Re: Detect hardware changes
For the record, I just swapped a ZYNX 345 for a Linksys EG-1032 and have been hit by this. Given the discussion, I have no idea where to start. I do have various pieces of data (appended) which may help. 1) boot probes 2) output of kldstat 3) output of pciconf 4) screen capture of trying to config things manually My kernel config has miibus, but neither nge or sk in the expectation the card would attract the right module in the boot process. (Which worked for the old de.) Actually I do have a place to start: what is the correct driver? This page: http://wwwhttp://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.0R/hardware-i386.html#ETHERNET puts the EG-1032 under both nge and sk Robert Huff boot probes Jan 2 23:24:22 jerusalem kernel: Copyright (c) 1992-2006 The FreeBSD Project.

Any ideas? Well, it *does* say why, you just don't understand what it is saying. Nor do I ;-) I suggest you try on the hardware list, try filing a PR, or be bold and email the author of the driver. PR is probably the recommended route, but don't quote me. Just to be clear, if the device is not attaching then nothing you do with pciconf or in any config file will make any difference. You could also try: google for your specific error rid 0x10 is ioport If this is 5.4, try downloading and booting from 6.0 CD (just CD1 should be required) and see if that spots it. When you get into sysinstall you can hit Pause then Page Up to see the boot log. If this is 6.0 then vice versa! Your card is listed as apparently 5.4 compatible, but manufacturers just go and change things so cards which worked in one revision, fail in another. --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No, actually the sk driver, look at the first line of pciconfig output. ifconfig -a should list a network card called skc0 which you just need to configure. If all you need is dhcp then just run dhclient skc0. Add the device to rc.conf for it to work on boot. Use man rc.conf for help or copy the line for the xl0 network card you already have. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ipconfig -a doesn't show the skc0 device which I believe is my ultimate problem. Can I infer from your earlier message that this means the sk module is not being loaded or is not available? How can I check to see if the loadable module is installed? Thanks, Keith Hello Keith skc0 is the controller. You should see sk0 in ifconfig -a. Can you please show us the output of ifconfig -a and rc.conf.

RE: Detect hardware changes
I realized I had the problem when ifconfig did not pickup the network card after a reboot. I went ahead and ran pciconf -lv like you suggested and the relevant output looks like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:9:0: class=0x02 card=0x00241737 chip=0x10321737 rev=0x10 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Linksys' device = 'EG1032 Gigabit Ethernet' class= network subclass = ethernet [EMAIL PROTECTED]:12:0: class=0x02 card=0x00c71028 chip=0x920010b7 rev=0x78 hdr=0x00 vendor = '3COM Corp, Networking Division' device = '3C905C-TX Fast EtherLink for PC Management NIC' class= network subclass = ethernet The new NIC that I added is the first one and the old NIC is the second. It seems that the system is detecting it fine but ifconfig still does not display it and there does not appear to be a dev node for it as well. I added the appropriate line in rc.conf and rebooted the system hoping that would cause something to update properly but there was no change. Are there additional steps that have to be taken?

RE: Detect hardware changes
I believe so but for some reason it is still not showing up in ifconfig or as a dev node.

Re: Detect hardware changes
Have you compiled a custom kernel? Do you have the nge driver included in that kernel? * On 08/12/05 15:14 -0600, Keith Bottner wrote: I believe so but for some reason it is still not showing up in ifconfig or as a dev node.
