I guess the ed0 driver ignores the > iomem setting when dealing with a real NE2000 then? Yes. The 'ed' driver is really a driver for the NS8390 and compatibles, hence it supporting both NE1000/2000 and WD/SMC cards. The NE cards use programmed I/O to access the 8390's RAM, wheras the SMC cards map it into the PC's address space. > I'll send the Crynwyr drivers over to the owner of the machine and > let him fiddle with it.

Can you see if you can find out what the blob on the card is (ie. is it an 83C90, or someone's clone?) > Brian Tao (BT300, taob@io.org, taob@ican.net) -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] Collector of old Unix hardware.
