lynksys network card

I am new to qnx and have a linksys10/100 etherfast card on an nec laptop
This is the only device on my machine which will not load
i have both lights lighted on the card and all lights lighted on the router
port which it is connected to.
can someone assist me with the configuration of this device?

If you go to http://qdn.qnx.com/support/hardware/platform/network.html
you’ll find an area that lists network hardware the QNX RTP currently
supports. I looked and couldn’t find linksys listed there. It’s possible
that it isn’t supported.

I just did a quick look through my current QNX documentation and all the
devn-* drivers. I don’t think it is supported yet. If I’m wrong, I am open
to corrections…

Currently I use a 3com 3CXE589ET PCMCIA card. The only thing I have to
watch out for is making sure it doesn’t use IRQ 5 on my laptop.

Good luck.

I didnt see it listed under network cards either …but is was listed under
pcmcia cards…the chipset is ec2t
the driver : Net.ether1000
I have a hunch i may need to change the irq because the card is lighted when
it boots and the router is lighted on that port but is not assigning an
address to the card.

Nor can i ping other machines on my network

I tried the pin command and noticed it is assigning irq 11

Hmm, 11 should be fine.

See if your bios has the pcmcia slot assigned correctly as a carbus/16 bit
thing. If it is or there isn’t a way to choose, restart devp-pccard and use
th -l (el) option to make slot 0 use a different interrupt than 11.

i.e.
devp-pccard -l 7,10 & (will start devp-pccard and assign irq 7 to slot 0
and irq 10 to slot 1)

These may be bad interrupt choices, but you get my drift…

Also do a “nicinfo” after the driver is loaded and post it. Those with more
understanding than I may comment on it…

Look on the bottom of the card.
If it’s a model PCMPC100 it’s not supported, and I could not make it
work, though it’s supported both in a Micro$oft world, and Linux.
The ne2000 driver appears to partially work, but it doesn’t.

The PCMPC200 is supported, and should work.

I finally settled on a Xircom RBEM56G-100 RealPort card, as both
the ethernet and the modem are supported by all three, Micro$oft,
Linux, and QNXRTP.
Also, it has no dongle to break, which has other advantages !
( al$o, a friend gave it to me, $o there wa$ that advantage )
