I am using centos 5 x86_64 AMD64 X2 4200+. I am current on yum update. My machine has two ethernet cards. e1000 (eth0) and forcedeth (eth1) [root at fsdsigns2 ~]# more /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 e1000 alias eth1 forcedeth sometimes on boot the forcedeth driver thinks it is eth0: [root at fsdsigns2 ~]# dmesg | grep eth forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.60. forcedeth: using HIGHDMA eth0: forc...

Is there a method to control module load order? I want to ensure that the e1000 module loads before the forcedeth driver. Jerry

Hi all, Same system as my previous mail - Asus P5N32-E SLI motherboards, CentOS 4 x86_64. The kernel-supplied forcedeth driver works in kernel-smp-2.6.9-55.0.9.EL (both with and without acpi=off), but after upgrading to kernel-smp-2.6.9-67.0.4.EL, networking does not start. After trying dhcp, ifconfig reports 17 dropped TX packets (all other counters are empty). Ethtool reports the same settings for working and...

I installed 2.6.20.7 copied /boot/config{something} to .config make oldconfig make oldconfig make menuconfig - turned on drivers -> Sata -> nvidia make bzImage make modules make modules_install make install rebooted. Seems like the issue I had with forcedeth (nvidia) bad MAC address is gone. However, the iptables gives errors. Where in the menu tree do I enable what iptables needs??? I have looked around in there and did not see it. Thanks, (I know I'm not compatible now... :) Jerry

...ave a machine with 2 network cards. ifcfg-eth1 keeps changing to DHCP. All my static setup is gone. Why is it doing this? How can I stop it? I run "netconfig -d eth1" and re-setup my static information. I reboot and now I am back to DHCP. I have a gigabyte motherboard, nvidia chipset. forcedeth driver. eth0 is e1000. Jerry

I have not see this before... Installing centos 5 on m2n-mx motherboard the onboard forcedeth driver loads and says invalid mac address "97:42:40:F3:18:00" Anyone else ever seen this before? Is it fixable? I went to support.asus.com and searched for "invalid mac address" they say sorry no data. Jerry

Xen Community: As many of you are aware, the Xen 4.0 hypervisor is due to ship tomorrow (shhhh, don''t tell anyone) and I wanted to get submissions underway for Xen 4.1 features.

centos 5 had modprobe.conf entries for eth0 and if present eth1. something like: alias eth0 forcedeth alias eth1 e1000e For the new centos 6 (I have the rhel 6 client installed on my laptop) the modprobe.conf file is gone. Which is fine. I understand files can be created in /etc/modprobe.d and server the same purpose. My question is I dont see (doing a grep) any eth0 alias's in the files in...

I just installed CentOS 6.3 on a Tyan motherboard and the NIC stopped talking after about 2 days of operation. It's connected to a Cisco 2950 switch. /var/log/messages has this in it: nv_stop_tx: TransmitterStatus remained busy I simply did an "ifdown eth0" and "ifup eth0" to bring it back to life again. I think I have this issue:

...as a Realtek 8111B. I've downloaded what I believe to be the latest Realtek drivers and if I do an lsmod I can see the r8168 module present. I've tried adding the line alias eth0 r8168 to my /etc/modprobe.conf file but it hasn't gotten me anywhere, I've also tried with Nvidia's forcedeth module to no avail. Does anyone have some ideas of what I could try next? Do I need a newer version of the forcedeth driver? Is this chipset not going to work with Centos 5.1? Is it a Xen related issue? lspci shows "Ethernet controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 07dc (rev a2)" A...

I am attempting to put 3 network cards in one box, running centos 64 5.4 network cards are forcedeth (motherboard), e1000e and r8169. I have ifcfg-eth0, ifcfg-eth1 and ifcfg-eth2 all configured up. All looks fine. eth0 is my internal network (forcedeth) eth1 is Cable modem eth2 is T1 data Once I connect the three networks and try to ping something all I can ping is internal network machines. C...

I download the RHEL 6b2 and noticed the modprobe.conf was no longer present. I used modprobe.conf to place "options" for ethernet drivers like which order to install the drivers. e1000e before forcedeth - things like that. Anyway - seems like that file is no longer present. what is the "future" way to handle driver options? Thanks Jerry

Hi all, Is there any way to get a CentOS 7 ISO with the centosplus kernel? I have some very old hardware I'd like to keep going if easy, but it has old NVidia network cards that need the forcedeth driver. Apparently this driver is now in the centosplus kernel, but if I use the default ISO I won't be able to get on the network to get the centosplus kernel. (Of course I can get the kernel to the machine in other ways, but over the network is by far the most convenient.) See https://bugs....

Has anyone installed Linux (CentOS or other) on a Tyan K8SE (S2892) motherboard? I'd really like to hear your experiences -- with this board or Nvidia's nForce Pro chipset in general. I'm looking to build a new server using this board but would like to find some other experiences first. I've googled myself blue but haven't found any reviews or postings regarding this
