This installs the module into the module.conf file so when you re-boot the module gets loaded. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 6/20/2000 at 11:45 AM Joe scribbled: Good day friends, I did a modprobe 3c509 on, it went ok... irq10, i/o 0x300 etc and after that I configured my network setting using the DrakConf... set-up my host name, IP and all... it works but not for long and not permanently. when it worked, i can ping the server, itself and other PCs on the LAN but when I rebooted everything is gone again. I did modprobe again... now, it says i/o error... this got me confused... really confused. it's so easy to configure this thing in Win95/98/NT/2000... when it comes to Linux... i'm lost and confused. checked almost every book there is, but it seems the writer are more interested in successfully installed Linux with everything configured during installation then after. How do you configured a newly installed device in Linux i.e. Ethernet card, MPEG card, etc. Thanks!

I suggest writing down the exact I/O, IRQ (using whatever method you like to retireve these #'s )from Windows and using those parameter's in Linux. If the card works in Windows, it will work in Linux (with the right I/O, IRQ). HTH Jaguar "SJN" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dear Linuxers, I'm using Linux Mandrake 7.0.

Re: [newbie] ETHERNET CARD PROBLEM
Hi Mark, Thanks for the advice. On the video card, during installation, I've set to 640x480 at 8bit color depth. I thought as long as the X will start I can troubleshoot anything later after successful installation. Now, my display is at 1024x768 at 16bit color and suprisingly it works... however, it still refused to work on 800x600 at 32bit color. I suspect this could be the sync problem. I guess there's more research I need to do on this. On the Ethernet card, which flavors of Linux do the same way as ms-win? And how to set the IRQ manually on Linux? Thanks Have a nice day.

I've had a few like this at work with a Win 95 machine and I know of some NT applications are like this. So it would surprise me to find a flavor of Linux doing the same thing. :) as for your Video card and the display troubles you're having. That's somthing that you're very likely going to have to play with for a while to get it just the way you want it. I worked (wrestled) with mine for a good hour this afternoon before I finally obtained the desired results. try setting the color depth a little lower. -- Mark I love my Linux Box...
