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 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...

Hi, Hopefully this won''t be too off-topic (I''ve seen both bonding & vlan mentioned on the list, but not really together). I''ve tried to get bonding (2 x 100Mb EEPro, but will want to try on 1000BaseT) and vlans to work together, but without luck. I can get them working fine (seemingly at least - I didn''t tried bursting on the bonded port) individually.

Hi, I am currently working with Memdisk. I setup a floppy disk that boots DOS and performs a VLM login into a NetWare Server.

...it. I''m currently running FC3 and Xen2.0.7. I did the usual ''make install'' and I can boot into Xen dom0. However, my network card is not working. The driver is found in the linux-2.6.11.12-xen0 tree but not selected. I rebuilt the kernel by compiling the Marvel Yukon/SysKonnect SK98xx driver both in the kernel and as a module but to no avail. So the error message I have is "Device eth0 has different MAC address than expected, ignoring." If I remove the MAC address completely either using the GUI or under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and /etc/sy...

Greetings ... I hate to ask these questions, but I dought I will get a straight answer from an Salesmen ... I am looking at putting gigabit in as a back bone for a few Linux servers, but I have used an Accton Gigabit ethernet card with RedHat 8.0/9 and found it a little unstable ... do and RedHat users have a suggestion on a good, but not expensive Gigabit card, basicly for a Samba

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 'cos new kernels will cause problems. Any ideas? -- rgds Stephen

He Everyone, We found out that till version 3.02 the Yukon nic is supported after it gives code errors, i'm working a lot with ehtherboot via drbl / clonezilla, and together with Steven Shiau we ask you guys if you can arrange that the Yukon can be supported again. Our thanx in advance. Dave & Steven

Hi there! I am working a lot with VoIP in my company, so I thought to use linux bridge functionality together with tc to emulate delay, jitter, packet loss, duplication, reordering etc. for testing purposes in our lab against our VoIP products. I just recognized, that a basic bridge just with it''s minumum configuration of 2 network interfaces creates latency of approx. 5ms on very low

Hello List, some time ago i already asked this, in the meanwhile i did not found a solution nor i have any idea why this happens.

Hi, I created a 4 Meg Byte primanry DOS patition onto a hard disk. This partition was formatted with format /s. The hard drive was able to boot DOS. After that I connected the drive to a Linux machine and created and image with the command dd if=/dev/had1 of=hard.img When I send this image to my PXE client I see on the screen: MEMLINUX: Image seems to have fractional end cylinder MEMLINUX:

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 to use: the first version that we tried (7.09) gave a kernel panic when I ran

Hi all, please excuse my posting what is probably an FAQ, but getting the mail archives is excruciatingly slow (~70 bytes/sec). I have an XP professional box attached to a Samba server. It works ok-ish (I can actually access everything) but everything is painfully slow. Attaching a network drive takes at least 10 seconds, sometimes longer. Word takes AGES to load (> 15 seconds before anything

Hi, I am trying to optimize my gigabit network. I have two Intel 1000 MT Gigabit Server Adapters, which support Jumbo Frames -- as well as a Switch that supports Jumbo Frames. However, I am observing some strange behavior in my file transfers from Windows XP to Linux and I am wondering if it has anything to do with the way the Samba variables are set on my Linux box?
