Lock enabling onboard lan (Attansic L1 GbE) on 7.1-PRERELEASE
Hello,
one of my motherboards has an onboard Attansic network interface, I
think an AR8121.
# pciconf -lcv
none0@pci0:4:0:0: class=0x020000
card=0x82261043 chip=0x10481969 rev=0xb0 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Attansic
(Now owned by Atheros)'
device = 'L1 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T
Ethernet Controller'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap
01[40] = powerspec 2 supports D0 D3 current D0
cap 05[48] = MSI supports
1 message, 64 bit
cap 10[58] = PCI-Express 1 endpoint
cap 03[6c] = VPD
Today I decided to give it a try.
But if I try loading the if_age module, the
system prints the following lines and then it freezes.
age0: <Attansic
Technology Corp, L1 Gigabit Ethernet> mem 0xfbdc0000-0xfbdfffff irq 36 at
device 0.0 on pci4
age0: PCI device revision : 0x00b0
age0: Chip id/revision :

age0: MSI count :
1
age0: Using 1 MSI messages.
age0: Read request size : 512 bytes.

Unfortunately I have no longer access to L1 hardware so it looks hard to write a patch for the issue. Would you try following instructions? - Shutdown your box. - Completely remove power cord from your system and wait 5 to 10 min.(Just turning system off is not enough.) - Make sure to plug UTP cable to your controller before system boot. - Plug power cord and let system boot. - Enter BIOS menu and search onboard PCIe LAN configuration in the menu. If "LAN Option ROM" was enabled, disable the option. - Some motherboard might have set another option for "Check Atheros LAN cable". If it was set, disable it. If you also have an option for "Asus Express Gate" try disabling it. - Save changes and reboot. Does that make any difference? -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon

I've disabled "LAN Option ROM", but it seems that I don't have the other options you mentioned. I've downloaded and burned the 7.1-RELEASE dvd and tried to boot from it, but it hangs at the same point. Finally I've tried booting a CURRENT snapshot cd (8.0-CURRENT-200812) and I was able to properly configure the device in sysinstall. Any idea about the problem? I've installed from 7.0 and I have another NIC, but being now age in GENERIC, I hope it will not cause troubles to other people installing for the first time. Anyway thank you for now, and ask me if there is something that I can do to fix the problem like more tests, patches, etc. Best regards Barbara

As I've said, it's not a real problem for me, but I'm so sorry about not having tested before so it could be merged before 7.1-RELEASE, but I had it disabled and nearly forgot about that. Please, feel free to ask whenever you want if you want me doing tests on that NIC. Thanks Barbara
