Thanks for the suggestion. I read the same thing in ifconfig's man page.
However, the option doesn't seem to work. I have tried:
ifconfig eth0 media 10baset up <- gives a SIOCSIFMAP: Operation not
supported error
ifconfig eth0 10baset up <- gives a 10baset: Host name lookup failure
error
While searching the internet, I have found that other people have trouble
with the [media type] syntax of ifconfig. Does anybody know how to get
this option to work with ifconfig?
Also, if I decide to change to a different ethernet card, is installation
just a matter of using rmmod and insmod? Or, will I need to make other
changes?
Thanks again!
Dave
