Broadcom Ethernet not working- tg3 running kernel 2.6When installing Debian Sarge with kernel 2.6 on a IBM HS20 Blade the Broadcom Ethernet interface does not work. When using kernel 2.4 the interface works fine. I've tried to download the tg3 driver from the Broadcom web site, but the instruction are not clear to me. http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/driver-sla.php?driver=570x-Linux After the tar-file is extracted the instructions refers to; cd src Under my Debian Sarge installation the only source dir is /usr/src linblade2:/usr/src/tg3-3.58b# make make -C /lib/modules/2.6.8-2-386/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/tg3-3.58b modules linblade2:/usr/src/tg3-3.58b# uname -r This is from the Broadcom Makefile; Non of the references above that makes the variable 'LINUXSRC' are correct. Has anyone runned in to this issue before? How can I find out which driver version that comes with the kernel I'm using? If I install kernel 2.4 and then upgrade to 2.6 will the driver also change? |
