Hello!
I've got notebook HP OmniBook 5700CTX (P166MMX, 128MB RAM etc.). My problem
is with PCMCIA (CardBus actually) 3Com Corporation 3CCFE575CT CardBus. I'm
trying to put it working on Knoppix 3.2 (kernel 2.4.20-xfs), knoppix 3.4
(kernel 2.4.20 and also on kernel 2.6.6), Slackware 10.0 (kernel 2.4.24 (if
I remember) bare.i) - all of them are standard kernels (none of them were
compilated by me). Debian 3.0 - the same problems (now I'm trying to set up
this network card on knoppix and slackware).
When I want to ping any computer in the local network I've got Host
Unreachable or very very long times (about thousands ms) with lost packages
about 30-100%. There are some duplicates also (DUP!).
My local network (for tests) 192.168.0.x, computers are 101 and 110,
notebook is set to 112.
Network card on 101 is RTL-1839. 110's computer uses Intel EtherExpress
Pro - but this computer I've used once (I thought that there may be problems
with RTL-1839, I've received very long a hardware address of that card, but
it's "normal" here)
Card (PCMCIA/CardBus) is ok. It works under Win98SE and the pings are
lasting about 1ms (to both 101 and 110 computers), connection to the
Internet works as well. The problem looks like it is configuration problem
under Linux.
The notebook must be booted with ide=nodma parameter (without this - Linux
won't start)
I've tried noapic parameter, but it doesn't works also :(.
Once I set up hardware addresses of other computers in the network to static
using arp -s 192.168.0.y hw:ad:dr:es:se:s.. Than I do not have Destination
Host Unreachable errors - it tries to ping from the very begining. Than I
noticed that getting hardware address is very very long.
After some time pinging other computers, it stops either - 100% lost
packages.

Does anybody has similar problems with 3ccfe575ct?
Could these problems be connected with Texas Instruments PCI1131 (rev 01) ?
any ideas what shall I do??
what I forgot??
what to try??
thanks with advance
