I've got a suggestion that might work for you. Drakconf detects hardware changes when a system is booted. What you could do is shut the system down, pull the network card, boot it back up, answer the configuration questions such that there is no network card, and then shut the system down again. Reinstall the network card and boot the system. Drakconf should go thru a detection routine and your network card will be redetected. If the system cannot then detect the card properly, you are left with two choices. Either get a supported card, or manually configure the driver that you actually need into the config files with vi. Assuming that it will work with your card. I can help with the manual config changes if you need it. Let me know how it goes. :) --LX -- 같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같� Linux Mandrake 9.1 Kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk *Catch Star Trek Enterprise, Wednesdays on UPN* 같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같
