My network card

["Caracal - G. Hostettler" <caracal_gh@bluewin.ch>]

Dear Ariel,

 

I wrote a small "survival guide" about this kind of config.

You can get it at http://www.caracal.ch/linux/survival/survival.html

Try the good old tulip or rtl8139 drivers.

I hope it helps.

Subject: My network card

Dear Friends:

 

I've bought Potato 2.2 about 6 months ago, and now I have the chance of using the software.

 

I managed to install the software but it did not recognized my network card.

 

I've got a Compac 5363 machine, K6 processor, with an Accton SMC1211TX (PCI) card, and an ADSL interent connection.

 

I installed software from Roaring Penguin (www.roaringpenguin.com) and it is working fine, but I only need now to setup the linux kernel in order to allow it to recognize my card.

 

I downloaded the attached file, which is a sort of driver, but when I tried to compile it, many errors appear.

 

Could somebody give me some instruction to help me with this matter?

 

Kind Regards
