Card works fine but I'm getting the following in dmesg: ep0: <3Com 3C509-TPO EtherLink III> at port 0x300-0x30f irq 10 on isa0 ep0: eeprom failed to come ready. ep0: eeprom failed to come ready. ep0: eeprom failed to come ready. ep0: eeprom failed to come ready. ep0: eeprom failed to come ready. ep0: Ethernet address 00:00:00:00:00:00 [snip] ep1: <3Com 3C509B-TPO EtherLink III (PnP)> at port 0x210-0x21f irq 9 on isa0 This is an old card. Notice it is using two IRQs ... annoyingly. EP1 is the active link and it works fine. EP0 according to ifconfig is "media: Ethernet 10base2/BNC". Funny, this card doesn't have a BNC connector on it ... only RJ45. So, is there a way to somehow deactivate the ep0 interface in the kernel so that it doesn't show up anymore and I get my IRQ 10 back ? Or maybe does this card have a jumper I can set to deactivate the BNC capability this card apparently has ? (I haven't checked the 3Com site for doco YET on this ... figured I'd ask here and maybe get a straight answer.) - ........................................................ ......... ..- -. .. -..- .-. ..- .-.. . ... ............ .-- .. -. -... .-.. --- .-- ... -.. .-. --- --- .-.. ...
