dmfe.c: Version 1.30 05/02/2000

A Davicom DM9102/DM9102A/DM9102A+DM9801(HomeRun)/DM9102A+DM9802(LongRun) NIC fast ethernet driver for Linux. Copyright (C) 1997 Sten Wang

A. Compiler command:

A-1: For normal single processor kernel
"gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall 
-Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"

A-2: For single processor and enable kernel module version function
"gcc -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include 
-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"

A-3: For multiple processors(SMP) and enable the module version function
"gcc -D__SMP__ -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux
/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c dmfe.c"

Note: O of -O6 is a capital o, not a "0".


B. The following steps teach you how to active NIC:

1. Used the upper compiler command to compile dmfe.c

2. Insert dmfe module into kernel
"insmod dmfe" ;;Auto Detection Mode (Suggest)
"insmod dmfe mode=0" ;;Force 10M Half Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=1" ;;Force 100M Half Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=4" ;;Force 10M Full Duplex
"insmod dmfe mode=5" ;;Force 100M Full Duplex

3. Config a dm9102 network interface
"ifconfig eth0 172.22.3.18"
^^^^^^^^^^^ Your IP address

4. Active the IP routing table. For some distributions, it is not necessary. You can type "route" to check.

"route add default eth0"


5. Well done. Your DM9102 adapter actived now.

Note. This is a temporary method. After you reboot the system, you will lost the setting.


C. Object files description:
1. dmfe_r60.o: For Redhat 6.0, kernel version 2.2.5-15
2. dmfe_r61.o: For Redhat 6.1, kernel version 2.2.12-20
3. dmfe_r62.o: For Redhat 6.2, kernel version 2.2.14-5.0
4. dmfe_m61.o: For Mandrake 6.1, kernel version 2.2.13-7mdk
4. dmfe_m70.o: For Mandrake 7.0, kernel version 2.2.14-15mdk
5. dmfe_c23.o: For Caldera 2.3, kernel version 2.2.10

If you can make sure your kernel version, you can rename to dmfe.o and directly use it without re-compiling.
