Hi, I have tried other pci slots too. it is standard 9.0 kernel, i did not switch off any options during compilation. thanks Amit "Mandeep Singh Sandhu" <mandeep_sandhu@infosys.com> on 05/31/2004 09:58:01 AM To: Amit Kumar Singh/HSS@HSS, "Grant" <email@grantmurray.com> cc: <kernelnewbies@nl.linux.org> Subject: RE: PCI init: failure to detect device I have a LAN card with realtek 8139C and it works fine. Linux shud detect it during boot time unless u've turned of that feature off during kernel compilation! u can try another PCI slot and see if gets detected - /dev/mandeep -----Original Message----- From: kernelnewbies-bounce@nl.linux.org [mailto:kernelnewbies-bounce@nl.linux.org]On Behalf Of aksingh@hss.hns.com Sent: Monday, May 31, 2004 8:31 AM To: Grant Cc: kernelnewbies@nl.linux.org Subject: Re: PCI init: failure to detect device Hi, I face a similar problem with my LAN card, I bought a realtek pci lan card, but lspci doesnt detect a ethernet controller even when i plug it into one of my pci slots, i use redhat 9.0, kernel version 2.4.20-8. Any clues ? thanks Amit Grant <email@grantmurray.com>@nl.linux.org on 05/30/2004 05:02:41 AM Sent by: kernelnewbies-bounce@nl.linux.org To: kernelnewbies@nl.linux.org cc: Subject: PCI init: failure to detect device My motherboard (Asus P4P800 Dlx) has an ICH5/5R controller hub that includes, amongst many other things, a Serial ATA controller. lspci fails to list the device. The "unusual" fact here is that there are no SATA disk drives connected to the SATA controller. However, I would still expect that the SATA controller would be recognized. Why is not being found by the kernel PCI initialization code that finds PCI devices? Is it because, 1: The motherboard BIOS sees no connected hard drives and "hides" it; or 2: The SATA controller chip sees no connected hard drives and "hides" itself; or 3: The kernel PCI init code sees no connected hard drives and skips it. (AFAICT the kernel is NOT doing this) or 4: something else. If there is anyone else out there, who has a SATA controller but no SATA disks, do you see the controller in lspci?
