RE: Duplex Setting with Network Driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Haven't tried using the bcm5700 yet, I believe the version I would be using
is like 2.0.5. I'd rather get the tg3 to work, but we'll see, I can
definitely just go with the bcm5700 for the kickstart, and then take it from
there.

Just drop something into %post like:

 perl -pi -e 's/bcm5700/tg3/g' /etc/modules.conf

Nope... apparently they (Broadcom) don't distribute any drivers and
rely on
their OEMs to handle it (ie, Dell, Compaq, whoever).  You might want
to
try looking through the source to see if there's a developer's email
addy you can try.

Side note: just tried a kickstart of 7.3 with the 2.2.27 bcm5700
driver,
and for some reason the card can't set up a defaultroute... so maybe
that's not the best route to be going down.  :-)
