Marvell Gigabit not working (SuSE 9.3 ok)
Hi,
I'm trying to get a Marvell onboard Gigabit chip (Intel mainboard D925XECV2)
working on a freshly installed sarge system (Intel P4)
# lspci -v
...
0000:04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd.: Unknown
device 4361 (rev 17)
Subsystem: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 3078
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 3
Memory at ff720000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
I/O ports at b800 [size=256]
Expansion ROM at ff700000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2
Capabilities: [50] Vital Product Data
Capabilities: [5c] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+ Queue=0/1 Enable-
Capabilities: [e0] #10 [0011]
Since it works with SuSE 9.3 (kernel 2.6.11.4) , I upgraded to the most
recent kernel (2.6.12-rc6), without success. I can't figure out what's
different within the SuSE setup.
As far as I can see, it should work with the sk98lin module:
# lsmod
Module Size Used by
ipv6 272416 10
af_packet 30984 0
sk98lin 170976 0
Nethertheless there is no eth0 device:
# ifconfig eth0 up
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
# cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
I tried to add an eth0 alias:
# cat /etc/modules.conf
...
alias eth0 sk98lin
but the sk98lin still does not feel responsible for the Marvell chip.
/proc/net/sk98lin ist empty.
With SuSE I get:
# cat /proc/net/sk98lin/eth0
Detailed statistic for device eth0
=======================================
Board statistics
Card name Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T
Adapter
Vendor/Device ID 11ab/4361
Card type (Bit) 64
Active Port A

Any hint what I might have missed? (Yes, I've configured
PCI Express support within the kernel)
Thanks, Thomas
