Hi all. A "cable modem" has just been installed on my computer, and I would like to use it under Linux:
1) The card that was installed on my computer is a 10base-T (twisted pair) ethernet card -- "Intel 82557-based PCI Ethernet card". Does the Linux kernel currently have a driver for this card? On a fresh install of Debian, I did not see a driver for this card listed in the driver configuration portion of the install ... 2) The cable-modem hookup supports dynamic IP-address assignment (though I'm supposed to get the same IP address each time the modem powers on). Is there a way to get the Linux ethernet support to "read" its IP address, say, at boot time? Thanks (very much) in advance for any info. :-) -- Harmon -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
