This *should* list all network devices known to the kernel...

/sys/class/net contains only lo, the loopback adaptar. Please do not top post... You could upset some other members of the lists. Also I would not expect you to have those lines as you are not using a 3Com NIC. But you SHOULD have some indication that the kernel is loading the right code for the card. If not then the kernel can't "see it". Did you check your PC's BIOS? Alan It doesn't show anything about my network card, i browsed dmesg about 5 times now. I checked the bios but can;t find anything strange. Hi: I searched the kernel net drivers for rtl8139d. I found this driver in 8139too.c. I then searched for this driver in ../linux-2.6.16.27/arch/i386/defconfig and found this... CONFIG_8139TOO=y ( I assume your architecture is i386 ) I then looked at the subsection in the kernel config (file above) to see where this module comes from. It says... # # Tulip family network device support # Thus, in your kernel config for pci network cards, enable tulip support. I use the tulip driver too. In your sys log you will find... kernel: Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002) x32lfs kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKH] enabled at IRQ 6 x32lfs kernel: PCI: setting IRQ 6 as level-triggered x32lfs kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0b.0[A] -> Link [LNKH] -> GSI 6 (level, low) -> IRQ 6 x32lfs kernel: tulip0: no phy info, aborting mtable build x32lfs kernel: eth0: Macronix 98715 PMAC rev 37 at 0001d800, 00:50:BF:D8:F1:6F, IRQ 6. Or at least something similar. I don't know what that phy info stuff is about but i never noticed any problem with my card. So if i may be so bold to suggest, you have the wrong driver. Enable tulip support in your kernel config. If I am wrong, sorry to waste your time. Shawn. I'm recompiling my new kernel now, but i do not have time to test it right now, please hold on, i will test it later today. Thanks already. Tijnema
