I have a system running RH7.2 that has 10/100 Intel® Pro integrated network
card.
I have been trying to bring that up under Linux for quite some time now ( I am
about to give up)
First of all, I hope eepro100/e100 is the right driver for this card. I forgot
where I had seen that info.
insmod fails with a init_module: No such device
I had found out that the IO of the card is 0xd000 and then also tried putting
the line options eepro io=0xd000 after the alias eth0 eepro in the
modules.conf file. I also tried telling explicitely to use IRQ 10.
I also tried an 'autodetect=1'
In one of the combinations I also had the following messages in dmesg
eepro_init_module: Probe is very dangerous in ISA cards
eepro_init_module: Please add "autodetect=1"
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
