Hi, Does anybody manage to make the TSE run under uClinux ? I try what I read on the wiki, but I can't get a ping from or to the dev board (FPGA Dev kit 3c120). Do I have to use the opencore 10/...

16 years ago --- Quote Start --- Hi, I am also working on a 3C120 Development board ethernet design on a Nios2 running uClinux. With the Tripple Speed Ethernet option (the one that is said to work) - I get a build error at atse.c line 1485, saying it cant find the "get_stats" field in the Network Device descriptor. Does anyone know what would cause this? With the Triple Speed Ethernet option ...the design builds but when I download the terminal reports that the kernel has successfully uncompressed and starting but it just hangs there. If I disable the Triple Speed Mac - the sash shell goes through to prompt. Does anyone know what might cause this sort of effect? --- Quote End --- Hi, well... I'm working on a Stratix III DSP dev. kit with the same Marvell chip. I got it to work only on interniche but now I'd like to make it work with uClinux. If I use all the default settings, linux boots with no problems (I'm using the no-mmu version for now). If I add any of the TSE option (any of the two, the Altera experimental one or the SLS one, no difference) I get the "Uncompressing linux... Now booting" message and then it freezes. I have no idea why this doesn't work, but I assume it's not related to the hardware design because the very same design works well with interniche tcp/ip. Anyone has an idea why this is happening or got the Stratix III to work under uClinux? Thanks Bye mantoz
