Ethernet Card D-Link DFE-530TX



Hi, I try since many days to let my Ethernet card work and I have some problems. Here my configuration : 

OS     : Linux 2.2.18 (Distribution Progeny, version 1)
         Windows 98
         Dual Boot using GRUB
Card   : D-Link DFE-530TX Rev. A.
Module : via-rhine.o 

Here the command with the associated errors : myHost:~/via-rhine# modprobe -d -v via-rhine
=============================================
Module via-rhine
kname via-rhine
objkey via-rhine
names: via-rhine
mode: NORMAL
Module matching via-rhine: /lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o
=============================================
/sbin/insmod /lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o
Using /lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o
Symbol version prefix '2gig_'
/lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.18/net/via-rhine.o: insmod via-rhine failed 

On the site
http://www.scyld.com/network/ethercard.html
it is specified that THIS driver is to be used with this sort of card.

I tried to load the module rtl8139, what didn't help. 

I donwloaded the new version of via-rhine and compiled it. 

myHost:~/via-rhine# gcc -DMODULE -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c
via-rhine.c
  /tmp/cc4wVgN8.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/cc4wVgN8.s:65: Warning: Ignoring changed section attributes for
.modinfo The driver via-rhine needs
pci-scan.


I tried to compile pci-scan and got the following error : 

myHost:~/via-rhine#
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c
pci-scan.c
  In file included from pci-scan.c:53:
  /usr/include/linux/module.h:21: linux/modversions.h: No such file or
directory


The file modversions.h can not be found. Somebody brought the same problem
in this mailing list. 

What do I have to do/check/download/compile/install/... to
let this Ethernet Card work ??????? W

hat about PCI configuration or IRQ configuration via BIOS ? 

The card works correctly under Windows 98. 

Thank you for your help.
Jean-Claude
