Did you compile QoS and/or fair queuing support into the kernel (i.e., not the traffic shaping device which is in the device section)?

[gentoo-user] [OT] traffic shaping
Hi folks, I am struggling with traffic shaping. I have ironed out most rough things but are stuck with one remaining issue. It happens as soon as I enter any one of the following lines: tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1: prio 2 handle 1 fw flowid 1:20 tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1: protocol ip prio 2 handle 1 fw flowid 1:20 tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1: prio 2 handle 1 fw classid 1:20 tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1: protocol ip prio 2 handle 1 fw classid 1:20 I then get the error message: RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument We have an error talking to the kernel Prior experience suggests that a module is missing or not loaded. The question is: Which one? Or am I completely wrong in my assumption? Any experts here to lend a brain cell? ;-) Uwe -- Why do consumers keep buying products they will live to curse? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
