Ismail Donmez | 1db1a87 | 2005-06-20 15:32:52 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 14 | This driver provides kernel support for Davicom DM9102(A)/DM9132/DM9801 ethernet cards ( CNET |
| 15 | 10/100 ethernet cards uses Davicom chipset too, so this driver supports CNET cards too ).If you |
| 16 | didn't compile this driver as a module, it will automatically load itself on boot and print a |
| 17 | line similar to : |

Ismail Donmez | 1db1a87 | 2005-06-20 15:32:52 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 21 | If you compiled this driver as a module, you have to load it on boot.You can load it with command : |
| 22 | |
| 23 | insmod dmfe |
| 24 | |
| 25 | This way it will autodetect the device mode.This is the suggested way to load the module.Or you can pass |
| 26 | a mode= setting to module while loading, like : |
| 27 | |
| 28 | insmod dmfe mode=0 # Force 10M Half Duplex |
| 29 | insmod dmfe mode=1 # Force 100M Half Duplex |
| 30 | insmod dmfe mode=4 # Force 10M Full Duplex |
| 31 | insmod dmfe mode=5 # Force 100M Full Duplex |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Next you should configure your network interface with a command similar to : |
| 34 | |
| 35 | ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18 |
| 36 | ^^^^^^^^^^^ |
| 37 | Your IP Adress |
| 38 | |
| 39 | Then you may have to modify the default routing table with command : |
| 40 | |
| 41 | route add default eth0 |
