Subject: Problem with list...
I can't seem to post messages to this list regardless of what address I
send to.
confirm that the linksys is indeed using the right driver, if the driver
is wrong(or too old, check for updates) it will give that error. doesn't
always mean there is an IRQ conflict or i/o conflict.
you can get most of the updated NIC drivers from:
http://cesdis1.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/
na
another thing to try is yank out the eepro card and see if the linksys
becomes eth0, if not then it is for sure not a conflict.
im thinking its a driver thing, outdated driver or the wrong driver, i
dont have experience using the ne2k pci cards so i can't really advice
