Re: Debian (Woody) bf2.4 network card problem

["Andrew Gilberto" <andrew_gilberto_67@hotmail.com>]

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. So, I'm not entirely sure what I should do with this 
information! Should I be able to find the tulip driver listed in modconf 
then? If so, that confuses me a little since the 3c59x driver is in modconf 
too, but fails to load.

If I shouldn't use modconf to use the tulip driver what should I use?

Thanks again for the help,
Andrew.
