Hi,
I was finally able to try the two methods of changing the module for eth0.
Unfortunately, even if I attempt to save and then restart X (logout -login)
the old module reappears. Perhaps a little more information would help. My
new LM10 Official installation is dual boot on a Dell Inspiron 9100. It has
a 3.2 Ghz processor, a 128 Mb ATI Radeon M11 (recognized as a M10) and the
network device is a Broadcom 4401. On a linux-laptop site they suggest that
the module selected during installation (B44) will not function and that the
TG3 (Broadcom Tigon) module does the trick.

I tried manually changing the eth0 references in modprobe.conf (Stephen) and
modules.conf  and run depmod -a (Mikkel). The Broadcom module, B44 is still
there when I restart X. Is there something else that needs to be done or
that I am doing wrong to begin with?

Thanks and regards,
Bill W.


Bill; Try turning off APIC and Plug 'n' Play in your BIOS, then restart into Mandrake and redo the NIC setup. That might solve it.
