Anyway, the relevant > lines of my /etc/modules are mii > 8139too io=0x1000 irq=0x10 I use the rtl8139 by putting both mii 8139too in my /etc/modules file. (Dont put the io and irq parameters, they shouldn't only be used for ISA cards, as far as I know) I have found also, that it is imperative to use the modules that were compiled for the exact version of the kernel you are using. When you try insmod /lib/modules/8139too.o from a command line after you boot, what messages do you see? (Make sure the mii module is loaded first!) _______________________________________________ Leaf-hardware mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-hardware
