[rhn-users] ES 3.0 on Acer Travelmate 620 hangs

[Espen Ekeroth]

I have temporary solveld the problem by using the PCMCIA card, but will look
into this problem now. I do however wonder:

Is it possible to install other drivers than the drivers included in the distro?
How?

( I do now how to select drivers for my card, but how to install more drivers?)

With other hardware (HP/Compaq proliant) and older versions (RH 7.x) I had to be

carefull which driver to install for the nic. Check your hardware supplier for
which driver to use and optionally supplied drivers.

On the other hand, check the nic you use and if/how it is supported. The
RH-supplied dirver is not always the best.
