i want to get online with suse 9.1 personal but my ethernet card is'nt working.
Ok, I can’t get my Ethernet card to work on SuSE 91 personal kernel 2.6.4-52. I want to do an update to 9.1 pro via ftp but I can’t get my computer online to do it. I have a Realtek RLT8019 using NE2000 driver. I originally tried to do it through a manual install of suse. But when I loaded my card it asked me for the parameters for ne. The example it gave was io=0x300. I have all the jumpers set to jumper less. Now I want to just try to get online with the thing and then maybe I can do the update later. I’m using Comcast cable net with a Motorola modem. If all this can be done outside of the terminal using YaST2 I would prefer that rout but I am willing to let the terminal. Let me no if you need anymore data. I really am a novice at all of this so please be specific and I‘ll do my best to understand. Thank you.

ojasom; on that long list is a mention of acpi interpreter is disabled, acpi tables contain no pci irq routing entries
pci invalid acpi-pci irq routing table then toward the end of list u have address read/write mismaps 0 thru 5 three times do not know what that is but mis is not a good meaning. check those out! |
i'm sorry, i forgot to mention that this card is on an ISA port. i have a pci u.s. robotics modem that might be the problem. what about this stuff.

ojasom; that maybe where problem is, suggest using either ethernet or modem. that is what shows on ur output. both cards in conflict over irq`s.
use which ever is easiest to configure, than after u become more knowledgeable with linux u`ll know howto mount the ethernet card along with modem, if that is what u wish. undo what u have upto this point & just mount modem. |
okay, that's okay i don't really need the modem right now. how do i uninstall that and mount the ethernet card? and then how do i set up my account with comcast on my computer. i don't know how to use the terminal past cd / and other directories but if you can tell me how i would greatly appreciate it.

ojasom; read the readme,s ; howto,s & manuals. try this http://tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX find by scrollung to network card
installation section pertaining to Comcast. follow instruction step by step, carefully with comprehension. SLOWLY, Patiently! |
thank you, i'll try that and i decided to take a suse training course as well so i think i'll be able to get it fixed with a little patience. sorry i have been impatient. i've just been trying to do this for about a month now and it's been a little frustrating. i really appreciate you help and patience with me. thank you.
|
ojasom; U r welcomed! that is a good idea. apology not necessary am a newbie too learned the hardway. after the fact. now that i have mellowed
can pass on how not to, to others. since users before me helped me i follow in their footsteps, help others in need. thank you for that opportunity. |
also check the BIOs to see if you can change any IRQs \ Hardware address of either ~ might save you reconfgureing SuSe
