Subject: [?] PCI BIOS masks some IDs to prevent OS detection?
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2006 14:45:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060113144529.56fa3166@darjeeling.triplehelix.org> (raw)

Hi,

I'd like to tap some of the Linux-PCI gurus about something weird I've
been helping a friend with...

He recently installed a PCI RAID card, and ever since, his Ethernet
card stopped working. Further investigation revealed that his
Realtek 8139 (10ec:8139) card had become 10ec:0139, and his 3Com Cyclone
card had become 10b7:1055 from 10b7:9055.

Did the PCI bus decide to mask those PCI IDs to prevent some sort of
resource conflict that would ensue from loading an appropriate driver
for these devices?
