Comments/Problems:


Bought a Syba 10/100 PCMCIA network adapter.  Cannot get adapter to work
in Debian.  Tried older testing versions and the 2 March 2006 image of
testing did recognise the network adapter, LEDs came on.  Still the
adapter would not go online.  This older image would complain and
incorrectly use the 8139cp driver and tell me I should use the 8139too
driver instead.  Somehow I could not get that to work either, despite
trying the modules settings in /etc/modules.conf and /etc/module


The install went well until it got to ethernet configuration and it
refused to recognise any driver I used.  8139cp or 8139too.  Suprised
that this card will not work in Debian as I have had PCI NIC that worked
flawless.  It works in Xubuntu fine, but I prefer Debian anyday!


Thank you in advance.

John

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
