SM(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual SM(4)NAME
sm -- SMC91Cxx-based Ethernet interfaces device driver
SYNOPSIS
sm0 at isa? port 0x300 irq 10
sm* at mhzc?
sm* at pcmcia? function ?
sm* at nubus?
DESCRIPTION
The sm device driver supports SMC91C9x-based and SMC91C1xx-based Ethernet interfaces.
The ISA attachment of the sm driver supports any SMC91C9x-based Ethernet interface on the ISA bus, including the EFA Info*Express SVC VLB
interface, and the on-board SMC91C9x Ethernet found in many embedded PCs and laptop docking stations.
The mhzc attachment of the sm driver supports the Megahertz combo Ethernet and modem card.
The PCMCIA attachment of the sm driver supports Megahertz X-JACK Ethernet cards.
The nubus attachment of the sm driver supports SMC-based Ethernet cards for the macintosh.
MEDIA SELECTION
The SMC91C1xx supports the MII interface and so the list of supported media depends on several factors, including which PHY is attached. The
SMC91C9x supports AUI and UTP media types.
To enable the AUI media, select the 10base5 or aui media type with ifconfig(8)'s media directive. To select UTP, select the 10baseT or utp
media type.
ifconfig(8)'s -m option will display the full list of supported media directives for a particular configuration.
DIAGNOSTICS
sm0: unable to read MAC address from CIS This indicates that the Ethernet address, which is stored in the CIS information on the Megahertz
X-JACK PCMCIA Ethernet card, is corrupted.

XI(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual XI(4)NAME
xi -- Xircom CreditCard Ethernet device driver
SYNOPSIS
xi* at xirc?
Configuration of PHYs may also be necessary. See mii(4).
DESCRIPTION
The xi driver provides support for the Xircom CreditCard family of PCMCIA Ethernet adapters. Supported cards include:
Xircom CreditCard Ethernet II
Xircom CreditCard 10/100 Ethernet
Xircom RealPort 10/100 Ethernet + Modem (Ethernet function only)
Intel EtherExpress Pro/100
Compaq Netelligent 10/100
Cards which should work, but have not been confirmed include:
Xircom RealPort Ethernet
Xircom RealPort 10/100 Ethernet
Some Xircom Ethernet products are supported by the tlp(4) driver.
MEDIA SELECTION
Media selection is done using ifconfig(8) using the standard ifmedia(4) mechanism. Refer to those manual pages for more information.
SEE ALSO ifmedia(4), mii(4), netintro(4), pcmcia(4), tlp(4), xirc(4), ifconfig(8)HISTORY
The xi device driver appeared in NetBSD 1.5.
BUGS
The driver suffers from poor performance. Even with the 10/100 cards, do not expect more than ~450KB/s. Some 10/100 cards may not autonego-
tiate reliably and require manual media selection.
The Xircom multifunction cards which contain both Ethernet and modem interfaces are known to have problems. This is due to the card not
reporting itself correctly as a multifunction card.

Hi,
I'm running HPUX 11.0 on a machine with two Nic's. Everytime I install UNIX I select the card I want as the primary but it doesn't show up. When I do a ioscan it shows both cards but the card I want is listed as UNCLAIMED UNKNOWN how can I change this?

I have a new Sun 440 and I am trying to configure it. Non of the Ethernet ports are enabled; when I issue "ifconfig -a" it returns nothing. Is there a way to know the available port name (e.g. ce, bge, etc.) by running a command or so ? (4 Replies)
Hello everybody,
I'm having troubles with Slackware 13.1 and network cards.
