Hi all! I have written some time ago about LG LPNCII 10/100 Cardbus card on Realtek 8139 chip based (title: LG LPNCII PCMCIA (Rtl-8139)- cannot even ping; date: August 6, 2003 20:33 - I did not change the settings apart these mentioned below ("noapic" does not work either) ). I have tried several tricks and none of them works :^/. I have checked the Internet for help once more and find an idea, but I do not know how to do this - I think I need to do such a "thing": Auto-negotiation disabled, with Speed fixed at 10 mbps, full-duplex. or Auto-negotiation disabled, with Speed fixed at 10 mbps, half-duplex.
Does anybody know how to do this? I've got 2.4.20 kernel, I use yenta_socket and 8139too module (I also compiled my 819too_cb but nothing better with this...), laptop: HP OmniBook 5700CTX (P166MMX), the other network card is Intel EtherExpress Pro ISA (10Mbps I use eepro module), cables and cards are fine, because everything works under windoze... I tried to "insmod mii" and "insmod 8139too[_cb] media=0x0001|0x0100|etc." but all I've got is: (from dmesg) for example: 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.26 eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xc8a41000, 00:40:f4:5d:b5:fb, IRQ 10 eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139C' Forcing 10Mbps half|full-duplex operation. Am I doing something wrong? Is "media" parameter ok and the values? But when I try to ping the other computer (of course I did the ifconfig etc. - I think it's all right) - dmesg adds after "Forcing 10Mbps [...]" eth0: Setting full-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000. NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out eth0: Tx queue start entry 4 dirty entry 0 eth0: Tx descriptor 0 is 00002000. (queue head) eth0: Tx descriptor 1 is 00002000. eth0: Tx descriptor 2 is 00002000. eth0: Tx descriptor 3 is 00002000. eth0: Setting full-duplex based on auto-negotiated partner ability 0000. Anyone knows what to do? Any tips? ideas? feel free to wright. thanks in advance - rosa -- status: a little bit sleepy... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
