MX is supported only D or later cards.
If you want to use M3F cards and D or F card under Myricom environment,
you must use GM 2.1.x.
Please see as following pages;
    http://www.myri.com/scs/linux-gm2.html


If you use PM/myrinet2k, please try to use PM/Myrinetxp.
Please change type to myrinetxp and -firmware:file to
/opt/score/share/lanai/lanaixp.mcp In /opt/score/etc/scorehosts.db.)
lanaixp.mcp include firmware for M3 cards, but I don't test it.
