Re: PCI Ethernet card


Hi,

> > * Turn on the debug messages in the RLTK driver (..._CHATTER)

I did this. Interrupt Status Register's bit 5 ( PUN/LinkChg- Packet Underrun/Link Change ) was getting set each time after a packet was sent through the RealTek 8139 NIC.


The status printed showed this (0x20 or 0x24),
diag_printf("rltk8139_deliver(%s): %04x\n", sc->dev_name, status);

Please let me know why this is happening? Is this a common thing or an error condition. Apart from the spec.?s (which gives very little details about these registers & the 8139 chip operation), is there a better document (or a detailed document for some other related chip)? If so, please send me the URL for the same.

Thanks,
-Mike.
