PROBLEM:       A customer was getting a "Signature not found" error running
               an SMC PS110 in an IBM PS/2 Model 80 under NetWare 286
               v2.15.  We determined they had a conflict with the VGA
               memory address and had them choose another option.  The file
               server then came up and we loaded monitor and everything
               seemed fine until we tried logging in from an IBM PS/2 Model
               25 workstation.  We kept getting "File server not found"
               errors and suspected conflicts with the SMC 130e at the
               workstation.
  
SOLUTION:      After fruitless time spent trying to resolve the issue, we
               had them go back to the file server and type "CONFIG" and
               compare the information with what the IBM Reference was
               saying.  Surprisingly, the OS was configured for IRQ 2 and
               reference was indicating the card at IRQ 3.  We then made
               the appropriate change to the OS and all was well.  

               This has been reported to Engineering.
