Access to keyboard without video.

Hello, I am working on an embedded server, and have run into some difficulty. I need to access the keyboard (to read keys) on a machine that has no video. (no video card, that is) I wrote a program that works fine when run from the shell prompt (working with stdin)... but

10/100 highly reliable supported ethernet cards?

Hello, Recently, I've had some problems with the new 10/100 Management adapters from intel (they don't seem to work properly in my hardware) Can anyone recommend some good stable 10/100 PCI NIC? I've used the Dec-Ethernet chipset 2x44x but only on on-board ethernet... can

We have a bunch of the Linksys EtherFast cards around here. They use the PNIC, which is a follow-on to (or clone of) the 21140 series, and Bill Paul's driver seems to perform quite well. Thanks, I'll look into that. The EtherExpress Pro is probably the most respected card around

However, we have at least one industrial-type system (with a different board/config) that works fine with these cards, though we didn't do the install with one. I'll try that tomorrow and report my findings. Though the cards seem to work post-install, they fail in the install

Good Afternoon, I have been using the Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100B cards for some time. I just recieved a batch of the Intel Pro/100+ management adapters. In most of my machines, they don't work. Everything I can find says they should be compatible, but there are very clearly

Large data transfers seem to cause the lockup. I know at least 1 netbsd person has reported similar problems with these new cards, (kern/7216). Has anyone seen problems like these? Any ideas? Hmmm...I've been using them in some machines here and haven't seen any problems. Strange.
