Hi buddy,
The card id D-link DE220 ISA PnP. Its using io port 300 and irq 5 under windows.
I've tried installing it on Linux usinf the same setting. The point to note here
is that it is not PC specific. I've about 3 diferent PCs on which Linux is
installed and on all the 3 PCs, its failing to configure.
But the moment I put an Ne2000 Compatible card it works !!!
Any solutions ???
