Ok, so it sounds like I have to recompile my kernel with that stuff.
I'll have to look into how to do that manually (as Slackware doesn't
have very many automated tools, for better or worse)

I had similar types of problems on Gentoo until I recompiled it myself
or used the genkernel command.

If it was a firmware issue (does this card need firmware?) the error
would be different.

Subject: [909linux] Slackware 11 doesn't see my eth card on my HP
Omnibook

My default Slackware 11 install (2.6 kernel - huge26) doesn't see the
Intel 82801CAM eth card on my HP Omnibook laptop

It's a fresh install. This laptop has run everything from Red Hat to
Mandriva to Gentoo to (last install) Ubuntu.  All worked perfectly with
the ethernet card.

ifconfig doesn't show my card.

"dmesg | grep eth" doesn't turn up anything interesting.

And when I run "sudo /sbin/modprobe e100", I get

"FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.17.13/modules.dep: No such file
or directory"

Any ideas?

Roger
