Hi!
I've got HP OmniBook 5700CTX (P166MMX) with 2.4.20 kernel
and I try to use 10/100Mbps Realport PC Card LG LPNCII-10/100
(Cardbus). This card is Realtek RTL-8139 chip based.
I use yenta_socket and 8139too module (8139cp does not work).
The problem is that I can load the modules, ifconfig the card,
but I can't even ping my not-mobile computer (there is Intel
EtherExpress PRO/10+ ISA - I use eepro module and everything
looks OK). I'm sure that cable and both cards are fine, because
if I run on the laptop Win98 I can ping each other.
I have tried several things but nothing works :-(.
Have you got any idea??
May be these infos will help:
first of all laptop IP: 192.168.0.12
non-mobile computer IP: 192.168.0.1
I know there are lot of stuff below, but I don't know where
to search for the hint even :-(
