Uses the prism 2 chipset, or
maybe just prism, but either way its a standard (to myknowledge) chipset found
on linksys cards. So under normal circumstances you should be able to use the
tulip module to get this to work. But of course microsoft had to go in and put
in their 2 cents and screw it up for everyone. Apparently the I/O address built
onto the card was changed so you have to rewrite the tulip module manually in
order to get it to work. To begin insert the following line at line 201 (its a
function I beleive) of the tulip module source code (tulip_core.c)
" {0x1414,
0x0002, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, COMET}, "
save and do the following
commands.
cd /usr/src/linux**** #(**** = kernel number)
make dep
make
modules
make modules_install
do a restart and everything should be
ok
right now I'm using mine in slackware so I know it works.
--- I got this from
linuxquestions.org ... I tried doing this but no go, the network card is still
MIA - I tried downloading & burning the SRPMS images for Fedora 3 but I
can't boot from them - I'm going to download the other images listed on the site
& try them - does anybody know why I couldn't boot from the SRPMS images?
