Hi guys, I have to identical Intel 100mbit network cards in my workstation. Just one was plugged in and picked up DHCP when I installed, and configured itself accordingly. I'm not trying to make the second one talk via a crossover cable to my notebook. But I cannot get the interface up.
# ifconfig eth1 up eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device When I restart, I get a similar message. My /etc/network/interfaces: auto lo eth0 iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 # lspci -v: 00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c) Subsystem: Intel Corporation EtherExpress PRO/100 S Desktop Adapter Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 169 Memory at fb800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] I/O ports at a000 [size=64] Memory at fb700000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Expansion ROM at fb600000 [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 00:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 0c) Subsystem: Intel Corporation EtherExpress PRO/100 S Desktop Adapter Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 177 Memory at fbb00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=4K] I/O ports at a400 [disabled] [size=64] Memory at fba00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=128K] Expansion ROM at fb900000 [disabled] [size=64K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Any ideas what might be causing this weird behaviour? Normally with two identical cards the module (e100 in this case) picks them both up automatically. Thanks Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
