Thanks for the quick reply. I tried modconf and selected rtl8193. I didn't include any parameters. I got an error message: "Device or resource busy. Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or irq parameters."
Any ideas? BTW, I checked the card and the link light is on, which kind of suprises me because I didn't think I had a driver loaded... Is it possible a driver was automatically loaded? How do I find out? If these questions are too basic, I would really appreciate a friendly pointer to the correct documentation... I have been going through a couple of manual docs, but they don't have exactly what I need. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Suffield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Andrew Suffield Sent: Monday, March 19, 2001 12:36 AM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: D-Link DFE-530TX+ via-rhine.o module On Mon, Mar 19, 2001 at 12:15:29AM -0800, David Carlile wrote: > Hi, > > I am extremely new to Linux and I hope I am not wasting bandwidth here, but > here goes. > > I have a D-Link DFE-530TX+ nic card that wasn't in the list when I > installed.

The + on the end of the name is significant - the DFE-530TX is a Via Rhine I or II, the DFE-530TX+ is a Realtek 8193. The modules are in the kernel-image packages. If you haven't built your own kernel you already have it.
