Hi, I'm fairly new to Debian, but not new to Linux. In particular, I know about configuring almost everything, but not much about the Debian way of doing things.
I have a pair of Netgear FX-310TX NICs. (I'm uncertain of the precise model number; neither card has a model stenciled on the card.) The cards came in one of those networking kits; the price was right so I bought it. The card is a PCI card running the PNIC chip (marked LC82C169), which is a Tulip compatible. On a brand spanking new Debian 2.2Rev4 install, this card refuses to function. I get the following from the tulip module. * Device or resource busy. Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters including invalid IO or IRQ parameters I tested the card in another machine (SuSE 6.3 - 2.2.13 - using that installation's tulip driver with no options). It works flawlessly. I even switched the two cards. Still no go. The cards are good. Apparently my installation isn't. This is undoubtedly a silly thing. What am I doing wrong? Any suggestions?
