FW: [newbie] network card detection
Hi, I have Mandrake 6.1 and just got DSL. I installed the network card before doing a clean install - its a Linksys Network Everywhere NC100 fast ethernet 10/100 PCI card. During install, the card was not be detected. I didn't have the service hooked up at that point - don't know if that makes a difference. I can't find a linux driver on either the linksys or network everywhere sites. I did find a section on linksys that says to download/compile/install tulip driver. But when checking network options in linuxconf tulip is there - I tried setting it up but still comes back with "failed" at detecting eth0. Suggestions ? Also, if I should follow the compile option, the instructions on linksys for the compile state to include a subdir that I don't seem to find - "/usr/src/linux/net/inet" - I don't see an "inet" anywhere. thanks... philomena

RE: [newbie] network card detection
OK - did that but still no detection - tried to explicitly load the tulip module and modprobe came back with "device busy" ? I don't have to do another install, do I ? That seems like overkill.. -Original Message- From: edward tharp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, April 02, 2000 12:36 AM To: "Newbie"@; Newbie Subject: RE: [newbie] network card detection MAKE SURE that in your bios setup pnp OS is set to "no way jose" --Original Message-- From: "philomena" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Newbie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: April 2, 2000 5:17:37 AM GMT Subject: [newbie] network card detection Hi, I have Mandrake 6.1 and just got DSL.
