Joe,
   In the future you might want to refrain from sending HTML formatted
email. I've found that many Linux folks won't read it!

   Doesn't bother me though.

   You may not have it in your modules.conf file if you actually tried to
make it a module. Sometimes it's best to build the drivers as modules first,
get things working, and then build a final kernel where the driver is built
in. Just a thought.

Subject: [gentoo-user] network question...



Hello,

    I am in the process of installing Gentoo on my laptop (HP ze5185) and I=
 have a networking question.  I had a great network connection with the l=
iveCD, but now my network card isn't recognized / installed.

    When I do an 'ifconfig' all I see is the lo setting, not an eth0.  At f=
irst I thought that this was because I had compiled the wrong network dri=
vers in the kernel, so I went back and changed it to the National Semicon=
ductor one listed on the kernel config screen (the network card is Nation=
al Semiconductor Corporation DP83815 (MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller.  th=
is is internal - not a pcmcia card).  However after all this I am still u=
nable to connect to the internet.  Does anyone know what I might be doing=
 wrong?  Thanks for any and all help!

 - Joe :)
