I would recommend compiling support for your NIC into the kernel. _________________ Quis separabit? Quo animo? |

Yeah, but he's trying to install; he's not gotten that far yet.
What does "lsmod" say? _________________ I don't believe in witty sigs. |

You loaded the module I guess, however it doesn't setup your device.
If you use a DHCP server, try
dhcpcd eth0
or otherwise follow the install instructions.
Good luck |

Don't you need to raise it first if modprob comes back fine you should then do a 'ifconfig eth0 up' to bring it up just because you loaded the module doesn't mean you have brought it up. |

man ifconfig says:
Code: |
OPTIONS
up This flag causes the interface to be activated. It is implicitly specified if an
address is assigned to the interface. |
So, no, you don't need to do that. _________________ I don't believe in witty sigs. |
