Hi, i'm currently trying to set up a FreeBSD box (IBM PC 360, Pentium Pro, 128MB, Matrox & Adaptec PCI, no ISA cards)in a TokenRing LAN. Ok, i'm using the March 2000 FreeBSD 4.0 distribution and it seems to me that all the necessary sources for Olicom support are there - compiled a new kernel with support for Olicom NICs: > # PCI Token-Ring NICs > device oltr0 # Olicom OC-3137 and alike > pseudo-device token # TokenRing support > pseudo-device ether # Ethernet support And now there're these strange error messages during boot: > May 31 13:21:47 Continuity /kernel: oltr0: <Olicom PCI/II 16/4 Adapter (OC-3137)> port 0xff00-0xff3f irq 9 at device 10.0 on pci0 > May 31 13:21:47 Continuity /kernel: oltr0: mac address [00:00:00:00:00:00] > May 31 13:21:47 Continuity /kernel: oltr0: Adapter not supported by low level driver. I tried a couple of different Olicom NICs - OC-3136 or OC-3137 both produce this kind of error, while a OC-3140 RapidFire doesn't work at all - contrary to what the source-comments say!?! Any ideas?!? Thanx, Steffen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
