I've tried to load the module that friend Vineet suggested for my ethernet card. I did it giving no parameters (io, irq). I got the following error:
>/lib/modules /2.2.18pre21/net/via-rhine.o: init module: Device or resource >busy. > Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters including > invalid IO or IRQ parameters >/lib/modules /2.2.18pre21/net/via-rhine.o: insmod /lib/modules >/2.2.18pre21/net/via-rhine.o failed >/lib/modules /2.2.18pre21/net/via-rhine.o: insmod via-rhine failed >Installation failed So what is the problem? If I'm supposed to introduce the IO and IRQ parameters where can I get them from? Can I see it in Windows? Looking at the properties of the card in windows I see the following: Interrupt request: 11 Memory range: DE000000 - DE0000FF I/O Interval: E000 - E0FF So I guess IRQ=11 but IO equals to what?

You should use the via-rhine module. I don't have a stock kernel package lying around to check for sure, but I believe this module is included with the stock debian kernel-images, meaning you shouldn't have to recompile anything. good times, -- Vineet http://www.anti-dmca.org Unauthorized use of this .sig may constitute violation of US law. echo Qba\'g gernq ba zr\! |tr 'a-zA-Z' 'n-za-mN-ZA-M'
