Re: Dysfunctional ne (RTL8019AS)



Thanks for your replies...

I set "PNP OS" back to "No" in the BIOS (setting it to Yes was what
seemed to fix the problem last time, weird...), then I reserved IRQ's 3
and 4 for serial, 5 for my NE2K, 12 for PS/2 mouse (when I get round to
fixing that one again), and booted GNU/Linux again. The RTL shifted from
IRQ 12 to 11, and the NE appears to work fine on IRQ 5.

I guess the BIOS just configured the network card better than it was
configured when it left it for GNU/Linux. Makes sense.

Thanks,
Hugo van der Merwe
