I'm running 2 Realtek 8029 and 1 Tulip card and worked great in the old P100 system and when moved to the new system I had problems with 1 of the 8029 cards having weird conflicts.
Though I would still use them anyway, I've heard people make comments about Realtek cards being bad but I've never had problems until now (and it's probbly because I'm using the same HDD from the old machine moved to the new one.. so you'd expect some trouble).... -----Original Message----- From: Dean Hamstead [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 20 November 2001 8:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SLUG] Multiple NICS under Linux >>Also afaik there're problems with the NetGear FA311s with 2.4.x ? and >>people have suggested use of FA310s instead.
