Intel EtherExpress Pro/10+ with RedHat5.1 problem

Post by Xiaoqian Ch » Wed, 19 Aug 1998 04:00:00



I was trying to install redhat5.1 but it doesn't see my Intel EtherExpress
Pro/10+ card. According to the redhat tech support, this card should
work with eepro100 driver. Should I disable the pnp ? Can someone tell me
how to do that?

Thanks a bunch.

Check the documentation for the card , or use isapnptools . I have a
friend who's running such a card on redhat without any special install
options.

I've got many of those network cards, they do work fine under linux,
but the redhat tech is wrong.  Using softset (a DOS based program that
came with your NIC....if you don't have it, you can download it from
Intel's website) take the adapter out of PNP mode, set the resources
you want it to use, and use the eepro driver.  It doesn't autoprobe,
so you'll have to manually specify the IRQ & IO

1. Install Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/10+ ISA card on Redhat 6.1 ---Please help

Hi,

I installed RedHat 6.1 on my PC(dual boot 98/Linux). Everything is fine
exception the RedHat can't recognize my ethernet card( Intel
EtherExpress ISA Pro 10/10+). The card works fine in 98.

During the installation, RedHat couldn't detect my card at all. So I
tried to load it manually. I tried two ways:
1. I put ether=5,0x210,0,0,eth0 ( the conf in my 98) in lilo.conf, then
reboot the machine. During the boot, lilo couldn't start eth0.
2. I run lsmod, I found nothing there. I do have
/lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/eexpro.o file, so I said insmod eexpro. The
linux hangs forever. I have to power off the machine.

What did I do wrong? Please help!

Regards,
Michael
