All the LEDs at the connector are constantly blinking (slowly) while the card never gets to the state of being useful. Trying to operate the card all one will get is "/kernel: edN: device timeout" lines in /var/llog/messages. >How-To-Repeat: I've seen this behaviour with -CURRENT snapshot boot floppies as of early January as well as on -STABLE as of mid January. Recent threads in -current show that the problem still exists (see Julian Elischer's message <3A8AA8D4.A3E73136@elischer.org>). And I haven't seen any related commits since the ed(4) extension with the Linksys flag on December 18th (-CURRENT) or January 17th (-STABLE). >Fix: http://www.freebsddiary.org/last-netgear.html talks about an fa_select.c tool to force media selection while the card seems to fail in negotiating this. Tests proved the tool to make the above card work. And I assume it does for Netgear's FA410TX, too. Since I didn't like the need to hardcode and compile the i/o address into the utility, I changed the code a little bit to scan command line options (see the patch below, Q&D for minimal diffs). To further reduce manual action I made pccardd(8) resolve the i/o address in pccard.conf just like it does with the device name and ethernet address (another patch below; and one could think of exporting even more potentially useful data). So one can have pccardd detect the card's presence and have it run fa_select on it before doing ifconfig(8) actions. The pccard.conf code snippet (third part) has the glue logic. I'm aware of the fact that the doc patches are missing, but I just wanted that thing to work. UNIX is not nearly the same when the machine lacks networking support! :> --- fa_select.c.orig Thu Feb 15 23:29:43 2001 +++ fa_select.c.work Thu Feb 15 23:29:53 2001 @@ -12,7 +12,7 @@ #include <unistd.h> #include <machine/sysarch.h> -#define BASE_ADDR 0x240 /* replace with the card base address */ +#define BASE_ADDR_DFLT 0x240 /* fallback */ inline unsigned char @@ -159,24 +170,92 @@ write_bit(port, 1); return 0; } + +char * +mediatext(int m) +{ + switch(m) { + case 0 : return "10BaseT" ; break; + case 1 : return "10BaseT FD" ; break; + case 2 : return "100BaseT" ; break; + default: return "100BaseT FD"; break; + } +} + int main(int argc, char **argv) { - int skfd, i, sub; + int skfd, sub; struct ifreq ifr; + int c; + int BASE_ADDR = BASE_ADDR_DFLT; + char *iface = NULL; + int media = 0; + int vflag = 0; + int tflag = 0; + +#if defined(DEBUG) + vflag++; +#endif + + /* usual getopt loop */ + while (-1 != (c = getopt(argc, argv, "b:i:m:tv"))) { + switch(c) { + case 'b': + BASE_ADDR = strtoul(optarg, NULL, 0); + break; + case 'i': + iface = optarg; + break; + case 'm': + media = atoi(optarg); + break; + case 't': + tflag++; + break; + case 'v': + vflag++; + break; + default: + exit(1); + } + } + + /* "traditional" (positional) interpretation */ + if (optind < argc) { + iface = argv[optind]; + optind++; + } + if (optind < argc) { + media = atoi(argv[optind]); + optind++; + } + + /* sanity check */ + if (optind < argc) + err(1, "too many parameters"); + if (! iface) + err(1, "no interface"); + if (!
