Hello everyone.

Red Hat 9
Linksys NC100v2
Celeron 566mhz
192MB RAM

(If you want more info, just request it, I have all the detailed system specs)


I'm a linux newb, just installed it today. I'm trying to get my network adapter hooked up, linksys nc100v2 . I've searched around and notice I need the tulip driver. I tried to download the rpm (from scyld) but couldn't download it. Anyone know where else I can get tulip? Also, I was wondering if someone could kindly give me a more in-depth tutorial how to compile tulip and install it so I can get my NIC working.

Or, if you know of any other alternatives?

the odds are incredibly high that the driver already exists on your machine and is perhaps already loaded and working, for the moment, please stop trying to add what is most likely already there, instead can you describe the problem with your network adapter and what led you to believe you needed to add a driver for it?

If it's definitely tulip you need andRed Hat hasn't figured it out you can try adding

alias eth0 tulip

to /etc/modules.conf

If your looking at the graphical setup network thing whatever it is, it I'll be called "dec clone" or similar but it should definitely already be there and shouldn't require any downloading as mentioned
