Thanks to Hichael , Betrand, Mathew and David. Hichael pointed out that if the board is electonicallly dead even sunvts or the firmware will not know about it, this turned out to be the problem . Other good things to know: check the card at OBP with watch-net-all Are you sure you installed it in the correct PCI slot? Some slots have different voltages/bus widths that cause cards to malfunction. It's been a while, but I think the QFEs operate at 3.3v & 33mhz. They may be able to do any voltage (I've seen voltage switching cards in the past) and as well they may work in a 66mhz slot. (I'm pretty sure 66mhz is backward compat. to 33mhz cards anyway) Do you have these packages installed? system SUNWqfed Sun Quad FastEthernet Adapter Driver system SUNWqfedu Sun Quad FastEthernet Adapter Driver Headers They're on your Solaris CD. _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Sat Jun 14 07:19:32 2003
