Well, I think if u like hard work, that's the best way of doing it.. Or u can grab the NIC config software, and once u start it up, if u have to cards that is conflicting it will tell u, that 2 cards are conflicting, but then u have to go back to the procedure, of swapping the card individualy to see which is which...
Are u using ISA or PCI cards (I would like to think that RTL8139 cards are mostly PCI) What u can do, is tell the bios that u don't have PnP software, and the bios would automaticlly assign the IRQs... But my best bet, do the NIC swapping one by one, then u'll see exactly what's wrong.. Also while at it, make sure the NIC is inserted properly in the SLOT > -----Original Message----- > From: Stephen Lee [mailto:splee@;plexio.com] > Sent: Friday, November 15, 2002 08:54 > To: Leaf-user > Subject: RE: [leaf-user] 4 nics with Bering > > > Is there anyway of telling if the 4th nic has the same > address as one of the other ones in the message logs or do I > have to physically swap cards around to find out? dmesg only > shows 3 nics detected, all with different addresses. > > Stephen > > On Thu, 2002-11-14 at 23:09, Reginald R.
