- Hello!
-
- We are trying to interface a Linux system with the rest of the world
- by using this ethernet card that we don't have any documentation for.
- We are interested in *any* info you could have on this, including the
- name of the manufacturer, but also things like device drivers to use,
- etc etc.
-
- THe card is an 8-bit ISA card, it has a chip labeled 'Reliability //
- 2VP1209 LAN-PAC(tm) // made in ireland' and a 40mHz crystal. There's
- another important-looking (:-) chip labeled AM7990DC on it.
-
- The sockets on the edge are one 9-pin D type plug, and one coax e-net
- plug.
-
- The date '16 FEB 1989' stamped in black, and the words 'ENET 1.4 LS'
- are printed on the back side.
-
- Any help deeply appreciated!
