Hi!
I'm having serious trouble making a TR card work on DU. The card
is a Thomas Conrad TC4048, which was delivered with NT/Alpha drivers. :-<
Now they say from the local dec that this *IS* supported in DU 3.2D
(which we run), but no help on what can be wrong.

I've seen genvmunix miss hardware before, so I'm not surprised.
If anybody could verify that this card actually works in DU, and how
to configure it (the correct line in the config file).

The manual page mentions the tra driver, which is for a turbochannel
card. We tried this in case the same driver would support the TC4048
as well, but no luck.

DEC has come up with another TR card, DW110 (ISA), but it seems to have
been dropped....

Any help appreciated....

regards, Harald
