Description Jan Hrabe 2004-11-02 08:43:26 UTC
I used the LiveCD with 2.6 kernel to bootstrap the system but
now I have to use the 2.4 kernel and the tg3 driver would not load
(init_module: No such device).  There does not seem to be any other
option (like bcm5700) included.  The HW is Dell Precision WS 370,
the card seems to be BMC5751.  The kernel is 2.4.26-gentoo-r9.

Thanks,
Honza

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Boot
2.  modprobe tg3

Actual Results:  
init_module: No such device 

Expected Results:  
Module loaded and working, similarly to the 2.6 kernel. 

I am new to gentoo, perhaps I missed something.

Please post output of "lspci" and "lspci -n"

We need a lspci as asked in comment #1; if you could provide us with one then please reopen this bug. Thanks!

Comment 4 Jan Hrabe 2005-01-12 08:17:14 UTC
The kernel release 2.4.28-gentoo-r5 seems to have fixed the problem.  The tg3
driver now loads fine and as far as I can tell works just fine.
