Hi all,
I have still trouble with my networking and Fedora. I hoped FC4 would solve definitively the problem but, actually,
things get worse!
So, my Intel 915GEV m/b ships with a Marvel Yukon 88E8050 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (SK98LIN driver).
lspci returns:
04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8050 Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 17)
Either FC3 and FC4 doesn't not recognize automatically that device.
Moreover Network Configuration has a "SysKonnect SK-98xx Gigabit" adapter but configuring new device
I get the following error "sk98lin device eth1 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization."
In FC3 I solved the problem downloading driver and installing as new module.
In FC4 the same installation returns:
...
Check kernel header version (Kernel:2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp == Header:2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp) [ OK ]
Check kernel functions (Changed: nothing) [ OK ]
Compile the kernel (error) [ failed ]
An error has occurred during the compile proces which prevented the installation from completing. Take a look at the log file install.log for more informations. Installation of sk98lin driver module failed.
install.log says:
+++ Compile the driver

+++ Compiler error
Then I plugged in a PCI Wireless adapter (USR805416 model) and tried ndiswrapper 1.2 with different drivers.
Driver is loaded, hardware results present but I got always the same error modprobing the module:
...

Bad luck? Incompetence? I don' know but I'll appreciate any help! Thanks
