D-Link problems
 

Hi,

Having fun with Linux but not with my D-link ethernet card this is the problem :

It is not detected so this is what I have tried to do:

It is a D-Link DFE 530TX PCI Ethernet card with the VIA 86C100A Rhine II (and 3043 Rhine I) Chipset.

On boot up of SuSE version 7
I get three errors

1. KERNELD You almost certainly do not want to run this with Kernel 2.2.X ( I have Kernel 2.2.16 )

2. Eth0 FAIL and Eth1 FAIL

3. NFS Servnfssvc Not implemented FAIL ( I think this is if I want my computer to be a server from how the manual reads - can't you tell I'm a beginner )

Once I am in I call up YAST 1 and then type in my password I then choose from the options screen

SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION
NETWORK CONFIGURATION
NETWORK BASE CONFIG

Under Type of I choose - ETHERNET
Under Type of Device - Eth0 or Eth1
Under IP ADDRESS I Type the same as the one I use under Windows

Then I save using F10

I then choose
INTEGRATED HARDWARE into SYSTEM
CONFIGURE NETWORK DEVICE
and then I highlight NETWORK DEVICE TYPE
and choose Via VT86 c100A Rhine-11

after all that and re-checking the manual It is stll not loaded, I have even done the Xconfig from usr/src/linux and checked the Network options and the D-Link is highlighted.

Can anyone help me get this blasted card working, it works fine with the other OS.
