 Posted: Sat Feb 04, 2006 1:09 am Post subject: Agere ET1310/MSI-1036/L715 network card not recgsed.[solved] |
 |
|
Greetings all,
I am trying to install gentoo on my new laptop, using "install-amd64-universal-2005.1-r1" cd, but unfortunately my network card is not being picked up. ifconfig and lspci both list eth0 as being unrecognized.
I've sent an email to Agere.com, regarding linux drivers as I couldn't find any. Also it is interesting to note that their press release during the launch of the product did mention a full set of driver for linux 2.2 and 2.4 versions.!!
Any help on how to get this working is much appreciated.
Cheers

Greetings all,
Okay..may be ( for sure ) I am thick and hence didn't post any lspci or dmesg information which might provoke a response from the kind hearted and knowledgable members of the forum...
lspci out....
0000:04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Agere Systems: Unknown device ed00 (rev01)
Subsytem: Micro-Strar International Co. Ltd.: Unknown device 0361

Memory at ffdfe000 (32 bit, non prefetchable)

dmesg | grep eth does not yield any results at all.
ifconfig only shows the loop back interface.
modprobe'ing a number of drivers under /lib/modules/2.6.12-genotoo-r10/kernel/drivers/net doesn't seem to help.
No replies from Agere systems to email queries..of course...I'm again being stupid expecting them to be helpful...
Any ideas or suggestioins welcome...
Cheers

In one word. Nope.
Still trying though...Thought I'd try and install the base system...went up as far as compiling the kernerl...then realised that you'd need to emerge the gentoo-sources...duhh....might download the sources myself and use a usb drive...
Tried using ubuntu, no luck...currently d/ling knoppix.
This is my laptop...
http://www.msicomputer.com/NB/product_spec.asp?model=MS-1036
dmesg also shows "pcie_portdrv_probe->Dev has invalid IRQ. Check vendor BIOS" errors...so I tried using the "pci=routeirq" kernel option during boot, no luck, also tried, "noapic" and "nousb", just to try and avoid any irq conflicts...as usual no luck.
It's just amazing that Agere systems is saying they support linux in thier product brief ( Jun 2005 ), http://www.agere.com/entnet/ethernet.html
Well the search goes on...
Thankx for asking... |

For some manufacturers, "supporting linux" means that they have a driver, but not necessarily that they make the driver available to the general public. For example Broadcom has Linux drivers for their wifi chips (the chips are used for example in the Linksys WRT54G router, that runs an embedded Linux), but those drivers are only available to companies that buy the chips, and not to end users. Same problem with Texas Instruments.
The product brief is probably intended for companies that may want to use the chip in their own products, and not for end users, so you need to keep that in mind when reading it. |

I *think* I've got the Broadcom wireless network card working ( ie not the topic of this thread, but the MSI 1036 that we all have has one of these wireless cards as well ). I have to go home to test it on my wireless network, but the driver is loading and giving me an eth0 device anyway  |

I just tried the above driver for the ET1310 out. Unfortunately it doesn't compile on 64bit systems 
I used babelfish to translate the German forum you linked to - people there are having the same trouble on x86-64 systems. Hopefully someone can fix it and post a link soon ... I'll keep watching. |

Yes I thought so...the readme file with the driver pkg did mention that it wasn't tested with 64bit version.
Agreed. Will post any news I find here. |

I guess my question is, how did a russian site come up with this driver and nobody else has it available? Not even the manufacturer has a link or any info on it. ???
I guess to get this working, I'd have to extract the rpm, and then make a new bootable cd with it on there. Btw, 2006.0 sees the card correctly, just no driver loaded for it and I don't see it in /lib/modules/2.6.15-gentoo-r5/kernel/drivers/net.

I don't think there is a compiled module. There is source.
You could put the src on a separate cdrom, usb key, etc. Or you could whack in a PCMCIA network card that actually works ... no need to make a special boot CD with it on there.
Note, however, that it doesn't compile on 64-bit systems, which is pretty damned stooopid, considering the card is advertised as being designed for 64-bit systems.
As for why no-one has any details apart from a Russian site ... I'd say they've reverse-engineered it - but I could be wrong. |

Well, I tried running the make file after looking at some of the files in it and it fails when making the modules. It does appear to be legitimate software though.
Also found that it hasn't been approved by the kernel maintainers as of yet. It's been out since August of 2005. Don't know why, but that's what I've found so far. Maybe it's not on a lot of other systems yet?

I worked on the source code and have been able to compile it on x86 and x86_64.
There are a few warnings, but all the errors are gone.
Was also able to modprobe it successfully. I don't that have NIC on my system though
so waiting for results on someone that does.
Should be able to report back soon if works with the NIC.
Will know as soon as d_adams LiveCD is ready.

Currently working on compiling a 2006.0 catalyst cd. On stage 2 now, so hopefully by tomorrow I should have something that works with this. I have made the module, but am waiting to put it into the livecd to make it easier for an end result. If I get this to work, I'll host it on a ftp for a while if anyone wants it.
I can hardly wait to get Gentoo on this laptop!

Grrr, catalyst is a little bit of a pain to work with. Last stage2 attempt failed compiling the kernel, didn't have time to finish it today. Will be working on it this weekend and will hopefully get it all finished. I'm also writing another semi-howto on catalyst, mainly so that if I have to ever do this again, I'll at least have a reference point to start from. If anybody wants to mess with this stuff, I have some files/info/how-to's hosted on googlepages. The catalyst info is incomplete as of right now though.

I bought the same notebook like yours this week (MSI L715), ofcourse with the same problems
I tried to install with the 'install-amd64-minimal-2006.0.iso' disc.
Maybe I should use the networkless installation way, because this won't be solved in a short period, I think?

Well, I got catalyst to work finally, had lots of little things making it difficult to do. However, I am getting a "tainted kernel" and it won't insert the module correctly from the livecd. It will insert correctly on my working system, and I think it may have something to do with the livecd stripping out /usr/src/linux somewhere along the line. I've been kindly told how to add the driver into menuconfig, so I'm giving it another go today.
| Code: | root@k8ns939 livecd # modprobe et131x

I just tried it using the information on above link.
lsmod shows:
| Code: |

But still eth0 gives no anwer.
So, I rebooted, and checked dmesg, where I found following lines:

Not yet, still working on this mess. I may have the wrong depends for the kernel, ie;
| Code: | tristate "ET131x Agere Systems Gigabyte Ethernet support"
+ depends on PCI && EXPERIMENTAL |
I will be trying other options to see if they work, like this one instead of the above ones.
| Code: | | depends on NET_PCI && PCI && EXPERIMENTAL |
This one is a little bit of a pain to work with since the kernel developers haven't saw fit to include it in the kernel yet. I'm not a coder/programmer, I'm just another idiot who bought an expensive laptop that wants to run Gentoo on it.

Hey apu_be, is the device showing up in udev: /sys/module/et131x
It doesn't on mine, but that might be because it actually don't have the device.
It should show up there. If udev isn't working with it it isn't going to work. If it
is then maybe we can fix it. Hey at least we got it to compile and modprobe.
That's a start.
d_adams, would you check on that also, plus if you get one config to work,
see if it shows up then in /sys if it hasn't before that.
Here are some options to try:
| Code: | decibels# modinfo et131x
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.15-gentoo-r1/kernel/drivers/net/et131x.ko
license: BSD
description: 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet Driver for the ET1310, v1.0.0 08/01/2005 13:06:00 by Agere Systems, http://www.agere.com
author: Victor Soriano (vjsoriano@agere.com)
alias: pci:v000011C1d0000ED01sv*sd*bc*sc*i*
alias: pci:v000011C1d0000ED00sv*sd*bc*sc*i*
depends:
vermagic: 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 gcc-3.4
parm: et131x_nmi_disable:Disable NMI (0-2) [0] (i)
parm: et131x_debug_flags:l
parm: et131x_debug_level:Level of debugging desired (0-7) (i) |
I tried something like this real quick:
| Code: | | modprobe -v et131x et131x_debug_level=5 |
and got
| Code: | grep et131x /var/log/kern.log
Mar 5 16:17:29 decibels et131x.ko:>:et131x_init_module
Mar 5 16:17:29 decibels et131x.ko:>>:et131x_pci_register
Mar 5 16:17:29 decibels et131x.ko:TRACE:et131x_pci_register 0 device(s) found
Mar 5 16:17:29 decibels et131x.ko:<<:et131x_pci_register
Mar 5 16:17:29 decibels et131x.ko:<:et131x_init_module
|
So you could tail /var/log/kern.log and modprobe it with debug level set to 7 and see if get more info on
what the problem is, plus check if udev is picking up the module.
Also, try the modules with the option et131x_nmi_disable and see if works.
| Quote: | Explanation: Some low-level hardware problems cause the generation of a non-maskable interrupt, or NMI. The most common example is a parity error. This interrupt causes all processing to immediately cease so the error condition can be handled. Some systems, when this situation is detected, will give you the option of disabling the NMI signal and continuing on, or rebooting the machine (while others will just halt the system and force you to do a hardware reset). This error message should always be encountered with another error message before it, which states what the cause of the NMI was.
Recommendation: Address the problem by diagnosing the error message that caused the NMI.
Warning: Disabling NMI will cause the system to keep booting, ignoring the error condition. This can lead to unpredictable results and is not recommended. |
So I wouldn't do it on the kernel boot line, but when you modprobe it. You might just want to wait until you see if you get that error in kern.log also.

Because I've been having difficulty getting catalyst to do exactly what I want, I'm stopping on it for the moment. I've decided to do a stage4 dump onto the laptop just to test out the modules and patches on the actual hardware to see if it even works. I'll only be doing x86 for now, but I have to know if this is even going to work or not. If anybody with a little bit of catalyst experience wants to give me a hand, please do. I can get it to build a working livecd, but haven't been able to add the custom modules to it that I want to include.

Oh Yeah!!!!!!!!!!! That's right, the module does work! x86 anyways. More to follow in a while, but it was done on vanilla-sources 2.6.16-rc5 as of 8:05 am CST today. No pretty screen (console only @ 1280x1024), but at least my network is working.
