Chyeck out if you're on ISAPNP state. If you're unable to use
depmod/modprobe/(/etc/conf/modules - in RH) successfully, or anyway you
prefer the quick solution, switch your card to manual configuration. get
apropriate IO and IRQ settings (IIRC, you shouldn't have problem with
that... :-) by figuri
Well, you seem to become to meet one of the problematic problems with
Kernel 2.2 and ISA PNP.
You'll have to mess with ISAPNP and /etc/conf.isapnp files and you need
to insmod the module with the parameters of IRQ and address..
I haven't played with this for a long time, so I wish you luck.

sorry 'bout the card number.
The card is ISA, and the PCI is in auto.
and I tried both mandrake 7.02 and RH 6.1
I tried both to have the kernel with the appropaite module as a moudle
(insmod) and as a compiled into the kernel module (I looked at the
configuring of compiling kernel).

Well, you didn't give many details about your system:
1. You have a card call 3Com 509B and not 5098 :)
2. Make sure your BIOS setup for PCI is in Auto..
3. What Linux distribution do you use? do u see the module loads? what
/var/log/messages says??
Thanks

I want to configure my Linux box, and it doesm't work.
The pbolem is, I have a 3COM5098 Networking card, and a PBF-3 Asus's
Mothernoard. Somehow, whenever I try to ask netconf to work in DHCP, it
tells me that "netwrok device missing".
Anyone might help me find the problem?
