Greetings, I have been using RedHat 7.4 on an IBM Thinkpad A21m for several years without any issues. I decided it was time to upgrade, so I loaded FC2. However, the laptop's NIC appears to be unsupported. (This appears to be related to Bugzilla report 81422.) A Google search shows several similar reports about this problem, but none seem to have a solution. Here are the specifics: > lspci -v > 00:03.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c556B CardBus [Tornado] (rev 20) > Subsystem: 3Com Corporation: Unknown device 6356 > Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11 > I/O ports at 1800 > [virtual] Memory at f4101400 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128] > [virtual] Memory at f4101000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128] > Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 > > 00:03.1 Communication controller: 3Com Corporation Mini PCI 56k Winmodem (rev 20) > Subsystem: 3Com Corporation: Unknown device 6159 > Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11 > I/O ports at 2000 > Memory at f4101c00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256] > Memory at f4101800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128] > Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 > ip -o link show eth0 > 4: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000\ link/ether ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Also, the 3c59x driver is clearly loaded. Based on the Bugzilla report, I gather that something broke between RH7.x and RH9... (any idea what?) and appears to not have been fixed to date. Any ideas what I need to do to get this card working?
