Try changing your /etc/modprobe.conf file from: alias eth0 8139cp to alias eth0 8139too The log is saying that your hardware isn't compatible with the 8139cp driver and that you should try the 8139too driver. And the last bit of what you included above shows the 8139too driver identifying your stuff. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxx - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - "I'd explain it to you, but your brain might explode." - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
