[leaf-user] Module finder??
Hi all, Just wondering if a module finder service exists? Supposedly I have some sort of nic, which doesn't come with a linux module and the website of the manufacturer doesn't mention anything about linux neither. How would I go about finding the correct module? Does a list or search engine for such a thing exists? Or would I do what I usually do in Linux trouble and ask this or some other list? PS: It is just a hypothetical question, I am thinking about doing a presentation about leaf installation at work, and would like to find a nice solution for this problem. (Since I think it is the most difficult part in the installation if you don't have one of the standard modules included in most branches.) Kim Oppalfens MCT AZLAN -- Training ___ Have big pipes?

I usually use this website to find the correct module. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO-4.html I search for the manufacturer or the number on the chip.

Or learn how to cheat and user other Linux distribution's documentation. ;-) http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.2-Manual/ref-guide/s1-modules-ethernet.html A good source of network driver information is located at http://www.scyld.com/network/. Other packages are being arranged by Pattrick Noyes on the LEAF site. But no module locator function exists as far as I know.
