Re: On-board lan. SOLVED (at least for ASUS mptherboards).
I searched with google for the strings "broadcom 4401" (thats mainly the
lan chip on newer asus motherboards with i845xx chipset). On some sote I saw
a help for a redhat 8.0 user, where somebody said that he should take the
driver from the asus suport cd-rom, and compile (or recompile, I don't
remember) as a kernel module, and insert it with insmod.
On the asus download site I saw this driver download. It takes 16MB in a
zip file (I don't understand why asus provides a linux driver in zip
format), I haven't downloaded yet, but I guess it's a source code. I can't
imagine a driver for a Lan device with a size of 16MB :-))
