First try some simple fixit steps below.
Verify that the PCI Nic cards is not in the first PCI expansion slot. Slot closest to power supply. Try pciconf -lv command to see if it gives you any useful info. Disable any Bio's plug-n-play option. Disable or set to auto any Bio's option to assign irq numbers to PCI expansion slots. Your only remaining option is to customize the kernel source by adding the following device statement at the end of the kernel source and then recompiling. device puc An side effect of this device is that an more detailed probe of the bios is done for PCI devices. It can determine that all 3 of your Nic cards are using irq 9, the ms/windows shared PCI bus irq, and reassign 2 of the Nics to other irq numbers. You have nothing to lose in trying. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of JacobRhoden Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 5:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: sis0 / sis1 dont play nice together Hey, I have 3 network cards, and no matter what combination of two of them being plugged in, (Two are netgear, one is 3com) they dont work together. Is there something I am missing? Do I need to do anything special to get them both working at the same time. - They are always both recognised correctly in DMESG. - ifconfig then lists both of them but one of them with the wrong driver name ie: sis0/sis1 in dmesg ends up being sis0/de0 in ifconfig ?!?
