<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am using linux kernel 2.6.17.1 on ML403 dev board. I am trying
to get the TEMAC to work but with no success. I applied TEMAC patches
from <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://source.mvista.com/%7Eank/paulus-powerpc/20060309/"
target="_blank" rel="nofollow" _=""><font color="#003399">http://source.mvista.com/~ank/paulus-powerpc/20060309/</font></a>.
But the ethernet interface does not seem to come up. <br>
</div>
<div>Is there any other TEMAC patch out there which is known to work
with 2.6 kernel? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>For the BSP I tried using the ML403 EDK Embedded PowerPC
reference design from Xilinx. But it doesn't come with a PLB TEMAC in
the design. I also tried to use xapp902 which has the PLB TEMAC module.
But on running "Generate Libraries and BSPs" it does not generate any
sources code under "drivers" or "arch" folder.</div>

I do nto beleive Xilinx has released an EDK that includes Linux 2.6
support.<br>
The patches you linked to should work for a 2.6 kernel with a PLB
TEMAC. But you must manually go in and force the speed to whatever you
need. The MV driver at your link does nto autonegotiate.<br>
<br>
I have a combined LL_TEMAC/PLB_TEMAC driver that does autonegotiate. It
did work for the LL_TEMAC several iterations ago, but I have not
tested it in some time.<br>
It does not yet work for Linux. It is very loosely based on the MV
driver, but does nt use the EDK, and is only for the LL_TEMAC and FIFO
PLB_TEMAC.<br>
<br>
There is a link to it in a previous message.<br>
