Hi,
I have some problems with forcedeth driver on ASUS A8N Premium SLI, and
maybe you can help me.
The card is:
00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. K8N4-E Mainboard

All settings is the same, but with 2.6.15 kernel or 2.6.16-rc1 I always
get this errors when I try to ping the other side..

I have tried few versions of forcedeth driver from older 0.41, 0.48 to
0.49.
I have found some similar problems on lkml (about irq, TSO, etc.).
Maybe problem isn't in forcedeth itself, but suggested kernel params in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/21/73
change nothing :(.
My motherboard is ASUS A8N Premium with nforce4 sli
There is dual gbit interface
one is (skge driver)
05:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 13)
and second is (forcedeth driver)
00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)
I'm using 802.1d Ethernet Bridging between this 2. Marvell is used for my internet connection and forcedeth is used for connecting my second PC.
But without bridge it's the same error.
my .config is
#
# PHY device support
#
CONFIG_PHYLIB=m
#
# MII PHY device drivers
#
CONFIG_MARVELL_PHY=m
# CONFIG_DAVICOM_PHY is not set
# CONFIG_QSEMI_PHY is not set
# CONFIG_LXT_PHY is not set
# CONFIG_CICADA_PHY is not set
#
# Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)
#
CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y
CONFIG_MII=y
# CONFIG_HAPPYMEAL is not set
# CONFIG_SUNGEM is not set
# CONFIG_CASSINI is not set
CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_3COM=y
CONFIG_VORTEX=m
# CONFIG_TYPHOON is not set
CONFIG_NET_PCI=y
CONFIG_FORCEDETH=m
CONFIG_SKGE=m
CONFIG_SK98LIN=m
In 2.6.14 I have had option
CONFIG_PHYCONTROL=y
which is missing in 2.6.15 and 2.6.16-rc2
maybe this is the problem..
If you have any idea..
Best regards

You know what the problem with Windows is?
You can't compile it from source, and that makes it sooo boooring...
