That is the right device to use. zp0 is a kludge that will die in 4.0 if I have my way. : It is able to get its DHCP address and was briefly able to start : FTP retrieval from ftp.freebsd.org, but speed was about 1KB/second : on a 1.5Mbps DSL line. Subsequent attempts caused it to fail even : resolving other ftp*.freebsd.org names despite the fact that its : nameserver is on the same LAN. This is the classic "I didn't assign the right IRQ to the pccard" problem. : I'd imagine the 3c589 is a fairly popular card and if ep0 can't : drive it, then zp0 should certainly be included in the pccard : floppy distro. No. pccard floppy is doing the right thing. It is well known that the ep driver can drive the 3c589, since 10000 of people are using it to do just that as well as myself :-) Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
