Can't get Mandrake7.1 to work with the Dell Optiplex 5133
built in 3C509B. The Dell and 3Com diags says it's fine. I tried
PNP on and off. IRQ is 10 and I/O is 250H. I see it in
"config.modules" and linuxconf, yet when I do "ifconfig" it is
not there and of course can't ping my IP. What's the secret?

thanks

What is the PCI ID of the device?

Have you tried an updated driver?
