| 16 | This driver provides kernel support for Davicom DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 ethernet cards ( CNET |
| 17 | 10/100 ethernet cards uses Davicom chipset too, so this driver supports CNET cards too ).If you |
| 18 | didn't compile this driver as a module, it will automatically load itself on boot and print a |
| 19 | line similar to : |
| 20 | |
| 21 | dmfe: Davicom DM9xxx net driver, version 1.36.4 (2002-01-17) |
| 22 | |
| 23 | If you compiled this driver as a module, you have to load it on boot.You can load it with command : |
| 24 | |
| 25 | insmod dmfe |
| 26 | |
| 27 | This way it will autodetect the device mode.This is the suggested way to load the module.Or you can pass |
| 28 | a mode= setting to module while loading, like : |
| 29 | |
| 30 | insmod dmfe mode=0 # Force 10M Half Duplex |
| 31 | insmod dmfe mode=1 # Force 100M Half Duplex |
| 32 | insmod dmfe mode=4 # Force 10M Full Duplex |
| 33 | insmod dmfe mode=5 # Force 100M Full Duplex |
| 34 | |
| 35 | Next you should configure your network interface with a command similar to : |
| 36 | |
| 37 | ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18 |
| 38 | ^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| 39 | Your IP Address |
| 40 | |
| 41 | Then you may have to modify the default routing table with command : |
| 42 | |
| 43 | route add default eth0 |
| 44 | |
| 45 | |
| 46 | Now your ethernet card should be up and running. |

| 49 | TODO: |
| 50 | |
| 51 | Implement pci_driver::suspend() and pci_driver::resume() power management methods. |
| 52 | Check on 64 bit boxes. |
| 53 | Check and fix on big endian boxes. |
| 54 | Test and make sure PCI latency is now correct for all cases. |
