Upgrading Slackware 12.2 kernel - Slackware can no longer "see" ethernet card.

Hello

I followed this guide to upgrade my Slackware 12.2 kernel:

http://muaythaimaster74.blogspot.com...re-kernel.html

I upgraded to the latest stable kernel: 2.6.39.3

The computer is running fine. The system works. Its actually running a little faster than before. I guess thats because the kernel got compiled for my particular processor (Pentium III)

But i can't get a network connection, ifconfig shows only the loopback address (127.0.0.1)

I had network access before the kernel upgrade.

The ethernet card is a D-Link PCI, so it shouldt have good linux support.

Any help is greatly appriciated.

Kind regards Mads

Hi madsovenielsen, Please post the output from the following.

Code:
# lspci -v | grep -i net
# lsmod
Good luck. ;-)

Is that the complete output from lsmod? If so, I'm expecting more than just your nic isn't working. =D

Good luck. ;-)

Yes thats the complete output of lsmod

Everything seems to work fine.

Its just the NIC.

What should lsmod have, more than fuse ?

Wow.

I presume that lsmod is listing all the currently installed kernel modules.

How do i add kernel modules ?

I think the easiest way of solving this is to reinstall slackware 12.2, do a lsmod and save the output.

Then upgrade the kernel again and add the missing modules.

Would this be a good solution for this problem ?

Well, give this a try.

Code:
# modprobe r8169
That should load the appropriate module if it's available.

Good luck. ;-)

looks like you are missing your ethernet driver. Whenever one upgrades to a newer kernel one needs to know the drivers needed for their system for the new kernel to work
By running the huge kernel and doing a lsmod will give you an idea what drivers you system requires. For the new kernel to boot without a initrd will need the fs drivers and the hardrive drivers built into the kernel. all other drivers can be built as modules. hopes this helps

I just want the ethernet to work. all other stuff is running great.

I can't load the r8169 module.

go to /usr/src/linux and rerun make menuconfig. Look under drivers/net and try to find your network card driver, it may also be under staging drivers, once you find your driver make sure it is selected as a module or built into the kernel, then will have to recompile kernel again
