Which PCnet chip variant do you know. 1.2.13 doesnt know all the current variants of this chip. >I have no idea what to do next. The ethercard is ok (runs under windows) but >I am missing something under linux. Any suggestions? The AMD PC-Net shouldnt be a problem because everything is on the chip so a vendor can't really do much to make it non standard. There have been some with hardware problems but clearly yours is ok as it runs under windows.
