Hi all: Sorry for the cross post, I have a linux running in Sa1110 assabet with socket comm. LP-CF ethernetcard. I am using kernel 2.4.0-test1. I played with it for a week until now my eth0 device are up, and everything seems fine, no error message when boot up. thanks for Nico and Jeff for their big help. I found some weird problems regarding the network. 1) when I ping localhost, I can send and get the reply, however I got the warning message when each packet is received "WARING: received unknown ICMP packet" 2) I can logon to other machines through telnet, no problem, however, I can only logon to SA1110 by telnet at the first time, after that the telnet window display "Escape character is ^]" and stucked. it seems the connection is established but the data transmission has some problems. any idea? thank you !
