Re: [PLUG] Adding new ethernet card to Sun20 running debian



Oct 31 19:16:24 gibraltar kernel: sunlance.c:v2.00 11/Sep/99 Miguel de Icaza
(mi
guel@nuclecu.unam.mx)
Oct 31 19:16:24 gibraltar kernel: eth0: LANCE 08:00:20:72:f3:7a
Oct 31 19:16:24 gibraltar kernel: eth0: using auto-carrier-detection.
Oct 31 19:16:24 gibraltar kernel: eth1: LANCE 08:00:20:72:f3:7a

Someone suggested that I do a modprobe bigmac, which failed.  Might I have
an hme card?  Does anyone know anything about mixing hme and eth cards?  I
did an apt-cache search bigmac with no results.  Where would I find those
drivers?

I will continue to Google.  Thanks for the advice so far!
