You do *not* want to say things like that within earshot :of me. Describe the cards better. Describe how you came to the :conclusion that they aren't supported. What chip is on them? If it's :the LC82C115 then these are the LNE100TX Version 2.0 with Wake On LAN, :and they *are* supported: you need to use the if_dc driver. It should :be in the GENERIC kernel. This same driver now also supports the older :LNE100TX with the 82c168/82c169 PNIC chips. In fact the dc driver now :supports all of the DEC tulip workalike chipsets. (Well, except for :the Winbond W89C840F, which is still supported by the wb driver.) The :really really old LNE100TX cards were based on the DEC 21140, and :LinkSys doesn't sell those anymore, so I doubt you have one of those. : :-Bill : :-- :============================================================================= :-Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager, Master of Unix-Fu Heh heh. Indeed, they are LNE100TX V2.0 cards. I'll try adding 'dc' in. If it works, can I add a comment about 'LNE100TX' cards to the comments in LINT for 'dc'? -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
