Hi,
Im trying to install QNX Neutrino RTOS version 6.2 on my laptop (dell
inspiron 8100), one of my bigger problem is the NIC, inder linux i use the
driver for 3C556, but qnx cant detect anything, can anyone help me with this
??
Clas
Run the el900 driver as follows:
io-net -del900 vendor=0x10b7,device=0x6055 -ptcpip
Once this is done, you can ifconfig your interface or run dhcp.client.

Sorry, if this is a PCMCIA 3C556, then it won’t work. If it is the
mini-PCI 3C1556, then it will work.

Mr Brown,
we have Dell Latitude C600 laptops equipped with the same ethernet
controller (mini-PCI 3C556, vid=0x10b7, did=0x6055) but what you suggested
does not work.
It seems that the driver is unable to find and/or power-on the PHY : the
leds on the ethernet connector are both off (sorry, I’m not an ethernet guru
so…).
Some more infos to help you diagnose the problem.
Case #1
io-net -del900 verbose,vid=0x10b7,did=0x6055 -ptcpip

This 2nd case also show a problem parsing command line options or incorrect
infos returned by nicinfo command.
This ethernet controller is a very common piece of hardware used in many
laptops.
Please can you help us?
