Re: [expert] nic card
That card should be using the dec Tulip driver. I bought a box of 10 of those little buggers and have had a few problems getting them to work in my linux workstations, but here is a link to the thread on the kernel mailing list that talks about it. http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/9903.3/0171.html On Fri, 5 Jan 2001, Moe wrote: > hey guys, > i'm reinstalling 7.2 mandrake and the installation > is asking me about the network card. > > my card is a netgear 10/100(pci). > > Should I skip this part and go back after installation > and try it again? > > I tried pretty much all drivers on the list and > nothing. > > thx, > moe > > __ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo!

Re: [expert] NIC card RedHat 6.1 vs Redhat 6.2 LNE100TX - EtherFast 10/100 LAN Card
I am having the same card, using Mandrake 6.0. I had problem with the card when I installed it. I downloaded the driver source from Linksys and compiled as module and everything worked. I am not sure what is the problem but I made it work. Hope this helps.
