Title QNX4 support for NetGear FA310TX.
Ref. No. QNX.000009476
Category(ies) Network
Issue We are using the NetGear FA310TX Rev-D2 card. Running nettrap query, it correctly finds the Tulip driver, but when attempting to start the driver the whole of QNX freezes. When starting the driver with the -vvvvv switches it complained about not being plugged in. After realizing the cable was not plugged in ;) we plugged it in and the driver then said it was fine.

We are using 4.25 patch C which supports this card? The main chip is LC82C169C.
Solution The driver has a bug, for this revision of the chip, which does not like it when the card is not plugged into the ethernet.  This will be fixed in the next patch release.
