Kernel 3.0.4-1 with sky2 ethernet driver - VLAN problem

Hello,
after installing kernel 3.0.x (any) VLANs stopped working on sky2 driver. Althoug I can add VLAN to interface, i can't ping anything. Tcpdump does not register any traffic on tagged interface.Of course normal (untagged) traffic works without any problems. Everything was fine with 2.6.39 kernels. Under kernel26-lts (2.6.32) everything works perfect.
Some technical details:

Help with hme Ethernet Driver

Hello, I have the Solaris 7 source code (both for sparc and intel). My goal is to alter the hme ethernet driver to do something specific (why i ordered the source code). However, I'm running into a couple of problems. My first test was to just try and compile the source and insert the newly compiled driver to see if it will work (this is half the battle). I am wondering if I can do it with gcc, though. I don't have Sun's Forte cc compiler. Do you know if it's absolutely necessary to have cc to compile something like an ethernet driver for solaris? I have an Ultra-II sparcv9 (ultra 10 workstation) - which is what I am working with now. My first steps were as follows:
Got hme.c from the cd. Checked the header #includes in the file, and everything was fine.
Compiled as follows:
gcc -D_KERNEL -c hme.c
ld -r hme.o -o hme
This worked ok, except for a couple of function re-definition warnings.
Next thing I did was:
$ ifconfig hme0 unplumb
$ rem_drv hme
By default, the ultra 10 boots into 64-bit kernel mode, and i know the 64-bit kernel drivers are stored in /kernel/drv/sparcv9 and the 32-bit drivers are one dir up. So, I made a backup copy of /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme to /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme.BACKUP and then copied my fresh new binary into that directory:
$ cp /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme.BACKUP
$ cp /home/dford/hme /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme
Next :
$ add_drv hme
Here I get the message that the hme driver was loaded but failed to attach. I have seen this before when I did a loopback STREAMS driver, and the problem then was that the driver was compiled as a 32-bit driver, and I was in 64-bit mode. This was fixed by going to the boot prompt and typing:
ok> boot /platform/sun4u/kernel/unix
This boots the OS in 32-bit mode, and that fixed the problem with my Loopback STREAMS driver. However, I tried this with the hme driver I just built and it did not work. I get the same 'failed to attach' error, even after I copy the hme to /kernel/drv (make a backup of original first, though).
Now, I notice that I am missing the character special file that is supposed to exist in the /devices/pseudo directory for the hme driver. I can make one with mknod, but isn't it suppose to do this automatically? Incidentally, my problems get worse: trying to restore the original hme binary and run add_drv produces the same problem (failed to attach). Now I can't restore the system to it's initial working state. The only thing I did was make a backup copy of the hme binary, and after trying a newly compiled hme binary, restore the original hme binary. Rebooting the system - complains that it can't "find" the hme module! After the system comes up, modinfo indeed shows that hme did not load properly.
$ modload hme
-- reports that it can't find the hme module
$ modload /kernel/drv/sparcv9/hme
--works ok, now modinfo shows hme is loaded ok. however, add_drv hme still reports failed to attach.
I don't know how the system's module load path got messed up. As i understand it, this is stored in /etc/system file. I never touched this file.
If you have any experience / ideas with this sort of thing, please let me know your opinions.
Thanks in advance,
Davis

Probelm Solved! The problem has to do with the fact that the kernel looks for a device with the same name as its driver module. In this case the driver module is 'hme', but the device name that is programmed into the card's FCode PROM is called SUNW,hme. Therefore add_drv would always fail. Therefore, to successfully load it, you have to alias the FCode PROM name as follows:
add_drv -m '* 0666 root root' -i 'SUNW,hme' hme
Hope this helps someone else in the future. This wasn't very clear, and took some digging to find out. In addition, the verbose option of add_drv should be changed to give more feedback, other than 'driver failed to attach'.
Incidentally, I found this info at:
http://soldc.sun.com/developer/support/driver/wps/pci/html/Device_Prop.doc.html
One note - they use quotation marks in their example, but add_drv needs apostrophe...trivial, but nonetheless, thought I would point it out.

Internet doesn't work with Killer Ethernet driver installed! PLEASE HELP!

Hi guys,
First of all I might as well start off by saying that I recently upgraded my system to a new build, and so bought some new parts. The motherboard I chose was a MSI z87 gd65 gaming and by gosh is it good to look at, my only problem is that when I install the driver of the disc is that the Killer Ethernet driver doesn't allow me to get internet access (but I am connected to my router).
I have reset windows, reinstalled the driver, restarted my pc, made the bios default and it still persists not to work! I am not sure if it doesn't won't to work with windows 8 because I had to boot from the installation cd. I can't update to windows 8.1 either because I don't have the internet connect/access Nd I can't get another driver because of the same reason!
Has anyone else come across this issue?

Remove Killer driver and suite using >>Killer Cleaner<<. After reboot just install pure drivers: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=174229.0

Airport extreme with USB hard drive permissions problem may be parallels

I cannot access my external hard drive because of some permission problem. I know because I can see this through the disk repair utility. I've attached my external hard drive to my airport extreme. It originally came up well and worked fine. Then it lost connection and now doesn't recognize my password. To confuse matters worse I have parallels installed. This might be where the password problem is as the mac wants to access as a guest and the parallels (windows MX) as my account name. It's all pretty complicated to explain. What I want to do now is just to forget the airport plan and reach my hard drive but it won't boot up even with airport off and a direct firewire connection. It does show up in disk repair utility but with permissions. How can I get to these permissions and drop them. What if they're windows permissions somehow? How can I get started.
Thanks

I have a very similar problem. I have a 2.8 GHz iMac with 2GB RAM and am using OS X v10.5.4, and an Airport Extreme (v7.3.2), both updated to latest firmware. I have a 500 GB TrekStor external HD connected to the AEBS via USB. The TrekStor HD was pre-formatted in FAT32 and is visible on my iMac's desktop and in Finder but I cannot transfer files to it or see files on it. When I drag and drop a file on the TrekStor, it sometimes seems to go well but then the file is not visible via Finder, and sometimes I get an "insufficient privileges" message. I repair permissions on the iMac's internal HD without any change. I am logged in as the admin. All assistance is much appreciated!

Qosmio G15-AV501 with 5700 video, driver install problem.

Hi, I have a Qosmio G15-AV501 and I want to install the video drivers for it. It has a Nvidia Geforce 5700 in it, so I downloaded the drivers for it.
But when I try to install/run the drivers, it tells me there is no compatible card in the computer. I checked device manager and the 5700 shows up there fine.
So what gives?

I'm having similar issues but I managed to get the G15-AV501R driver here to work - the qg152videonx.exe driver works but shows the display adapter as an nVidia GeForce Go 6600 now. Don't know why but it works. Now if someone can explain why the Audio and modem drivers for the AV501 won't work and where to find ones that will I'll be happy camper too...

How to solve the ethernet driver problem

Hi,
My desktop consist of harddisk capacity of 300gp,which consist of the OS windows xp.
Now i need to remove windows xp and i want to install oel5 only.
But my problem is with the ethernet driver because while i work with windows xp i have no ethernet driver so i installed it seperately and everything is worked fine.
And my question is if i install only oel5 wheather the same problem will exist or not then how i can download the ethernet driver software of oel5
please help me

to solute out this we need to see output of lspci and lsmod (or the manufacture hex code from xp also work.)
And my question is if i install only oel5 wheather the same problem will exist or not then how i can download the ethernet driver software of oel5
its depend on the vendor id of the NIC.so put your lspci output after the installation of OEL5.4.In general OEL5.4 may give/detect the NIC by its own.

BartPE boot disk and MacBookPro Ethernet driver

Hi,
I have spent the best part of the last 2 days fiddling with BartPE to get it to boot our MacBookPros so that I can use Ghost to image them.
I am having problems with the Ethernet driver. I have added the Yukon Marvel v10.60.6.3 drivers to the drivers folder as Bart documentation says but this driver does not seem to be the one for the MacBookPro. It works on a friend's MacBook where his windows reports the Ethernet to be a Generic Marvell Yukon 88E8053 based ethernet controller.
Has anyone got Bart to boot and network the MacBookPros and if so, can you give me a few pointers as to what I must be doing wrong.
thanks

Hi bghs,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a fantastic place to find answers and information.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I understand that you were unable to boot into Windows, and you suspected the hard drive and tested it, but it passed both short and long test. With that being said and the fact that it also passed leads me to believe the hard drive is fine.
You tested the memory and it failed. You tried reseating and swapping slots but they still failed the test.
I would test each card individual with the memtest to determine if it is just one or both cards that have an issue.
When you installed it in another computer, you did see the recovery partition. Once the memory issue is resolved, if you are still unable to boot into Windows, I suggest you do a recovery with the minimized image. Here is a link to Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8) to assist you with that process.
I hope this helps.

Problems with Thunderbolt Ethernet Adapter with 10.9.1

Hi!
I made the update to 10.9.1. During the reboot after the installation I had a kernel panic. Now my thunderbolt ethernet adapter is not working any more (it does on other macs). What can I do? I have a MacBook Pro Retina early 2013.
Thanks,
Rex

I meet the same problom with thunderbolt ethernet adapter and resetting NVRAM/PRAM fixed my problem.
reset instruction and good luck

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine. Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection. Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties). The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8. When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!

Problems setting up my TC. Have just bought new iMac(OS 10.6.8) and TC. I tried to set it up. iMac cannot find it. I have tried direct connection with an ethernet cable to Mac or direct to my wireless router but nothing. Just a flashing orange light. Help for a simpleton please. Have tried reseting TC, but to no avail.

Just updated from 10.6.7 ---> 10.6.8 and had the same issue. Despite having done a clean install from 10.6 and got everything back off my TC, now Time Machine can't find it!
Green light is on, ethernet cable conected, network CP says its conected but nothing. Airport Utility can't find it. Hit reset button, Orange flashing light but still no show in Airport Utility.
But I know its there, as rebooting from 10.6 SL disk shows the backups are still ok?
Hmm, ideas anyone?

Already made. In the meantime one more report in VMTN
about the same issue with parallels.
Henri
Can you link to the parallels thread?
I can reliably reproduce a kernel panic in 10.4.8 by ejecting a volume mounted from a host system (default afp mount) that is either of two macintel systems (mini & mbp).
Problem started when I installed Fusion, went away when I de-installed. Both systems also have Parallels (latest build but one) installed.
The workaround of unloading the networking kexts makes me nervous -- sooner or later I'll forget, and then KABLOOEY!

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal?

How do you use Airport extreme at hotels etc, when traveling? I can plug my computer into the Airport with my ethernet but how does Airport pickup signal? What equipment & devices do I need to travel with to make this possible?

You may mean the AirPort Express.....not AirPort Extreme.....as the Express is a popular travel router.
The whole idea behind using this device is that the hotel must provide an Ethernet jack in the hotel room. Then you connect the AirPort Express to the Ethernet jack with an Ethernet cable and configure it to provide your own wireless network in the room. You still have to agree to terms, pay the fees, etc.
The problem with this approach is that it is getting very difficult to find hotels in North America that prrovide an Ethernet jack....most have moved to wireless networks and the others are not far behind.
So, if the hotel is already providing a wireless signal, the AirPort Express is of no use in that situation.
If you normally stay at the same hotels, and know that they provide Ethernet ports, an AirPort Express might make sense in terms of convenience.

Hi, I want to use my Capsule just as a back up via wireless. How do I set this up without connecting it with an ethernet cable to either a router or the iMac??

Hi, I want to use my Capsule just as a back up via wireless. How do I set this up without connecting it with an ethernet cable to either a router or the iMac??

I misunderstood what Time Capsule is and had hoped for a wireless backup device that didn't have to be connected to the router.
The TC is a wireless backup device.. it does not need to be connected to the main router..
The problem is the computer.. not the TC.. the computer has only one wireless card.. if your current internet is by wireless.. then you must choose.. internet or backup.
But my other suggestion will work.. get a wireless USB stick compatible with Mac OS.. there are plenty and cheap.. since you are in the same room as the TC they will work fine.. plug it in and load the driver.. taint hard.
You should do the first backup by ethernet though.. wireless is too slow.. once you have that, you will do fine.
Search ebay for wireless n usb.. Mac compatible..

As you can see.. they are getting smaller and neater.
I have no idea if it works .. haven't tried one.. but I have used USB wireless stick on the Mac to overcome this issue.
You will need to set static IP .. not hard but you need to set specifics if you do buy one post again for the setup.

I have installed the agent 10 or 15 times and one installation has failed, no error appeared during the installation but I am having inconsistent issues with my ethernet card not working here and there. We rebooted and can log into Novell client but the login prompt did not appear for ESM client or the icon was not in the systray. Everything seems to work, besides at times (a couple times today) it terminates his ethernet card/connection. I would re-image his computer but he has several applications and it would take several hours, so I am hoping someone has an idea to fix this issue. So I was trying to figure out why he did not get the prompt to login and why it's not in the systray and it appears to not have completed the install? I checked the add/remove programs, its not listed within their, I also checked the registry and found nothing for endpoint within their, but the files are within c:\program files\novell\zenworks endpoint security.
I have also tried uninstalling it but that fails due to it "not being installed", and it will not reinstall over itself either.
I did notice that stuninstdrv.exe is running in task manager. Any help would be great...

If you are searching the registry, check for the "Senforce" string. It should be at HKLM\Software\Senforce
Try running the install program for the ZSC with the following command line:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1"
If you've specified an uninstall password, try this one instead:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1 STUIP=password"" (please note the double quote at the end)
Let me know if that helped you.
Daniel
