I've got a compaq deskpro 575 with and AMD PCNET Family Ethernet Adapter (PCI&ISA). I've installed FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE I'm trying to configure the network card (AMD PCNET), but got the following problem... The network adapter is according to specifications a lnc adapter (FreeBSD agrees with me :-) 1) The first problem: When configuring the kernel two things occur: The network adapter is found twice -- With the PCI detection (a paste follows) Jun 3 09:51:59 asig /kernel: lnc1 rev 22 int a irq 11 on pci0:11 Jun 3 09:51:59 asig /kernel: lnc1: NE2100 (C-LANCE) address 00:80:5f:8a:28:ba -- and with ISA detection (a paste follows) Jun 3 09:52:00 asig /kernel: lnc0 at 0x1000-0x1017 irq 11 drq 0 on eisa slot 1 Jun 3 09:52:00 asig /kernel: lnc0: NE2100 (C-LANCE) address 00:80:5f:8a:28:ba Ofcourse this conflicts (both the same irq, etc.). 2) I've decided to disable the ISA driver. -- Detection goes fine and the following error occures: Jun 3 10:00:02 asig /kernel: lnc0: Initialisation failed The error occurs during the ifconfig. I've read about this error, but did not find a solution. 3) I've decided to disable the PCI driver and enable the ISA driver. This didn't work, since the PCI detects it automatically, so I disabled the complete PCI driver. Dirty solution, but again this fails and the same error polutes my console. Jun 3 10:12:32 asig /kernel: lnc0: Initialisation failed For people who want to see my configuration here's a sneak preview: Problem 1: controller pci0 device lnc0 at isa? port 0x1000 net irq11 drq0 vector lncintr Problem 2: controller pci0 Problem 3: device lnc0 at isa? port 0x1000 net irq11 drq0 vector lncintr Can someone tell me what I've done wrong ? I think the card is BOTH ISA and PCI, this seems to bother FreeBSD alot. Is there a hot fix/sneaky dirty solution to this problem ? Or am I missing something :-) Personally I want to throw out this worthless piece of computing, but since I usually strew up settings, operating systems, hosts, etc. there probebly is a safe and simple solution to this problem.
