[leaf-user] Bering uClib does not find NICs
After using my firewall for some time on Dachstein, I wanted to upgrade to Bering because it has some features I can't find for Dachstein - such as a time server. So, seeing Bering uClib seems to be getting all the attention these days, I tried it, but had no luck in getting it to recognize my NICs. One is a PCI Surecom EP325 - ne2000 compatible - so I selected 8390.o and ne2k-pci.o. The other is an old IBM (Lan/Tastic based) NIC - so I used ne.o & io=0x300 (as per setup). When I use Bering 1.2 with the same modules selected and it does find them. What gives? What am I missing. Another thing: my old Dachstein FW uses older Cabletron E2100 and SMC-Ultra NICs, again, using Bering 1.2 seems to find them given the proper modules, while Bering uClib does not - using the same modules.

RE: [leaf-user] Bering uClib does not find NICs
Hey Arnold, I wonder if you need to us the pci-scan.o module, and make the "pci-scan" entry right above your NIC declaration(s) in the /etc/modules file??? Mine looks like: # Those realtek based NICs need mii module #mii #8139cp #8139too #eepro100 #epic100 #pcnet32 #viarhine #winbond-840 # PCI ethernet cards #3c59x pci-scan natsemi #tulip ...etc., etc... Just a thought.

Assuming you use latest version 2.1 have you definded crc32 in modules.conf? kp --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

You get ne.o from the big tar.gz file (Bering_uClibc_2.1.0_modules_2.4.24.tar.gz). from the Bering download link http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=13751&package_id=67534&release_id=220334 - Original Message - From: "Arnold Wiegert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 4:52 PM Subject: Re: [leaf-user] Bering uClib does not find NICs > > Thank you; I have now and now the Surecom NIC is found, but not the old > ISA card - it needs ne.o, which does not seem to be part of the modules > package.
