Best NIC for RedHat 7.3


Hi all,

I have a machine with RH 7.3 installed, and I need to buy a NIC for it.

I'm not real familar with loading drivers on linux, and I hoping to find a car that the kernel recognizes at bootup.
2 questions:

Will RH 7.3 recognize a new card by itself?

Any advice for an easy card to install?

thanks in advance,

HC

Change Release to 7.3 and Class to Network Devices.

Any 10/100 NIC from NetGear or Linksys or 3Com, etc., should work.

thanks, I think I will try the 3c905 card, since that seems pretty popular.
