Geert,
PT> D-LINK DFE-530TX (apparently it should work with de4x5) We
CMC> have one of these (the ``+'' model, which supposedly does
CMC> 10/100), and it works great with the rtl8139 driver on our
CMC> PC (acting as a gateway). They're also dirt cheap
CMC> (~CN$25, with tax). But we've never tried it on one of
CMC> our PowerPC machines.
GU> Both wrong :-) The DFE-530TX is not based on the DEC Tulip
GU> or the RTL8139 chipset, but on the VIA VT86C100A [Rhine
GU> 10/100] (cfr. pci.ids).
Perhaps that's true of the DFE-530TX. The DFE-530TX+, which we
have, is based on the RealTek chipset. From /proc/pci on the
relevant machine:
Bus 0, device 7, function 0:
Ethernet controller: Realtek 8139 (rev 16).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 10. Master
Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=32.Max Lat=64.
I/O at 0xe800 [0xe801].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xfedffe00 [0xfedffe00].
