Hi everybody, I've been fighting for nearly a week with trying to get my Dell CPx online with 4.2-R. I did a cd install but could not get either of the pcmcia cards I have to work. I was using both a Linksys PCMPC100 (V3) and a D-Link DFE-650DX. I got both to allocate resources properly, but both would spew "ed0: device timeout" when trying to receive traffic. (It appeared they could send fine as I saw DHCP requests when sniffing the network with tcpdump.) Finally I stumbled accross a mail which referenced a program called fa_select.c. This allowed me to configure the card to negotiate the link speed/type properly. Happily, I am now working and on the network. If the fa_select.c functionality going to be incorporated into the driver in future releases? Perhaps fa_select just just be part of the base system? Url to fa_select.c http://webperso.easynet.fr/fonvi/fa_select.c Well, thanks for listening to my rant. Ken -- Ken Monville <desmo@bandwidth.org> GCS d- s++: a-- C+++ UHB++++$ P+++ L- E--- W+ N o?
