Date: 12 Jun 1996 09:57:37 GMT Organization: University of Hamburg -- Germany Lines: 50 Message-ID: <4pm4ai$knb@rzsun02.rrz.uni-hamburg.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: rzdspc3.informatik.uni-hamburg.de X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi, just installed FreeBSD 2.2 snap and have the following problem: the Intel EthernetExpress doesn't work! The card has the following configuration: I/O x300, IRQ 10, mem x8000, mapping area/size xd0000 The card is correctly recognised at boot, but doesn't work. I installed Solarisx86 2.4 to check the card, worked fine... anyway, info that may be of use in helping me, with exact addresses, etc, removed :-): # ifconfig ix0 ix0: flags=803<UP,BROADCAST,SIMPLEX> mtu 1500 inet uuu.xxx.yy.zz netmask 0xffff0000 broadcast uuu.xxx.yy.255 ether 00:aa:00:27:ca:62 # ifconfig ix0 up Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: iscp->busy time out Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: iscp->busy time out Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Reset timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Reset timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Diagnose timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Diagnose timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Diagnose timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Diagnose timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Configure timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Configure timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Configure timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: Configure timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: IAS timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: IAS timeout cb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: IAS timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:53 myname /kernel: IAS timeout scb->status = 0 Jun 10 07:56:33 myname /kernel: sio0: 4 more interrupt-level buffer overflows (total 4) Jun 10 07:56:33 myname /kernel: sio0: 4 more interrupt-level buffer overflows (total 4) # netstat -i Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Coll lp0* 1500 <Link> 0 0 0 0 0 ix0 1500 <Link> 00.aa.00.27.ca.62 0 0 0 0 0 ix0 1500 uuu.xxx uuu.xxx.yy.zz 0 0 0 0 0 tun0* 1500 <Link> 0 0 0 0 0 sl0* 552 <Link> 0 0 0 0 0 lo0 16384 <Link> 81 0 81 0 0 lo0 16384 your-net localhost 81 0 81 0 0 Has anyone a tip?
