modprobe simple reports that it cannot find the module. How do I proceed further? I've located the source for the module in the Kernel source however, I'm unsure as to how to go about compiling this is introducing it into my kernel.

If you are using some other kernel, you will need to make sure that you've got that module compiled (or compiled into your kernel). To see if you have that module, type: ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/ and look through the files listed for one called 8139too.o to install a kernel module, you must switch to root, then type: modprobe <name of module> for example: modprobe 8139too you may need to insert the mii module as well. good luck! -davidc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
