Update 4.008: Syskonnect driver version 4.11 again?

Hi,

I just tested the update to 4.008 on a testing machine which has only got Intel cards installed. The production machines have Syskonnect cards SK9821-V2 (!) installed, which are actually running.

Now I found the following in the testmachine's kernel log:

Jun 27 16:15:13 (none) kernel: sk98lin: Network Device Driver v4.11
Jun 27 16:15:13 (none) kernel: Copyright (C) 2000-2001 SysKonnect GmbH.
Jun 27 16:15:13 (none) kernel: No adapter found

If this is true, the update will kill our production firewall, as driver version 6.0 is needed for the V2 cards! ASL 4.0 included the necessary kernel patch from www.syskonnect.de.

Did you forget to include this patch into the new kernel? If yes, please tell me what to do...

Regards,

Christopher

Hi,

There were no changes in SysKonnect drivers so if you hardware works with the 4.007 it should work fine after the update too.

Have you just loaded the module manually? In this case, there is an other module, sk98lin-x.o, please try it.

Greetings,

Hi,

we just installed the update on our production firewall - worked without any problems. Please excuse my first panic - I just don't want any risk.

Regards,

Christopher
