(just to add a bit) If it doesn't tell you the exact chipset, it may give you a vendor and model ID - there's a good chance you can figure out the chipset from this.

Re: NIC identification
Dave Sherohman wrote: As I suspected the kernel is not trying to load a kernel module for the NIC, everything else looks OK. My suggestion is to contact Dell and query them about the onboard NIC chip set. They may have the specs listed on their website. It is likely that the board is made to their specs (saves them big bucks) and the NIC may only be identifiable by the chip set name and model. Alternatively if you have windows also installed check in the start; control panel; settings; systems; menu and look at the network card setting there...that should show the card/chip set and model number as a driver. Look for Realtek, 3com, intel, i.e. something with a ethernet card name and model number. Once you have identified the chipset you can recompile the kernel and modules for your specefic hardware setup. Try to find out also about any other onboard components such as video chipset, sound chipset and hard drive controller chipsets. These are all very likely built in and the performance may be improved significantly when you recompile a new kernel. What are you installing from? Since I see no indication of dialup connections to the internet via modem, I hope it is via cdrom not flopppy disks. You will need to have several applications installed in order to recompile the kernel. -- We specialize in multi-processor computing systems! John Foster AdVance-Computing Systems
