Well, this got the network card
going!....Get the updated Install-8.16.tar driver from the Marvell www site
and, after fighting some other hiccups here and there ( I found that the option
1 install worked), install this updated driver! Once in place the first
step of recognizing/registering this hardware device is possible and then the
network service activation can follow. From: Glenn Tober
[mailto:glennt@xxxxxxxxxxx] I have a nice new Asus motherboard and have easily installed
FC3. However hiccup number one is that the aforementioned Ethernet card
is not recognized and I can not seem to get any hardware configurator I try to
recognize it. The hardware browser is blind to this PCI-E chip. The
adapter shows up in an lspci but that is about it. The driver is supposed
to be SK98lin but it is never auto loaded. When I modprobe it I can
detect no response or life for an ethx of any kind in /proc/network/sk98lin.
My FC3 (2.6.9-1.667) seems to have V6.23 sk98lin driver while the Marvel
website has a V8.16 version. I suspect, however that getting a newer
version driver may not do much. Can anyone give me any easier way to get
this driver going without having to do the k-compile thing (which you might
guess, is tedious without www connectivity) |
