Hello,
It is my first post to this mailing list, but I already read some archives
on Greg Siekas web site.
In short (the details will be explained below), I have Media recognition
problems with a Cogent EM110 TX PCI network card. The network card do not
want to be put in a 10baseT media.
What I have :
-----------
A COGENT EM110 TX PCI Card with a Digital 21140-AB chip.
Linux 2.0.36 on a Debian 2.1
I use the latest tulip driver (v0.90Z) as a module
A brain (fully fonctionnal I guess)
What's happening :
----------------
At the boot (complete dmesg at the end of the mail) I have
---8<------CUT_HERE-----8<-------
eth0: Digital DS21140 Tulip rev 18 at 0xfc80, 00:00:92:96:13:61, IRQ 11.
eth0: Old format EEPROM on 'Cogent EM100' board. Using substitute media
control info.
eth0: EEPROM default media type Autosense.
eth0: Index #0 - Media 100baseFx (#7) described by a 21140 non-MII (0)
block.
eth0: Index #1 - Media 100baseFx-FD (#8) described by a 21140 non-MII (0)
block.
eth0: Index #2 - Media 100baseTx (#3) described by a 21140 non-MII (0)
block.
---8<------CUT_HERE-----8<-------
What I did :
----------
At first, I did a simple "ifconfig eth0 media 10baseT". The system
answered me : "SIOCSIFMAP: Operation not supported".
I downloaded the latest tulip driver, and looked for the documentation
concerning the media types. I edited the driver, putting in the option 12
instead of 0, not working. I tried 9, neither. Each time I modified the
source code, I compiled it using the command described at the end of
tulip.c, then I copiede the tulip.o in the module directory
(/lib/modules/2.0.36/net), then a simple depmod -a, an then reboot.
I need to precise that I also try to edit the conf.module file in
/etc. Just as the doc says (alias eth0 tulip, options ...etc). I tried a
lot of combinaisons (media specification in the source code but not in the
conf.module, the opposite, both, etc..) And nothing worked.
I downloaded the tulip-diag.c file. Compilation ok. The output is locateed
at the very end of this message. I had this output using :
./tulip-diag -p 0xfc80 -f -e -v -v -v -a -e -e -m
I needed to specify the port, because the program itself didn't find the
card at first. You will have an output of the /proc/pci in the references.
What should I do now :
--------------------
I am asking you.
Thank you for reading all this, and thank you for advance for the solution
you will give me.
Haim.
