Administrator Emeritus

I'm terribly sorry that we couldn't answer your question. The only people who will have a shot at providing you with an answer are those who have some experience on a DEC Unix system. I do not. DEC is a very minor player in the UNIX arena or was prior to it's demise.

You posted your question late on Friday and felt a need to insult us late on Sunday. It is possible that we have one or two DEC experts who simply didn't check the board over the weekend. Your second posting did not increase the probability that they would spend their time to answer your question.

We do have some rules here that posters are expected to follow. Please read them and comply with them if you intend to continue posting. In particular, notice:

Quote:

(2) No negative comments about others or unpolite remarks. Be patient.
(4) Do not 'bump up' questions if they are not answered promptly.

You have broken both of these rules rather severely.

fpa

FPA(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    FPA(4)

NAME

     fpa, fea, fta -- DEC FDDI interface driver

SYNOPSIS

     fpa* at pci? dev ? function ?
     fea* at eisa? slot ?

   alpha and pmax
     fta* at tc? slot ? offset ?

DESCRIPTION

     Cards supported by the fpa, fea and fta device driver are:

	   DEFPA   DEC PCI FDDI Controller

	   DEFEA   DEC EISA FDDI Controller

	   DEFTA   DEC TURBOchannel FDDI Controller

     respectively.  All variants of either controller are supported including the DAS and SAS configurations.

DIAGNOSTICS

     fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ (%d)  The device probe detected that the DEFEA board is configured for a
     different interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.

     fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required  The device probe found that no device memory had been configured on the
     DEFEA.  The DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this driver requires a minimum of 1K device memory be set up.  The ECU (EISA Con-
     figuration Utility) will need to be run to change the settings.

SEE ALSO

     arp(4), netintro(4), ifconfig(8)

AUTHORS

     The fpa, fea and fta device driver and manual page were written by Matt Thomas.

BUGS

     Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.  However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is set, the device driver will enable
     the reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet Filter for processing.
