i82554 on AMD-Board  
Hi,

According to QNX 6.3.0 Service Pack 3 Network Drivers Patch (Patch ID 685) Release Notes the following Ethernet- 
Controller is supported by

devn-i82544.so 
NAME=devn-i82544.so 
DATE=2007/08/30-14:47:03-EDT 
VERSION=630SP3-685 


#pci -v 
Class = Network (Ethernet) 
Vendor ID = 8086h, Intel Corporation 
Device ID = 10b9h, Unknown Unknown 

This  PCI-Express-Adapter doesn't work on an AMD-Motherboard (Gigabyte GA-M61P-S3).

io-net can be started with devn-i82554.so and a ip-address is configurable:

io-net -di82544 verbose=4 -ptcpip & 
ifconfig en0 172.16.205.4 
# ifconfig 
en0: flags=8c43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,OACTIVE,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
capabilities=7<IP4CSUM,TCP4CSUM,UDP4CSUM> 
enabled=0<> 
address: 00:1b:21:05:2b:2c 
inet 172.16.205.4 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 172.255.255.255 

But I can't get a connection (Link up missing):

Could it be that the  Nvidia-Chip (MCP61) isn't supported ? 
Some other AMD board with a Nvidia-Chip (CK804) works.
