Hello,
I've recently purchased a compaq notebook, and I'm working to get linux
running on it. I've got the notebook working with everything except the
network card, which is turns out to be a weird Conexant Lanfinity card.
I've been reading through the mailing list archivs and I see someone has
posted a couple of mesages in December 2000, and I was looking for some
updates as to what is the status for this chip.
I have built and tried to use the new tulip.c and the tulip-diag.c
programs along with the pci-scan.c, etc...from ftp.scyld.com. I compile
the pci-scan.c against my 2.4.0 kernel, and is worked fine. However,
under the test tree there isn't any pci-scan.h, and therefor I couldn't
compile the tulip.c from there. After I had insmod pci-scan.o, I could
load the tulip driver from the 2.4.0 kernel, I noticed that is was
written by other people, and actually find eth0. However, using the
tulip.c from ftp.scyld.com, and not from the test directory, the module
wouldn't load. When I used the tulip.o from the 2.4 kernel, it had the
wrong MAC address, it reported 00:4C:69:6E:75:79, where windows says it
is 00:50:8B:AA:38:6E. I have attached the oputput from tulip-diag using
all the options, as well as what dmesg returns when the moduloes are
loaded into the kernel, along with what lspci outputs. I'd really like
to get this working under linux without purchasing a PCMCIA card.
Thanks,
