Message-ID: <20020329040121.D66C8199A3@mail.cse.psu.edu> (raw)

if what is on the card really is one of the PNIC variants
supported by ether2114x.c, you might need to add a new vendor/device ID
pair to that driver before it will recognise the card,
and you'll need to decide which of the two Pnic cases it matches.
you can often get that from the BIOS inventory, or use
/sys/lib/pcdist/bin/386/pci (carefully, since it prods the PCI registers).

my Netgear cards with Pnic[2], FA310TX i think, have about the same data rate
as others i've tried, and it's faster than some, so it's not all bad news.
(FA311 and FA312 are completely different devices.)
