Subject: no carrier when using forcedeth on MSI K8N Neo4-F
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2006 13:37:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43C7F35A.9010703@summitinstruments.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 986 bytes --]

I am trying to connect two identical MSI K8N Neo4-F servers with NVIDIA 
nForce4 gigabit Lan ports. When the two ports are connected together via 
a crossover cable, neither computer is able to detect a carrier on the 
Lan ports and are not able to communicate. When either of the nForce4 
gigabit port is connected to a Lan port on another computer with a 
different Lan hardware or to a port on a switch the forcedeth drivers 
detect a carrier and are able to communicate.

It appears that the nForce4 Gigabit ports are not generating a carrier. 
Does the nForce4 not provide standard ethernet ports? If they are 
standard ethernet ports, how do I tell forcedeth to generate a carrier? 
Also how do I get forcedeth to run at a Gigabit?

Thanks for any help,

Best regards,
Arne R. van der Heyde
