broadcom 802.3ad

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



Does anyone have some tips for setting up Broadcom's 802.3AD support
or just getting their driver compiled / installed?

First off, I noticed redhat claims the broadcom bcm5708 driver has
been added to the rhel4 kernel.  But I don't see /proc/net/nicinfo
which broadcom claims the driver creates when it's successfully
initialized.

So, I'm trying to build the driver based on the source files
downloaded from Broadcom:

I downloaded their source rpm, installed it and now trying to build a binary rpm

(pwd is /usr/src/redhat)

# rpmbuild -bb SPECS/bnx2.spec

it starts off OK, and then bombs

make -C  SUBDIRS=/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/bnx2-1.4.43b modules
make: *** SUBDIRS=/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/bnx2-1.4.43b: No such file or
directory.  Stop.
make: *** [default] Error 2

but the directory it's complaining about does indeed exist


Here's the output from dmesg regarding my card

Broadcom NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet Driver bnx2 v1.4.38 (February 10, 2006)

Any input is welcomed!
