| This driver provides kernel support for Davicom DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 ethernet cards ( CNET |
| 10/100 ethernet cards uses Davicom chipset too, so this driver supports CNET cards too ).If you |
| didn't compile this driver as a module, it will automatically load itself on boot and print a |
| line similar to : |
| |
| dmfe: Davicom DM9xxx net driver, version 1.36.4 (2002-01-17) |
| |
| If you compiled this driver as a module, you have to load it on boot.You can load it with command : |
| |
| insmod dmfe |
| |
| This way it will autodetect the device mode.This is the suggested way to load the module.Or you can pass |
| a mode= setting to module while loading, like : |
| |
| insmod dmfe mode=0 # Force 10M Half Duplex |
| insmod dmfe mode=1 # Force 100M Half Duplex |
| insmod dmfe mode=4 # Force 10M Full Duplex |
| insmod dmfe mode=5 # Force 100M Full Duplex |
| |
| Next you should configure your network interface with a command similar to : |
| |
| ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18 |
| ^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| Your IP Adress |
| |
| Then you may have to modify the default routing table with command : |
| |
| route add default eth0 |
| |
| |
| Now your ethernet card should be up and running. |

| TODO: |
| |
| Implement pci_driver::suspend() and pci_driver::resume() power management methods. |
| Check on 64 bit boxes. |
| Check and fix on big endian boxes. |
| Test and make sure PCI latency is now correct for all cases. |
