tulip on alpha ds10l 100MbpsFD problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I'm trying to get this DS 10L going with Linux, and I hit the ceiling with the onboard ethernet. Whenever the device is in 10Mbps, and switch is in 10 Mbps, everything works ok (half-duplex mode). Whenever I switch to 100Mbps, I'm not able to receive packets. At all. Sending goes ok, i.e. I see DHCP requests on another server, but nothing reaches the box when data is sent to it.

Similar behaviour with both de4x5 and tulip drivers.

Note, that it thinks that the device is in 10mbps full duplex mode, however when i force 10mbps on the switch, it will report 10mbps half- duplex, and that's the only configuration it works properly in.

SRM ewa0_mode is set to FastFD. It doesn't work with Auto-Negotiate either.

Any ideas would be very welcome. I'd be very happy to get this baby going in 100Mbps mode. As a sidenote, alphaserver800 which is next to it, works in 100MbpsFD perfectly.

Vladimir
