[vortex] 3c59x - Support for 3COM 3C920B-EMB-WNM Integrated Fast Ethernet Contoller

[Lasse Krutschinna]

Hello,

I am using the onboard NIC "3C920B-EMB-WNM Integrated Fast Ethernet Contoller" (that's the name Windows XP gives it).
I had Problems getting it running under Linux (currently SUSE 9.1).
After some time looking for a solution on the Internet I found the info that my card is generally supported by your driver; it just needs a little patch.

I had to change 2 lines in 3c59x.c and after I recompiled the kernel I was able to use the card;

572:
old: 	 PCI_USES_IO|PCI_USES_MASTER, IS_TORNADO|HAS_NWAY|HAS_HWCKSM, 128, },
new: 	 PCI_USES_IO|PCI_USES_MASTER, IS_TORNADO|HAS_MII|HAS_HWCKSM, 128, },

622:
old: 	{ 0x10B7, 0x9210, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, CH_920B_EMB_WNM },
new: 	{ 0x10B7, 0x9202, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, CH_920B_EMB_WNM },

I attached my version of 3c59x.c to this email.


Could you please release an updated driver with support for this NIC?


Thanks,

Lasse Krutschinna
