Then your knowledge is rather limited. eth3com.device and the emu10k driver are both DMA drivers. FYI, the 3COM chip can *only* operate in DMA mode.
Describing either of those drivers as 'working' is being more than a bit optimistic. On my A1 (and many others, going by the various threads on here) they are unstable to the point of being useless. Something - either the drivers or the hardware - is clearly broken.
Live from AW.net. Hope you like it.
Okay, the 3com driver is new and probably immature, but Martin Blom's EMU10K driver is mature and solid - I've been running it on Amithlon for months with no problems. It's rather worrying that the same code (or mostly the same) runs so badly on the A1. |
