Misidentifying a Recognized Device

1. Run the prtconf -D command to see if your modem or serial device is erroneously recognized as a memory card.

   If the device is incorrectly recognized as a memory card, for example, the output of the prtconf command could show:

   # prtconf -D . . . pcic, instance #0 (driver name: pcic) . . . memory, instance #0 (driver name: pcmem) pcram, instance #0 (driver name: pcram)

2. Use the Configuration Assistant to identify the memory resource conflict, and add correct information for the device on the View/Edit Devices menu.

   The problem is typically a resource conflict between device memory settings. See "Using the Configuration Assistant to Identify and Correct Problems" in the Configuring Devices module in Information Library for Solaris 2.6 (Intel Platform Edition).

3. To work properly with the Solaris operating environment, all devices must be accounted for, even those the Solaris environment does not support. The Configuration Assistant software accounts for all devices in your system.
