Arca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of a new release of our MultiMac NIC driver package.
This is a maintenance release of the MultiMac drivers. It contains some minor updates to the system libraries that affects system stability and reliability and applies to all drivers. Specifically this update fixes a defect that affected accessing devices that use port I/O. Port I/O is only used on a few old NICs. Modern NICs do not use port I/O so this update will not affect most systems. If your network device is currently working, you will not see any change with this update. However if you have an older network card that is supposed to work but doesn’t, this update might fix that. This update is recommended for all users.
As always, please read the .txt file that comes with each driver and also provided on the wiki. If you have problems with any of the drivers in this release, please read the Debugging Guide in the wiki first. If your problem cannot be resolved with the Debugging Guide, then the problem should be reported to the ticketing system.
More information about the MultiMac NIC drivers may be found in the wiki.
