Re: LNE100TX 2



Dan,
 
This NIC won't work with Redhat. It is one of the 5 or 6 NICs listed on the hardware compatibility list that are incompatible. When I tried I went to the Linksys site which provided a new tulip driver and said it would work. It didn't. Save yourself some headaches and get a 3COM.

I tried installing the RPM only to be hit with a series of errors claiming that there were conflicts with the Kernel and it didn't install.  I did it again, and forced it to install.  Now at boot up it doesn't tell me that eth0 failed, it just doesn't mention it at all.  Previous to this I have tried compiling all the proper files to make the new tulip.o and pci-scan.o, but when I ran the make command, it quickly listed errors and proceeded only to construct pci-scan.o.  I thought I might have had a bad install, so I reinstalled it, but the same problems happened time and time again.
 
I am running a Compaq Athlon 500, dual boot with RH7.0 and Windows 2000, on separate Harddrives.  Here is my listing from lspci
