This card was made by Sonic Systems and has an SMSC 91C96 chip. There is a Linux driver for this chip (smc9194) but it lacks support for comm-slot cards. There is an old smc9194 driver in the 2.2 CVS branch at http://sourceforge.net/p/linux-mac68k that appears to have support for nubus and comm-slot cards. I don't know whether the authors ever pushed it to kernel.org... The macsonic driver works with cards made by Apple and Dayna that have a "Systems Oriented Network Interface Card" (SONIC) chip, made by National Semiconductor. So the question is, how did the macsonic driver probe it in the first place? The smc9194 driver at sourceforge will ignore cards that pass the macsonic probe test: card_present = hwreg_present((void*)ONBOARD_SONIC_REGISTERS); So it seems that either your macsonic driver lacks this test or else hwreg_present() isn't working. -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
