| |
Hi,
I've two 3com 3C996B-T network cards (lspci says it's a Broadcom BCM5701 chip) in Asus A8V boards with an AMD64 4000+ cpu. Booting a x86_64 version of the 2.6.12.2 kernel, the tg3 module complains
tg3.c: v3.31 (June 8, 2005) tg3_test_dma() Write the buffer failed -19 tg3: DMA engine test failed, aborting.
and no eth0 is available. However, when booting a 32bit version of 2.6.12.2, the cards work well with the tg3 module. So it must be some problem in the x86_64 specific kernel code.
Any ideas what I could do? What further information can I provide?
cu, Frank
