Sun Jul 2 01:38:33 EST 1995 1. At present the driver autoprobes for a WaveLAN card only at I/O address 0x390. The version of the card that I use (NCR) supports four I/O addresses (selectable via a pair of DIP switches). If you want the driver to autoprobe a different subset of the four valid addresses then you will need to edit .../drivers/net/wavelan.c (near line 714) and change the initialisation of the `iobase[]' array. Normally, I use a LILO configuration file directive to obviate the need for autoprobing entirely, a course of action I heartily recommend. 2. By default, the driver uses the Network ID (NWID) stored in the card's Parameter Storage Area (PSA). However, the PSA NWID can be overridden by a value passed explicitly as the third numeric argument to LILO's "ether=" directive, either at the LILO prompt at boot time or within LILO's configuration file. For example, the following line from such a LILO configuration file would auto-configure the IRQ value, set the I/O base to 0x390 and set the NWID to 0x4321, all on a WaveLAN card labelled "eth0": .. append ="ether=0,0x390,0x4321,eth0" .. 3. The driver uses the IRQ stored in the card's PSA. To change this you will need to use the configuration/setup software that accompanies each WaveLAN device. Yes, the driver should use the value passed in via LILO and it will, just as soon as I can work out why that part of the code doesn't work :-(. 4. If you encounter any problems send me some email.
