| |
[1.] One line summary of the problem: pegasus.c driver gives 'Tx timed out' on high traffic
[2.] Full description of the problem/report: The pegasus driver gives errors on Billionton 10/100 FastEthernet (USBE-100B2) adapters on Toshiba 2140CDS NEC-based USB controllers, in the form of "Tx timed out" and "Intr status -84", on anything but light traffic (<1 Mbit) lasting for more than a few seconds (5-7 seconds). Card then stops conveying traffic for anywhere between 5 and 20 seconds, then recouperates. Very annoying as it renders cards unusable. Doesn't happen with any other USB controller, nor any other USB device on the same controller (copying large files from/to an MP3 player works fine).
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel): usb, networking, IRQs?
[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version): 2.4.26 (has the issue been fixed in a newer kernel perhaps?)
[7.2.] Processor information (from /proc/cpuinfo): AMD K6-2 450 MHz
[X.] Other notes, patches, fixes, workarounds: Purposely slow down the network traffic? ;-)
I sent it here because the person I assumed to be the original mainainer (the guy running pegasus2.sf.net) hasn't answered. If I remember right, he didn't answer 2 years ago either...
