Hi everyone!
I Have a debian potato distro with 2.2 pre18 kernel. I'm trying to give acess to internet to my linux boot, through an realtek 8139 ethernet card. I had problems to make it work on my win98 boot because an IRQ sharing conflict between SB live! card and the ethernet card, but now they work just fine under windows, which seems to discard a hardware conflict.
Now im trying to install netscape, and it just seemed fine, but when as a user i tried to run netscape, didnt happened much. Then i went to /usr/local/netscape and tried ./netscape, and then i did that he said to me:
error in loading shared libraries: libstdc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
so after a while i learned that netscape seems to have some issues on linux with libc (to me it seemed to be the problem) so i went to
http://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/GCC/ but there are at least 20 files, how do you know the right one?
on the other side, to tackle the ethernet problem, i did what in most forums about this issue come as a solution:i did as root;
modprobe rtl8139 alias eth0
and when i did lsmod there it was(OK?) with an (unused) tag. also did the cat/proc/pci to check, and yes, also appeared there, using IRQ 11.
when on X-windows, from the menu i select
apps->net->lynx and it says that there is no connection, that is, although the device seems to be where it has to be, i still dont have a connection.
Some body can help this hopeless newbie?
thk SO MUCH in advance.
