onboard cards support on Redhat 9.0
Hi Guys!
I have p4s533 asus motherboard the linux redhat 9.0 does not recognize onboard lan adapter in BIOS its on in Windows its works if somebody knows what to do thanks in advance |
onboard netcard is not enough information
you need to know what chipset its using. type dmesg or lspci and paste the results back |
its has sis900 lan adapter
sometimes its recognize it sometimes its does not i have AHT-e300 modem connected to the sis900 the modem has dhcp server,its has 10.0.0.2 static ip i cant ping modem from my comp i cant get ip from its dhcp server may the porblem is sis900 driver? |
in WinXp all works ok
|
i think(read guess) problem is with the dhcp
do you power the modem on before the pc or after the pc starts? |
i always start modem first
i saw in win the comp has pppoe connection to modem may be something wrong with pppoe setting under linux redhat 9? may be something wrong in TCP/ip stack setting ? |
ok
next time this happens type the following commands mii-tool ifconfig record the output and post it here |
thanks
|
most welcome, let me know how it goes, my guess its either
1. dhcp client not running proeperly 2. cabling problem, these 2 commands will help diagnose it |
> ifconfig -a
