Hi,
Solaris snv_110 does not like my 3Com Etherlink PCMCIA card anymore:
$ uname -a

[r...@sol10 Sat Apr 11 19:11:25 ~ ]
in /var/adm/messages I can see this messages:

What I found out until now is that there are multiple entries for the
pcelx in /etc/minor_perm:
[r...@sol10 Sat Apr 11 19:11:07 ~ ]
$ grep pcelx /etc/minor_perm
clone:pcelx 0666 root sys
pcelx:* 0666 root sys
pcelx:* 0666 root sys
But I don't know if that is a problem.
How can I get this card to work in Solaris snv110 ? It did work with
an earlier release of Solaris.
prtconf -vp would be more helpful.
We really should have an open source GLDv3 version of the pcelx
driver... I haven't had time to look at it, and I no longer have the
necessary 3com hardware....
