3c905 driver installed, but not in ifconfig??
I have a 3com 3c905 Ethernet card that I can't quite get to work. I have
turned _OFF_ the
PNP OS option in my bios btw. :> I recompiled the 2.0.35 kernel including
Network
support, and the 3c59x driver as a module. When I boot in Linux, the
driver loads fine,
says it detects the card at IRQ5(which is correct), and the rest of the
info looks fine.
However, when I log in and type 'ifconfig' the only device listed is the
Local Loop Back,
and I can't ping an IP... it says "Network Unreachable" With the eth0
interface not in
ifconfig I don't find this surprising... Any ideas on what I can try to
get it up and
running? Thanks.
