If anyone read my previous message, I just installed Debian, very bare
boned.  I'd like to begin updating my system as well as downloading all
my backup files off of my server.  So during the install I configured
PCMCIA with all the Intel defaults.  My system was then able to connect
through my ethernet card to the internet and install all the updates. 
During the downloads however, an error would keep popping up here and
there between fetching files.

	eth0: Tx error, status 4 (FID=0157)

The previous is one example of many, the only part that would change was
what FID was equal to.  It happens each and every time apt-get fetches
files.  Any suggestions?  I also have a PCMCIA wireless card,
suggestions or links on how I might go about installing that?  Thanks in
advance, and the following are my system specs.
Dell 8200
2GHz processor
512 RAM
30 GIG hard drive
Nvidia GeForce 4 Go 64MB
Thanks again.

Hi Matthew

I have EXACTLY the same problem with my laptop (which is also a Dell 
Inspiron 8200 with the TrueMobile 1150 wireless card)... and I finally 
gave up. I simply was not able to fix these annoying messages, but in 
Konsole or Gnome Terminal these lines don't appear, so I think I will 
have to live with this :-(

I hope there are more skilled people around here ;-)

Saludos
Emilio
