D-Link DFE-530TX PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter Installation			 for Linux	                        v4.16  May. 2002                          Introduction:=============    The instructions listed below are for linux driver installation. You must    compile the source code to generate rhinefet.o and use insmod command to    insert rhinefet.o as module.Contents of the Subdirectory:=============================    linux.txt               This file.    rhinefet.h              The linux core driver header file    rhinefet.c              The linux core driver source code file    Makefile                Makefile for generating driver object file    rhine_vmns.c            The vmns driver support source file    rhine_vmns.h            The vmns driver support header file    rhine_cfg.h             The vmns driver support header file    vmns_drv.h              The vmns driver support header fileKernel Supported================    This driver support linux kernel version 2.2.x and 2.4.x now.Installation============    Please enter the following commands at the UNIX prompt. Remember, UNIX is    case sensitive.    1) Create a temporary directory:        mkdir /temp    2) Change to the temporary directory:        cd /temp    2) Copy driver (dlkfet.tar) from DOS disk, (mcopy below is one tool in       mtools, if you didn't install mtools, you can type        'mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt' and use 'cp /mnt/dlkfet.tar /temp'       command to copy the driver to the temporary directory):        mcopy a:dlkfet-4.16.tar.gz .    3) untar the archive file:        tar xzvf dlkfet-4.16.tar.gz        cd dlkfet-4.16                             4) Compile the driver source files and it will generate rhinefet.o, and       copy it to correct driver installation path (The installation directory       is different in different kernel versions. In 2.4.x kernel, the path is        /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/kernel/drivers/net/, and in 2.2.x kernel,       the path is /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/net/, the KERNEL_VERSION (see       above) means the kernel version of your Linux distribution. If you don't       know your kernel version , please run 'uname -r' command in command        line. The kernel version will look like '2.2.16', '2.4.2-2smp' etc.) :        make install    5) Check configuration file (/etc/modules.conf or /etc/conf.modules,it        depend on your Linux distribution) for loading kernel modules. Make sure       there is the following content in the configuration file, where # is        interface number (eg: alias eth0 rhinefet):        alias eth# rhinefet    6) Reboot now:        shutdown -r now    7) Install your driver module (If the driver module is in the wrong place,       an error message will appear, and say that can't find the driver        module):        insmod rhinefet    8) Use ifconfig command to assign the IP address, where # is network        interface number:        ifconfig eth# <IP>    9) Check the interface works:        ping <remote_host_IP>Uninstallation==============    Please enter the following commands to uninstall your driver:        make uninstallNote ====    1) Make sure the link file /usr/src/linux (or /usr/src/linux-2.4) is linked       to correctly kernel sources directory (eg: if you run 'uname -r', it       appears "2.4.2-2", then the link file must be linked to        /usr/src/linux-2.4.2 directory, or you will fail in compiling),       and make sure there are kernel header files in /usr/src/linux/include       directory (or /usr/src/linux-2.4/include), we need kernel header files       in compling.    2) If you can't install driver in SUSE Linux using insmod or modprobe       commands, and error messages appear (see below), please run 'uname -r'       in command line. And make sure the result of 'uname -r' (eg: 2.4.2-4GB)       is the same with the definition of UTS_RELEASE in        /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h. If not, please modify the        definition of UTS_RELEASE in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h.         rhinefet.o: kernel-module version mismatch	         rhinefet.o was compiled for kernel version 2.4.2	         while this kernel is version 2.4.2-4GB.    3) Make sure that your kernel is built with network, fast_ethernet       and module support. Otherwise, you have to rebuild your kernel (see       below).        1. Go to /usr/src/linux (or /usr/src/linux-2.4) directory:            cd /usr/src/linux        2: Run 'make menuconfig' or 'make config' in text mode, or 'make            xconfig' in graphic mode.        3: Mark the options list above.        4: Exit and rebuild your kernel:            make dep;make clean;make bzImage           The file 'bzImage' will be at /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage        5: Modify /etc/lilo.conf.(this file specifies where kernel image is)        6: Run 'lilo'        7: Reboot, and select the correct kernel image to boot your system.    4) You can use the utility (like netconfig, linuxconf) in your Linux        distribution to set your network parameters(like ip,gateway). These       parameters will be used at boot time. The following is the demonstration       to show how to use linuxconf (it's a utitlity in RedHat Linux 6.x) set       the network paramters.       1. Run linuxconf:           linuxconf       2. Enter setting in the Config/Networking/Client tasks/Basic host information/          and fill out the following information. Where 'xxx' is the IP address          what you have.                    IP address:    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx                    Netmask:       255.255.255.xxx                    Net device:    eth0                    Kernel module: rhinefet            5) If you can't install driver at boot time.       If you can install your driver using insmod command, but you can't       install it at boot time, please check whether the driver is in the       correct directory (eg: /lib/modules/2.2.XXX/net/), and check the       /lib/modules/2.2.XXX/modules.dep file, it must include the following       line:            /lib/modules/2.2.XXX/net/rhinefet.o:       You can insert this line using depmod command or insert it manually.       Also, you must consult your Linux distribution installation guide       and learn how to set the IP address of your network interface and        up it at boot time.    6) If you can't compile this driver, and parse error messages appear,       please make sure your source code text format is right. You must convert       your source code text format from MS-DOS to UNIX, as show below (see       Solution 1 and 2).       Make sure the files in floppy disk are not dlkfet.tar file. They must       be the source code text files (5 files), dlkfet.tar is not a text file       , so it can't be converted.        Solution1:            If you use mcopy command to copy your driver from floppy disk to            linux, you can type:                mcopy -t a:\* .            then it will convert the format for you.         Solution2:            If you use mount command to mount floppy disk to linux, you can            type:                mount -t vfat -o conv=t /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy            then, when you copy files from /mnt/floppy, these files format will            be right.Module Parameter:=================The following parameters can be set when we install the driver module. You can add this parameters whenyou execute 'insmod' or 'modprobe' command to install the driver (as below).    insmod rhinefet.o parameter=value1,value2,value3,...For example, if you have 3 NIC cards, and you want to set the speed_duplex paramter value of them .You can type the following command to set it.    insmod rhinefet.o speed_duplex=1,2,3Then, the parameter value of first card will be 1 (100Mbps half duplex mode), the second card willbe 2 (100Mbps full duplex mode), and the third card will be 3 (10Mbps half duplex mode).Remember, our driver only support 8 cards parameter setting. 1) speed_duplex   speed_duplex[] is used for setting the speed and duplex mode of NIC.

Value:       0: disable (default)       1: enable6) flow_control   flow_control[] is used for setting the flow control ability of NIC.   Value:       1: hardware deafult (Default). Use Hardware default value in ANAR.       2: disable PAUSE in ANAR.       3: enable PAUSE in ANAR.7) IP_byte_align   IP_byte_align[] is used for IP header DWORD byte aligned (For IPVS environment).   (In some enviroment, the IP header should be DWORD byte aligned,or the packet   will be droped when we receive it. (eg: IPVS))   Value:       0: indicate the IP header won't be DWORD byte aligned (Default).       1: indicate the IP header will be DWORD byte aligned.8) tx_thresh   tx_thresh[] is used for controlling the transmit fifo threshold.   Value:       0: indicate the txfifo threshold is 128 bytes (Default).       1: indicate the txfifo threshold is 256 bytes.       2: indicate the txfifo threshold is 512 bytes.       3: indicate the txfifo threshold is 1024 bytes.       4: indicate that we use store and forward9) rx_thresh   rx_thresh[] is used for controlling the receive fifo threshold.
