Subject: Ethernet Card Intel Pro100

Hi...

I have loaded the new kernel 2.6.0, but my Ethernet card is not working on it. Its Intel Ether Pro 100B. Could someone help me out with it. Its working perfectly fine with 2.4.21. Is there any special setting to be made for the new kernel? I have used module-init-tools-0.9.14 to install the modules.

Regrads,
Sumit

I had a similar problem; works fine on 2.4 but not 2.6. Turned out the
module worked, but the kernel wasn't automatically loading it. Try
doing 'lsmod' to see if it's loaded (eepro100 I think the module is
called?) and then 'insmod eepro100' if it's not.

Additionally, I've seen hangs with eepro100 with some chipset-buildin
eepro100 variants in newer Intel chipsets. The e100 driver (provided by
Intel, but already included in Linux' sources) seems to work around some
chipset bugs...

I didn't test eepro100 module, but just for the record, e100 module runs
without problems in 2.6.0...

Hi,
I'm using kernel 2.6.0 and works fine. If could be useful my
configuration is:

hardware configuration:
02:08.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM/CA/CAM Ethernet
Controller (rev 03)
Subsystem: COMPAL Electronics Inc: Unknown device 0012
Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV+ VGASnoop-
ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B-
Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort-
<TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
Latency: 66 (2000ns min, 14000ns max), cache line size 08
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11
Region 0: Memory at e8100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
Region 1: I/O ports at 4000 [size=64]
Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
Flags: PMEClk- DSI+ D1+ D2+ AuxCurrent=0mA
PME(D0+,D1+,D2+,D3hot+,D3cold+)
Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=2 PME-

software configuration
modutils-2.4.25-1
initscripts-7.14-1
vanilla kernel 2.6.0
RH 9.0A

just a point: I load the e100 module AFTER i810_audio (to avoid sampling
frequency problem)

Regards,
Paolo
