I tried the pci=assign-busses option with the three cards this morning.  The end result is that I still can't use them.

Some more information.

1) The Xircom RBE passed some packets in a ping test.  There was 60% packet loss.

2) Both Xircom cards show xircom_tulip_cb in lsmod.

3) The Linksys card showed up in the boot sequence as a Linksys Everywhere card and then drivers were loaded for it.


PS - Should I mention that the pci=assign-busses boot option isn't written up on the F2 or the F3 page?

Perhaps the autonegotiation is not correct? Try a lower link rate?  Bad hardware... perhaps bad cable?

iirc, some users could not get some cards working after a reboot... perhaps try a full power cycle?
