(sorry I'm new with debian) When you say you're new with Debian, do you mean Linux in general or just the Debian distribution? The sk98lin module should be included with the stock Debian kernel on your system. You can type modprobe sk98lin at the root prompt to confirm this. If the module isn't available you'll get a FATAL: Module x not found error. Anyway, adding a module that doesn't exist to /etc/modules won't cause any problems, other than a Module x not found error on bootup.

(sorry I'm new with debian) You already have it, you simply have to tell the system to load it whenever it boots. You do this by adding a line of text to the file /etc/modules which contains the text sk98lin To do this you have to be root as this is a protected file and then edit the file. The best way to get root privilege is to use sudo, but without a network installing it might be tricky. The easiest way to do this is to switch to a command line console (Alt-Ctrl-F1, use Alt-Ctrl-F7 to get back to your desktop) and log on as root using the password you set when installing. Now be VERY careful as root can modify anything and you could destroy your system. Pick a command line editor you are familiar with, if you are not familiar with any then I suggest nano. Move to the end of the file and add in a line as above and save it (if you are using name Ctrl-o). Now quit the editor (Ctrl-x for nano). To test whether you have done it right you will need to reboot. If you want to test that this is really the right module before you do this editing then you need to issue the following:- modprobe sk98lin Now use the ifconfig command to see if the ethernet interface is now avavailable:- ifconfig If you had issued this before the modprobe then it would only have shown details for the interface called lo. There should now be an interface which will almost certainly be called eth0. If it is not there then you need to look at the end of /var/log/syslog to look for error messages. The easiest way to do this is using the tail command:- tail -n 40 /var/log/syslog and let us know what is there that seems relevant to the driver. Once you have an interface then what you do depends on whether there is a DHCP server on the network. If there is it is quite easy, otherwise it is a little more complicated. But get to the stage that the module loaded correctly and then we can worry about setting up the network address etc. David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

The card is directly on the mainboard, it's a A8V Deluxe from Asus with gigabit ethernet. Load sk98lin. The A8V-Deluxe works fine here. A8V-E Deluxe is a different story, and I believe requires at lear 2.6.11 or 2.6.12 for the sk98lin driver to work. The plain A8V Deluxe works fine with much older kernels too. Just add sk98lin to /etc/modules to have it load at boot. Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Ethernet problem
Or, if it is not a pppoe (PPP-over-ethernet) dsl modem, and you are not getting dhcp addressing, you will need to set your IP address statically. To do this, edit the file /etc/network/interfaces with nano or another editor by typing: # nano /etc/network/interfaces as root. You can comment out what is there with the # character at the start of each line and add some lines at the end similar to: auto lo eth0 iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet static address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx broadcast xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Where you can replace xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with the appropriate addresses for each line which you should get from your ISP. You may not need to specify a broadcast address, in which case you may skip that line. The auto lo eth0 line tells the system to startup the local loopback interface (lo) and your network card (eth0) at boot. The iface lo inet loopback defines the lo interface. The iface eth0... and the rest define the eth0 interface which is your network card. If your PC is connected to a DSL-router instead of a dsl-modem, you may have DHCP, but it sounds like that is not the case. Hope this helps ya, Nicholas P.
