Hi,
I got recently some old ISA/PCI motherboards (UM8810P) and 486-DX CPUs.

I took some cheap NE2000 clone for PCI (RealTek 8029). Those worked ok
for me sofar...
I installed fbsd 3.1 Stable.

Now, on booting the card comes up alright:

...
ed1: <NE2000 PCI Ethernet (RealTek 8029)> rev 0x00 int a irq 12 on
pci0.13.0
ed1: adress 00:40:05:6c:9d:84, type NE2000 16bit
...

With ifconfig I see the card also. Everyting is connected fine.
Now, if I try a ping, I get in the syslog:
ed1: Device Timeout

Can I do something? Or do I have to buy better cards?
(A 3Com works well...)

Any help appreciated!

-Orm
