[newbie] V7 : Not recognising my Netgear ethernet card but has 'configured ' another

2000-04-12 Thread David . Clark



Hi folks

I have Linux up and running but no networking (or sound but I'll save that for
another day).

If I run up DrakConf and look into the Hardware config (Lothar) it shows the n/w
card as a 'Lite-On Coomunication Inc LNE100TX'. I actually have a NetGear
FA310TX  which may or may not be the same card as this under the covers.
However the I/O address and IRQ values are both -1 which suggest something is
wrong. Also if I try to select another card using the Config tool the only
NetGear card in the list is highlighted, again with values of -1 and if I click
OK nothing changes.

In the Network Config, if I pick the Basic Host option, the 'help' suggests I
run a menu option to configure the network but that option is just not there.
I'm OK with IP addresses etc as I used to run AIX systems.

I ran the pnp utility but it claims to find no PNP cards.  I looked at the
Ethernet Howto but it looks very nuts  bolts compared to the rest of the V7
install.

I think I just need info on how to get the system to configure and use the card.
Interestingly the hub shows the card as active!

Many thanks for considering this.

Circle gets a square... to paraphrase what ever that game show is.

and to para-phrase the lady on cnn..

Isn't it amazing what the international community can acomplish when it
pulls it's head out of it's a$$.


I mean really.
It shocks me that we can acomplish this and people are still starveing ,
and bathing in the same water they (well you know) in..

 I am in the computer field and know for a fact that if we
hadn't made the
 changes, our systems would NOT have worked.  We are working
with 10-20 year
 old code and they didn't even imagine that the programs would
still be in
 use come 2000.

  Yes that is true, but it has been said that somewhere along the
  lines we all
  lost a year, so is it the year 2000 or the year 2001??  who
  knows, all that I
  know is that the media hype about the Y2K bug, looks like it turn
  out to be a
  big money making scam...
 
  Anybody else agree?  Example:  three days ago a friend of mine
  heard on the radio
  that some fool went and purchased and re-wired his whole
house, to on run
  generators for the Y2K blitz!!
 
  HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!

   millennia is 1000 years, there was no year "0", so 1 AD through

a pattern
   forming?) and the third millennia starts 2001.  Just some food for
   thought...

I've heard all the arguments about the new millenium not
  starting until
1/1/2001, but I think we should all compromise, and make the
  entire year
   of
2000 a celebration of our miraculous survival for two
  millemia. This way,
   by
the end of the year, no one will care when the third
millemium starts.
   
The finest the new millenium has to offer to all,
