This will help you validate your combination of mainboard (+BIOS) and kernel, so that the only thing left would be the card itself. Then you can test it with the 905B-COMBO with BNC. But, there is something else that bothers me: would WOL work with the BNC transceiver ? Basically this would have to be left powered on in order to be able to receive the WOL packet; AFAIK (I don't have such card) this is an external chip. -- Bogdan Costescu IWR - Interdisziplinaeres Zentrum fuer Wissenschaftliches Rechnen Universitaet Heidelberg, INF 368, D-69120 Heidelberg, GERMANY Telephone: +49 6221 54 8869, Telefax: +49 6221 54 8868 E-mail: [email protected] _______________________________________________ vortex mailing list [email protected] http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/vortex
