Hello! Are you aware that there is a patch for using VLAN with tulip driver in the 2.4 series, which does not patch cleanly to a 2.6 driver? The patch is available at: http://www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan/howto.html#tulip I can say, that it runs stable, we have a heavy VLAN usage in our quadport cards (DFE 570 et al.) First, is there any reason why that patch didn't make into the kernel tree? Basically it just allows frames 4 bytes larger than usual (802.1q header). Secondly could anyone make that patch apply to the 2.6.x? (This is beyond the scope of my skills yet :-/) Beste Regrads, Andreas -- Andreas John net-lab GmbH Luisenstrasse 30b 63067 Offenbach Tel: +49 69 85700331 http://www.net-lab.net _______________________________________________ tulip mailing list, [email protected] To change to digest mode or unsubscribe visit http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/tulip
