fun with tulip not autoloading
i'm using
00:10.0 Ethernet controller: Lite-On Communications Inc LNE100TX (rev 21)
and for some reason the tulip module that runs it wont load by default.
durning the base install (via network) i didn't find it in the list of
drivers to add, so just to try something, i dropped into a shell and typed
modprode tulip
exit
and then i could configure network and go on my merry way. but after
rebooting it gave some network errors. it again didn't load tulip, so as
root i typed
modprobe tulip
/etc/init.d/networking restart
and it seems fine now. but for something that is going to be a headless
machine, this really isn't a workable solution.
can anyone dirrect me to what i need to change to fix it?
