Hallo,

we recentlry bought 2 x "Qlogic QLE3242 Dual Port" 10 Gbit card. After coding the transceivers with HPE we got a link.

But I was not able to find the card in linux. I already checked dmesg, lspci, lshw, /var/log/messages but I got no information about the card or that any drivers missing.
Also the bootup-screen does not show any error or broken hardware.

We have a Supermicro server with this board: X9DR7/E-(J)LN4F

Spec to the card: https://www.bargainhardware.co.uk/media/quick-specs/nic/Qlogic_3200_Series_Datasheet_NIC_246_245.pdf

Any idea why I can't see the card? Maybe drivers missing? But I can't install the drivers:
Code:
[INFRA] [11:27:21 root@fra1-pvec01-m03]{~}>dpkg -i  firmware-qlogic_20201218-3_all.deb
dpkg: regarding firmware-qlogic_20201218-3_all.deb containing firmware-qlogic:
 pve-firmware conflicts with firmware-qlogic
  firmware-qlogic (version 20201218-3) is to be installed.

dpkg: error processing archive firmware-qlogic_20201218-3_all.deb (--install):
 conflicting packages - not installing firmware-qlogic
Errors were encountered while processing:
 firmware-qlogic_20201218-3_all.deb

Code:
Linux fra1-pvec01-m03 5.3.10-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.3.10-1 (Thu, 14 Nov 2019 10:43:13 +0100) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Also I think even if the driver was not installed, I had got get an error like "driver missing", right?

Any idea?
