|
I have a few "Compaq Netelligent 10/100 TX PCI UTP" ethernet cards that I am using in a few boxes (utilizing the tlan kernel driver). In two of the boxes (both HP Kayak XU's- Dual P3 systems) I have no troubles whatsoever. It is in the third, an Asus Terminator C3 that I just cannot get it to work. I have tried swapping known functional cards into said box, but with no changes, so I know it is not a problem with the ethernet cards.

For awhile I thought that it was an IRQ conflict, but /proc/interrupts seems to say otherwise (if I am interpreting it correctly): | Code: | CPU0
0: 174030 XT-PIC-XT timer
1: 5741 XT-PIC-XT i8042
2: 0 XT-PIC-XT cascade

8: 2 XT-PIC-XT rtc
9: 0 XT-PIC-XT acpi
10: 138 XT-PIC-XT TLAN
11: 9578 XT-PIC-XT eth2
14: 15606 XT-PIC-XT ide0

Another thing of note: when the interface's IP is set via DHCP, it seems to lock the other built-in ethernet interface (via-rhine) so that no communication can happen at all over ethernet. If I set a static IP for it though, that doesn't happen.
I have tried numerous kernel adjustments, but to no avail (using gentoo-hardened BTW, without any grsec or Pax options enabled).
Please help! |
