Just to bring the list up to date, I went onsite, popped the case open, and guess what I saw.. SUPER X5DP8-G2 REV 1.2 rather than X5DL8-GG, so it looks like the vendor pulled a fast one. spec sheet on that lists onboard Intel 82546EB dual port GigE, but note that I've already got one single port Pro/1000XT and one dual port Pro/1000MT in there, so I should've been seeing 5 em rather than 3. Turned out the MT was the one that was hiding, but after a bit more testing, I managed to get everything to appear by turning down the first 3 PCI slots to 33mhz from 133, 100, 100. I then set speed back to auto, it autosensed 133, 100, 100, and everything showed up again. Did a few more reboots, and it seems to be OK. big thanks to everyone, especially mark for making me verify whether reality actually matched documentation :) John On Wed, 28 May 2003, Doug White wrote: > On Fri, 23 May 2003, Tom Samplonius wrote: > > > I don't know about Supermicro, but ASUS uses Broadcom chips with an > > Intel chipset on at least one workstation board: > > > > http://usa.asus.com/prog/spec.asp?langs=09&m=P4G8X%20Deluxe > > Okay so the crack pipe is being passed around :) > > And what happened to my pciconf -lv output? :) > > > > Also, 'pciconf -lv' output is more useful, it'll print the text strings > > > and make identifying the proper ID much easier. > > -- > Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve > dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org >
