Subject2.1.61-davem fixes and breaks
Hi All,
I am happy to report that the davem version of 2.1.61 has fixed
the problems I reported with the stock 2.1.61. Specifically, hdparm
can put the disk into DMA mode again, and I get the CPU identified
as an i586 rather than an iE86. I have not yet tried to boot this
kernel w/o Cyrix processor support, so I don't know if that works
or not.
Unfortunatly PPP does not seem to work anymore. Here is what
I get in my logfile:

Nov 5 06:52:30 Bessie pppd[245]: Serial connection established.
Nov 5 06:52:31 Bessie pppd[245]: Using interface ppp0
Nov 5 06:52:31 Bessie pppd[245]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cua2
Nov 5 06:52:32 Bessie pppd[245]: Remote message: Pass Authentication
Nov 5 06:52:32 Bessie pppd[245]: local IP address 12.69.36.165
Nov 5 06:52:32 Bessie pppd[245]: remote IP address 12.69.36.1
Nov 5 06:52:32 Bessie pppd[245]: ioctl(SIOCADDRT) device route: Network is downNov 5 06:52:32 Bessie pppd[245]: LCP terminated at peer's request
Nov 5 06:52:35 Bessie pppd[245]: Connection terminated.
Nov 5 06:52:35 Bessie pppd[245]: Exit.

I had this happen both times I tried to start PPP under 2.1.61-davem.
I rebooted into 2.0.31 and PPP works fine. I just looked in my .config
file and PPP is enabled. Now that I think about it there were some
new CONFIG options concering routing. I took the defaults where were
off:

#
# Networking options
#
# CONFIG_PACKET is not set
# CONFIG_NETLINK is not set
# CONFIG_FIREWALL is not set
# CONFIG_NET_ALIAS is not set
CONFIG_INET=y
# CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is not set
# CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER is not set
# CONFIG_IP_PNP is not set
# CONFIG_IP_ACCT is not set
# CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE is not set
# CONFIG_IP_ROUTER is not set
# CONFIG_NET_IPIP is not set
# CONFIG_NET_IPGRE is not set
# CONFIG_IP_ALIAS is not set
CONFIG_SYN_COOKIES=y

I wonder if it would work if I set CONFIG_IP_ROUTER=y ? I will give it
a try in a few minutes, but in any event, if it needs this to work with PPP,
then I would think that enabling PPP should turn it on. Of course its quite
possible that I am missing something.

Anyway, I thought that yall would like a report. Thanks for the good work.

Jim
