Re: help with NIC needed

[Dominik Szczerba]

Hi,
There is no PCMCIA socket driver for the Gayle chip (I am/was working on
one), so none of the *_cs drivers are compiled by default, or work.
 

I see, I missed a point that pcmcia is one problem and what it serves is 
another

The fact that a card works on a PC is no guarantee at all that it will
work under Linux/m68k. I have tried several 10/100 Mbit cards which
normally use the pcnet_cs driver, and none of them work. Only the
cheapest kind of NE2000 compatible cards seem to work.
 

most manufacturers wouldnt even say if it is ne2k (or even whatever). I 
will pay a visit to ebay I guess :)

but if we can get the one working under Amiga running on m68k linux I am 
happy.
btw. if you check amigaOS sites in the net you will find that this card 
is very popular.
cheers
Dominik

Kind regards,
Kars.
