[ale] Linksys NE2000 Ether16 card

[Zhongbin Yu " <z.yu at premcall.com>]

or simplly do a one-liner like this:

typeset -i io=200; while :; do echo "guessing port=$io"; /sbin/modprobe
ne io=$io; echo "ctrl-c to stop it if you got no error message, otherwise
hit any key"; read; io=$io+10;done

This is for bash. If you use different shell, you may want to modify the
syntax a little bit. This is one single line.

I used this to find two NE2K (ISA) cards at 0x340.

#I have an isa Ether16 card in RH 6.1 and am trying:
#
#modprobe io=0x320 irq=9
#
#and getting the following message
#NE*000 ethercard probe at 0x320: not found (invalid signature
#42 42).
#ne.c: No NE*000 card found at i/o = 0x320
#
#LinkSys card support states that Ether16 uses module ne.o is
#this correct?
#
#Also there seem to be no plug-n-play setting in the setup of
#this card.
#
#Thanks,
