I am still having some issues with the driver (I am using RTAI's LXRT at the moment):
(My setup:
-Master + 1 slave
-Each PC has 1 e100 and 2 e1000 Ethernet ports
-Uses second e1000 port for rtnet("cards=0,1,0,0")
-Fedora core 5
-kernel 2.6.15.1
-gcc 3.3.6
-RTAI 3.3-cv
-Standard e1000 driver: version 7.1.9 (latest from from Intel's site)
-rtnet 0.9.5)
1. The slave receives the stage 1 info from the master via "rtcfg", but sometimes the slave then hangs when running "tdmacfg rteth0 slot 0 200". This happens when using the rtnet script, and when I run the commands by hand. Increasing the delays after insmod doesn't seem to have an effect. What I usually do when this happens is to switch the roles of the master and the slave, and then they usually intialize correctly. If they do initialize correctly however, the TDMA calibrated master-to-slave packet delay is reported as a very large negative value, about -200000000us.
2. When I use the rtnet script, it seems that the standard e1000 driver is also loaded (most of the time). This does not happen when I run the same commands by hand. I have attached the "dmesg" output at the end of the mail. As you can see the normal e1000 driver is loaded after the message "e1000: rteth0: e1000_watchdog: NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex ". (My other e1000 port is then up).
Any suggestions?
Thanks
