Try modprobe 3c59x From the kernel source help line: CONFIG_VORTEX: This option enables driver support for a large number of 10mbps and 10/100mbps EISA, PCI and PCMCIA 3Com network cards: "Vortex" (Fast EtherLink 3c590/3c592/3c595/3c597) EISA and PCI "Boomerang" (EtherLink XL 3c900 or 3c905) PCI "Cyclone" (3c540/3c900/3c905/3c980/3c575/3c656) PCI and Cardbus "Tornado" (3c905) PCI "Hurricane" (3c555/3cSOHO) PCI If you have such a card, say Y and read the Ethernet-HOWTO, available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. More specific information is in Documentation/networking/vortex.txt and in the comments at the beginning of drivers/net/3c59x.c. If you want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want), say M here and read Documentation/modules.txt as well as Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
