Hi all, I installed a new machine with this SCSI controller 03:02.0 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp. QLA2312 Fibre Channel Adapter (rev 02) The problem is that firmware cannot be loaded on this board. When loading the qla2xxx driver, I get these messages: QLogic Fibre Channel HBA Driver ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:03:02.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 177 qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Found an ISP2312, irq 177, iobase 0xffffc20000f70000 qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Configuring PCI space... qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Configure NVRAM parameters... qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Verifying loaded RISC code... qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Mailbox command timeout occured. Scheduling ISP abort. qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: [ERROR] Failed to load segment 0 of firmware qla2xxx 0000:03:02.0: Failed to initialize adapter Trying to free free IRQ177 Browsing the archives of linux-scsi I found a solution[1]: a patch missing from the suse linux kernel. Sadly this was about an old versione of the kernel, while the current one already include it. I am using kernel 2.6.16.21. Any idea about what the problem could be?
