rtl8139
« on: January 21, 2012, 05:57:08 PM »
Hi

I have a rtl8139 ethernet PCI card.
lsmod tells me that 8139too mod is loaded

It works but everytime I try to download a "big" file the download stalls ( with tce-load appears "stalled" after 2-3 MB , also with browser if I try to see a youtube video it hangs )

Instuctions suggest to compile the driver attached, I hope that will solve the problem.

I downloaded compiletc + linuxheaders + linuxheadersapi

but :

rtl8139.c:46:26: fatal error: linux/config.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

What should I download ( I searched that header into my system but I didn't find it) ?

Hi giac_fab
I believe  config.h  was replaced with  autoconf.h, search for that.

Hi giac_fab
See if this returns anything:
Code: [Select]
find /usr -name autoconf.h

mhmhm

it's not where aspected

/usr/local/src/linux-headers-3.0.3-tinycore/include/generated/autoconf.h

the source search "config.h" it under /usr/local/src/linux-headers-3.0.3-tinycore/include/linux

Do you suggest I symlink it as "config.h" ???

Hi giac_fab
You might want to see if you can find a newer version of this driver. This version contains:
#include <linux/bios32.h>
which seems to have disappeared somewhere around kernel version 2.1 or 2.2. I don't think this
file will compile without major rework.
