Component:	Alpha	Assignee:	Richard Henderson (rth)

Severity:	normal

Description David Johnson 2004-04-15 13:05:07 UTC

Distribution: Debian Testing
Hardware Environment: DEC Alphastation 255/300 (Avanti CPU)
Software Environment: gcc 3.3.3 (Debian 20040401)
Problem Description: 

Upon booting, the driver hangs the system when it should be looking for devices.
I am unable to test whether this is Alpha-specific or not.

2.4.24 does not have this problem; I haven't had time to test 2.4.25 yet.

I also experience this bug with 2.6.5 (new driver) but I think this is a known
problem on 2.6?

I'll try to provide whatever information is needed.

After asking around on LKML, this seems to be an Alpha specific issue.

This seems to be fixed in newer kernels; closing this bug.
