>Description:
Summary:
Device ed0 fails with ``device timeout'' unless controller snd0 exists.
Rambling explanation:
Frankly I don't expect anyone to believe this. I barely believe it myself.
I recently bought my son a computer (so I could use my own now and
again...) It came with a sound card but no speakers so I just took the
speakers off of my machine and put them on his. Now I cvsup sources and
rebuild my kernel fairly regularly (mainly for pure hack pleasure) and so
once I didn't have any speakers I figured I might as well comment the
sound support out of my kernel config file. As you might have guessed
from the above summary, when I reboot --
axis /kernel: ed0: device timeout
Now at first, I thought that somebody must have recently made a bogus
update. But I checked the date on if_ed.c and it hadn't been changed
since I last made a kernel. So I did the obvious thing, I put the sound
support back in the kernel, rebooted, bingo I've got ethernet again.
Frankly I've had problems with my cheap NE2000 clone getting timeouts
before. But ONLY when I'm booting a kernel without sound support! i.e. a
fresh install. This has been happening since, heck, I don't know, version
1.1 as far as I can remember. Kind of a pain installing without being
able to use the ethernet card, but I've always been able to find a way
around it so I've never really worried about it. Once the kernel config
option was placed in the install I thought ``Great! Now I can FTP install
again.'' But even with the correct irq and port it still wouldn't work.
It never occured to me that the reason I couldn't use ethernet was because
the GENERIC kernel didn't have sound support!
Well, I'm not sure what anyone can do about this, or even whether anything
should be done. But it certainly is a bug...
What I'd really like is for someone to suggest a real nice PCI ethernet
card (and a good on-line place to buy it.)
I'm including dmesg output and my kernel config in case it matters.
Joshua Lackey.

>How-To-Repeat:
I'm not sure. It may only be reproduceable if you have a cheap NE2000
clone.
>Fix:
Hehehe. Include ``controller snd0'' in your kernel config file.
