<font color="#333333"><font size="2"><font face="verdana,sans-serif">Hello all, <br><br></font></font></font>I would like to use the IgH EtherCAT Master for Linux, but I have one (simple) question. Maybe is more related to Linux, but I hope any of you can help me.<br>
Right now, I am using Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) with kernel 2.6.32 and<br>Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller<br>I downloaded the version 1.4.0 of the EtherCAT Master, and (as expected for the table of supported HW in the website) I got this message when I try to run ./configure:<br>
<br>checking for Linux kernel sources... /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-35-generic-pae (Kernel 2.6.32-35-generic-pae)<br>checking for kernel for 8139too driver... configure: error: kernel 2.6.32 not available for 8139too driver!<br>
<br>I was trying to go back to an older kernel (2.6.24) without success. I have read that Lucid distribution only supports from 2.6.32<font color="#333333"><font size="2"><font face="verdana,sans-serif">, but what I see is that EtherLab works only up to kernel 2.6.31.<br>
My question is, which Linux distribution and kernel would you recommend me to use according to my HW for a proper behaviour of the Master?<br><br>Thanks in advance, <br><br>Angel.<br></font></font></font>
