If somebody could help me how to compile device driver D-Link DFE-528TX ethernet card.
When I try to compile I take a lot of errors.
I do the following:
I follow the user instructions
I enter the following command:
"gcc -DMODULE -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dfe528.c"
I take this output:
Code:
gcc -DMODULE -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dfe528.c

Knows somebody to tell me what should be the problem.
Do not worry. You don't need the driver you get inside the CD. That board is supported by the linux kernel module 8139too included in a standart kernel distribution (2.4.x i think)
Do not worry. You don't need the driver you get inside the CD. That board is supported by the linux kernel module 8139too included in a standart kernel distribution (2.4.x i think)
Yes Thank You.
But I have some problem with my device driver. I know what about You are talking to me.
When I turn my cable modem into 'stand by' mode my machine, application loadings are slow down. When I turn it on I get it all right.
My cable modem is connected to my ethernet adapter and it deos ARP protocol non-stop? I checked this using 'ethereal' program so it is how I know that.
Please tell me need I maybe express my '8139too' configuration, parameters there might be wrong set? Would it be good idea to check them?. I notify that for I am new to networkings.
Parameter names I need to express related to the '8139too' module are:
multicast_filter_limit
max_interrupt_work
media
full_duplex
debug
Please if You or somebody else could tell me what are the values I exactly need to enter to establish connection properly.
