I have nForce3 MCP with RTL8201 PHY.
I try to use MAC driver based on nvnetlib.o library http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/nforce/1.0-0261/NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0261.tar.gz
ADAPTER_Open function return code 5
ADAPTERERR_COULD_NOT_INIT_PHY 0x0005
It seem's that nvnetlib.o doesn't know about such PHY (at least phy.h) doesn't contain RTL8201 phy Id. Does something possible in that situation or I need to wait next nVidia driver refresh

Dmitry

I guess you will just have to wait for the refresh with the binary drivers. Personally (being impaitent) I'd try out forcedeth, the new gpl driver for nforce/2/3. I'm sure the developers are intrested in seeing as many nforce3's as possilbe.

See the other post on the board about it.

Good Luck!
