I didn't, but I couldn't see that a network was up, or a way of shutting
it down if it were up?  Please explain further.


My processes running are:-

I looked at an ifconfig and got:-


lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Bcast:127.255.255.255  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:3584  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)



The via-rhine.o is the file from toms add-ons directory:-

-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        12164 Oct 22 10:21 via-rhine.o



The error I get is:-

insmod: init_module: via-rhine: Device or resource busy
Using /tmp/via-rhine.o




Thanks,

Mike
