etho not initializing
I have installed red hat 7.2 and the install went fine. The problem is I can not get the 3com3c905c nic to initialize. I see in kde contol panel under information the nic is recognized corrrectly and I am then going to network configuration. I am putting in the irq and i/o and I continue to get the card did not initialize check your settings. I have the bios set to manual for pnp, the cable is connected ok with green light, ok at switch. I have noticed that the nic does not appear on the irq list. I have tried other nic's , other slots,and they are picked up ok by kudsu, but I continue to have the same problem. I have also attempted to check the modules but I am not sure if it is loading properly, I tried insmod -f but I don't know what I am doing. I am stuck and could use help. I have tried to correct this and I am getting frustrated. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

try running this as root:
modprobe 3c59x # 3c59x is 3c59x :D check if the module loaded: lsmod (look for 3c59x) If its there, configure your network using this command: netconfig -d eth0 And then restart your network: /sbin/service network restart To check /sbin/ifconfig or ping outside sites. |
thanks
