Make sure the modules in boot_bv can be loaded in your system.
I encountered some problems on dell gx260, the modules do not work on it.
Hi, I'm wondering what this means? We have one gx260 that works, however we have several other gx260 that don't. The problems are, as you say, with the bv module. Now, how can it be that it works on one machine, but not on any others? Any details about this?
Ok, mistery solved. Other than the graphics card, the only difference between the working-GX260s and the nonworking ones was that the latter had 2 memory modules on the motherboard. After we removed one of them, bv.o would automagically stop crashing! Before that, it would die on ioremap(), so we guess that it wasn't very happy with memory interleaving or something. Now, we finally have machines that work (and quite an amount of spare RAM). Hope this helps anyone else having the same problem. -- Matija Puzar Department of Informatics, University of Oslo Postbox 1080 Blindern, N-0316 Oslo tel: +47 22 85 27 87, fax: +47 22 85 24 01
