Title Problem running Linksys EC2T NE2000 PCMCIA Card
Ref. No. QNX.000001376
Category(ies) PCMCIA, Network, Configuration
Issue When trying to run the Net.ether1000 driver we see the following errors:
   
Cannot detect ethernet pcmcia card.
Driver Initializing ...
ROM not detected
Trying as 16 bit card
Memory Verification Failed, Exiting
Net.ether1000: INITIALIZATION ERROR 10
Net.ether1000: INITIALIZATION ERROR 04
Pcmcia.generic sees both slots and also sees a NE2000 compatible card in slot 1.




Solution 1. Change /etc/config/pcmcia.1 (same as pcmcia.cfg)

      [resources]
      memory = 0xd4000-0xd5fff
      ports = 0x340-0x3ff  (was 0x320-0x33f)
      irqs = 11, 12        (was 5, 7, 11, 12)

2.  In the /etc/config, backup pcmcia.cards
    pin config > pcmcia.cards
    edit the pcmcia.cards
    remove the (width=16) entry in the config = ... lines
    There should be 4 of them.

3. Slay Pcmcia.generic
 
4. Start Pcmcia.generic -i0 and Net.ether1000
