by I recently acquired (for a *very* cheap price) two ethernet cards,
called:
"Netvin Fast Ethernet Adapter"
The driver disk under NT4.0 (cards work fine there) identifies the cards
as "FE100AM PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter"
The chipset is an ASIX88140.
I couldn't get Linux to recognise the card. Not very surprised, really.
Can somebody tell me what's the best procedure to follow when obscure
hardware (such as the above) is to be used in Linux?
I tried compiling the kernel with all PCI adapters available, but
nothing happened.
Thanks for your help.
