|
|
i have the next 2 network cards
Code: | Ethernet controller: Marvell TEchnology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller |
i have been trying to load module for the Ethernet controller "sk98lin" but not working.
If there is other one pls tell me!
Code: | Ethernet controller: nVidia Corporation nForce2 Ethernet Controller |
i cant find a module for this one
Tryd modprobe forcedeth
i tryd install with out network but failed at "pciutils" cause these files need to be downloaded, i have no floppy drive or extra cd-rom so cant download the drivers.
Can anyone tell me how to solf this or what i do wrong
Greetings,
Sjengstah |

i think the new module for the marvell yukon is "skge", and forcedeth is the correct one for an nforce2 onboard nic. did you get any errors when you did this?
also, i'd assume you're still in the setting-up stage. did you try to net-setup the appropriate device? what exactly doesn't work? what's the output of ifconfig -a? _________________ "Confident, lazy, cocky, dead." -- Felix Jongleur, Otherland

so, what doesn't work exactly? you can't ping? you don't get anything via dhcp? can you ping yourself? is the thing *up*? well, jus post the output of "ifconfig -a" and we might be able to help you better
EDIT: ah well, good to hear skge works _________________ "Confident, lazy, cocky, dead." -- Felix Jongleur, Otherland

you're right, maybe we should just start a thread with a checklist for this... actually, i think i'll start one just now, there's tons of "my network doesn't work" threads spawning just now...
