OK, I tracked it down to a hub issue.  I get the duplicate address error only 
when I hooked the ethernet cable to a hub.
I tried it on 2 hubs (Netgear and D-link) and the same duplicate address 
problem occurs.  However when I hooked a
cross-over cable from the board directory to the Fedora 4 PC, I no longer get 
the duplicate error.  Weird thing is that
version 1.00 doesn't have this problem with the hub.  Oh well, for now I'll 
just have to use a cross-over cable without
the hub.  Sorry everyone for flooding this group with this little problem of 
mine.

Oops, never mind, I see the driver in 1.10's kernel (ti_davinci_emac 
subdirectory was removed and replaced by davinci_emac* files in 

the drivers/net directory).  I'm just going 
crazy over this networking issue! =(

Subject: Re: Problems after updating to DVEVM 1.10



Hi, I just did a difference listing between the kernel (2.6.10_mvl402) in DVEVM 
version 1.00 and the kernel (2.6.10_mvl401-davinci_evm) in DVEVM version 1.10 
and found that the ethernet ti_davinci_emac driver doesn't exist in version 
1.10.  Could this be why I'm getting the duplicate address issue with version 
1.10 kernel?  What driver is it using in 1.10? The network interface (eth0) in 
version 1.10 keeps giving me errors (may due to the ICMPv6 NA duplicate address 
issue).  I guess I may have to use the kernel source of 1.00 in version 1.10.

I got some more details on my problems below.  Please disregard problem 2 
because I'm able to run the demos fine via the shell.  For problem number 1, it 
seems like the ethernet driver changed from 1.00 to 1.10.  The error I'm 
getting is "ICMPv6 NA: someone advertises our address on eth0!".  I googled it 
and found a thread for another ethernet driver that mentioned somehow the 
interface is seeing itself and complaining of a duplicate address: 
http://www.bughost.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=265.  Anyone see this problem 
before?



Regards,

Andy

Subject: Problems after updating to DVEVM 1.10



OK, I followed the instructions exactly (per postings to group) to update my 
DVEVM to version 1.10 but I still have problems.  I used restore_1_10_00_30.tar 
to update the filesystem in /dev/hda1; I used uImage in the same restore tar 
file to update the kernel at 0x02050000; I used u-boot.bin in 
u-boot-upgrade.tar to upgrade u-boot at 0x02000000; and I flipped the S3-4 
switch to "on".  Here are my problems:



1) When the kernel boots up, I see the following ethernet warning:

        NET: Registered protocol family 10

        IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver

        eth0: duplicate address detected!

   Now the ethernet interface is very slow (down to 8Kb/s when using the wget 
command); I don't know why I'm having this problem; the only thing connected to 
the DaVinci board my Fedora 4 PC and I've verified the address is not the same 
as that of the board.

2) When the demo screen shows up, I can't move the cursor on the remote control 
to select "Encode", "Decode", or "Third Party ...", it stays at "Encode + 
Decode" only.  



Can someone please help?  Am I doing something wrong.   Thanks!



Regards,

Andy
