Re: network card on AMD64 installation
Hi,
Really i think that the system had a problem with some network cards or
some Motherboards, because I try to install debian AMD64 on my new MSI
K8N Neo4 that use nvidia nforce 4 chipset and Debian AMD64 didn't detect
any network card during the install process and after that. When the
system was installed I try to compile and install the nforce kernel
module downloaded from nvidia web page, but it don't install because
"the kernel version that was compiled is different from the version that
is loaded" and really I don't know why this if i used the kernel source
code and headers that came with the DVD iso.
After that i think "ok, let me disable the on board network card and use
other in a PCI slot" and fist I put a D'Link DFE-530TX that use the old
VIA chip set and Debian don't see this new card, then I change the
D'link by a 3COM 3C905B-TX and ok the system it recognizes that, but my
surprise is that Debian don't see the net, It can configure the card by
DHCP, I try to configure manually, but it don't see any other machine in
the network.
I know that all the hardware is fine because I try using other
distribution and all work fine, because it I think that the problem is
in debian distribution on some hardware configuration.
Thanks and Regards
Julian Bolivar
