NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     le -- DEC EtherWORKS II/III Ethernet device driver

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     device le 1

     In /boot/device.hints:
     hint.le.0.at="isa"
     hint.le.0.port="0x300"
     hint.le.0.irq="5"
     hint.le.0.maddr="0xd0000"

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The le driver provides support for the later Digital Equipment EtherWORKS
     II (DE200, DE201, DE202, DE422), and the DEC EtherWORKS III NICs (DE203,
     DE204, and DE205) NICs.

     The valid IRQ settings for the le driver are 5, 10, 11, and 15.

DIAGNOSTICS    [Toc]    [Back]

     le%d: not configured -- too many devices  There is a limit of the number
     of le devices allowed in a single machine.

     le%d: lemac configuration error: expected IRQ 0x%x actual 0x%x  The
     probed IRQ value did not match the value specified in the kernel configuration
 file.  Either the card should be changed, or a new kernel should
     be built.

     le%d: lemac configuration error: expected iomem 0x%x actual 0x%x  The
     probed iomem value did not match the value specified in the kernel configuration
 file.  Either the card should be changed, or a new kernel
     should be built.

     le%d: reset: EEPROM checksum failed (0x%x)  The le driver depends on the
     information in the EEPROM being correct.  If this error occurs, please
     reconfigure the card.

     le%d: fatal RXD error, attempting recovery
     le%d: recovery failed -- board disabled  A receive error occurred.  The
     driver will attempt to recover from this error.  However if it cannot,
     the driver will shut the card down.

     le%d: lance: warning: excessive collisions: TDR%dns (%d-%dm)  An overly
     high number of Ethernet collisions were detected.	It may be the case
     that the network is overly busy.  Or this may suggest a problem with the
     EtherWORKS card.
