Dear All,
I have an intel gigabit ethernet card. When I install it on windows
with the coming windows drivers, I can click on network connections
select the card and change stuff like jumbo frames, "Receive
descriptors" and "Interupt Moderate Rate". Now I have also a linux
machine with debian 4.0 and kernal 2.6. When I plug in the card it
seems that there are debian drivers already that comes along with
debian installation. I can then set it to jumbo frames by setting the
mtu value. But I have no clue how I should set the "receive
descriptors" and "Interupt Moderate Rate" value in linux.
Have you checked what options the ethtool(8) command gives you? Compare
the available options with the docs on the intel site.
