Added to 2.2.18pre15 to be This sound exactly like my situation. I have met with total frustration in trying to compile a new module using the instructions on http://www.scyld.com/network/updates.htlm. It was only recently that i noriced the critique of the RH 7.0 distribution that appeared on that page. The instructions are excellent. i apparently do not have the requesite tools. My problems (or at least the ones i know about) are; 1. i cannot find the egcs (aka kgcc) compiler. Is this in an RPM package that i have to install. 2. i have no /usr/src/linux path. i assume i should install the kernel-src package shipped with my distribution. 3. can you tell me exactly where the tulip.c you diff''ed came from. these lines are not in my tulip.c under /user/src/redhar/netdrivers-2.0/ path. i assume if that version of tulip is shipped in my distribution i should be able to find those lines, add your changes and following the basic instructions for building and installing a new kernel module. i would appreciate any assistance you can render. bob The PCI ID will be present in the next kernelbuild if/when we release one. |
There's yet another tulip revision out in the wild. Shipped as Linksys/Network Everwhere Model NC100 version 2.1, lspci -v gives 00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0985 (rev 11) Subsystem: Bridgecom, Inc: Unknown device 0570 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 3 I/O ports at 1000 Memory at f4000400 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2 The current tulip driver seems to work fine once the PCI id is added, so if an errata kernel ends up needing to be released for whatever reason, it would be nice to have the pci id added so that the tulip module doesn't have to be recompiled for such a piddly thing ;) $ diff -u tulip.c~ tulip.c --- tulip.c~ Sun Oct 1 17:34:05 2000 +++ tulip.c Sun Oct 1 17:33:56 2000 @@ -343,6 +343,8 @@ 0x11AD, 0xc115, 0xffff, PCI_ADDR0_IO, 256, 32, tulip_probe1 }, { "ADMtek AN981 Comet", 0x1317, 0x0981, 0xffff, PCI_ADDR0_IO, 256, 32, tulip_probe1 }, + { "ADMtek AN985 Comet", + 0x1317, 0x0985, 0xffff, PCI_ADDR0_IO, 256, 32, tulip_probe1 }, { "Compex RL100-TX", 0x11F6, 0x9881, 0xffff, PCI_ADDR0_IO, 128, 32, tulip_probe1 }, { "Intel 21145 Tulip",
