Re: eth0



Two questions :
. is you kernel a 2.4 one ?
. is your card a cardbus (I mean 32 bits) ? 

I guess both answers are no but want to be sure.

With kernel 2.4, cardbus are managed (in a better way) by hotplug.
If you have a cardbus ethernet card (I am currently using one) I will
consider upgrading the kernel to 2.4.17.
