PACMAN -Syu can not be run and the current system is very outdated running this will disable the function of the system cause ZFS. it will stop working and that's the only reason i'm not doing it. anyway...
yuanley AQC113-x1 (they use marvel AQC113 driver on windows)
i just got my self 10 gb cards and i want to do a direct connection with another windows pc.
it seems to be plug and play i now have these.
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: enp9s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP mo de DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether a8:a1:59:07:dd:d1 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: enp6s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT gro up default qlen 1000
link/ether 1a:4b:24:c6:c6:80 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ffenp6s0 should be the new card and no new driver seems to be needed nice
enps9s0 uses this:
/etc/netctl/ethernet-dhcp
Description='A basic dhcp ethernet connection'
Interface=enp9s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=dhcp
sDHCPClient=dhcpcd
#DHCPReleaseOnStop=no
## for DHCPv6
#IP6=dhcp
#DHCP6Client=dhclient
## for IPv6 autoconfiguration
#IP6=statelessand this works fine
i tried enps6s0 with this:
/etc/netctl/10gb
Description='crossover'
Interface=enp6s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=static
Address=('192.168.1.101/24')
Gateway='10.1.10.1'
DNS=('10.1.10.1')1by1 copy with a changed ip address
this is supposed to be a simple crossover connection no DHCP no switch no nothing.
so i run this
systemctl status netctl@10gb.service

Nov 11 15:17:52 Gundam2 systemd[1]: Failed to start Networking for netctl profile 10gb.so i'm assuming now that enp6s0 is not the new card but something different.
i need to install drivers which is going to be interesting.
crossover connection needs special setup or are not supported by netctl the netctl arch wiki page doesn't have the word crossover.
the information that the cards can do auto crossover like any adapter produce in the last 10 years is false and i need a crossover cable.
any ideas?

it wants a package called build-essential which is maybe base-devel because we can not have nice things i guess.
Building and Installation
=========================
To manually build this driver:
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Make sure you have all the packages required to build a standalone kernel
module.
On a debian-based systems you should at least install the following packages:
sudo apt install linux-headers build-essential
2. Move the base driver tar file to the directory of your choice.
For example, use /home/username/aquantia.
Untar/unzip archive:
cd ~/aquantia
tar zxf Aquantia-AQtion-x.y.z.tar.gz
3. Change to the driver src directory:
cd Aquantia-AQtion-x.y.z/
NB! Make sure that pathname doesn't contain whitespaces and special characters
(e.g. brackets), because kernel build system doesn't support such paths
unfortunately and the build will fail.
4. Compile the driver module:
make
5. Unload the driver, if an older version is in use:
sudo rmmod atlantic
5. Load the dependencies and the module itself:
sudo make load
7. Install the driver
sudo make installthe driver with that instruction is in atlantic.tar.gz not what ever they talk about and the decompressed archive is in Linux not what ever they talk about.
