I understand this is the mailing address for Debian GNU/Linux questions. I hope this is true.
I am a new debian user. I'm having a problem getting my ethernet adapter running. My hardware platform is an Intel Pentium-S 133MHz. Originally I had an Intel EtherExpress 16 adapter and and after installing Debian 1.1 it seemed to work except that it would often lock up the system during ftp etc. I found in the Linux ethernet HOWTO that this driver had a problem. It also said that the EtherExpress Pro/10 was supported so I begged a co-worker to trade adapters with me. I'm now running with the new adapter but I cannot install the driver. I get a "Initialization of eepro failed" message. I tried "linux ether=5,0x300,eth0" command at boot time but it didn't seem to help. BTW, this adapter is working fine under Windows-NT. Can someone help me? Thanks, Ed -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
