I have a Linksys LNE100TX in a Mandrake 7.0-2 box that I use as a samba
server on our internal network. Frankly I had no trouble configuring
it. It just worked automatically after the install. Here's the card
settings from my machine. Let me know if you want anything else. (But
I'm not the network guru here.)


Here's "cat /proc/pci" (Nothing special here. It's about halfway down.)
