Ultra 1 - second ethernet not recognized

[Robert Waldner]

Hi!

I have a Sun Ultra1[0] here, and want to make a firewall out of it.
 So I put in a second ethernet, SBus, 270-1881-02 rev 1 (AUI/BNC),
 but the kernel doesn't seem to recognize it (eg only eth0 shows up
 in dmesg[1]).

A test net via OpenBoot shows
.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Using AUI Ethernet Interface
 Internal loopback test -- succeeded.   
 External loopback test -- Lost Carrier  (transceiver cable problem?)   
send failed.

Using TP Ethernet Interface 
 Internal loopback test -- succeeded.   
 External loopback test -- succeeded.  
.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

which looks suspiciously like it's only the on-board interface (one 
 ethernet, AUI/TP, is built in).

Is there a magic incantation I have to make (some module to load),
 or does that smell like the magic smoke has escaped this card?
 Any pointers appreciated.

0: Sun Ultra 1 SBus (UltraSPARC 143MHz), No Keyboard
   
OpenBoot 3.11, 96 MB memory installed, Serial #7745258. 
Ethernet address 8:0:20:76:2e:ea, Host ID: 80762eea.

1: sunlance.c:v2.00 11/Sep/99 Miguel de Icaza ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 
eth0: LANCE 08:00:20:76:2e:ea   
eth0: using auto-carrier-detection. 

cheers,
rw

What kind of card is it? BigMac?  Hme?  Another lance card?  Sbus cards
can be hard to seat, perhaps you should try and reseat it.

How can I tell what kind of card it is? I've no idea (got it for 
 free) ...

Reseating et al I've already tried, of course.
