Kernel 2.4 driver for 3MVF 100MBit optical networking card ?

Post by Thomas Hub » Thu, 18 Oct 2001 23:50:00



Hello,

I ran into serious troubles: at our university they installed an
optical network. We got a network card from 3M (Volition VF-45).
On the CD that was delivered with the card there is even a linux-
driver (module 3mvf.o), but only for linux 2.0.36 and 2.2.5/2.2.1/2.2.10.
There is no driver for kernel 2.4 on the 3M webpage
(http://www.3m.com/volition/downloads/nic/linux.jhtml), too.

Is there an open-source driver available ? I desperately need
one for linux > 2.4.1 or my linux box will soon be without network
access...

Thanks,

Thomas

1. Kernel 2.2 Network Drivers to Kernel 2.4?

Can someone tell me what is the equivalent I would use for a 2.4.3
kernel. These come from a 2.2 kernel:

#Internet connection sharing 24.06.01
#echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
#echo "Loading Masquerade..."
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_raudio
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_ftp
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_irc
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_cuseeme
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_vdolive
#/sbin/insmod ip_masq_user
#ipchains -P forward DENY
#ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 10.0.0.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0
