Why don't you give us the tc line? Are we equipped with crystal
balls?
The RTNETLINK message usually means that you are attempting to use a
qdisc that is nowhere in your kernel/modules, but if you don't tell us
WTF you did then we cannot tell you WTF tc fails.
Go get Devik's tc and try it. If that works, drop back to the 2.6.8
iproute2, being sure you compile it using /usr/src/linux not
/usr/include. If Devik's tc fails, fix your kernel .config.
If none of that works, post a real question to the LARTC mailing
list.
