Hi Ravi: 'lmc' is an open source device driver for PCI-bus WAN interface cards ! LAN Media Corporation or LMC (hence the driver name) cards contain a high-performance PCI interface, an HDLC function and either integrated modems (T1, T3) or modem interfaces (HSSI and SSI). Could you please post 1. relevant extract of the '/bin/lspci -vv' command ? 2. extract of the 'dmesg' command wherein ethernet controller is detected. With the above info, we can start taking a closer look ! thanks Saifi.
