subject: Tyan Trinity i875P

Does anybody have an experience with the Tyan Trinity i875P (maybe also 
known as S5101ANF)?  Especially with installing OS/2 (WSeB flavor)?

I've got a 3.0 GHz Pentium 4 processor and 1G RAM.

I've installed Mandrake Linux 9.0 and Windows 2000 on both of these 
without any problems, but WSeB has really been a fighting battle. 
Frequently, it traps on DOSCALL1.DLL, but if you disable the L1 and L2 
cache, it'll install until I can get FP3 installed, then I can re-enable 
the cache.

So far, I've got it installed and functional, but I guess my real 
problem lies with networking.  I've tried to install/configure a 3Com 
905C-TXM NIC.  It works OK with NetBIOS and communicates, but doesn't 
work with TCP/IP.  It doesn't ping anything else on the network nor does 
it ping itself.

I'm wondering if either the built-in RealTek RTK8100C NIC can be used (I 
found drivers for it on Hobbes, but haven't had a chance to try them 
yet) or if there's something that can be done to make the 3Com card work.

Any suggestions or insight to this motherboard/NIC problem would be 
appreciated.

Craig.
