Hello Debian Users,
Does Etch (i386/i486) with the (standard) 2.6.18 kernel have a problem
recognizing (some) network cards?
I have a problem ever since apt-get dist-upgrade from Sarge to Etch. Etch
with the standard 2.6.18 kernel does not find/recognize my network cards.
Sarge (3.1) did and ran fine, Etch does not, and I even bought a new network
card (which has a different chip) and it still does not. Not even the
Debian installer from the CD1 ISO auto-detects the cards, or accepts my
manual selection.
I have NetGear FA311 adapters - the older one has the National Semiconductor
chip (DP83816AVNG) which worked fine with Sarge (2.6.8 kernel) and the newer
one has the Realtek RTL8139D chip.
Oh, what is sit0? When I give >> ifconfig -a I get the loopback and sit0
interfaces(?).
All advice/suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Robert
