Help!
I have an NEC 6030x running FreeBSD 2.1.6 and PAO-960831.tar.gz.
i'm trying to get a 3com 3c589 ethernet card to work.
when i insert the card, i get:
ep0: failed to come ready.
my pccard.conf has:
io 0x300-0x360
irq 10 11 15
memory 0xd4000 96k
card "3Com Corporation" "3C589"
config default "ep0" 11
...
my kernel config has:
device ep0 at isa? port 0x300 net irq 11 vector epintr
syslog reports:
/kernel: Card inserted, slot 0
Card "3Com Corporation" ("3C589") matched ...
Found existing driver (ep0) for 3Com Corporation
Using I/O addr 0x300, size 16
Setting config reg at offs 0x10000 to 0x41
Reset time = 100 ms
Assigning I/O window 0, start 0x3000, size 0x10 flags 0x7
Assign ep0, io 0x300, mem 0x0, 0 bytes, irq 11, flags 0
ep0 failed to come ready.
Return IRQ=11
stray irq 11
driver allocation failed for 3Com Corporation
i looked at isa/if_ep.c to see why "failed to come ready" would
come up. the code sniplet is:
if (epb->prod_id != 0x9058) { /* 3C589's product id */
...
printf("ep%d: failed to come ready.\n", is->id_unit);
i printed out epb->prod_id, and it is 0xc0ff.
so... how do i get this to work?
please reply to email, i'll summarize if there's interest.
thanks!
...bryan
