Hi, Corona688:

I writed a rtl8139 device driver and now I am debugging it. The initiating, openning, stopping and interrupting part of this driver have already passed.

That information should have been disclosed in your first post.

Well, unless you provide us the code, there is not much we can do to assist you.

Hi, all:

thanks a lot!

I have already resolved the problem! Since I stop the device queue under wrong conditions my driver cannot send the messages out! Now everything is OK.

thanks!
