It has software selection between Artisoft, artisoft-8bit, and ne2000 modes, so I selected the ne2000. But when probed, it says ne1000: /386bsd: ed0 at 0x300-0x31f irq 5 on isa /386bsd: ed0: address 00:00:02:02:67:67, type NE1000 (8 bit) What's really troubling is that it seems to be getting the wrong ethernet address off the card; I tried two different cards of the same model, and this same ethernet address comes up. It appears to be working OK, but is there a way to make it probe as an ne2000 and get the correct ethernet address? Thanks. Loren Irwin lirwin@silicon.csci.csusb.edu
