Hello,
I recently installed Plan 9 Release 4 successfully, but my ethernet card was
not auto-detected.
It is a Linksys EtherPCI Lan Card II with a Winbond 89C940 chip on it
(supposedly an ne2000 clone).
I tried adding...
ether0=type=ne2000
...to my plan9.ini, but still no /dev/ether0. Any ideas on what to try
next?
I guess I could have looked at the detailed device parameters under
Windows98, before I blew it away :)
An aside - I've been wanting to play with Plan 9 ever since I read the
whitepapers about a year ago. I must say, I'm having a blast playing with
it so far.
Thanks,
Frank

i have one too [PCMCIA]. on a VAIO, no less. i've never got it
to go, but the lcd video works fine. so, i'd be interested in a fix too.

Hello,
I removed any other cards in the machine, and I now have a fairly
minimal configuration. Only 2 PCI cards plugged in, and no ISA cards
plugged in. Here is the output of /bin/pci
0.0.0: 06.00.00 8086/7030 0
0.13.0: 03.00.00 5333/8a01 10 0:f8000000 67108864
0.14.0: 02.00.00 1050/0940 11 0:0000ff81 32
0.7.0: 06.01.00 8086/7000 0
0.7.1: 01.01.80 8086/7010 0 4:0000ffa1 16
I think line 2 is from my video card. Line 3 is from the ethernet
card.
Thanks for checking into this!
-Frank
