Title: 2.4 doesn't see my PCI-e NIC Post by: TheEricHarris on Thursday 05 August 2010, 06:26:48 am I have a Dell R210 with two onboard NICs that are detectetd fine. I have a Rosewill RC-411 PCI-e NIC that is not being detected by ENDIAN.
It did detect it at one point. root@scfw1:~ # cat /var/log/messages | grep eth2 Aug 4 08:46:00 efw-community kernel: [ 5.034486] eth2: Identified chip type is 'RTL8168D/8111D'.

Is this an IRQ conflict?

I have to do the same for my Atheros AR8131 onboard nic. http://efwsupport.com/index.php?topic=610.msg1697 See that topic but remember that you need the 2.4 version of devel SRMPS.

I bought a HP NC110T Pci express Gigabit NIC. It works just fine with 2.4 on a Dell PowerEdge R210 (3 NICs total). |
