Silicom parallel port chip
Hello list,
When cracking open a Compaq laptop base station I found this Silicom chip. It functions like a Ethernet pocket adapter on the parallel port interface. It's coded like: SILICOM SPIC 9862-069 147613-001 9422YAG I'm looking for information to get a Linux driver working on this laptop in order to use the Ethernet interface. I've tried the D-link drivers (also pocket adapters) to no avail. Thanx, Jaap |

It's coded like: SILICOM SPIC 9862-069 147613-001 9422YAG The "9422" is probably a YYWW date code. If so, then I suspect you may even have trouble finding Win9x drivers.

I'll give it a try. Anyone decompiling a NDIS driver? Thanx, Jaap |
