You may find this useful : http://www.scyld.com/network/ethercard.html. Also, it seems that this card uses same chipset as the DLink DFE-530TX (VIA Rhine) so you may find that a search on this card provides more English results. M On Tuesday 07 August 2001 3:10 pm, Ron Sinclair wrote:
OK. It's a Laneed LS-10/100AL PCI. It's a japanese manufactured card. I tried to find as much info as possible online but almost all the sites were in japanese. I found one site that showed how it could be used with TurboLinux (big distro in Japan)...the site was in japanese but commandline instructions were in english (linux commands are universal...thank God!). I only got this card to work using TurboLinux and I HATE that distro with a passion!
What may help is that on the chipset on the NIC, it says "VIA VT6102"

The NIC was working for a time and then it stopped for no apparent

I'd not tinkered with it since it was working (if it ain't broke, don't
fix
it). Been having alot of Suse problems lately, not just this one. Got pissed enough to where I wiped it off one of my systems and replaced it
with
Slack 7.0. I no longer have NIC problems and am learning how to
administer
a bare system. :o)
The reason I included the history is because I can't stand when a poster doesn't include enough information for people to help. I'm not one for trading 20 emails on one problem. Also, working with NICs is much more elaborate than anything else on a computer system, even in Windows. I
felt
the information I provided was pertinent to this situation.
