I have two cards (not the same brand). I took them and swapped them, same result. I looked at the /proc/pci file and the don't look like they are in contention. When I get home I will take them both out and put them in as you suggest and see what happens. Thanks for the ideas.

Put one back into the machine, make sure it is seated correctly, and boot. See if it works. Take it out and put in the other card, again making sure it is seated correctly. Boot again and see if it works. Chances are either both cards are not playing friendly with each other (both busmaster or something?), or one was not seated well in the PCI slot. Try using different slots and see how you do. Tom Veldhouse veldy at veldy.net tclug-list mailing list tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
