Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone else has had any luck with this driver/Ethernet
controller combo on 10baseT/UTP media.
My experiences are as follows:
-stable: the stock driver doesn't work, but the driver listed at
www.3am-software.com does work _if_ I specify the media manually.
-current: the stock driver doesn't complain about anything but doesn't work.
ifconfig says:
de0: flags=8c43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,OACTIVE,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 131.155.146.107 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 131.155.146.255
ether 00:80:5a:15:e6:9b
media: 10baseT/UTP status: active
supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10base2/BNC 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP
(OACTIVE looks suspicious to me here.)
Using this driver I can only ping the local interface, nothing
else.
The 3am-software driver gives all kinds of (non-trivial to fix)
compilation errors on -current and hence I am unable to build a
kernel containing it.
Thanks for any insights any of you may have to offer!
Cheers,
