RE: realtek r8169 + kernel 2.4.24 (openmosix)

[Nicholas Papadakos]

Hello,


I commented out the line recompiled but still same problem.
I couldn't apply the patch because whenever I tried I got :

patch -p0 < rtl 
patching file drivers/net/r8169.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1161.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file drivers/net/r8169.c.rej


A dump of r8169.c.rej :


***************
*** 1161,1167 ****

  static inline void rtl8169_make_unusable_by_asic(struct RxDesc *desc)  {
-       desc->addr = 0x0badbadbadbadbad;
        desc->status &= ~cpu_to_le32(OWNbit | RsvdMask);  }



--- 1161,1167 ----

  static inline void rtl8169_make_unusable_by_asic(struct RxDesc *desc)  {
+       desc->addr = 0x0badbadbadbadbadull;
        desc->status &= ~cpu_to_le32(OWNbit | RsvdMask);  }


I tried to apply the patch both in the older version and in the new one but
nothing.

And yeah values greater than 1500 would improve openmosix a lot a believe.

Thank you for your time,
Regards,

Nicholas Papadakos
