Detecting 3COM ISA NIC in Redhat 9?


The problem I have is getting this 3COM 3C509B-TPO ISA network card to detect. What command would I use to check if Redhat has detected it. If there's not a command how would I get this card to detect and then install?

thanks
marshall

usually kudzu would detect it

for pci devices, you can type /sbin/lspci in the terminal and it will list them, not sure if it would show ISA or not though

check these sites for more info:

for hardware compatiblity:

http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/

check here for commands on how to install the card and such:

http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/

hope that helps.

It's the one called 3C509B-TPO on this page.
