Yes, but given the way PCI IDs work, it's not at all unexpected. Carving that Rosetta stone of ID-to-driver mappings is a lifetime effort for _all_ OS vendors and driver writers. At least we're not alone in this. So, if you've found that it works (as expected), then file a bug. We ought to have as many known-to-work IDs present as we can. (If you can't, contact me off-line, I'll file one for you.) -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
