Here's what I did today: (a) Installed new coin battery on motherboard (b) Switched EtherPro100 card to 5V/32bit PCI slot None of this brought back my motherboard's original ethernet devices. I wish I could figure out what happened, but I know that the never worked again after plugging a HCRX-24Z card into the GSC bus. I got one error somewhere that said something like "... Something really bad has happened ..." but it never re-appeared, and neither did the tulip or LASI ether devices. Ok, through methodical emperical experimentation I have found that the command: "# ping -s 157 servername" Will succeed. However, "# ping -s 158 servername" Will fail. I have kernel 2.1.18, and will try 2.4.19 but I have to burn a cd to get it on the machine so I have procrastinated. I will give it a shot tonight, apply Andreas's patch and recompile. About the last thing in the world I want to do is buy a tape drive just to reload my firmware. Maybe one of you wizards could cook up a way to flash it from linux like is done on a Netwinder? Later! - Doug
