I've got a similar setting
my kernel config file has
controller pci0
and
device lnc0 at isa? port 0x280 net irq 10 drq 0 vector lncintr
I believe the second line is superfluous : the PCI driver detects all by itself
all its devices.
the dmesg output gives :
lnc1 <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> rev 2 int a irq 9 on pci0:23
lnc1: PCnet-32 VL-Bus address 08:00:09:3b:fd:1d
.....
lnc0 not found at 0x280
the lnc1 device is found anyway, and the message is wrong, it is a PCI adapter
and not a VL-Bus device (nevertheless, it works)
you'll have to add something like this to /etc/rc.conf
network_interfaces="lnc1 lo0 ed0 lp0" #
^^^^ and not lnc0
....
ifconfig_lnc1="inet 155.132.135.90 netmask 255.255.255.0"
it should make do

Dear People,
I don't know if this is the right mailinglist, but I think this belongs
here (or with hardware).
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 <PCNet/PCI Ethernet adapter> 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.
TIA & TTUL,
Mike Crawfurd.
