Dave, That sounds about right, except for the "=" -> ":" correction Carlos noted. The other option, in case you want to play around with things for a while, would be to put the information into /etc/modules.conf: alias eth1 qeth options qeth qeth_options=noauto;0x1500,0x1501,0x1502,portname:TESTPORT
Then all you have to do is the "ifconfig eth1" commands and it all magically works.

I'm testing a SuSE Linux 2.2.16 distribution and currently using one of the OSA-Es in non-qdio mode. Everything is working fine just like with the 9672. I would like to try the other OSA-E (which is genned for qdio). I've look through some of the redbooks and search the archives and I wasn't real sure of the command sequence to get Linux talking to OSA-E on at least a temporary basis. Would the sequence be something like: insmod qdio insmod qeth qeth1,0x1500,0x1501,0x1502,portname=TESTPORT [1500 is the device number] ifconfig eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Thanks, Dave Froberg Phone: 202-312-9807 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
