O.k. I figured out how to get the card working.  You need to download the
driver from Intel and install it (follow the readme).  Here is a link to the
driver download page
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df/Detail_Desc.asp?strState=LIVE&Pro
ductID=820&DwnldID=2896  It would be great if mandrake would include this
driver so that the install routine can do it automatically.  Now I just have
to figure out how to get the network started at boot.  Right now, even
though I have used drakConnect to tell it to start on boot, I have to insmod
e100 to get it to work (minor inconvenience, but...)

Subject: [Cooker] Beta 3 - network card setup issues eepro 100


I have just installed mandrake 9 beta 3 and can't get the built-in ethernet
card in my toshiba satellite laptop configured.  During installation, I get
the following error message:

"insmod'ing module eepro100 failed at /usr/bin/perl-install/modules.pm line
379"
Then I am told that install "Found Intel Corp.|82551 QM Ethernet Controller
network/main interfaces."  I tell it there are no more devices to be found
and it says "An error occurred No network card found"

If I try to configure from within DrakConnect, I get a similar message:
"insmod'ing module eepro 100 failed at /usr/lib/libDrakX/modules.pm line 54"

Does anybody know how to get this card working?  I'm new to this, so any
help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
brian
