ilia_kr Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 (edited) Hi there, i have a major problem. I've installed 2008 One Gnome version and it too doesn't automount any of my usb devices. I encountered the same problem on every Linux distro that uses kernel version 2.6.20 and above, namely Ubuntu 7.04/7.10, Fedora 7/8, Suse 10.3. These devices work well on older kernels like in Debian 4.0, MDV 2007.1 and PCLinuxOS 2007. I really need a USB support, please help! The same problem on Kubuntu.

tyme Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 googling indicates that this may be a kernel bug...have you tried it with one of the other kernels available for 2008? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilia_kr Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 googling indicates that this may be a kernel bug...have you tried it with one of the other kernels available for 2008? No, how should i do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Install another kernel and boot to it? I don't remember if Mandriva still hides kernels from RPMDrake or not, if they do you might have to do it from the command line...I personally haven't done it on Mandriva, at least not recently...

ilia_kr Posted November 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 Well, i checked that, and my options are: 1. install a devel kernel (2.6.23) 2. multimedia devel 3. the same kernel i use with 4gb RAM, which i don't have 3. many others In other words - i'm lost here...

Steve Scrimpshire Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 What about this one: [root@localhost ohms]# urpmq --sources kernel-2.6.22.9-1mdv ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/MandrivaLinux/official/2008.0/i586/media/main/release/ kernel-2.6.22.9-1mdv-1-1mdv2008.0.i586.rpm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 none? file a bug on the mandriva bug tracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilia_kr Posted February 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 No newer kernels worked for me, so i've filed a bug report. Hope one day it will be fixed. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 If it's a multi distro bug, file a bug on the kernel bugzilla. Mandriva will probably just ignore it and wait for an upstream fix. If the bugs on either havnt been triaged/commented on after a few weeks, bug them and provide alll the information they ask for. If they still dont fix it, keep bugging them.

coverup Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Could this be a hardware/firmware problem (ie, a noncompliant bridge, etc).? I found the USB and peripherials support in 2008 superior to any other Mandrake Linux system I had before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
