Hi, I am new to working in embedded linux applications and would appreciate a little help. We are porting linux to a custom mpc8275 board and we are having some difficulties with the fcc ethernet driver. Does anyone know if the fcc enet driver in linux 2.6.9 kernel works and if it works if the kernel is compiled preemptible. We are trying to boot the kernel with dhcp, but the network seems very slow and unreliable and this only with "preemptible kernel" option disabled. We are using mpc8275VR and LXT972A PHY, could this be the cause for trouble.
Best Regards, Saso
