Ubuntu, nätverks drivrutiner.
Hejsan!
Jag har aldrig använt linux innan och nu försöker jag installera ubuntu 9.10 på morsans dator för att slippa virus.
Jag har ett problem dock, jag vet inte hur jag ska göra för att installera drivrutinerna till nätverkskortet. Jag kan inte ansluta till interneten nämligen.
Jag tror att jag har linux drivers i cd-skivan som hängde med moderkortet, i den står det:
In This Release
===============
This file describes the Linux* Base Driver for the Atheros(R) L1 Gigabit
Ethernet Adapter, version 1.0.x. This driver supports the 2.4.x and 2.6.x kernels.
This driver is only supported as a loadable module at this time. Atheros is not
supplying patches against the kernel source to allow for static linking of
the driver. For questions related to hardware requirements, refer to the
documentation supplied with your Atheros(R) adapter. All hardware
requirements listed apply to use with Linux.
Building and Installation
=========================
To build a binary RPM* package of this driver, run 'rpmbuild -tb
<filename.tar.gz>'. Replace <filename.tar.gz> with the specific filename of
the driver.
NOTE: For the build to work properly, the currently running kernel MUST match
the version and configuration of the installed kernel sources. If you
have just recompiled the kernel reboot the system now.
RPM functionality has only been tested in Red Hat distributions.
1. Move the base driver tar file to the directory of your choice. For example,
use /home/username/atl1 or /usr/local/src/atl1.
2. Untar/unzip archive:
tar zxf atl1-x.x.x.tar.gz
3. Change to the driver src directory:
cd atl1-x.x.x/src/
4. Compile the driver module:
make install
The binary will be installed as:
/lib/modules/<KERNEL VERSION>/kernel/drivers/net/atl1.[k]o
The install locations listed above are the default locations. They might
not be correct for certain Linux distributions. For more information,
see the ldistrib.txt file included in the driver tar.
5. Install the module:
insmod atl1 <parameter>=<value>
6. Assign an IP address to the interface by entering the following, where
x is the interface number:
ifconfig ethx <IP_address>
7. Verify that the interface works. Enter the following, where <IP_address>
is the IP address for another machine on the same subnet as the interface
that is being tested:
ping <IP_address>
Command Line Parameters
=======================
If the driver is built as a module, the following optional parameters are
used by entering them on the command line with the modprobe or insmod command
using this syntax:
modprobe atl1 [<option>=<VAL1>,<VAL2>,...]
insmod atl1 [<option>=<VAL1>,<VAL2>,...]
For example, with two L001 PCIE adapters, entering:
insmod atl1 TxDescriptors=80,128
loads the atl1 driver with 80 TX descriptors for the first adapter and 128 TX
descriptors for the second adapter.
The default value for each parameter is generally the recommended setting,
unless otherwise noted.
NOTES: A descriptor describes a data buffer and attributes related to the
data buffer. This information is accessed by the hardware.
MediaType
Valid Range: 0-5
0 - auto-negotiate at all supported speeds
1 - only link at 1000Mbps Full Duplex
2 - only link at 100Mbps Full Duplex
3 - only link at 100Mbps Half Duplex
4 - only link at 10Mbps Full Duplex
5 - only link at 10Mbps Half Duplex
Default Value: 0
MediaType forces the line speed/duplex to the specified value in
megabits per second(Mbps). If this parameter is not specified or is set
to 0 and the link partner is set to auto-negotiate, the board will
auto-detect the correct speed.
IntModTimer
Valid Range: 50-65000
Default Value: 100
This value represents the minmum interval between interrupts controller
generated.
RxDescriptors
Valid Range: 128-2047
Default Value: 256
This value is the number of RFD/RRD descriptors allocated by the driver.
Increasing this value allows the driver to buffer more incoming packets.
A receive buffer is also allocated for each descriptor and can be either
2048, 4096, or 8192 bytes, depending on the MTU setting.
The maximum MTU size is 8192.
NOTE: MTU designates the frame size. It only needs to be set for Jumbo
Frames.
NOTE: Depending on the available system resources, the request for a
higher number of receive descriptors may be denied. In this case,
use a lower number.
TxDescriptors
Valid Range: 64-1023
Default Value: 512
This value is the number of transmit descriptors allocated by the driver.
Increasing this value allows the driver to queue more transmits.
NOTE: Depending on the available system resources, the request for a
higher number of transmit descriptors may be denied. In this case,
use a lower number.
FlashVendor
Valid Range: 0-2
Default Value: 0
This value standards on vendor of spi flash used by the adapter.
0 for Atmel, 1 for SST, 2 for ST
Men jag fattar ingenting!!
