Ok, look in the syslog if the "natsemi" module is loaded by "hotplug", if yes put it in the /etc/hotplug/blacklist. You should find in the log why the "ne2k-pci" isn't loaded too. To include the messages at boot in the syslog, change the /etc/default/bootlogd file. Andrea -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
