| Summary | 0001416: Need tulip driver for DEC quad core NIC | ||||
| Description | Ethernet controller [0200]: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 [1011:0019] (rev 41) | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | lspci sees the device but there is no driver. | ||||
| Additional Information | It seems that there is a tulip driver fRHEL/CentOs 7, not for 8/9 | ||||
| Tags | tulip | ||||

|
As you say, the tulip driver exists for RHEL7 but is disabled in RHEL 8 & 9. Please can you confirm which release you need it for, or both? |
|
|
Thank you. I need it for RHEL 9. Appreciate it. |
|
|
Thanks. I'll see if we can package you the driver for el9 and post back here once done. |
|
|
Packages have been built for el9 and have been uploaded to the elrepo repository. The following packages should be available on mirror sites shortly: kmod-tulip-0.0-1.el9_3.elrepo.src.rpm kmod-tulip-0.0-1.el9_3.elrepo.x86_64.rpm Please can you test and feed back if the package works as expected for you. Thanks |

It doesn't look like you are running a RHEL9 kernel. The latest RHEL9 kernel is: $ uname -a Linux Build64R9 5.14.0-362.13.1.el9_3.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Nov 24 01:57:57 EST 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux If you are running CentOS Stream, elrepo kmods are not supported. You would have to ask the kmods SIG at the CentOS Project to provide drivers for you as the CentOS Stream kernel is not compatible with the RHEL kernel. |

Thanks a LOT. I tested on Rocky and it seems to work.....I have some n/w issues which prevent me from doing an exhaustive test, however, I can see the interfaces in "ip a". I appreciate all that you do. |
|
|
Tried bringing up the interfaces, unsuccessful.... |
|
|
Got it working. Thanks for bearing with me. I appreciate it. |
|

Fab. Thanks for confirming it's working for you. I'll mark this as resolved. Please open a new ticket if you have any issues. |
