Hi there,
I have an Intel Ether Express 16 ISA card and I'm trying to get it to
work with linux. Linux seems to detect the card ok, but after detection
on boot up I get the message:
eth0: TDR reports transceiver problem
The dos diagnostics program for the card indicates that everything is
OK, and it seems to work fine with Windows 98....I have included my boot
message,...followed by the result of ifconfig...
Any help is appreciated,
Thanx,
Manuel
