3C507 Problems

Post by Michael Hughe » Sun, 22 Sep 1996 04:00:00



I am using 3C507s in my linux servers.  I am curretnly running Linux
2.0.18.  When transfering files over 64K, the card shutsdown. The syslog
shows the followin message:

 kernel: eth0: Rx unit stopped, status 5220, restarting.

ifconfig provides the following info for the card:

eth0      Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet  HWaddr 00:60:8C:5A:D3:1B
          inet addr:207.100.76.97  Bcast:207.100.76.127  
Mask:255.255.255.224
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:42599 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
          TX packets:43378 errors:208 dropped:0 overruns:0
          Interrupt:5 Base address:0x300 Memory:d0000-e0000--

Any Clues?

Sorry, no clues, but my 3c507 behaved in the same way. The transfer rate of
large
files had very large variations and the log filled with messages.
I changed ethercard and the problems went away. I used kernel 1.2.13 at that
time.

1. Help. I have a problem whit my 3C507

Hi,

I'm having a problem installing my 3C507 ethernetcard on my FreeBSD
3.0-980520-SNAP system (Pentium, 8MB, 2,5GB UFS).

The card is not conflicting with any other cards (io 0x220, irq 5) and the
current setup works fine under win98, but the FreeBSD kernel refuses to
recognize the card. It says:

[...]
ie0: unknown board_id: f000
ie0 not found at 0x220
[...]

The card says it's a 3Com Etherlink 16TP (c) 1991, All rights are reserverd
ASSY 7508-04 REV B.

Any thoughts? TIA,
vgr rjh
