Hi,

We have SuSE 7.0 GA with the 2.2.16 kernel and a iucv connection.
I downloaded all the necessary files and updates from IBM Developer's Website, 
compiled the 2.4.7 kernel and installed the new kernel image according to Rob van der 
Heij's kernel upgrade instructions.
I should mention that I compiled Fast Ethernet module support into the kernel because 
now I would like to access the OSA card.
The iucv connection is not there, but I can still access the server via 3270 sessions.
I editted /etc/modules.conf :

    echo 'alias eth0 lcs' >> /etc/modules.conf

                    and 

I setup the channel device layer:

    echo noauto > /proc/chandev
    echo lcs0,0x250,0x251,0,0 >> /proc/chandev
    echo reprobe >> /proc/chandev
    lsmod lcs
The card is searched for, but error says    
"/lib/modules/2.4.7/kernel/drivers/s390/net/lcs.o: init_module: No such device"
When 'cat /proc/chandev', message says 

0x0004 0x0250 0x10  0x1731 0x01  0x1732 0x01 0x80 0xfcffffffffffffff  no    no         
                                                                     
0x0005 0x0251 0x10  0x1731 0x01  0x1732 0x01 0x80 0xfcffffffffffffff  no    no

Does it appear that the card is being detected as a Gigabit Card (0x10)?
How can I get this card up?

Regards,
Darren
