Greetings: After successfully getting my Linksys Etherfast 10/100 card to work in Redhat 6.0, I decided to upgrade to Redhat 6.1. To make a long story short, I ended up doing a clean install, and I proceeded to set up my network card. The tulip driver that came with redhat 6.1 refused to load (failed) at bootup, so I downloaded the latest tulip driver. After placing tulip.c in the /usr/src/2.2.12/modules/net and a freshly compiled tulip.o in the /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net, I added "alias eth0 tulip" to my conf.modules. I recompiled my whole source code plus modules plus modules_install then I rebooted. The system (which is an AMD K6-2 300 with 192 Mgs of ram) loaded all of the startup drivers quickly until it got to "bring up interface eth0." At this point the system hung for 10 seconds, then after stating "OK" continued to load the drivers but now much MUCH more slowly (about 5 seconds for each OK.) Shortly thereafter, I continued to receive the following broadcasted error: "Tx hung, 9 vs. 0 Transmit timed out, status e4560000, CSR12 000000CC, resetting" This continued until I finally managed to reboot. Any ideas what the problem could be?
