Got a cardbus card that's giving you bad ethernet addresses of the form 00:80:00:80:00 or 80:00:80:00:80 that 'dc' recognizes? If so, you should try this patch. It fixes them by doing autosizing of the srom. This code is ported from OpenBSD, but they got it (or the technique) from NetBSD's tulip driver. aaron@openbsd.org told me ages ago I needed to do this, but only in vague terms. This turns the following cards in my collection into working cards: NetGear FA510 Linksys PCMPC200 Kingston KE-CB4TX (aka Fast EtheRx CardBus PC Card) http://people.freebsd.org/~imp/patch-dc.20020926 If you have a dc based card, please write me if you try this patch. I'm interested in all the cases: working -> working working -> failed failed -> working failed -> failed (unless you have a Xircom CardBus card) Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
