  I am tring to use the AT&T Starlan 10 Ethernet card with fibler optic 
network interface for the Novell File server v2.15.  Right after I connect
the machine to the network, I get the following message:

Abend, General protection interrupt.

I did try to set the card with other setting for the parameter like i/o address
Interrupt number etc but not much help.  When I replace the fiber card  with
a another ethernet card from other vendor and it work ok.

  Is anyone have any experince with the AT&T starlan ethernet card?  Any
information would be very helpful.  I try to avoid to contact my AT&T 
sale rep, he might have the answer for me in the next century (:-

Thanks,
