Hi, I'm having problems using my RTL8139 network card with Xen. Output from lspci reports "Realtek Semiconducter Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8319C/8139C+ (rev 10)". Although /xeno-1.2/xen/drivers/net/SUPPORTED_CARDS lists rtl8139 as ported, I can't find any reference in the source files. Unsurprisingly both the demo CD and locally built versions for the stable release don't appear to support my network card. The bit keeper binary appears to just hang when I try and clone the unstable source, so I've unpacked the nightly tarball instead. The ChangeLog states that 8139too.c was added at 2004-03-02 11:33:20, and this appears to be built. Booting the unstable version, I noticed Xen reports support for RTL-8139 as eth0, and even the partner ability which I guess indicates it's a real physical device? I only saw this output before Xen stalled when I used the xenolinuz.gz from 1.2 with "noreboot" - I don't know how else to capture such logs. However using the correct xenolinux.gz to boot properly I still get the same problems as ever. Trying "ifname=eth0" didn't help either. In all cases dhclient only broadcasts DISCOVER requests and gets no responses. The output from "ifconfig eth0" lists a MAC of all zeroes and TX data only, with zero RX counters. What's the status of the 8139 driver? Should this be working, or am I missing something? Thanks, Sean. -- Sean Atkinson <sean@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Netproject ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
