I got Intex LAN card for 180 bucks about 8 months ago and Micr0nsoft XP detects it as RTL8139 which is pretty fine. It also gets automatically detected by SuSE 10.0(dont know whats the kernel version) B)

Positron, can you please confirm whether it works in Suse 10.0? I'm having OpenSuse, doesn't work! 🙁

Hi ,
I recently purchased an intex rtl8139d lan card.
Beaware that this card is not a genuine Realteck card and so will not work
with KERNEL 2.6. Driver provided might compile with 2.4.
The chipset it uses is called sc92031 manufactured by Silan Microelectronics , China.
the windows driver it provides is written to fool the user to show REALTEK8139D on the system menu.

If anyone has this working on kernel 2.6 plz let me know.

the label on the IC read rtc8139 not rtl8139 (rs.250/-)

I just did a bit of browsing on Goole groups and found this post:
http://groups.google.ca/group/alt.os.linux...ad1fffd66ce9081

Basically, try loading one of the following modules:
rtl8139, 8139too, 8139cp

Well, if you haven't tried these, it is worth a shot. If you want to load rtl8139, do it as root with the command:
#> modprobe rtl8139

and then do
#> ifconfig -a

Try this with each of the three modules above and see if your NIC is listed then.

GL.

FATAL: rtl8139 : module not found

What about the other two modules?
 
Yesterday, I bought this Intex silan 92031 network card for Rs.180.
The mini-cd that came with it had only the windows drivers.
When I googled for linux drivers, I cames across sl_linux.tgz , but this will only compile for Kernel 2.4/2.5 and not for the latest 2.6.

I have modified the driver source files to compile the kernel module( .ko) for kernel 2.6
Download it from: http://gurukumara.googlepages.com/sc92031_2.6.tar.gz

I have also updated the readme file. Check it out! 🙂

Are you sure you posted updated version of tar ball, because what I got from the above link is no way a 2.6 module source.
 
updated makefile and little bit of source for sc92031 to get it build and loaded in kernel 2.6.18.
Well whole driver could be written lots less messy but I don't have the relevant card and maybe not much interest 😛.
Maybe if there is large user base of this card then I might would give a try.

Cesar Eduardo Barros [cesarb@cesarb.net] has written a driver for this that will most probably go in the 2.6.21 kernel.

The driver patch is available at: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/52387

Patch works with 2.6.20 for me ...

Sachin
