Topic: NIC D-link DFE-550TX

[Kurt Baetens]

Hello,

For the last couple of days, I've been trying to get an e-smith server (V5.1.2) up and running with the D-link NIC DFE-550 TX.
Apparently, this NIC is currently not supported by the e-smith server. So, I've compiled the driver-module (sundance.o) on the e-smith server (after installing the necessary rpm's first). All went well (compilation ok) until I tried to insert the driver-module into the kernel ('insmod sundance.o').

I received the following error-messages after doing the 'insmod sundance.o':

'sundance.o: unresolved symbol init_etherdev_Rdc6a3e7a
sundance.o: unresolved symbol skb_over_panic_RCaef9b0b
sundance.o: unresolved symbol eth_type_trans_Re1da133f
sundance.o: unresolved symbol __kfree_skb_R805843f2
sundance.o: unresolved symbol unregister_netdev_R7abfab38
sundance.o: unresolved symbol alloc_skb_R03da498f
sundance.o: unresolved symbol netif_rx_R1877ba5e
sundance.o: unresolved symbol eth_copy_and_sum_Ra2877817'

Can anybody give me clue what might be the cause of this problem. Or, even better, provide me with some feedback on how to get this NIC working on the e-smith server.

Thanks and best regards !!

Kurt.

I caught hell trying to get D-Link nics to work on e-smith and after one day went and bought 2 $15 Realtek nics and ended my agony. But if you choose to pursue this go to Redhat.com the info needed should be there.
