Please can you post the output from nicinfo after you have started the
driver and done an ifconfig and tried to ping it from another machine.
Unfortunately we don’t have the exact chipset that you have, so you
are going to have to help me on this one!
This is the output of the commands:

Apr 21 14:33:53 5 10 0 sis9 (lan: 0): Link Up. (10bT)As I told you before, nicinfo does not report transmission errors when I
ping from my machine, but I get “host unreachable”. I don’t know if that
depends on the driver or it’s just a normal TCP/IP configuration issue. I
guess my IP config is fine. I tried to use DHCP for the network card IP, but
I get an error from dhcp.client (old and updated version), like “can’t reach
DHCP server on interface en0”. So I try a static IP in my subnet, but other
machines in the same subnet can’t ping to me, and I can’t see any Rx packet
in nicinfo output. And that’s strange because I received many packets with
the MORE bit error.
So I don’t know what to think anymore. It should be an IP config problem,
but everything is set correctly and it doesn’t work. Any thoughts?Paolo

Sorry, but I’m confused! You said below that you were able to get an
adhoc connection to a Linux box. Now you say that networking is not
working?Please do the following:
- slay io-net
- sloginfo -c
- io-net -dsis9 verbose=4 -ptcpip
- slay io-net
- sloginfo > file
Post the output ‘file’ from step 5.

Unfortunately, networking doesn’t work yet.
I don’t think it’s because of the MORE bit error message… even when I
don’t get the error PING doesn’t work, either from or to my machine. And
nicinfo does not show Tx packet errors when I ping from my machine,
while
when I ping from another machine to mine no Rx packets are logged.Btw, the exact error was: MORE bit not clear
I also have troubles with USB and SoundCard, both by SiS, but I’d be
happy
if at least the network worked.
Anyway, I try to use devu-ohci for USB - I get no errors, but also no
peripherals, and if I try to enable usb mouse no usbmouse device is
created
(which seems reasonable, since it’s not detected).
For the soundocard I saw there’s a reference to some deva-ctrl-sis.so
driver
in /etc/system/enum/audio - I wanted to try that, but I haven’t on my HD
and
I installed both QNX Neutrino and the Momentics suite.Paolo

Thanks, I was able to get an adhoc connection working, even with a

machine.As for my SiS network card I get this error in the system log:
devn-sis9.so: Bit MORE clear (or similar)What is it?
This means that the receive logic found a descriptor with the MORE bit
clear, when it was expecting the MORE bit to be set. Otherwise, is the
driver working OK? Do you get this status in the sloginfo often?Btw, now nicinfo shows that my card has a non-zero MAC address, so the
fix
is working.Paolo

Please, will you get out the driver to the experimental section.
I will have the updated driver posted at > http://developers.qnx.com
in the next few days.
