I realized that in your earlier mail, you claimed that the card included a Linux driver called rtl8139.c, so it can't be a VIA Rhine. Just to be clear: - D-Link DFE-530TX == VIA Rhine II (vr driver) - D-Link DFE-530TX+ == RealTek 8139 (rl driver) - D-Link DFE-540TX == Macronix 98715 (dc driver) - D-Link DFE-550TX == Sundance Technologies ST201 (ste driver) This is a 530TX+ we're talking about here, correct? > I appreciate the assistance, and will continue to do whatever you all > suggest may help (short of packing up the system and FedExing it to you to > work on). I'm learning a lot from this, and hopefully the result is a > driver that can handle one more oddball special case. About the only thing I can do is obtain a card like yours and play with it. If you can show me a link to the exact card that you have on the D-Link web site, I can see what I can do about getting BSDi to buy me one. The alternative is for you to stick a second card in that machine which does work, then put it on the net and give me remote access to it so I can debug it myself. This may not be possible for technical or political reasons however. -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
