Re: Debian 2.2 and Linksys LNE100TX - problems



I have the same card.  It needs the newer tulip.

Install w/o network cards
install the kernal src and c/c++
take the tar off the driver disk that came with the card
build according to instructions from vendor
copy tulip.o and pciscan.o (scan-pci?) over those in
/lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/net
manualy and the alias in modules and insmod the modules
:)
