Hi,

I have a new USB PCI card and its drivers. Now when i insert the USB PCI card in PCI slot and restart linux, Linux is not detecting it, it hangs may be it is not getting drivers. Can somebody tell where will i copy this drivers so that linux will detect new hardware?

Regards,
dinky

open a terminal and type 'dmesg -c'
insert your device and let things settle for about 10 seconds
type 'dmesg' #without the -c

This should give you some debugging info about the device. Google the information provided to try and find more information on your problem.

If you like, post the output and I'll see what I can find.

See if there is problem
These are the logs when i did like this:
