FW: FW: D-Link DFE-530TX+ via-rhine.o module
I don't have a /proc/pci folder. This is a pretty bare machine that I built
just to use as a linux test box, so all I have in there is an AGP video card
and this PCI D-Link nic card. I haven't used the card under windows, so I
can't steal any IRQ info from there.
When I run lsmod, it lists:
nls_cp437 3880 1 (autoclean)
serial 19640 0 (autoclean)
unix 11336 35 (autoclean)
I haven't had to do this much tweaking since I installed Windows 3.1... I'm
having flashbacks.
Where can I read up on diagnosing IO and IRQ parameter problems? (assuming
that is what the problem is)?

I think that browsing /proc/pci can give some information, but I
haven't tried that yet. Have you used the card in windows? What does
it report as the IRQ and IO addresses?

I would expect the link light to be on if you have the card plugged
into the service (or cable modem) because a link exists. If you
unplug the card from the network the link light will go off. This is
hardware independent of the software drivers. It is a convenient way
to get information about which part of the card isn't working. My
card (LinkSys) has link, 100, duplex, and tx lights to indicate if a
link (network) exists, the network is 100 Mbps, the network is full
duplex, the card is transfering data right not.
