Problem with PCI Intel EtherExpress Pro (i82865)
I would appreciate it if someone that is on the kernel list could
forward this. please send all replies to my address as well as the list.
I cannot get any kernel to utilize my Intel EtherExpress Pro card. it is
a PCI 10/100 card, and i am using the 2.2.x kernels in Debian GNU/Linux
2.1. When the eepro100.o kernel module is loaded (via modprobe) i get
"init_module: Device or resource busy". /proc/pci shows the card as
detected, here's the relevant part of /proc/pci:
Bus 0, device 14, function 0:
Ethernet controller: Intel 82865 (rev 3).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 11. Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=32.Max Lat=64.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xffafefc0 [0xffafefc0].
I/O at 0x7f00 [0x7f01].
Non-prefetchable 20 bit memory at 0xde000 [0xde002].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xff900000 [0xff900000].
As you can see, /proc/pci reports this card as being based on the Intel
82865 chip. From the /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/eepro100.c file, i see
that this module is for the
82557 and 82558 cards. Apparently this doesn't work with my chipset.
Does anyone know if there is a different driver that i should be using?
Does anyone have a card based on this chip working? how?
