I have big trouble getting my Accton 10/100 Cheetah PCI NIC detected by
RedHat 5.1 with kernel 2.0.34.
Here are some data :
My /etc/conf.modules looks like this:
alias eth0 tulip
options tulip debug=6 options=0
Running 'insmod tulip' i get the following error :
tulip.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
My /proc/pci file looks like this :
PCI devices found:
Bus 0, device 12, function 0:
Ethernet controller: Unknown vendor Unknown device (rev 16).
Vendor id=1113. Device id=1211.
Medium devsel. IRQ 11. Master Capable. Latency=32. Min
Gnt=32.Max Lat=64.
I/O at 0xd800.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe6000000.
I have checked the /proc/ioports and /proc/interrupts that there is no other
device using the I/O or interrupt.
I notice that the vendor and device is unknown. Something missing in pci.h
???
Probably because the vendor and device is unknown, i must use the -p d800
option with the diag utility so that it can find the card :
# tulip-diag -a -e -e
Unable to find a Tulip card in /proc/pci
# tulip-diag -p d800 -a -e -e

ID CRC 0x91 (vs. 0xc7), complete CRC 8310ce98.
Is there a way to tell modprobe (in /etc/conf.modules) what I/O address the
card is at ?
I have tried options tulip options=0 debug=6 io=0xd800
but it will not buy it.
