Both of these use devn-speedo.so. You can see what is mounted into

I’ll try the new speedo first. It might take me a while to find a different
nic card (we have a lot of these Intels floating around :slight_smile: )

Keep us posted on your library linking status as well.

Will do.

Thanks,

Jim

I have downloaded it but do not know exactly where it needs to go in my
system (devn-speedo fix). Is there a set way to install these or do I just
tar out the one I need and copy it to lib/dll?

TIA,

Jim

I put the devn-speedo.so file in /lib/dll. I then rebooted and ran my
program. It exhibited the same behavior except the first error shown was
error code 6 and then the rest of the daemons failed with error code 3.

The best way to avoid config file problems when experimenting, is to slay
off io-net, then restart it with just the protocol (eg. io-net -ptcpip).
Then mount the driver from your current dir onto io-net (eg. mount -T io-net
…/devn-speedo.so)

That way you know you’re using the new speedo driver and don’t have extra
“stuff” loaded.

YOUCH! Just popped back over to QNX box to restart io-net and my box is
locked hard. Mouse doesn’t move and am going to have to hard boot it. :frowning:

Went out and purchased a 3c905C TX-M card today. It loaded up the correct
el900 driver in io-net. Ran my tests and the same thing happened (ie.
io-net crashed).

The weird thing is that it looked like it was working fine until I moved my
mouse over to the right and opened up the taskbar. As soon as it opened the
taskbar, it failed.

I think I’m going to go ahead and build a test program that I hope will
exhibit the same issues.

(io-net failure)

I’ve got some code that demonstrates this problem (on my machine at least).
Who do I need to send it to to have a look at it?

Thanks,

Jim

Please email it to me.
