Both commands result in #, my command prompt. Additionally, I had OpenBSD 3.0 functioning on this machine with these nics a few years ago. I plugged both NICs into a windows xp home box, Emachines T6528, one at a time, and both nics appear in Control Panel/Network and Internet Connections/Network Connections and in System Information/Network/Adapter as: Name: [0000008] Realtek RT8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC Adapter Type: Ethernet 802.3 Product Type: Realtek RT8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC, Installed: Yes). I left the DFE-530 TX+ out of my OBSD box and put in: 1) Unknown 10bps pci NIC 2) Netgear FA310TX, pci 3) 2 3Com 3c905B TX Fast Etherlink XL PCI Resulting DMESG entries are: fxp0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0 "Intel 8255x" rev 0x22, i82557: irq 12 address 00:a0:c9:8b:38:a2 fxp0: no phy found, using manual mode de0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0 "DEC 21140" rev 0x22, 21140A pass 2.2: irq 12, address 00:40:05:36:de:c0 xl0 at pci0 dev 12 function 0 "3Com 3c905B 100BaseTX" rev 0x00,: irq 12, address 00:60:08:58:de:33 nsphy0 at xl0 phy 24: DP83840 10/100 PHY, rev. 1 xl1 at pci0 dev 15 function 0 "3Com 3c905B 100BaseTX" rev 0x03,: irq 12, address 00:10:5a:61:0a:86 exphy0 at xl1 phy 24: 3Com internal media interface The DFEs are still a mystery, but, I have 4 apparently working NICs to choose 2 from. Any suggestions?
