I'm running a P-75 (Triton chip set) with Linux 1.2.8 and 1.3.21, and
it's having trouble detecting the card. If I load LSL and 3C5X9 (the DOS
ODI driver) first, and then load the kernel with loadlin, everything
works fine. However, if I boot with no drivers and then load the kernel
via loadlin, it fails to detect the card.
I put in some code to trace down the error, and it chokes here:
/* Set the adaptor tag so that the next card can be found. */
outb(0xd0 + ++current_tag, ID_PORT);
/* Activate the adaptor at the EEPROM location. */
outb(0xff, ID_PORT);
EL3WINDOW(0);
if (inw(ioaddr) != 0x6d50) /* This returns 0xffff when the
ODI driver is not loaded */
return -ENODEV;
Any idea what's going on?
