Re: new Kernel 2.4 missing Old Tulip module ?

2001-01-03 Thread Nico De Ranter
The structure of the /lib/modules directory has been changed in 
the 2.4 kernels so I guess the modutils can't find the correct kernel module.
(try lsmod, it should list all modules that are currently loaded)
I don't know how to fix this however (see my previous mail :-)

 P.s. I have tried the DECchip Tulip (dc21x4x) PCI
 support' and it work ok with my Netgear card most of
 the time, except it locks up the eth0, if there was a
 few minutes of network outage.
 
 Example: The upstream network has outage for 10
 minutes and the Netgear will lock up eth0 even the
 network backs on. I have to manually use ifdown eth0
 and ifup eth0 to brings it up.
 
 
  
  It is still in the kernel, look for the Generic

new Kernel 2.4 missing Old Tulip module ?

2000-12-30 Thread Jack O Max
I found that the new Kernel 2.4 does not have the 
Old DECchip Tulip (dc21x4x) PCI support.

My 1 year old Netgear FA310TX does not work properly
without this module.

Any suggestion to solve this problem?


Thanks.
Have a Happy New Year.
