I just installed Debian 3.0r1 on a Gateway Solo 2500 with a Xircom RealPort Cardbus Ethernet 10/100 + Modem 56 (RBEM56G-100)card in it. During the install, it failed to setup networking as it claimed there was no adapter present. I finished the install from the CD and logged in as root. Running dmesg, I see this:
tulip_attach (device 20:00.0) tulip.c:v0.91g-ppc 7/16/99 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (modified by danilo#cs.uni-magdeburg.de for XIRCOM CBE, fixed by Doug Ledford). eth0: Xircom Cardbus Adapter (DEC 21143 compatible mode) rev 3 at 0x400, 00:10:A4:FB:53:D2, IRQ 10. eth0: MII transceiver #0 config 3100 status 7809 advertising 01e1. Then, lspci gives me this: 20:00.0 Ethernet controller: Xircom Cardbus Ethernet 10/100 (rev 03) But ifconfig only shows a loopback adapter. Obiously, the system "sees" the card, but it isn't be used. How can I fix this problem/ TIA, Jon
