Bus 0, device 11, function 0: Ethernet controller: Lite-On Communications Inc LNE100TX (rev 32). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=32. I/O at 0xc400 [0xc4ff]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe1000000 [0xe10000ff]. It does work with the Tulip driver. But I have also noticed that it wants IRQ 5. Plugging in one of these cards into a system which wanted to assign it to IRQ 11 did not work. Which is not to say there isn't a way to make it work. So I'm guessing you need to address the IRQ issue; perhaps someone else can provide more assistance on how to do this. -- David Benfell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ 59438240 [e-mail first for access] --- There are no physicists in the hottest parts of hell, because the existence of a "hottest part" implies a temperature difference, and any marginally competent physicist would immediately use this to run a heat engine and make some other part of hell comfortably cool. This is obviously impossible. -- Richard Davisson [from fortune]
