 bytes are
actually being used by motherboard/pnp? Not sure why that is.

Can you send me /proc/ioports from 2.6.10 please?

[Ben Collins (ben-collins)]

Try booting with noisapnp option, please. Looking back at the dmesg, PNP surely
reserves this area, which it shouldn't.

Since noisapnp alone didn't do it, try all these options together:

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this linux-source-2.6.15 kernel bug to the new "linux" package. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Also, if you would be interested in testing the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release, it is available at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . Please let us know your results. Thanks!

[Leann Ogasawara (leannogasawara)]

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

[williamts99 (williamts99)]

This bug still remains for Intrepid Ibex.

[williamts99 (williamts99)]

I would like to correct my above statement, as I tested in Intrepid there was a connector failure. And the network card is working for me in Intrepid.

[Jef (ofthelit)]

Just tested with a live cd of Ubuntu 8.10 and the network card still doesn't work.
The green led lights up when a cable is plugged in (like hardy).
Also, the interface is called "pan0", while it was "eth0" in Hardy Heron.

Unassigned from Ben Collins. Marked Won't Fix for kernel source for Dapper. I need one of the people experiencing this currently to provide us with 'apport-collect -p linux 22575' from the most recent kernel possible. I prefer this be from the Lucid Alpha 3 and/or the most current mainline build of the kernel.

I'd like to get this in front of the Kernel team soon.

I have two of these cards. They were used by a friend in an old Pentium serving as router. It ran Red Hat and was replaced by a wireless router when it didn't boot. I think the hard disk had errors.

The PC which generated the report had another working network card when running the test. When I plugged in the network cable, no LEDs gave light, while the other same card did light up (used in my first comment). If you want, I can test that one too if you think this one might be broken. However, I don't have it available now. Let me know.

[Jeremy Foshee (jeremyfoshee)]

Jef Van den Brandt,
      That sounds worthwhile if you don't mind testing the other card.

Thanks!

The other card doesn't light up either.
I think I confused it with another card I bought shortly after that. It wouldn't establish a connection, but the lights were on. Got replaced, still the same, removed the network applet, configured it manually and it worked.

I tested the second card with the same kernel and a kernel from mainline. The resulting files are both attached.

Jose Manuel Martinez Carrion, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

As there has been no new activity by the original reporter on this report in several years, and as the reported release is no longer supported, I am closing this bug as "Won'tFix" for the "linux (Ubuntu)" task.

If you are experiencing this or a similar issue with a supported Ubuntu version please create a new bug report against that version using:
