[-- Attachment #1 --] At Wed, 11 Oct 2000 it looks like Greg Lehey composed: GL-->Unlike Linux, each BSD Ethernet driver has its own name. You don't GL-->need to look for it; the drivers probe the hardware in turn, and each GL-->finds its own. In case of doubt, check dmesg, but in general ifconfig GL-->-a will show you what the system found. Thanks for the pointers, I have pulled the dmesg and ifconfig from the current OpenBSD-2.7 with the same card that uses the 'tulip' driver for linux. It actually seems to work faster on OpenBSD that is does with Linux. From following the threads here today I may have to reinstall the drive and see how this "full vs half" duplex topic reflects on the FreeBSD install I didn't copy the ifconfig from the 'trickle' install. I have some other cards I can try since you say they autodetect the card every boot. I hope I understood that to be correct, that is cool if it's true. :) -- Bill Schoolcraft http://wiliweld.com PO Box 210076 San Francisco, CA 94121 " saevis tranquillus in undis " [-- Attachment #2 --] /* dmesg snipped */ OpenBSD 2.7 (GENERIC) #25: Sat May 13 18:04:26 MDT 2000 <snipped> dc0 at pci0 dev 15 function 0 "Lite-On PNIC" rev 0x21: irq 10 address 00:a0:cc:3d:77:65 ukphy0 at dc0 phy 1: Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface ukphy0: OUI 0x1e0400, model 0x0000, rev. 0 </snipped> /* ifconfig -a snipped */ <snipped> lo0: flags=8009<UP,LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 32972 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 lo1: flags=8008<LOOPBACK,MULTICAST> mtu 32972 dc0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 media: Ethernet 10baseT status: active inet 192.168.7.5 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.7.255 inet6 fe80::2a0:ccff:fe3d:7765%dc0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 <snipped>help
