Are you running a 2.4.20 kernel?  I think the stock Bering
stable image still usses 2.4.18.  If you have 2.4.18, you
need the 2.4.18 3c905.o module.  (uname -a will tell you
what kernel version you have if you don't know.)


I think Brad makes a good point jtpain0.  I just put Bering stable on a 
floppy and it is using the 2.4.18 kernel.  If the 2.4.18 3c509.o module 
still does not work try the ne.0 module.  Most isa cards were NE2000 
compatible because Novell was the dominate network player at the time of 
the ISA bus.  I seem to recall that I only used ne.o on either of the 
linksys or netgear ISA cards that I used several users ago.

I am using a 3c509 card just fine with 2.4 (2.4.20 too). This is with
vanilla kernels, not Bering, but it should be similar.

Just covering the trivial. Did you reserved the IRQ in the BIOS as
should be done for ISA?

And the 3c509 modules does not take a 'io=' argument, it will not load
if you give it. Just specify the 'irq='.

Maybe you need to tell it the IRQ explicitly. Also make sure there is no
confilict using diagnostics DOS 3COM prog. On my Bering systems (2.4.20
kernel), here is what I have:

# ISA ethernet cards
#3c509 - eth0
3c509 irq=5

And that was also same when the system was in Daschstein.

could it be that your BIOS is set to PNP... make sure that is turned off...

If that's not the problem, post the exact error mesage you

Without a module properly installed for your NIC, you definitely
won't see it in the ip addr output.

RE: [leaf-user] Drivers for 3C509B

2003-01-10 Thread Steve Fink
With the older ISA cards there was generally a dos based utility to set
the IRQ and Resource address.

You will need to set both the IRQ and resource address for both cards
manually via this utility, but make sure that they are different.

Then set the module to use the same IRQ and resources.

Best,

Steve
