HI!
I have configured a Ethernet driver in linux-2.6.24.2 kernel version. The interface comes up and I can see the 'eth0' interface when i do 'ifconfig -a'.
However when I try to configure the network interface it always says 'eth0 link off'. Can some one please point me to the problem and tell me at what stage this message is coming from?
regards
-Nitin

Is the interface up? Discover using 'ifconfig ethX | grep UP'

What does "configure" mean in this context ? What is the result of
'ethtool -t ethX' ?
