I got this Dell Latitude laptop and are using a 3Com 589D pcmcia network
card (10Mbit), this card works just fine in Windows and Linux.

but in QNX the net only works for abt. 4 seconds every 30 second. (!) any
ideas how to make this more stable?

Using QNX RTOS just downloaded from the qnx site.

Thankyou for the answer, but the problem is solved now as it was so simple
as a IRQ collision with the paralell port so giving the devp-pccard the same
port and irq values as it got in Windows everything works just fine.
