The same: Unknown device 0040. Why? I have 2 NICs and other 2 NICs on-board. The on-board NICs are OK: 00:0e.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08) Subsystem: Intel Corporation EtherExpress PRO/100+ Server Adapter (PILA8470B) Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 9 Memory at f6244000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] I/O ports at d400 [size=64] Memory at f6100000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] [size=1M] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 But the PCI NICs shows me Unknown device 0040: 00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c) Subsystem: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 0040 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 5 Memory at f6241000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] I/O ports at dc00 [size=64] Memory at f6200000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 > Also, what does 'eepro100-diag -aef' report when you have the problem? > http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html > ftp://ftp.scyld.com/pub/diag/ I'll do the test when the problem will happen and I'll send the output to you and on the list. > [[ Normally I would redirect this message to the eepro100 mailing list, > but this might be a broader kernel problem. ]] Thank you, Cosmin - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
