I just remembered that I had a similar problem with onboard lan with a k7-triton series mobo that had a RealTek rtl8100c lan chip. The only thing I could do was clip in a generic nic I had laying around.
It took a couple responses from our local Lug from people who also had this mobo to clue me in. That was a 2.4.24 kernel though. Maybe that chip ha better support now in 2.6. From my experience I'd suggest thatt you might check out your lan chipsets on google to be sure that no one else is having a similar problem and hopefully has found a solution. Also check to see that the chips are being correctly identified by hotplug. I once had an 8139too that was always identified as a 8139C++ by hotplug and I had to blacklist it and load it via /et/rc.d/rc.modules [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a darn nice person I don't care what anybody says! > Hi all, > > [excuse my 'english', french people here] > > I have 2 linux boxes with slackware 10.1 and 2.4.29 kernel: > - desktop :dell dimension 41000 (PIII 1Ghz, 384Mo) with 2 pci network-card > (8139too) : 192.168.0.1/24 > - laptop acer 1700 (PIV 2.6 Ghz 512 Mo) with integrated network-card > (sis900) 192.168.0.2/24 > > I build a little LAN with a X-RJ45 cable : auto negociation on the both > boxes, 100 MBit/s / full-duplex.
