PCI card not detected on Intel 845G chipset

PCI card not detected on Intel 845G chipset

[Ronny Bremer]

Hi there,

please remind me if this is the wrong list.

I recently installed 2.6.16 on a compaq evo PC running Intel 845G chipset. Kernel finds all major system devices (USB, VGA, etc) but fails to find the installed Netgear WG311T card in the PCI slot.
lspci doesn't even show this card.

I tried all combinations of acpi=off, noapic, pci=routeirq without success.
No error messages concerning the PCI bus appear in dmesg.
The only weird thing is, that lspci shows this device:
Unknown non-vga adapter
with the ID 0200:7008

I have not found any information about this device nor do I have any idea what this could be.
The Netgear card should start with 168c:0013

Please CC me on any replies.

Thank you,
Ronny

Does Windows find this card?  And have you made sure you've got the
card propery seated in the slot?  Maybe you've got a bad connection,
or a 3.3v card in 5v slot.  In other words, check the hardware.

Wierd, but try using 'lspci -vvvvv' for even more details on this
unknown device.

Yes, windows finds the card. I even check with Netgear to make sure they haven't changed the chipset.

Apparently, their support was wrong. I replaced the Netgear card with a different model and Linux finds it immediately.

I am still a bit confused but there is no way to blame the kernel on this one :-)

Thank you for taking time to look into this.
