Hi,
I have 2 10/100 NICs (different models and brands) working fine under FedoraCore2 under a fresh install everything is working good with those two however, my third NIC which isa 10/100/1000 requires the linux drivers in order to operate. The card is a D-Link DGE-530T (
http://support.dlink.com/products/vi...tid=DGE%2D530T) I downloaded the linux drivers and extracted the contents of the tgz. In the included file of the drivers it simply states inside a txt file to do the following
3 INSTALLATION
================
Install linux driver as following command:
0. tar xvzf sk98lin.tgz, then goto sk98lin dir.
1. make all
2. insmod sk98lin.o
3. ifconfig eth0 up 10.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.0.0.0
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\ ^^^^^^^^\
IP NETMASK
So I attempt to do that the contents of the tgz are in a folder called sk98lin right on the desktop so I do
tar xvzf sk98lin.tgz /root/Desktop/sk98lin/
And then I receive no such file or directory... When examining that I see no sk98lin.tgz in the extracted folder so I figured the downloaded tgz file was really the file i was supposed to run the tar xvzf command on so I attempted the same thing as previously but withthe proper location and actual filename of the downloaded tgz.... still can't find the file..... inside the tgz along with the txt where I got the installation instructions from I see just a bunch of *.c files so am I able to compile the drivers a different way? I beleive I have all the development packages installed but am not very handy when it comes using the linux konsole........ thanks any help is appreciated.
