hi, I have two computers connected with a crossover cable (BTW, thanks &rw), both with 100Mb/s ethernet cards (SIS900 & RealTek 8139) but they seem to be connected only by 10Mb/s (NFS transfers are at a bit more than 1 mbyte/s). I just compiled the drivers into the kernel.
am I forgetting to set something ? I think maybe this is a too specific question for this list (sorry), so any pointers to other lists/documents are welcome. thanks, :-) jan ps.: I've read the Ethernet and NFS HOWTO, but found nothing appropriate. ps2.: Kernel (2.4.0-test9) messages about eth0: Machine1: ... 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.10 loaded eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xca82ff00, 00:e0:7d:8c:85:df, IRQ 10 eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139B' ...
