Motherboard LAN drivers

Looking at a couple new PC motherboards to run QNX 4.25 on and both have
built-in LAN’s:

  1. Intel D865GBF motherboard with built-in Intel 82562 EZ 10/100 controller
  2. ASUS P4PE-X with built-in Broadcom 4401 10/100 controller

I looked up in QNX 4 support for ethernet drivers and can’t find any for
Broadcom at all, and the Intel 82562 is not listed. Does anyone know if
either can be made to work? I figure the Broadcom one might be since it’s a
PCI interface but am unsure of the Intel one since it is an LCI device.

Thanks.

The Intel chip should work with the Net.ether82557 driver, but you might
have to specify the vendor and device IDs on the command line.

We don’t have any Broadcom ethernet drivers.
