I have invested much time and effort toward switching from Win2k to Linux, but if I can't get fibrechannel working it's not going to happen. Applying the patch & compiling went fine. But the new kernel doesn't recognize the FC host adapter (though the bios does) and there is no dpt_i20 module so I can't insmod. I don't know how to tell whether the driver is in the kernel. Maybe I'm just not smart enough for Linux. ver_linux Linux hydra.darkmatter.com 2.4.2-0.1.49 #1 Sun Apr 15 18:12:33 MDT 2001 i686 unknown Gnu C 2.96 Gnu make 3.79.1 binutils 2.10.91.0.2 util-linux 2.10r modutils 2.4.2 e2fsprogs 1.19 reiserfsprogs 3.x.0b PPP 2.4.0 isdn4k-utils 3.1pre1 Linux C Library 2.2.2 Dynamic linker (ldd) 2.2.2 Procps 2.0.7 Net-tools 1.57 Console-tools 0.3.3 Sh-utils 2.0 Modules Loaded via82cxxx_audio ac97_codec binfmt_misc autofs nls_iso8859-1 nls_cp437 -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: DPT PM3755F Fibrechannel Host Adapter Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2001 08:51:57 -0600 From: cacook@freedom.net To: Marko Kreen CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org In-Reply-To: <20010414233426Z131976-682+268@vger.kernel.org> <20010415020433.B13190@l-t.ee> Thank you Marko. This was exactly what I was looking for. And thank you very much Omar Kilani for the retrofit. But kernel doesn't recognize the adapter. Installed the patch, compiled, installed, & everything seemed to go fine. Booted to IDE... no problems, except the DPT HA wasn't recognized. There was no mention of the DPT in messages, either recognized as hardware, nor to load the driver. I am running an MSI KT7Turbo mobo with Athlon 850. Six PCI & no IDE. DPT PM3755F fibrechannel host adapter is in the first slot & has two Cheetahs attached. Outfit works fine in Winders2k. Trying to move to kernel 2.4.2, in RedHat Wolverine. Please help. -- C.
