Hi,
I'm thinking to get a ethernet card for my PC (PCI) and I'd like
to know which is a better supported NIC card for Debian/Linux.
I'm interested in getting 10/100 Base-T card.
Secondly, please show me how to configure the kernel/software to
make use of the NIC card. Thank in advance!

Hello all,
I have a couple of questions... What is it exactly a "core dump"?

Trouble?
Good observation...I had not noticed the $startup. Also, the reason I was
