still a problem with the errata kernel ? 'fraid the problem is still there, also with kernel-2.6.13-1.1624_FC5, but either I described the problem backwards or it changed, because I get the problem by loading ohci-hcd *after* ehci-hcd, not before. E.g., if I have ehci-hcd loaded by initrd, and leave ohci-hcd to be loaded in the `Initializing hardware', the system freezes just as the mouse's red led is turned on, when ohci-hcd is loaded. If I load ohci-hcd before ehci-hcd, in initrd, then everything works just fine. With FC5T2 candidate tree, it's even worse: it freezes if I have *anything* whatsoever connected to the USB ports when ehci-hcd is loaded after ohci-hcd. In particular, the HDs onto which I'd like to install are external USB/Firewire drives, so I had to connect them in the Firewire port and hope I wouldn't experience one of the random freezes that I've been getting lately when I use Firewire :-( Since there are a lot of people out there with this kind of hardware, it would be nice to get this somehow fixed or at least have its impact reduced. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you. (this is a mass-close to kernel bugs in NEEDINFO state) As indicated previously there has been no update on the progress of this bug therefore I am closing it as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Please re-open if the issue still occurs for you and I will try to assist in its resolution. Thank you for taking the time to report the initial bug. If you believe that this bug was closed in error, please feel free to reopen this bug. |
