Hi, I really need help on getting two network cards to work. I'm able to work with them on Windows NT and on Linux(only if I had, initially, started first with NT :-(( ).
What happens: [Machine1] [Machine2] 1. Start this machine 2. Start this machine Both network cards have *10Mbit LED on*. This happen(I think) because they're configured for 10MBit(using an MSDOS application which came with those cards.) There is no LED blinking (on both). 3. Ping to machine2 4. LED(CT) start blinking 5. There's no reply from machine2 6. ifconfig shows TX packets being increased 7. Appears message on screen (every packet received): eth0: transmit timeout, status 0d 0000 media 08. eth0: Tx queue start entry 5 dirty entry 1. 8. LED(CT) blink every time it shows 7. 9. ifconfig shows: RX packets -> being increased TX errors -> being increased TX carriers -> being increased 10. There was 100% packet lost. :-( What should I do ? Could someone help me? Thanks. Best regards, Nuno Carvalho P.S. I'm using kernel 2.2.10
