Re: Reconfiguring Ethernet Card



 Hi 
    You can either modify your conf.modules to include  driver for ne or recompile the kernel with support for  ne alone
  I am providing relevent lines from my conf.modules here with for your reference
   alias eth0 ne
   options eth0 io=0x6300 irq=0xB
  Replace  Io and Irq as reported  by  /proc/pci
 ( cat /proc/pci and see the entry corresponding  to your ethernet card)
 This will work only if Your kernel supports  ne module Other wise You need a kernel recompile.
  Also please try to have a look at Ethernet-HOWTO
                  --------

 Actually the ne-2k-pci driver is supposed to support this particular card It may be a bug . In fact I tried to send this bug to ne-2k-pci home page
But the mail  bounced
