This is the post I sent recently, I have since tried it as a module, can anyone suggest any hints or suggestions as to how to make this card go into full duplex. I'm starting to feel like an astronaut, I have been to the nasa site so much, reading about tulip drivers. I have a message into Acer, about hardware forcing this card into FullDuplex, but, as yet, I haven't received any reply. I'll try anything, I'm just not sure what parameters I should pass.
Any suggestions welcome.
I recently purchased a couple of Acer ALN 310TX Ethernet adapators, I have the machine one of them is in, plugged into a Cisco Catalyst 1900 100Mbs port, which has been enabled for Full Duplex. The chip on the card has 21140AF on it. I am running a Linux kernel 2.0.33, with the 0.86I tulip.c driver, in a monolithic kernel. I uncommented out the the section in tulip.c to enable full duplex. But I can't get the card to go into full duplex.
