Hello, I'm having trouble getting the above mentioned NE2000 compat. card to work in a new FreeBSD 2.0 system. The card is configured with base_port at 0x300, and IRQ 5. It seems to be probed correctly and is detected as a 16 bit card (correct). The machine is relatively empty, and I'm sure there is no other card installed on conflicting addresses/IRQ's. The machine is a 386/25 with 4MB mem. (Small I know, but it won't be running a Window sys...) Symptoms: "ping's" to other machines on the network seem fine - no dropped packets or unreasonable delays. "telnet" out works ok for short (2 minutes) periods, and then freezes. No characters typed on console appear on screen. ^C or ^D does nothing. ^\ causes seg fault (only way to exit...) "ftp" works (and fails) the same as telnet. I only have the minimal binaries installed... I'm trying to ftp the bindist without much luck as you can imagine... Thanks for ANY help! --clark
