Any > ideas? Ditto here unfortunately. We have a few that work fine including some ancient original Novell cards and a couple of software configurables. They all work correctly under ipx and Novell but not all of them seem to work with FreeBSD. It just so happens that the two I own don't. :( And yes, I am POSITIVE that the settings are correct. Everything is recognized correctly by the kernel as well but it still gives the device timeout a short while later.... *sigh* Comments and suggestions welcome. -Dave
