Cool. I'll wait for the new package
And I should have mentioned this before but didn't my PCI smc9432 (epic100s) don't work I was going to mention it cause it is a fairly common card and I think it should be in the main kernel but forgot so don't make a special trip for it but maybe add it in the next update. -----Original Message----- From: Jim McQuillan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 2:01 PM To: Egan, Matt B. (Artco) Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] ISA NIC with LTSP 3.0.0 and DHCP update Matt, Ah, it looks like the smc-ultra is one of those nics that also requires the 8390 driver to be loaded, like the ne, ne2k-pci, 3c503 and hp drivers. This requires a change to the /linuxrc script in the initrd, to cause it to load the 8390.o module. I checked all the drivers, and I see that the wd.0 and the e2100.o drivers also need the 8390, so i've updated the ltsp_kernel package and I'm uploading to the Sourceforge site now. it'll probably take an hour or so for the package to appear on the download page.
