Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
Hi,

I am having a problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc, which I need to do to restart it at a higher speed.
After I have slayed it, if I attempt to run 'ps -e' it freezes, and cannot be terminated with CTRL C (but it can be 
stopped with CTRL Z). Other commands also freeze (e.g. 'shutdown'). 
The driver is rtl8169. 

I have attached my pci -vv

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Regards, Roger

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
What version of the O/S are you running?

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
I have never had a problem slaying io-pkt with the rtl8169 driver. I have
attached the latest driver from SP1, so please try that.

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
Further to my last e-mail, if you want to slay io-pkt you must first make
sure that anything that is running against io-pkt is slayed first.
eg. inetd, dhcp.client etc.

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
OK thanks Hugh, 
I have tried the new driver but it has not effected the problem. 
We have some different machines which run the same OS and driver, and they have no problem slaying and restarting io-pkt
. Could it be somehow related to the hardware? Another thread about a different io-pkt slaying problem mentioned 
something about interrupts. Also is there any error log which would shed light on the issue (I checked sloginfo but 
there was nothing)?

Cheers, Roger

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
You can try starting the driver in verbose mode and see if there is
anything in sloginfo. (io-pkt-v4 -drtl8169 verbose=3). If there is nothing
in sloginfo, then I will only be able to do something with the driver if I
have the hardware.

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
The problem is that I need to slay io-pkt first, which I cannot do.

Is there a system config file or startup script which is used to start io-pkt on startup? If so I could just modify it.
Otherwise, is there a way of preventing io-pkt from starting on boot (a 'safe mode, no networking' or something like 
that)?

Cheers, Roger

Re: Problem slaying io-pkt-v4-hc   
You can edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and in that script file, slay
io-pkt and re-start it with whatever parameters you need. If that doesn't
work, then you can always edit the /etc/system/enum/devices/net file and
remove the line(s) for your device ID, so the driver won't be started
automatically. You can then start the driver in the /etc/rc.d/rc.local
file.
