3c509 problems with 2.4.20 kernel
Hi, I just upgraded to 2.4.20 and my network stopped working... :( I Googled around and it looks like there have been quite a few changes with 2.4.20. At the moment the machine's running with a via-rhine card, but I'd like to get the 3c509 back again. I ran 'modprobe isa-pnp' and then 'modprobe 3c509'. It dies with: /lib/modules/2.4.20-3-686/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.20-3-686/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20-3-686/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20-3-686/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.o: insmod 3c509 failed There's nothing useful in dmesg or syslog. I edited /etc/modules.conf to add 'alias eth1 3c509' as the last line. There doesn't seem to be a /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/net-modules.txt file in this release so I don't know what to set 'options' to. Any suggestions?!

Thanks to those who offered suggestions. The final problem turned out to be that it had not included the 3c509.o in modules.dep, manually inserting it and rebooting caused it to run OK. Can anyone suggest why ? I installed with kernel 2.0.27 then upgraded to 2.0.30 via patches. I installed the modules via make modules ; make modules_install, is there something I missed ?

3C509 Problems
Help, I've got a problem with my 3C509 & Debian 1.2 (2.0.30 kernel). I've tried this card loaded in the kernel and also as a module. Until the last few weeks it has worked OK, but now it just won't load. I've not made any changes to the machine or Linux in the mean time (except re-compiling the kernel to try it as part of the kernel) I can manually load the module after boot time. Any suggestions of where to look ? I can run the card OK under Win 95, so I know the card is OK. -- -- Alex Monaghan Network Support Analyst, Royal Mail Anglia London Rd, Stevenage, SG1 1AA, UK Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] STD 01438 767081 Postline5811 7081 -- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
