Re: need help in installing nic drivers
>From my expreience with Dell's computers they need a special version of
e1000 module. one of my clients uses only Dell computer's and they sent
him a version of this module (he only uses red-hat), but I think they've
also sent him the source. you can ask your dealer about that, and if he
can't help let me know and I'll try to get it from him.
Good Luck.
