Hi!
After having now successfully compiled my new 2.0.38 kernel with all the
necessary modules I tried insmoding via-rhine, which I hope is the correct
module for (out of /proc/pci):
Bus 0, device 9, function 0:
Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies Unknown device (rev 6).
Vendor id=1106. Device id=3043.
Medium devsel. IRQ 7. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=118.Max Lat=152.
I/O at 0xe000.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xfa000000.
ifconfig -a shows the eth2-interface:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:C8:E4:83:E9
inet addr:0.0.0.0 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:0.0.0.0
BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0
Interrupt:7 Base address:0xe000
and the syslog looks ok

but
bash-2.03# ifconfig eth2 192.168.2.1/24 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Resource temporarily unavailable
and it doesn´t show up in ifconfig (without -a) nor is it ping´able.
Any hints for the dump&stupid like myself?
TIA,
