Hi all, I ran into trouble with my old Contura 410 and my new DFE-650TX ethernetcard. The card works fine in my worklaptop (Gateway 2500).
It does not work in the old Contura. When I insert the card it beeps two times and the eth0 is set up and shown by ifconfig. However the led's at the connectorbox are blinking and there is no connection to the network. I played around a little bit and learned that this is the case also when /etc/pcmcia/network is not run. So I set the switch -x in the first line and ran it by hand. Here is the output: + '[' -r ./shared ']' + . ./shared ++ umask 022 ++ '[' 2 -lt 2 ']' ++ ACTION=start ++ DEVICE=eth0 + get_info eth0 + '[' -d /var/state/pcmcia ']' + '[' -d /var/lib/pcmcia ']' ++ cat /var/lib/misc/pcmcia-scheme + SCHEME= + STAB=/var/run/stab + '[' '!' '' ']' + SCHEME=default + grep eth0 0 network pcnet_cs 0 eth0 ++ /sbin/ifconfig eth0 ++ sed -n -e 's/.*addr \([^ ]*\) */\1/p' + HWADDR=00:50:BA:73:7D:3D + ADDRESS=default,,,00:50:BA:73:7D:3D + . ./network.opts ++ IF_PORT=auto ++ PUMP=n ++ IPADDR=192.168.0.2 ++ NETMASK=255.255.255.0 ++ NETWORK=192.168.0.0 ++ BROADCAST=192.168.0.255 ++ GATEWAY= ++ DNS_1= + RESOLV=/etc/resolv.conf + test auto + /sbin/ifport eth0 auto + is_true n + '[' n = y -o n = Y -o n = yes -o n = YES ']' + is_true + '[' '' = y -o '' = Y -o '' = yes -o '' = YES ']' + is_true + '[' '' = y -o '' = Y -o '' = yes -o '' = YES ']' + is_true + '[' '' = y -o '' = Y -o '' = yes -o '' = YES ']' + '[' 192.168.0.2 ']' + BC=broadcast 192.168.0.255 + /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 + '[' 192.168.0.0 ']' + /sbin/ifuser eth0 192.168.0.0 + test '' + '[' '' ']' + '[' '' ']' + '[' '' ']' + test -x /usr/sbin/ipmasq + start_fn eth0 + return + exit 0 This all looks very similar to the output on the Gateway and I don't have any clue anymore. /proc/interrupts shows ... 5: 4 XT-PIC pcnet_cs ... and /proc/ioports shows ... 0300-031f : pcnet_cs Both are free before I insert the card. System is a debian 2.2 fresh install. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated. matth
