I've just got a SMC Etherpower which I've been trying to install
without a great deal of luck. Unfortunately the card has a DEC 21041
at its heart which I've heard from a few people is not as stable as
the DEC 21040.
I have tried both the tulip.c and de4x5.c drivers. In both cases I
get the following messages:
firstly during the PCI probe:
Unknown PCI device. PCI Vendor id=6. PCI Device id=14.
and then later during driver initialization:
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
SIOCSIFBRADDR: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
etc
The card when probed under DOS gives the following details:
type: 8342BT
slot: 16
IRQ: 10
I/O Base: F880
My system is a Dell P133c giving with the following PCI devices:
PCI devices found :
Bus 0 Device 0 Function 0.
Host bridge : Intel 82437FX Triton (rev 2).
Bus 0 Device 7 Function 0.
ISA bridge : Intel 82371FB (rev 2).
Bus 0 Device 14 Function 0.
VGA display controller : Number Nine Imagine 128 (rev 0). 8259's
interrupt 11.
If anyone has any clues then I'd be extremely grateful. If not, I can
always return the card and get a 3c590.
Cheers, Ian
