Annoying Network card
First off, thanks to those who have been helping me on
getting @home to work with linux here. really really
appreciate it :)
While I think the network settings are correct, my
problem now appears to be the network card. HEre's
what I have.
The only card that apparently works with AT&T @home is
a Farallon PN593, shows up in Windows 95 as a PCI
Ethernet DEC chip 21041 Base Adapter. According to
the Ethernet HowTo the Farallon cards can use the
3C509 driver. the DEC chip set can use the de4x5 or
the tulip drivers.
The 3c509 driver doens't appear to work, oh well. The
De4x5 and the tulip "appear" to work in that they pull
the right IRQ and the like.
But, when it tries to initilize the network stuff (i
think that's the right word) it states that it can't
locate the "eth0" module/port/device/whatever you call
it.
Can anyone give me some suggestions on how to get this
fixed? appreciate it, thanks a lot all :)
