Hi Everybody, thanx for the response.
So far Ive downloaded the 3c59x src and compiled it. I found version 0.99E,
couldnt find 0.99F so I hope version E is ok.
I compiled it, move the object file where the object drivers r, and
replaced it with the old.
I also did a depmod -a, and my conf.modules seems ok.
But how doI get the kernal to link in my new object file? I thought I had
to recompile something to get the OS to know
that I had changed one of the old object files.
Also is there a way to tell which version of a network ethernet driver that
is currently installed without having to look at the
source?
Hope you could understand my English, and what I meant :)
btw whenever I reboot into linux I get
eth0: Host error, FiFo diagnostic register fffff
like 20 times, then I get a message about a disabling code or somethign'??
Regards Ronny, the eternal noobie :P
