The card is made by General Instruments. The TV cable does go into the back of the card. In my house, we have only 1 cable box, and that's in the living room. My linux box is in my room. So there's no cable box within 25 feet of my computer. I read the cable-modem mini-HOWTO and it says that linux supports my ISP (MediaOne). The HOWTO says that it will detect the card, then use DHCP to talk with the 'net. I can't even get Linux to detect it. Debian won't detect it on boot, so when the boot prompt comes up, I type: linux ether=11, 0x300. This does not work either. Any ideas?
Might be unrelated, but I think that no spaces are allowed in arguments; i.e., "linux ether=11,0x300" is more correct. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
