Unhappy kernel module for Realtek 8139


i use Realtek 8139 ethernet controller to access internet over lan, but during settings, by mistake in network configuaration thro' linux conf, i changed the kernel module for the adaptor. now i don;t know what was it previously. i tried all of them given in the list there, but eth0 fails to start.

i use RH 7.1 KDE

the card is working fine in windows.

it was not 8139 module earlier. i tried 8139 module from the list too, but it didn't work.

Hello

Its called 8139too.o
Try typing it into the linuxconf space for module, or edit /etc/modules.conf by adding
alias eth0 8139too
