radeonfb failure error after mainboard swap
 

Hello.

I've recently swapped out a mainboard on a machine.

The old mainboard was an Asus A7N8X mainboard, it was swapped out for an
Intel S5000VSA mainboard.

As expected, I do expect errors when I do something this major.

In the syslog I get these two errors:

scsi: <fdomain> Detection failed (no card)
radeonfb: probe of 0000:09:0c.0 failed with error -16

Now, everything appears to be functioning properly on the box. Video,
network, keyboard, etc all appear to work fine. Which tells me that these
errors are not crucial, but should be resolved.

How do I resolve these errors?

I'm gathering the radeonfb one is occurring because there is no onboard
Radeon chip anymore, how do I unload that module safely?

I don't know what to do about the SCSI one, there is a 3Ware 9550SX inside
but it was left in the box. Obviously, it's booting so it knows it's there.

Oh, If you are all probably wondering why I'm making this post here when it could
just simply do a "rmmod radeonfb", I want to be 100 percent sure that I know what I'm
doing before I do this, as this machine can't go down! :) I just want to make sure that
there isn't anything else I should take into consideration before I do this.

Your help is highly appreciated!

For the radeon chip module:

go to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and open it up in your favorite text editor. add a line that looks like this

blacklist radeonfb*

<EDIT>
blacklist radeonfb

Sorry, I goofed that one :-D
</EDIT>

where radeonfb is the EXACT name of the module that keeps showing up as an error on boot.

For the SCSI problem: I'm not sure whether your problem is due to a kernel module that is attempting to load itself and is no longer necessary/valid or something else. please check your sys logs and post the output that is relevant to the SCSI driver prob so we can take care of it.

Happy Hunting :-)
