Hello All - am I not right in thinking that if I am trying to load the module for the network card that the 9.1 install failed to set up (yes, same problem as before), the syntax would be
# modprobe 3c509
?
That is the way that I do it and it seems to work.
I had fondly imagined this to be the case, but the command appears to have been seen as an instruction to 'lock the machine solid and refuse to allow any keyboard or mouse input'.
Sounds like a driver conflict.
Why don't I ssh in? Well you see the network card isn't recognised ... Bleh ...
Ouch! That sucks! I can relate. On my issue with Gnome, it freezes so bad that I have to do a hard reboot! Before you issue that command, list the modules already installed and see if a module is installed already. If so, remove it and try the modprobe command again. Marshall
