See the revision -history in the tulip.c file for information on changes. This version -of the driver incorporates changes from Bob Edwards and Paul Mackerras -who cantributed changes to support the TRENDnet TE100-PCIA NIC which -uses a genuine Intel 21143-PD chipset. There are also various code -cleanups to make time-based activities more reliable. - -Of course you have to have all the usual Etherboot environment -(bootp/dhcp/NFS) set up, and you need a Linux kernel with v0.91g -(7.16.99) or later of the tulip.c driver compiled in to support some -MX98715 based cards. That file is available at: - - http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/test/tulip.c - -NOTES - -I've tested this driver with a SOHOware Fast 10/100 Model SDA110A, -a Linksys LNE100TX v2.0, and a Netgear FA310TX card, and it worked at -both 10 and 100 mbits. Other cards based on the tulip family may work as -well. - -These cards are about 20$US, are supported by Linux and now Etherboot, -and being PCI, they auto-configure IRQ and IOADDR and auto-negotiate -10/100 half/full duplex. It seems like a pretty good value compared to -some of the pricier cards, and can lower the cost of building/adapting -thin client workstations substantially while giving a considerable -performance increase. - -On some PCI tulip clone chipsets (MX987x5, LC82C115, LC82C168) this driver -lets the card choose the fastest speed it can negotiate with the peer -device. On other cards, it chooses 10mbit half-duplex. - -I burned an AM27C256 (32KByte) EPROM with mx987x5.lzrom and it worked. -According to the data sheet the MX98715A supports up to 64K (27C512) -EPROMs, - -I've liberally commented the code and header files in the hope that it -will help the next person who hacks the code or needs to support some -tulip clone card, or wishes to add functionality. - -Anyway, please test this if you can on your tulip based card, and let -me (mdc@etherboot.org) and the Etherboot-Discuss list -(etherboot-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net) know how things go. I also -would appreciate code review by people who program. I'm a strong -believer in "another set of eyes". - -Regards, - -Marty Connor -mdc@etherboot.org -http://www.etherboot.org/ |
