Sender: parisc-linux-admin@lists.parisc-linux.org Errors-To: parisc-linux-admin@lists.parisc-linux.org List-Help: List-Post: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: parisc-linux developers list List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: What's the deal with the various HP-branded tulip-based NICs? Are they expected to "just work" or what? I found one that sure doesn't, but then again, but my kernel isn't actually new ... (2.4.18-32 packaged) The card is the HP ANA-6911A/AUI (yes, it's a 10/100BT with coax and AUI too), part# A3738-60001, and it _is_ found by the tulip driver, but for some reason the driver claims that "no MII transceiver found", and does list the 10B2 and AUI connections too. But I can't seem to make it form a link with TP or coax, no matter what I do. And the AUI connector is blocked by the C240 chassis. Is there a simple way to force the use of a certain transceiver? Tried mii-tool already and it didn't help much - but then again it doesn't seem to know about the coax and AUI at all... Then again, I haven't tested this card on HP-UX either yet so it could be a hardware problem... -- Mikko Nahkola Tre-IN sysadmin
