I tried adding the line alias eth0 8139too to /etc/modules.conf as sugested in the documentation under kernel-src/Documentation/modules.txt but it didn't seem to do anything. running "ifconfig eth0 up" or "ifconifg eth0 192.168.0.1" returned eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device Is this supposed to work or is it a bug in the documentation. Also, the file still instructs running kerneld which according to the decription of the kernel module loader (KMOD) in the kernel configuration isn't used anymore. Is this a documentation bug, and if so, where do I file it?
I am using kernel 2.6.0-test1 thanx
