I'm having problems getting starfire nics to work correctly. Useing GENERIC
i can't seem to force the nic to work without it dropping off the network.
When i does drop off the network it goes up and down every 2-3 seconds. I
have tried 2 different switchs (cisco and xylan) with both switchs set to
full-duplex on all ports, and nic set to 100 full. If i set the nics to
auto they do detect the correct media speed and duplex, but i get lots of
out errors (netstat -in). The host i'm ftping from and to are on the same
switch and same ip segment. Just to see if it would help i made a custom
kernel, and removed and nics not being used, usb*, and a few isa devices.
After that i was able to keep the card on the network with it forced to
full duplex, but i still get out put errors (also crc's).
I have 2 machines that do this with starfire nics. 1 clone P2-400, 1 compaq
1400r(i think that right) dual 500.
I will attach a dmesg to this email and a kernel config.
