Slackware installing integrated lan adapter
Hi,
I have a little prob. with getting Slackware to recognize the integrated LAN adapter. it doesn't appear to be recognized at startup. I have tried other distros in the same box and all have worked fine with the hardware., such as fedora, opensuse , mandriva, so there should not be a problem with the drivers. The lan adapter is integrated to an intel 945g motherboard, in a Gateway GT3020m. And I'm using Slackware 12. Thnx in advance. |
Can you show us the lspci output for the device please?

# lspci -v | awk '/Ethernet/' RS=
03:08.0 Ethernet Controller: Intel Corporation 82201G (ICH7 Family) LAN Controller (rev 01) Subsystem : Gateway 2000 Unknown device 5049. Flags : bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11 Memory at 50014000 (32-bit non-prefetchable) [size=4K] I/O ports at 1000 [size=64] Capabilities : [DC] Power Management version 2 :) |
Try a "modprobe e1000" and see if that helps.

Yes it worked,
thanx a lot! :) |
Are you sure the module wasn't loaded already? If it's not loading automatically, you'll want to add "/sbin/modprobe e1000" to your /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.
