Roger Luethi posted a few patches back in May which fixed the problem and a new patch just a few days ago against 2.4.19-rc1(and against 2.4.19-rc2 as well I'd say as the via-rhine driver hasn't changed between them). I'll forward that mail on to you. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Wenninger [mailto:kernel@jowenn.at] Sent: 17 July 2002 09:35 To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: Problem with Via Rhine- Kernel 2.4.18 Hi I'm new to the linux kernel, so please be patient. I have a P4 notebook with a via chipset and a mobile P4. In Windows XP my built in network device works without problems. In linux the device hangs a after some time of >90kB/s datatransfers. I have to completely reset my notebook to get it working again I'm not sure if it is a hardware or a kernel problem. How can I debug this to find out if it is a kernel bug and where it is ? I have to use pci=biosirq, otherwise the kernel warns me, that it can't change the interupts for my devcies. At bootup the device identifies itself as via-rhine.c:v1.10-LK1.1.13 Nov-17-2001 Written by Donald Becker http://www.scyld.com/network/via-rhine.html eth0: VIA VT6102 Rhine-II at 0xd000, 00:40:45:07:ba:06, IRQ 11. eth0: MII PHY found at address 1, status 0x786d advertising 05e1 Link 0021. When it stops working I get a lot of messages like: kernel eth0: Transmit timed out, status 0000, PHY status 786d, resetting... kernel eth0: Reset did not complete in 10ms. Another message I quite often get is: mtrr: no more MTRRs available I'm thankfull for any help Kind regards Joseph Wenninger - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
