RTL8139 issue
ok, i turned it on and off again, still nothing! how do i 'recompile the kernel with Local APIC support turned OFF'? i found this on a site: (so its not a modem, but it might work the same way) Plug And Play (PnP) Modems Most modems today are PnP and most will (with some effort) work with Linux. It's best to get one that has jumpers (shunts) to disable PnP. In many cases, if you simply set the jumpers for a certain COM number and IRQ number, this will disable PnP. You may also want (need ??) to disable PnP in your computer's BIOS. If you can't disable PnP then you may try: Boot Win95/98, configure the modem, and see if the settings are preserved when you boot Linux. If not, then: Boot Win95/98, configure the modem, and then warm boot Linux so that the settings are preserved. You can do this with the loadlin boot loader can i have a little more detail on how to 'warm boot' linux? and then i found something about forced hardware, where i force it to update the ESCD with windows, but the 'Use automatic settings' for it couldnt be enabled or disabled. i was thinking along the lines of, if i can go into linux, and fill in a bunch of information about it that i got from windows, it might 'force update' it. i also noticed, that when it does the PnP part of the boot, it doesnt mention anything about the NIC, just my crappy sound card, so it may not be the PnP! *is getting close to frusterated* _ -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

ok, i filled in my IP, Subnet, and default gateway, and it lets me activate the device! (and it works when it boots too) unfortunatly, its still not working, i get no light on the card, and i cant access any web pages. It doesnt matter if i fill in anything about the IRQ or memory or I/O or not. it was having a problem with DHCP. if i switch to another thing, like bootp or dialup, DHCP is greyed out, but i can still select it.

How are you trying to activate it? When you reboot, you should see a line Starting eth0 during the section where all the daemons start (charactarized by all the green OK's you see). Do you see eth0 starting OK? or FAILED? Let us know. Also give us some idea of what kinda system you're running.

Re: RTL8139 issue
Try (as root) lsmod (look if a kernel module containing 8139 is listed - if not) modprobe 8130cp modprobe 8130too - if one of the last works it's your setup that makes problems. (try the setup command at command line) Post a short summary about what you did to setup your card and include the error messages which occur! Please let me know if you got it working!

I have RTL8139 card from Surecom which I could not get working at all UNTIL I moved it to another PCI slot - it seems the card could not work in the slot I put it initially into; Since I have moved it to another PCI slot it work flawlessly. I have ABIT motherboard (Intel 440BX based). Could you possibly try to insert the card into some other PCI slot and check whether this helps?
