Hello all,
few days back i pluged in 2nd NIC on my Slackware 10.0 machine. Initially it did not recognize it......means although it was showing its entry in
but ever after configuring it through
Code:
#vi /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
ifconfig eth1 was throwing error
Code:
root@bond:~# ifconfig eth1
eth1: error fetching interface information: Device not found
root@bond:~#
but somehow ( i really don't know how, b'coz i didn't did anything ) it started working.
Then due to some reasons i reinstalled Slackware 10.0 yesterday. Now again i'm facing the same problem.
Now the entries of lspci are:
Code:
root@bond:~# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82810 GMCH [Graphics Memory Controller Hub] (rev 03)
00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82810 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller] (rev 03)

01:0d.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
root@bond:~#
Now what i did, i removed both of them and then inserted them one at a time
when i pluged the "MYSON" one, during configuring it said
Quote:
|
A network card using fealnx.o module has been detected
|
and that time running
was showing this modules entry in it.
then i repeated the whole procedure for "Realtek" card, it said
Quote:
|
A network card using the 8139too.o module has been detected
|
Now i plug the "MYSON", with "Realtek" already plugged in.
but now its not detecting the "MYSON".

You can see that its showing the module "8139too" only and not "fealnx.o" ( which it was showing when only "MYSON" was plugged in )
so what i tried to do now is to add the module "fealnx.o"
Code:
root@bond:~# /sbin/modprobe fealnx.o
modprobe: Can't locate module fealnx.o
root@bond:~#
Now what should i do ???
one more thing i tried.
#make xconfig
and then loading the ".config"..........then i was checking for ethenet cards.
i'm quoting few lines what i thought as relevent.
