Server and regular motherboards PCI question

in Off-Topic
I have never work on a server so I am not sure exactly what kind of PCI slot they have.
I bought a Adaptec ANA-62044 NIC and my motherboard is an Intel motherboard. My motherboard has 3 PCI slots, and when I installed the NIC onto my motherboard, the last portion of the NIC's pins are sticking out. Meaning, it is too long. The NIC seated well, but the last part is not.
Would the ANA-62044 NIC work even though the last portion is not connected?
Thanks

Optionstiersten Member Posts: 4,505The Adaptec card is a 64 bit PCI card and you've only got 32 bit PCI slots. You don't normally find 64 bit PCI slots on anything except servers and high end workstations.
It *should* work but thats assuming the card fits properly, nothing is in the way of the extra connector and your motherboard complies with PCI 2.1.
TL;DR is "depends" -
Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723Yes, it is seated properly on the PCI slot. So it should work then. The last portion is bothering me.Studying:

You get similar things happening for PCI Express as well. Some PCI Express slots are open at one end and the chipset + card will just negotiate however many lanes are actually physically connected. The rest of the card edge connector just dangles out the end of the slot. -
Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723Ok cool. Thanks man.
I am more familiar with PCIe than PCI slots.Studying:

Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723When I have the ANA-62044 installed, the PC would just beep twice with no display, but everything turns on.
When I removed the NIC, the PC booted up just fine. Any idea why I can't boot with the ANA-62044 installed?Studying:

Adaptec say the ANA-62044 will work in a 32 bit slot but it has be PCI 2.1 compliant. -
Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723What motherboard do you have?

What type of beep is it? -
Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723Hmm. Not sure. Intel list that DH67CL board as PCI 2.3 compliant. The keying on the ANA-62044 say it is a universal card but the specs by Adaptec say it is a 5V card but that shouldn't be a problem even if it is 5V only.
What type of beep is it?
According to Intel, two beeps means no display.
I played in the BIOS, but I did not see any option about this. I think the PC is treating the NIC as a video card or something.Studying:

Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723Here's an update. I moved the NIC to the last PCI slot, and turned the PC on, it booted up normal; but the ifconfig is not recognising the NIC.
I don't know how to view the NIC ports on Linux. How do I do this under Ubuntu 10.10?
When I plugged an cat5e cable the led for that port tuned on. So it means it is working. Now, how do I install the drivers for this?Studying:

I don't use Ubuntu so I don't know the exact filenames of the logs since its configurable but look at /var/log/boot and /var/log/messages
As root:
tail -1000 /var/log/boot | less
tail -1000 /var/log/messages | less
dmesg | less -

Oh I still can't see my 62044 under Ubuntu. When I get home I'm going to check the dev folder.Studying:

"ifconfig -a" will show you all the network interfaces that are currently recognised.
"lspci" will show you everything that Linux can see on the PCI bus. -
Optionsthehourman Member Posts: 723I'm not at my home now, but I did run the ifconfig -a, sudo ifconfig, and they only showed my eth0 and lo.
When I get home, I'm gonna try the lspci. Is that the whole command "lspci"?Studying:

I manually gave an ip address to wlan0 in the /etc/network/interfaces. That is my Asus USB wireless adapter. For some reason I can't connect wirelessly to my network, and the wireless option in the system tray is greyed out. Regular ifconfig can't see the wlan0. I can ping it, though.
