How do I add an undetected Intel 82559 NIC to my Sparc Solaris 9 install?

All,
I bought a combo LSI SCSI and Intel NIC card for my Ultra 5. I'm running Solaris 9 9/04. The card was added after the os was installed. The OS is currently using the hme0 adapter detected on the system but I need to multi-home this system.
first I did a "touch /reconfigure" and a "boot -r" when that failed. Then I checked the net and found the driver ought to be iprb. according to the manpage for iprb, there should be a /kernel/drv/iprb entry but there is none on my system. I tried to `devfsadm -i iprb` anyhow but I got a "failed to attach" although that's the right driver. I suspect that some magic is needed in /etc/devlink.tab
So The card is not detected but prtconf seems to see it as an network device. I'm at a loss on how to proceed to get the nic recognized. The scsi is working just fine. Here is what I know:
-- begin `prtconf -vp` snippit

All,
I've found the problem. It seems that Solaris 9 does not ship a driver for this. Anyhow, I found a GPL driver at:
http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/
Use the "tu" driver. Although the chip is clearly marked as an Intel 82559 it responds to the tu (DEC Chip 211x) and not the Intel ife driver.
So that others can find this solution, I have added these keywords:
lsi IntraServer ITI-6110U2-X
Ebay combo Ultra2 SCSI NIC
LSI/Sun Dual Ultra2-LVD/SE SCSI Ethernet Combo PCI Card

  • How do I add my Custom Workflow Activity to FIM 2010 R2 SP1 installed on Windows 2012 server?

    Hellos.
    I have tried and failed to add my custom.dll into the Windows Server 2012  GAC.
    We have a version of FIM 2010 R2 Sp1 running on Windows Server 2008 R2 and that was no problem. There seemed to be a gacutil.exe present on the system which added my assembly.
    I cannot find gacutil.exe on the Windows 2012 Server.
    I have downloaded and installed Windows SDK for Windows 8. However, when I try the gacutil.exe /i <myCustom.dll> nothing seems to happen.
    Are there any guidelines how to add custom workflow activities to FIM when installed on a Windows Server 2012 system?
    TIA
    *HH

    Well yes. It is fine when FIM is hosted on Windows Server 2008 R2.My difficulty is that I am using FIM 2010 R2 Sp1 and Windows Server 2012. No GACutility executable.
    However, the problem has been resolved. Powershell can be used to modify the assemblies.
    I opened a RunAs Administrator PS session. My assembly is in folder c:\Temp
    Using Windows Explorer I browsed the folder c:\windows\assembly and noted the System.EnterpriseServices entries: version (2.0.0.0) and public key token (b03f5f7f11d50a3a)
    (My version is 2.0.0.0 because when installing FIM and SharePoint 2013 the instructions I used suggested setting .Net version to be 2.0)
    These powershell commands got me going...
    PS C:\temp> [System.Reflection.Assembly]::Load("System.EnterpriseServices, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a")
    GAC    Version        Location
    True   v4.0.30319     C:\Windows\Microsoft.Net\assembly\GAC_64\System.EnterpriseServices\v4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50...
    PS C:\temp> $publish = New-Object System.EnterpriseServices.Internal.Publish
    PS C:\temp> $publish.GacInstall("c:\temp\RunPowershellLibrary.dll")
    PS C:\temp>
    PS C:\temp>
    PS C:\temp> iisreset
    Amazingly I can see the assembly RunPowershellLibrary in my Windows 2012 GAC. :-)
    Also, what is more cheering is that the custom activity actually works with FIM 2010 R2 Sp1.

  • How do I add more GB to my iMac?

    I'm hoping this is the right place to put this (I'm a bit inexperienced in the whole hardware-software department, so really don't know what pertains to what).  I've got an iMac which I got back in 2008, and am looking to update it to Mountain Lion.  However, that apparently requires 2 GB, and it's told me I haven't got enough.  So, question is, how do I add more GB so that I can actually update it to Mac OS X Mountain Lion?  It's got Snow Leopard at the moment (10.6.8).
    Here're some of my computer details:
    Model Name - iMac
    Identifier - iMac 7, 1
    Processor - Intel Core 2 Duo
    Speed - 2.4 GHz
    L2 Cache - 4 MB
    Memory - 1 GB
    Thanks all.

    Your model supports:
    Maximum Memory
    6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    Two - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMMs
    To upgrade you will need to purchase two new memory modules to replace the ones you now have installed. You can purchase memory at OWC or DataMem. OWC also has video tutorials on how to install memory in most Macs.

    Janet,
    This is why the question rkaufmann87 asked about your model is so important:
    [click chart to enlarge if needed]
    The list covers the early iMacs with Intel processors that shipped with either OS 10.4 or 10.5 and have only two RAM slots. As you can see, some have limits to what version of OSX you can install. If the step rkaufmann requests does not narrow down your model, you can do one more thing.
    While the "About this Mac" window is open, click the "More Info..." button at the bottom of that window to get this (assuming you are really running OS 10.5.8 as shown in your profile):
    The code I've indicated with the red arrow corresponds to the codes in the second column on the chart. Post the code your computer reports--again don't post a serial number.
    If your iMac shipped with only 1GB RAM, I fear it is one of the earliest models that cannot be upgraded all the way to Yosemite.

    Hi,
    Try mydigitallife forums. There are threads about modding BIOSes and accessing the advanced option. It's not recommended by HP so you have to go somewhere else as the modding will cancel your warranty if something goes wrong.

  • How do I add a delete website back in to the iWeb Program?

    How do I add a delete website back in to the iWeb program?
    I still have the files there are stored on the hard drive.

    If you deleted the site in iWeb and saved, then your site is lost.
    If you have not made a backup of the Domain.sites file before you deleted the site in iWeb, then you have nothing to fall back on.
    There is unfortunately no way of importing an existing site into iWeb - it just doesn't work that way.
    Your only option then is to cut and paste existing material from your published site back into iWeb.
