[Please use your quoting the other way round. I like to read from left
to right and from *top* to *bottom* ]
As root do a lsmod. You get an output like:
lsmod# lsmod

smc-ultra is the module for my NIC.
- Shut down the use of the NIC
ifconfig eth0 down
- Change the configline in /etc/conf.modules
options smc-ultra io=0x300
Now reload the module
- Load the module
modprobe smc-ultra
You should see some output with tail /var/log/syslog
- Reenable the networking
/etc/init.d/network
I like Linux, no reboot :-)
Ciao,
Martin
