The LAN port is integrated into the motherboard. It'sn't new and I don't have any docs for it. According to PCI:- Bus 0 (PCI), Device Number 1, Device Function 1 Vendor 1039h Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) Device 0900h SiS900 10/100 Ethernet Adapter Command 0007h (I/O Access, Memory Access, BusMaster) Status 0290h (Has Capabilities List, Supports Back-To-Back Trans., Medium Timing) Revision 83h, Header Type 00h, Bus Latency Timer 20h Minimum Bus Grant 34h, Maximum Bus Latency 0Bh Self test 00h (Self test not supported) PCI Class Network, type Ethernet Subsystem ID 09001039h SiS900 10/100 Ethernet Adapter (Generic ID) Subsystem Vendor 1039h Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) Address 0 is an I/O Port : E400h..E403h Address 1 is a Memory Address (0-4GiB) : DD102000h System IRQ 11, INT# C Expansion ROM of 128 KiB decoded by this card, currently disabled > Once you know what the NIC chipset is, you can check the GenPak > documentation or on os2warp.be to see if there any OS/2 native drivers > (or at the chipset manufacturers site of course).
