How can I confirm that I have support for 3c509 ISA ethernet card configured in my SuSE Linux V8.2 system.
Yast2 does not recognise the card I have fitted.
Can I manually configure the card ? through Yast2.
I don't know about current times, but in the past, to make Linux see 3c509 cards, you needed to run the DOS setup program (I forget what it was called; you can probably still download it from 3COM's web site; failing that, I could probably scrape together a copy & email it to you) and disable the "plug & pray" feature of it. After doing that, they always worked like a charm. I most likely have at least one of them running on SuSE 8.2 at home in a least one machine. -Nick -- <<< There is no spoon. >>> /`-_ Nick LeRoy The Condor Project { }/ http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~nleroy http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor \ / nick.leroy@linuxmail.org The University of Wisconsin |_*_| 608-265-5761 Department of Computer Sciences
