site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com I have a beige G3 I'd like to run a RealTek 8139 Ethernet PCI adapter in (since I have a couple of them). There's a driver for Jaguar (and earlier) downloadable from RealTek ... and it works ... sort of. Curiously, it will trundle along for quite some time, having no apparent difficulty until one attempts to move something like an image file of a full CD, say, through it. The kernel then starts logging messages proclaiming "Weird Interrupt..." and it subsequently becomes very dodgie. Both cards seem to behave the same. I originally thought the first one was broken but it's had no trouble functioning in a FreeBSD box for a number of moons now. I have been led to believe that the 8139 was workable without a third party driver in Panther. That got me interested in looking at the list of extensions on my G5, where I bumped into AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext, which probably explains why the cards are supposed to work in Panther. I had hoped to find this driver code in the Darwin source. It doesn't seem to be there. ??? Also, does anyone happen to know whether AppleRTL8139Ethernet.kext will function under Jaguar? That, and whether it actually works? -- Walter M.
