Hi all,
did anybody manage to activate the optional lan card in the 712 ??
As far as I know the normal prefab kernel on one of the iso images
should work. And according to the website the card should be supported.
I installed the 0.9-32serial and everything was fine so far.
The boot messages show that the kernel sees the card but registering
the card as a networkdevice seems to be the problem.
I remembered that at least 2.2 kernels needed a commandline option
e.g ether=0,0,eth1 to enable an additional lancard and
experimented with the command line but have not been able to find sufficient
info or to see any effect on the behavior.
Crucial seem to be the following lines (full dmesg output is further
below):
4. Gecko 80 Core Lan (802.3) (10) at 0xf0107000, versions 0x1c, 0x0, 0x8a, 0x0, 0x0

Warning : device (10, 0x18, 0x0, 0x8a, 0x0) NOT claimed by Lasi i82596 LAN 712, 715 or similiar
The card was working fine on HP-UX 10.20 and currently it is not connected to
a hub but that does not make a difference in the behavior.
Questions:
- Any bugs / caveats known ??
- cmdline options needed here evtly ??
Thanks in advance for feedback,
best regards,
Holger
