Realtek 8139 driver for Coherent 4.2.10
21.6.2006
News:
our ftp
client command works reliably , including download of gzipped
files (tested with vsFTPd 2.x)
download
of gzipped files in lynx 2.8.3 works reliably
our
fetchmail tested OK with dovecot POP3 server
chip
version recognition works fine
test
environment : cable television (dhcp) connection 1500 Kbits
down/250 Kbits up
alpha
testing finished , our udp/tcp subsystem + rtl8139 driver are
usable and useful
beta
testing started, goal : increased stability and performance, LAN
testing
16.4.2007
ftp :
get, put , delete, ls commands work reliably
cable
television dhcp 3000/500 Kbits connection works even better
gopher
in lynx2-8-3 works fine including gopher download(of text and
gzipped files(.z, .gz,.tgz ))
news(reading)
in lynx2-8-1 works fine
28.4.2007
small
http server implemented, good for testing: because our network
subsystem does not have loopback feature, it can be used to test
lynx-www server connection on one PC(via dhcp).
tested
cards : 8139c(full duplex), 8139d(half duplex). Should work on
8139c+ too.
Possible
applications :
embedded
systems, it does not mean we want to port Coherent to ARM
processors for example, but we mean dedicated applications, for
example robots using Intel/AMD proccessors etc, or Intel
machines controlling external microcontroller applications
connected to PC.
10.6.2007
Local
network (twisted-pair with switch/hub) test (LAN)
On
average 700 KB/s(5.6 Mbits/s) for big files(~100 MB) on local
network, both PC using Realtek 8139(c,d), full/half duplex or
both full/full via simple 10 Mbits switch
Above
speed achieved using lynx and our http server , being good
method of file transfer between Coherent boxes
200-300
KB/s achieved (lynx file download) on cable modem with 3000
Kb/s(in) and 500Kb/s (out).Result comparable to that what I get
on Linux/Solaris10.
ifconfig
command and arp command implemented , are used in LAN setup
7.8.2007
news
posting/replying fixed, works fine in lynx2-8-1
mail
sending with mutt works , it uses our sendmail command (tested
with ESMTP, ESMTP/Postix(Debian))
fetchmail
tested once again, works reliably with POP3 dovecot, usually it
works in background as daemon
22.9.2007
telnet
(inetutils 1.4.x) finally works fine, support for 8 bit
builds
and works with both -DTERMCAP or -DUSE_TERMIO flags.
tested
in cable television connection with Solaris 10 x86 telnet
service(inetadm -e telnet) : mc in color mode works fine, vi
editor works fine, ps -A etc, probably lynx and mutt work fine.
tested
in cable television connection with nethack game server, one can
really play this amusing game, it is my number three favorite
after xtetris and xboard.
Tested
in cable television connection with Linux Aurox 9(clone of
RedHat) telnet service: mc, lynx, pine, vim and mutt work fine.
I can even play nethack game from this remote Linux. WOW , “top”
works too, looks like in Linux.Linux box and Coherent are
connected to the same switch and cable modem(my private LAN).
has
acceptable speed
it
means it can be used with Telnet terminal server , as a terminal
to remote Solaris10
best
results with vt220 terminal TERM setting, but works with vt100
too, it does not work with ansipc setting.
x3270 3.1.1/3.3.7 works
fine.c3270(curses client) works fine(wow,22.5.2008).I have spent
8 years in front of green 3270 terminal, so it is a pleasure to
see it in Coherent again. Check this.Screenshot

November the
30 th 2008
openSSH
1.2.2 ported, it supports protocol version 1.5.Tested with
openSSH 1.2.2 sshd server running in Linux.Nowadays mostly newer
version protocol 2 is used, but it is not a problem to have both
sshd servers running in Linux or Solaris system.Tested
configuration was the following : ssh client behind the hardware
router with hardware firewall and sshd server running behind the
software iptables firewall. Doubly secure combination.Quite
stable.One can observe top program on the other Linux side for
hours.
Above means that openSSL was
ported , version 0.9.6a.For example small demo cli works fine
with serv demo running in Linux.
December the 17th 2008
pop,pops,imap,imaps,iconv
support enabled in our previously ported mutt 1,4i.
imaps secure protocol in
mutt tested with our University imap server running in Linux
.Stable and fast.I like it.
January the 20 th 2009
iso-8859-2 support ,mostly
for mutt, designed and implemented. It allows to send mails
using Polish Latin2 letters , which can be shared as expected
with Linux/Solaris world.Very important to make mutt useful for
me.It required patch of virtual nonloadable console driver vtkb
and special program to load Polish latin2 fonts , fonts which I
have designed myself about 14 years ago.
June, 2009
openSSH 2.1.1.p4, with
support for 2/1.5 protocols, tested with newest
Fedora,Debian,FreeBSD, Solaris10 sshd servers
lynx 2.8.6rel4 , with https
support, really colorful (color styles); http, news(nntp) and
gopher work fine.
Download speed in lynx the
same as in Linux/Solaris using 3COM 9xx and the same cable TV
connection; PC's connected to router , which in itself was
connected to GrandStream SIP phone working as switch, which in
itself was connected to cable TV modem
BTW , driver works fine in 10/100 Mbit modes
