Video Card Not Detected...and network oddness

Hi,

I’ve got QNX installed and running, but instead of detecting and using the
Matrox Millenium II driver, its loading the VESA driver - any ideas why?

Also, I have an ISA based NE2000 Card, and I am having to do the:

slay io-net
io-net -d ne2000 irq=10,ioport=0x240 -ptcpip
netmanager

thing at startup - no problem, but in my case I have to make a second call
to net manager, the first call produces an:

“Could not get current interface configuration (en0): can’t assign requested
address”

The second time I call netmanager it works though - any ideas on this one?

Thanks

P.S. Please reply via email as well as posting if you can.

Could you post the output of pci-v so we can see the device ID of your video
card.

Michael,

The salient parts of pci -v:

Class = Display (VGA)
Vendor ID = 102bh, Matrox
Device ID = 51bh, Millenium II

Any chance you could tell me where, in which config file, io-graphics is
being called at startup? I could, I think, change that call to use the
Matrox driver right?

Thanks

In the file /etc/system/enum/devices/graphics you need to add a line with
your card’s id. There already are entries for Matrox cards. Copy one of
these lines and change the device ID to that of your card. You should get
a line:

device(pci, ven=$(PCI_VEND_MATROX), dev=0x051b) #Matrox Millenium II

Make sure this follows the existing Matrox entires. Also do not use a graphical
editor as many of them add characters to the file that will cause errors.

After making these changes reboot your system and try to run: crttrap trap
If all is well your Matrox card should be detected.
