are you sure you are loading the correct module because in kernel 2.4.XX the module name is "8139too" , unike in earlier kernel versions when it was "rtl8139" . If that is the case you might want to change this in your "/etc/modules" or /etc/modules.conf file . also you have to have CONFIG_FILTER and CONFIG_PACKET as yes ( Y ) ( networking opions )when you compile the kernel . cheers --- Jeremy Petzold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have compiled a new kernel with ACPI support to > get my sound working. > I was successful in getting my sound working (thank > you Max). but now, > as with other kernel compiles with diffrent > versions, I can not get my > network to come back up. > > my working kernel is the 2.4.18-bf2.4-xfs > > my dmesg from the new kernel looks exactly like the > dmesg from my kernel > working kernel (except for the ACPI stuff) > > is there somthing I have to do to get it working > after I boot a new kernel? > > I have a realtek 8139 ethernet chip. and I have > tried compiling the > driver into the kernel, I have tried making it a > module.
