safeway lancard/mycom surecom Network adapter problem
 
I have installed red hat 8.0
and have a Safeway Lancard SW PCI
and I want to have access to the internet.
Im not very good at linux
but I folowed the instructions I got with the disk
i typed in the following in the console as root
with the files in the same folder

Installation:

1. copy the source code fealnx.c to Linux,

2. compile the source code, the instruction for compiling the driver is
as follows:

#gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c fealnx.c

3. insert the driver as module,

#insmod fealnx.o

4. bind your card to an IP address

#ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask ${NETMASK}

5. add your card to IP routing table,

#route add -net ${NETWORK} netmask ${NETMADK} eth0

6. now, you should be able to ping local network.

but nothing happens or there comes up a huge amount of errors
like I said Im not very good at linux yet
aren't there any tutorials how to do it
I have search the web for info on how to intall the card but didn't find any usefull
also in the configcentral the computer finds a network card but it's name is MYSON SURECOM EP-320X-S
which one is it?
