Looking at the boot listing coming from my Alix box, I see:
pci0: <encrypt/decrypt, entertainment crypto> at device 1.2 (no driver
attached)
vr0: <VIA VT6105M Rhine III 10/100BaseTX> port 0x1000-0x10ff mem
0xe0000000-0xe0
vr0: Quirks:
0x2
miibus0: <MII bus> on
vr0
ukphy0: <Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface> on
miibus0
ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX,
auto
vr0: Ethernet address:
00:0d:b9:12:83:98
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0xe0040000-0xe004ffff irq 9 at device 12.0 on
pci0
ath0: Ethernet address:
00:80:48:7e:13:62
ath0: mac 7.8 phy 4.5 radio 5.6
The Ethernet addresses look more like MAC addresses. Is this just a
cosmetic problem, or indicative of my basic problem (no radio transmit)
Best regards
