People, I'm having a bit of a problem with a boxes. I would like to upgrade its network card from 10mb to 100mb. .... i put in the new cards and boot up. The system boots fine but gives errors against the network card driver load as of course the card has changed ... i edit conf.modules so that the alias points at the new driver module and the line in rc.config which had the module name in as well (right at the top i think it has something to do with loading modules v. early in the boot sequence....) .... when i reboot it still fails to come up properly appearing to load the old module still....? huh? ystem is a basic Suse 6.3 install and the network cards in question are cheapo realtek 8139 chipset ones. Also after its booted i can do a modprobe rtl8139 and the module will load (and gives a message in /var/log/messages indicating its found the card) but still wont let me start networking up (/sbin/init.d/network start). Has any one got a card with this chipset who can give any pointers? ============================================================= Tim Hempstead, tim@sevigny.demon.co.uk "Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea-cosy, dosn't try it on" - Billy Connelly http://www.sevigny.demon.co.uk/ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
