I think I may have discovered a bug/flaw in the SMC Ultra ethernet drivers in kernel 2.0.30 and probably prior versions as well.
If you have your SMC Ultra ethernet card set to a jumpered address, ie; 0x280, i3, memory address 0xD000 through 0xD800, and change it to a different jumpered address, the kernel is unable to detect the card, even with autoprobe. I'm not sure if this is because of the SDL N2/csu that is also in the machine, but it is improbable, as the SDL N2/csu isn't even in the kernel, currently. This problem is definitely reproducable, as I have been reproducing it most of the night. System Configuration: RedHat 4.2 - Kernel 2.0.30 (Out Of The Box) SDL N2/csu (0x240, i5) Unknown Modem (cua1, i3) Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 Pro (S3 ViRGE/GX) BusLogic BT-946 SCSI
