[request-sponsor] request to add Intel D865PERL onboard LAN support
i was having trouble getting opensolaris to see my Intel Pro/100 VE device. looked through some forums, and found that i should try adding an entry to /boot/solaris/devicedb/master and /etc/device_aliases. added the following line to /boot/solaris/devicedb/master: pci8086,3020 pci8086,3020 net pci iprb.bef "Intel Pro/100 VE Ethernet" and the following line to /etc/driver_aliases: iprb "pci8086,3020" after doing this ran a devfsadm -C and prtconf was able to associate the probed pci8086,3020 device (the Intel Pro/100 VE Ethernet device) with the iprb driver.

I'm still working on the initial email about what processes you all should follow in responding to these messages. Expect to see something by tomorrow at the latest. In the meantime, it doesn't sound to me like this is actually a request for a sponsor. Does anyone want to follow up with Brian on this?

well, it's sorta a minor sponsor request. someone has to add the new ID and test it. I can take this one.

Brian, can you forward a prtconf -pv from the machine in question? That device ID looks suspiciously like a subsystem ID. See my treatise on IDs at http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/dmick/20050614#title_pci_device_identification_and Brian Y Wong wrote: > i was having trouble getting opensolaris to see my Intel Pro/100 VE device. > looked through some forums, and found that i should try adding an entry to > /boot/solaris/devicedb/master and /etc/device_aliases. > > added the following line to /boot/solaris/devicedb/master: > > pci8086,3020 pci8086,3020 net pci iprb.bef "Intel Pro/100 VE Ethernet" > > and the following line to /etc/driver_aliases: > > iprb "pci8086,3020" > > after doing this ran a devfsadm -C and prtconf was able to associate the > probed pci8086,3020 device (the Intel Pro/100 VE Ethernet device) with the > iprb driver. > This message posted from opensolaris.org > ___ > request-sponsor mailing list > request-sponsor at opensolaris.org
