try to enable pnp in kernel and include in the kernel the driver for your card (ne2000) run dmesg and chech in the output if the kernel has detected your card. If not go to step 2 :-) compile the support for your card as a module reboot with your new kernel use isapnnp to setup your card :-) (pnpdump > isapnp.conf.sample copy isapnp.conf.sample in /etc/isapnp.conf and edit it to suit your needs ) then insmod the module for ne2000 with the parameters for io and int from the isapnp.conf and then ifconfig ... > I'm runing slack 9.1. the command lsmod says there is > a isa-pnp (wich could be my card), isa-pnp is maybe the module for isa-pnp not for your card you will have to have a module ne2k i think > ifconfig only > detects a loopback (wich i don't really know what is, > but is not of any help) and i have no eth0 (wich seems > fine, since i have not been able to install any, but i > figure i need to do so, or not?) ifconfig *doesn't detect*. ifconfig configures network interfaces and displays information about this configuration. man isapnp man pnpdump man ifconfig might help you :-) > Thanks. > By the way, the answers i got on the last post help > quite a lot, if not for solving the problem (wich was > imposible since i did not ask for the correct > information) for learning a few interesting things.
