wrong adapter version detected

[John Dunlap]

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting a recently acquired older card to play
in a two-ethernet machine.  I tried "vortex-diag.c:v1.09 7/28/99
Donald Becker" but it detects the cards incorrectly.  The driver,
"3c59x.c:v0.99H 11/17/98 Donald Becker", detects the cards differently
from vortex-diag.

The machine's a Dell.  IRQs are both 10.  Kernel is 2.0.36.
Note that the cards are different: eth1 does not say autoselect.
eth0 works fine.  eth1 doesn't at all.
Vortex-diag Indexes are reversed: Index #2 refers to eth0 while Index
#1 refers to eth1.  eth1 is the recently acquired card.

I's suspicious that the eth1 transceiver is selected incorrectly but
vortex-diag gets off to a bad start so I could be having trouble
seeing things.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
John
