Hello list, I have been happily using the eepro100 driver, but recently discovered that a motherboard I am using has an "interesting" PCI feature: it allows only 3 dwords per dma rx burst. And, not surprisingly, I have sub-optimal performance on this interface. I tried to set the rxdmacount to try to force the driver to accomodate this limitation, but I didn't notice any difference in performance. I found this option by using the modinfo comand, but the description only says "int". I haven't yet dug into the code, can someone tell me off hand, if this parameter affects the issue at hand, and what the appropriate value would be? Thanks, -Bob -- Bob Beers Edge Access, Inc.
