Solaris 10 x86 (6/06) doesn't recognize Intel PRO 1000 PCI Express Gigabit

Hi dear all!
Have problem with onboard Intel Dual port ( Intel 82563EB ) Gigabit Controller on supermicro 5000P(Blackford) chipset's board
X7DB8R-8 under Solaris 10 x86 6/06.
Solaris 10 doesn't recognize this onboard controllers.
And drivers on Intel & Sun web sites aren't available.
In what way can I make work these onboard network cards under Solaris 10?
Thanks all in advance who responds.

HI Sam,
No at this time, i haven't issue for this problème.
But, i try intel card soon with a mac pro.
The xserve detecte the card, but not recognize the drivers for it.
maybe one day, i have good new.

Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card

Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card. Does it need specific drivers?

I did a little searching for that card. The more I looked at it the more I felt that, yes, it needs a driver, and no, one doesn't exist for the Mac. So it looks like that is a card only supported for PC's. But to be sure, if I were in your place at this point, I would contact MSI directly.

How to install driver for Intel Pro 1000 PCI Network-card

Hello,
I just bought the a.m. Intel Pro 1000 Network adapter, but I don't know at all how to install the driver for Solaris 10.
The installation instructions delivered from Intel didn't help me at all, because I can't uncompress the INTCGigae.pkg and the INTCGigaE.tar.z files.
I copied them to /tmp and folllowed Intel's Installlation Instructions.
Please keep in mind I am new to Solaris 10, with no Linux/Unix experience, when helping me.
Thanks in advance for help and assistance.

Hi!
And what happens if you install the driver from the Toshiba WLAN portal:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan
I still dont know what you mean with Askey for Toshiba
You should try to install the driver manually. Choose in device manager the WLAN card, right click and select Update Driver. Choose the advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself and navigate to the folder where you have stored the downloaded driver.

Please Help: Intel Pro 1000 NIC not detected by Solaris 10

Hi there,
I just installed Solaris 10 in my Dell Dimension 8400 w/ an Intel Pro 1000 Gigabit on-board NIC. However, the network doesn't work. I checked "ifconfig -a" and only lo0 showed up. Anybody can give me any instruction to make it work? I guess I need to install the driver (e1000g?) first.
I'm totally new for Solaris... (I used Fedora Linux for a while though). Thanks a lot for you help!

Network card: e1000g (Intel PRO/1000 MT) did not working properly

Hi to everyone!
I'm having some strange trouble.
All computers attached to one DLink gigabit switch
Server #1:
nf4-based motherboard, Intel PRO/1000 MT net card, onboard net card (forcedeth driver used) Ubuntu Linux 2.6.25 kernel version.
All just working.
Server #2:
nf6-based motherboard, same Intel net card, SunOS 5.11 snv_86.
All just working.
Server #3:
Same as server's #1 nf4-based motherboard. Same onboard card. Same SunOS 5.11 snv_86 as server #2 have installed.
Its work. BUT..
Intel card is not working as expected.
It is seen by system. It is properly up and running. It is sending packent and receiving packets. Ierrs=Oerrs=Collis=Queue=0.
But thru e1000g0 interface no one computer can reach this one, and from server #3 no one computer is seen thru e1000g0. Exept...
Except two old Sunray1 devices (attached to the same switch for testing purposes)! But even these devices seen only by arp requests, and is not pingable.
It is some mistery, but if I turn on jubmo frames, these rays got a picture from SRSS, testing on this sevrer! Not for long, heh, they hung up fast, but this is proof a physical connection :)
So, I can not disable onboard network card on Server #3 - server becoming unreachable :(
I know, those network cards must work on Solaris - as they did it on server #2. I know, those network cards work with my nf4-based motherboards - as they did it on server #1.
But I can't uderstand, whait is going on with e1000g driver on server #3!
P.S. Kernel driver e1000g settings are the same. All difference from servers #2 and #3 is: #2 had Intel netcard installed then Solaris was setting up, and #3 had Intel netcard installed later. All netcards are working (I trying to swap them from one computer to another - did not change anything).

*) #3 thinks it is sending, but a NIC/driver error prevents it.NIC is fully health. It is tested on another PC. Driver error - or driver's bad implementation - is the one I'm thinking.
*) #3 has a bad transmit pair of wires (would affect all communication)This patchcord works w/o problems on other PCs and even on onboard NIC of server #3.
*) Network problemsHeh :)
*) Firewall or other device is dropping the ARP repliesIt is some very stealthy and very selective firewall, affecting only external NICs :)
BTW, then cord is attached to NIC, it sends "who has this IP" requests, asking to be shure there will not be an IP conflict. No one seen this requests.
*) #1 has a NIC/driver error preventing it from seeing the reply.Only for send from #3? It is like a firewall on #3 :) And, there is more PCs, not only #1-#3. No one can see #3's replays (or asks), not only #1..
I'm repeating: this PC works in network now on onboard NIC w/o problems. But onboard NIC is only 100 Mb/s, and we need 1 Gb/s.
I was thinking, Solaris took wrong MAC for NICs - but not, ifconfig shows the same MACs as marked on NICs.
Even more, yesterday i plumbed e1000g1 - second Intel NIC in server #3. And I was surprised - it worked perfectly!
But I make "touch /reconfigure; init 6" - and after reboot, no one of two Intel NICs working again :( They both have the same behavior - no one can see packets they sends.)
I even try to restrict connection on 100 Mb/s by driver's .conf modify - it works, link become yellow instead of green (take a note, NIC is able to "speak" properly with switch!), but all other stay the same.
Strange, really strange behavior. More strange is a fact this NICs work on another instance of same SunOS, but on different motherboard, while the same MB with same NIC is working w/o problems under Ubuntu. Looks like some bug in Solaris driver.

The Connect from Intel Pro/1000 T to 1000base-t Port on Catalyst 4000 (WS-X4412-2GB-T= module) Not Working Properly

The connect from Intel Pro/1000 T to 1000base-t port on Catalyst 4000 (WS-X4412-2GB-T= module) is not working properly. The Intel Pro/1000 T NIC connects to a 10/100 OK. Auto-negotiation is set at both ends. We can successfully ping across the link. However performance is so poor as to make the connection unusable.

When an Intel Pro/1000 T NIC is connected to a Catalyst switch, the customer may see poor network connections or excessive numbers of dropped packets. The problem arises when a module with a TBI interface transmits an odd byte packet to a receiver with a Gigabit Media Independent Interface (GMII).
The interoperability issue is a result of the implementation of Carrier Extension. Carrier Extension is detailed in sub section 35.2.3.5 in the IEEE 802.3 specification. Carrier Extension can be used to pad the last byte of a packet, so the packet is aligned on an even numbered boundary.

Gigabit EtherChannel between 6509 and Intel Pro/1000 MTx

I am trying to configure gigabit etherchannel to connect our backup server with a 6509. The Intel Pro/1000 MT nic in the server has two gigabit ports and supports teaming using LACP. I have configured two gig ports on the 6509 as layer 2 etherchannel ports ( channel-group 2 mode active ). The switch ports always show up as disabled. I can't seem find any documentaion on connecting server to switch using etherchannel ( although the Intel Pro MT nic documentaion does mention it ). Does anyone have experience doing this ?

We always just use load balancing on the Intel NICs and do nothing with the switch but make sure that the ports are in the correct vlan.
We have been using this for over 3 years flawlessly.
Our switches are a Cat4006 and Cat4506.

Intel Pro/1000

Hi,
A probably silly question follows.
I was given an Intel Pro/1000 Gigabit Ethernet adapter ( 1000BASE-SX )
and I was wondering if I can fit it to a Sun Ultra 30. I plan to buy another
Sun workstation soon ( probably a Blade 1000 or 2000, will see ), will it
fit there?
( I am after a Sun adapter but just in case... )
Regards,
Nick.

Ops!
Thank you for your reply. :-)

Intel pro/1000 CT Speed Issue

Has anyone experienced a drop to 10MBPS from 100MBPS using the Intel pro/1000 CT adapter on the Neo2 865P? If I manually set it to 100 MBPS it says "Network Cable Unplugged". Very strange since it was running at 100 MBPS for a week.

Lenovo/IBM 8113-d5u + Intel 945 + Intell Pro 1000 PM

We recently received some boxes from Lenovo part number 8113-d5u. They use
the Intell 945 chipset and have an integrated Intel Pro 1000 PM on a PCIE bus.
When we PXE boot it fails to find drivers for ethernet. This happens
during the loading of linux.2. We added e1000.ko to the list of drivers to
load in /etc/nwdriverList but this does not work.
Error message on PXE boot is:
"Unable to detect network card. Check documentation for list of supported
cards."
From dmesg when loading the e1000 module:
e1000: no version magic, tainting kernel.
Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - version 5.6.10.1-k2
Copyright (c) 1999-2004 Intel Corporation.
This board is the first board we've had with a PCIE connected ethernet
controller.
We are using a modified PXE image (from Novell forge with SATA support),
but the same error happens on the vanilla one from Novell.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Unsure if you mean the same as we have here using IBM T60 and M52, added
the latest intel driver to our imaging environment and it worked. Trying
to load to forge but can't see where to load. Using Zfd 4 SP6.
I had to build a Linux box to create the driver file, used Redhat 7.3 so
that we had an old version of GCC to compile.
Drop me an email if you want me to send our linux.1 and linux.2 or just
the e1000.o
Remove the __ to email me
Thanks

P35 Platinum - Intel PRO 1000 MT Network Adapter problem

Greetings.
Found out very strage thing - installation of "Intel PRO 1000 MT Network Adapter" in any PCI slot disabled onboard Intel raid controller! :(
If this card installed Intel Matrix Storage Manager screen do not appear in boot process and Raid do not listed in Boot Sequence bios options, instead
I can see Network Adapter in this list. I tryed "Boot from othe devices" option, bus it not work too.
So with this adapter installed I'm not able to boot from raid.
Currently I use bios version 1.4
Any idea how to solve this?
P.S. Installation of old 3COM 3C905CX-TX-M Adapter did not have such effect, but there is no Win x64 drivers for it.

Hi Maesus,
Thanks, I did and filled information about my computer configuration.
Hope it'll help solve the problem.
AaronYuri, thans go reply.
But maybe it's some misundestanding - when I say that installation of Intel adapter in PCI slot "disabled onboard Intel raid controllr" it does not mean that raid controller disabled in bios settings - settings in "Integrated Peripherals->On-chip ATA devices" are the same (PCI IDE BusMaster = Enabled, Raid mode = RAID), but it's looks like bios "did not see" raid controller - it disappers from list of devices to boot from and I did not see screen of Intel Matrix in boot proces (this screen alwais presents if controller switched in raid mode)

Windows Vista doesn't recognize Mac Pro RAM

I have installed Windows Vista Business on my Mac Pro using Boot Camp, and have found some anomalies that seem strange. It is basically working well (for Windows....).
1. I installed this on a 500Gb HD on my Mac Pro. This machine is a fully configured box doing video editing, with extensive AV files. It has all four drive bays filled, 3 of them with 1Tb drives, the thrid with a single 500Gb drive. I was a bit surprised to find that Boot Camp won't allow partitioning of its OSX installed boot HD beyond a Mac Partition and the Boot Camp paritition, or a secondary entire HD dedicated to Windows. This is not very practical with these large drives, since even though HD storage is fairly cheap, I don't want to give Microsoft more than maybe 100gb on a drive. All of the other HDs are partitioned for multiple parititions, which I need to preserve. The OSX boot drive has 3 OSX partitions already installed. Any ideas on how to do this better? Yes, I know I can use Parallels or VMWare, and do, but find that native Boot Camp Windows is better.
2. Windows Vista is running on a dedicated HD in Boot Camp on this machine (to all appearances running fine), but doesn't recognize more than 2Gb of RAM on my machine which is configured with 10Gb of RAM which is recognized appropriately in OSX. What am I missing?
I would appreciate any help on a partitioning scheme that works to support multiple partitions on these large drives, and a reason that only 2Gb out of 10Gb of RAM is recognized by Windows Vista Business in Boot Camp.
Thanks!!!

Thanks for your response.
I am running in Boot Camp, which runs in native mode without emulation. The advantage is that if you are going to run Windows, which is my goal, it doesn't have the overhead of OSX. Indeed, most Mac machines are among the fastest Windows machines available for equivalent hardware when running Windows in native mode. There are a few more arcane advantages to running natively, particularly in terms of connecting to external devices. There is no background RAM overhead when run natively.
Thanks....

Intel PRO/1000 Pt Dual Port Server Adapter (EXPI9402PT) on TS140

Hello,
Recently, I purchased TS140 server (Xeon) and tried to install Intel EXPI9402PT adapter into the system. When I installed the card, the system just hung on "ThinkServer" logo. I first thought that the card was bad so I tested on my other desktop and I verified that the card was recognized and working properly.
I was searching my issue on the Internet and I found that there are subjects regarding "BIOS whitelist" which limits only to Lenovo brand devices. Is it true to TS140 server also? And, the server only supports I350-T2 or T4 ethernet cards?
Thanks,
Solved!

That is potentially bogus claim. Non-validated doesn't mean not working, just Lenovo didn't test them. BTW if that was true, cheap realtek NIC should lock up server too, but it does not ...

Macbook Pro running Maverick doesn't recognize Officejet Pro 8600 Plus as a scanner

I am a new user to the Macbook, transitioning from Windows. I started with a preexisting Offciejet Pro 8500 but couldn't get it to work and discovered there were no Maverick drivers. I then bought and installed the Officejet Pro 8600 Plus wirelessly. I downloaded the HP software package for Mac. I can print. I can scan from the printer to the computer. I can use the HP Scan utility (although the HP apps folder also contains the 8500 apps and I'm not sure which is which). However, under System Preferences Printers and Scanners it only lists the 8600 as a printer and faxer; it does not appear under Scanner. And I cannot access it using PDF Converter for Mac, either. And it refuses to scan an entire legal page, stopping at the letter page limits, whether I use the document feeder or just place it on the glass.
( I also cannot figure out how to set up Network scanning - it asks for a folder address and I am not familiar with iOS nomenclature.)

Hi lahrm
I understand you are having issues scanning on the Maverick.
I will be happy to assist you with this.
I have included a document for how to scan on the Maverick.
I have provided a document for connection issues.
