Using the 2.2.16 for i386 the ftp (and http too, Apache in other machine, wget in the K7) test went up to 180 KB/s (+/-10). The ping -f works perfectly (aka a few losses in test of 100K or 1M ping packets), and a NFS test gave me 820 KB/s (more normal, IMO). From watching the hub leds, I saw that ping had no collisions (or flashed so quickly that I could no view the LED). NFS had some, but few, and some small stops (normal? obviously it is the reason I get 820 KB/s instead of 1.1MB/s, I use NFS rarelly, so I do not know if that is normal with machines that work). But the ftp and http still had too many collisions and are extrangely slow. BTW, I have tested with 3c59x driver (bad but works, results above) and 3c90x (crappy, worse than above results or does not work at all, sends some data and then stops) drivers that comes in latest kernels. I will keep on investigating. Any advices about where or what to look are appreciated. GSR It seems it was about hardware config and bad cabling. I have not tested again the official 3c90x driver, but with the 3c59x works now. Sorry to bug you. I will check with the official 3com 3c90x module to see if this one is buggy... now that I have started to play with it. GSR |
