To: FreeBSD-hackers@freebsd.org (FreeBSD-hackers) Date: Tue, 3 Jun 1997 12:13:22 +0200 (MET DST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL28 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I've got a network with bothe an old 8 bit smc 8003 card on it and a Digital DC21041 on it. When I have data transfers going on from the DEC card to the SMC card, I am seeing input errors on the SMC card. Is this a known incompatibility? The erros are not all equal. I'm seeing : 81, 86, a1, 21 and 1 (see if_edreg.h at 'Receiver Status Register (RSR) definitions' for an explanation of these errors). -Guido
