Is anyone using sk98lin Gigabit Ethernet adapters under CentOS 4.x? The version of the driver that ships with CentOS 4.x kernels was too old to support the onboard NICs on some Intel server boards that we recently got, so we installed a newer driver using DKMS. However, we're having problems finding a stable driver...

...BOOT/i386/ filled with the drivers in the initrd.img file. Then I grabbed a copy of the vanilla 2.4.21-40, went to Intel's website to grab the driver files I needed (turns out that they were included in the vanilla source, hence a patch file of size 0 was generated), and continued to build the sk98lin driver for i386 (I tried both default settings processor type and i386). The first iteration through all I did was make menuconfig and turn on Marvell as a module, the second time I specified processor type as i386. I grabbed the sk98lin.o file and threw it in /tmp/2.4.21-40.ELBOOT/i386/, where a...

...th an onboard "Marvell 88E8001" was showing some packet overruns. # ifconfig -a eth0 | grep "RX p" RX packets:1629537 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:3694 frame:0 So I thought about using a driver from "elrepo" the lspci id's suggest to install the "kmod-sk98lin" driver. I yum installed the kernel module and on reboot found the server was still using the old "skge" driver. ethtool -i eth0 driver: skge version: 1.6 Looking at modprobe.conf shows # cat /etc/modprobe.conf | grep eth0 alias eth0 skge [1] Should I just change the "skge&...

Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? The kernel provide skge, sky2 and sk98lin modules all fail to load. I was able to download the latest version from the syskonnect.de site, and with some hacking/klduging of their install script managed to compile the module in there (a newer version of sk98lin, it seems) which recognised the card... but this isn't really sustainable...

Hello, I'm trying to install CentOS 5.2 on an HP 6730s notebook. All's going well except for one little item -- the networking. Never thought I'd have trouble with an Ethernet adapter, so I didn't even check before buying this machine; it was cheap. The adapter is a Marvell Yukon 88E8042 PCI-E Fast Ethernet controller. I can't find a Linux driver for it except one that

...eciate any info to some resources. For example a technical document covering this issue or similar. My setup is a kernel 2.4.31 with bridge-utils 1.0.4. The box have three network interfaces eth[0-2]. Bridged interfaces are eth[1-2] (router,dmz), eth0 is my intranet. I use DLINK network cards with sk98lin driver. Many thanks in advance. Best regards C. Moire

Hello all, I'm not able to install CentOS in a motherboard with a onboard 3Com gigabit nic (3c904/Syskonnect). Although there's a device driver for the Syskonnect (sk98lin) in the linux kernel, the installation program is asking for this interface module. I tried to create a device disk, but without success. Maybe I'm missing some information about the modules detection by the installation. How could I check the modules in the iso image ? or how could I insert...

...tel Corporation 82545EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 01) and host 2 has: 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8050 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 17) In order to get this controller work on host 2, I had to download and install a more recent version of the sk98lin driver. Host 2 runs CentOS 4. Host 1 runs CentOS 3 (with a stock e1000 driver). After I setup networking, ethtool reported for both hosts that the link runs at 100Mbps even though it says in both cases that the capability for 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full modes and exists and is being advertised....

My dd (sk98lin v7.09) supports 3c940 (Marvel/Syskonnect) which the stock v6.x drivers doesn't . Successfull tested on a Asus A-7N8X Deluxe with Marvell Gigabit Lan the dd is available at http://slackpkg.ath.cx/centos/disk/sk98lin/

Hello Hamish. I found your message just googling for Suse and sk98lin. Did you solve your problem? I had the same case and only way to restore was to change NIS driver speed settings from AUTO to 10Mb. And it was not related to OS as the same problem is in WXP ( I have dual boot, ASUS P4P800, integrated GB NIS ). Oleg.

...come up properly during PXE boot: r8169: eth0: link down ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready I can't use ethtool to disable autoneg because the nic driver is built into a bzImage. The root fs is currently being mounted via nfs during pxeboot at speed 10, half-duplex. In the past for sk98lin driver I could pass a kernel module parameter sk98lin.ConType=100FD on the kernel boot line. I looked at the r8169.c and tried to hard code the default to autoneg off but that didn't work. --- linux-2.6.18-274.12.1.el5.i686/drivers/net/r8169.c +++ disable-autoneg/drivers/net/r8169.c @@ -2814,...

Hi All, I have a marvel chipset for my wired laptop connection. It uses the kmod-sk98lin-10.93.3.3-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm driver at elrepo. I would like to use this driver to activate the wired connection to kickstart my laptop as I have pxe booting set upon my home network. Could anyone please enlighten me as to how to get the drivers/firmware from this package loaded on my laqpt...

Me again. The ASUS P5N32-SLI motherboard in my new machine has dual NICs but CentOS has only detected one of them. I've tried rebooting with the network plugged in only to the second one, but kudzu still doesn't find it. Any suggestions?

...lease forgive the length of my message. Also, great work! I'm trying to get Centos-3 running on an ASUS SK8V Opteron motherboard in a way that is useful for me. I've had some success, but now I'm stuck on a problem with the SATA driver. Okay, so I got it up on the network by replacing sk98lin with the one from 2.4.26. While I'm pretty confident that's not a supported thing to do, the machine is pretty useless to me off the network. I know I could throw a supported adapter in it, but it works as is. By the way, my intention is to get a native amd64 distribution of Linux running...

I take it you are running RedHat 8 (or 9) since this is the most up-to-date kernel. Did you install the kernel-sources and kernel-util rpms as well? You'll need these in order to compile and install zaptel. -sb -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com]On Behalf Of T.

Can this MB be used with Centos 4 (or 5)? For reference: http://www.logicsupply.com/products/ms_9832 I don't think we can use this new MB since the Realtek 8111C does not seem to be supported (well) http://forums.tweaktown.com/f69/8111c-nic-revision-ep45-27089/ -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -

...type of motherboard is Intel Desktop Board D925XEBC2 "BlackCanyon". The gigabit ethernet controller is Marvell Yukon based (Syskonnekt) and stock kernel has problems using it. It doesn't complain, lspci "sees" it (it's not a big thing at all) but nothing under /proc/net/sk98lin/ (there should be an eth0 at least). I upgraded the stcok kernel to the newer one, 2.6.9-11 EL kernel but it doesn't work too. I tried to compile it as a module and to compile the driver into the kernel. After I downloaded the tar.gz and newest driver from marvell.com and compiled it against th...

...: 1st crash the file was 380Mb, second crash 74k. I checked log.smbd and there do not seem to be any error messages (just connect and close messages). Is it possible that this is not actually a samba problem? (possibly a network driver problem - it is an Asustek 3c940 1000Base? - using module sk98lin) Thanks,

As far as I work out the version of the Dom0 linux kernel has to be 2.6.18. This is causing me a lot of problem, because the driver support in 2.6.18 is slowly falling behind, and I finding that more modern hardware isn''t supported by the 2.6.18 drivers. Is it possible to use a more recent version of the kernel for Dom0, or am I stuck with 2.6.18? Is there another way I can use more

Hello, I''m trying to setup Xen on a machine with 2 physical network devices using linux bonding without success. I haven''t received any answer on my question on xen-users, the only discussion on this seems to be at http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2005-10/msg01174.html Could someone shed some light on state/ plans regarding Xen and bonding?
