Oh... similar to other peopls problems I've googled... prtdiag and

pci1011,46

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated... since I don't have much more
hair to lose ;-)


Googling for "pci1011,46" found this in an sun support forum thread:

When I run show-devs, I don't see /pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci108e,7063@3
but I do see pci1011,46 for the sunpci card.

Anyone seen this? Any idea how to get it to work?


unfortunately the answer is very easy. Your card is not a SunPCi II (600 or 733MHz Celeron, integrated ethernet interface) but a SunPCi I (300 or 400MHz AMD K6, no integrated ethernet interface).

Without opening the case just check if a RJ-45 jack is above the single USB port. If it lacks this jack, it's only a SunPCi I.

Remove the SunPCI2 package and install the SunPCI package. Release 1.3 is the current and last one.
