3com NIC card configuration
Hi, i'm a newbie at Debian and i'm trying to install it now on a dell
computer but i'm running into the following problem:
i'm in the process of installing debian linux 2.2.12 through the cd
installation which came with
the "Learning Debian GNU/Linux" book published by O'Reilly. Once i get to
the part of the installations
where i'm installing the NIC card for the computer, i'm not sure what to do.
the computer has a 3com 3c920 Fast Ehternet
Controller (3c905c-TX compatible) card. I did a search on the web and alli
could find was a
page saying that 3c905c-TX should use the 3c59x module. It is not clear to
me how to get my ethernet connection working. Can anybody tell me how i can
go about
in installing the module so i can connect to the internet. The book say i
should choose the
'dummy' module form the 'net' category, but i did not find this module in
the ns category, but i did find
the 3c59x module but i'm not able to go through with the installation. Any
ideas? Thanks, carlos
