Re: Attansic L1 Gigabit LAN Controller

2007-11-01 Thread Richard Hesketh
Hi, I'm looking for a FreeBSD driver for the Attansic L1 Gigabit LAN  
Controller (used by ASUS and to my eternal shame I did not check the  
FreeBSD compatible hardware list before buying the P5L-VM 1394  
motherboard .. silly really as I've been using FreeBSD as my server  
OS since 8-).


According to the archives, Alex Lukin has been working on porting one  
and I'd love to get hold of the latest version and help out with  
development.


So if Alex is around could you contact me and let me have the patch(es)?

Thanks very much.

Cheers,

Richard

Hi Alex,

 Is anybody working on driver for ${subj} ?

I'm working on this driver. The porting progress is slow since I have
some other things to do.  Currently, the driver called age can detect
MAC address:

age0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500
options=9bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM
ether 00:1b:fc:64:d1:8e

 Linux 2.6.22 has driver  for this card ( Attansic L1) under GNU license, so 
 we 
 can port it to FreeBSD. Some smart guy  bought ASUS MB with this addapter on 
 board for my university and I need to run FreeBSD so... I badly need the 
 driver.
 
 This driver is  Intel's e1000 so it won't be much difficult to port.

Not exactly.

 I do not have any expirience to write BSD network drivers so please guys take 
 this task for 7.0
 
 If no one interested so let it be, it will my first net driver for FreeBSD :) 
   

If you're interested, I can send you my patch(against -HEAD).

Kevin

Hi, Remko! Hi, hackers!
 Hello Alex,

 PErhaps you can start by submitting a boot -v and pciconf -vl from the
 machine to identify the card? if it's a common thing we use at the moment
 already; the addition -could- be trivial... but without any information
 this is difficult.
boot does not say much, pciconf too:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0: class=0x02 card=0x82261043 chip=0x10481969 rev=0xb0 
hdr=0x00
class  = network
subclass   = ethernet

 Remember that something which is important for you might not be important
 for others; demanding work from others is interesting every now and then;
 so if you -urgently- and -really- need it, you could consider funding this
 part :-)

Thank you for lesson, dear teacher :)
