RE: Debie Newbie



I'm roasted, done to a turn.

Thanx for the tip - the eepro100 module worked fine, however . . .

You guys still didn't give me a "straight" answer - 

Will the Redhat binaries work under Debian?
I thought I had the source packages installed - what do I need to check
so I can run the compiler?

Thank you.

Daniel

Yes - consider yourself roasted.

Either:
a) modprobe eepro100.  If this works (you'll see a little congratulatory
message if it does), go to b.

b) modconf.  Brings up a curses-gui app that lets you select modules to
be installed in the running kernel, and also adds their name to
/etc/modules for you, so that they are insmodded at the next boot.

Welcome aboard.
