Hi kernel hackers,

I have troubles getting both ISA-PnP and the driver for my 3c509 NIC
working together.  Here are the error messages I get:

Kernel 2.4.1 with ISA-PnP and 3c509 support compiled in, on boot time:
# /etc/init.d/networking start
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: unknown interface: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
SIOCSIFBRDADDR: No such device
eth0: unknown interface: No such device
eth0: unknown interface: No such device

With ISA-PnP compiled in, and 3c509 support compiled as module:
# modprobe 3c509
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: invalid parameter parm_io
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod 3c509 failed

With both ISA-PnP and 3c509 compiled as modules:
# modprobe 3c509
isapnp: Scanning for Pnp cards...
isapnp: Card 'TERRATEC SOUNDSYSTEM BASE 1'
isapnp: 1 Plug & Play card detected total
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: invalid parameter parm_io
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod 3c509
failed              
# insmod /lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o
/lib/modules/2.4.1/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: unresolved symbol
isapnp_find_dev_Rb2fa20db

I can only get my NIC to work when I leave ISA-PnP completely out of the
kernel.  When I have ISA-PnP activated, the card will not show up in
/proc/isapnp (see below) nor is it listed in the table that my system
displays prior to starting LILO.  The kernel help on the 3c509 driver
suggests to completely deactivate PNP for the NIC, which is what I have
done since kernel 2.0.x.  Unfortunately, I can't find info on
re-enabling PNP on the card.

Below, I have attached the content of /proc/isapnp.  If I can do
anything to provide more info, let me know.

Thanks for a great kernel,
Viktor
