Hi, I have a Sun Netra X1 with kernel 2.4.31-sparc and Davicom DM9102/DM9102A ethernet card built in. The tulip driver is compiled into the kernel and gets the two interfaces. I can use them, but i get a lot of errors in 100baseTX-FD mode:

Code:
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:03:BA:0F:D6:4D 
          inet addr:192.168.1.250  Bcast:192.255.255.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:625190 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:33 errors:7590 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:7590
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:48071994 (45.8 Mb)  TX bytes:1746 (1.7 Kb)
          Interrupt:192


Please, can anybody help me?

bye

hi,

I solved the problem. I had to compile the tulip driver is module and force the driver to 100baseTx-FD mode.

Code:
add to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.4

tulip

add to /etc/modules.conf

alias eth0 tulip on
alias eth0 tulip on

options tulip options=14,14


bye
