Apologies for not getting back earlier. I've downloaded the Oct 3 Debian testing PPC, and I'm still having the same problem. lsmod does not show the amd74xx driver loaded. modprobe doesn't work either; the driver is not in /lib/modules. I appreciate the help you guys are offering. We've been stuck using SuSE on these blades for two years. I'm *greatly* looking forward to the day I can use a good OS on them. :-) Mat -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
