Re: Realtek rtl8029 PCI Network card installation

[Jason Gunthorpe]

I have one of these cards, it works fine with the standard NE driver, no
need for those files.

There are two techiniques,
   #1) Use 2.0.34 and enable the PCI NE-2k support and then either load
   the ne2k-pci module or compile it into the kernel
   #2) Use 'cat /proc/pci' to determine the IO port of the card and pass
   that to NE, ala, 'modprobe ne io=0x7f80'

I've used both with no troubles.

You do not need them.  First, make sure you installed the a kernel at
least version 2.0.30; use dselect for this.  I think the 2.0.33 or
2.0.34 are available now from ftp.debian.org or its mirrors.

Then, use modconf, net modules, ne2000 compatible.  Just install the
module, and pay attention to the messages of the installation.  If
everything is ok, you can use ifconfig now.

If this does not work, you can also take a look at the HOWTO Index, at
http://tech.buffalostate.edu/LDP/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX-3.html  See the
Ethernet HOWTO, it has plenty instructions, including special ones for
the Realtek.

I have 4 NE200 ethernet cards, one is a RL8029, but I don't 
remember, which one.

Maybe the PCI card ?  for this, I use io=0xFF80 and irq=12

for each other ISA card, I use the DOS program to configurate 
them in io=0x300, irq=10 or 11


Hope this help you

Thanks for responding.. my problems seem to lie in the fact that I don't
know what to enter for parameters during modconfig. What should I be
entering? If I leave it blank, it says auto-probing not allowed...
failed.

Thanx,
Miro
