Hello,

I have Qnx4 and a Linksys Fast Ethernet Cars using LC82c115 Chipset.
Supposedly Tulip compatible. Can’t get it to work. Any Suggestions ?

Thanks

It doesn’t work. The Linksys is a very broken tulip. I am in the midist
of fixing this and the NetGear problems with the tulip driver. :slight_smile:

The best signature I have seen, I’m quoting that one…

I have got a LNE100TX and its working with QNX patch D. I am
not sure of the chipset though.

I just have Net.tulip & in my sysinit but I think I had to
make a few adjustments to everything else to make sure the
right IRQ was free.

Why do I never write anything like this down ?! :slight_smile:

It’s been reported before that the LNE100TX has
been seen with more than one type of chip set.
At the time, not all such chip sets were supported
by QSSL drivers, so it was suggested that we stay
away from them. I don’t know whether support was
ever filled in.

The linksys web site quotes three variants for the cards.

I remembered that I have set the IRQ for that PCI slot to 5 instead of
AUTO. I don’t know if this will help. The only way I can determine the
chipset is to take the case lid off.

I noticed that an updated beta driver has been put on Chris McKillops web
site.
