In Win2k System, it is "Realtek RTL8139(A) PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter"...
but in Win98, it is "Realtek RTL8139/810X Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC"
The card is good for work with both of these system !
In Linux RedHat 6.2 System, after edit the setting of networking and run
"/etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart"
error messages : eth1 : Can't allocate a 65536 bytes receives ring
So, can you help me to fix the kind of problem ?
Very thank for your help !
Edward.
